FAQ: Difference between revisions

:A: Yes. {{PetIcon|Finn}} provides +10 maximum HP, and {{ItemIcon|Dragonfire Shield}} provides +30 maximum HP. Also, some obstacles in {{Skill|Agility}} can increase your maximum HP. If you have purchased the [[Throne of the Herald]] expansion, you can level up Hitpoints to 120, to a max base hp of 1,200.

:A: {{ItemIcon|Bird Nest|Bird Nests}} have a 0.5% chance to drop every time a tree is cut. This chance can be increased with by various means, listed on the {{Skill|Woodcutting}} page, under [[Woodcutting#Skill Boosts|Skill Boosts]].

:A: Get all the boosts you can from [[Woodcutting#Skill Boosts|Skill Boosts]]. You are trying to get your interval rate to the 0.25s minimum, while earning multiple birds nests per action. This can reduce the grind to about two days.

:A: You will wan to catch fish with a short catch time and high special chance. {{ItemIcon|Raw Seahorse}} is currently the best special item chance for least catch time, although {{ItemIcon|Raw Skeleton Fish}} are almost as quick and are much more useful as they can be buried for [[Prayer|Prayer Points]].  

Q: Can I pass cook while training other skills?

:A: A purchasable upgrade in the shop lets you automatically equip produced food. Check the toggle button at the top of the Cooking page.

:A: {{Skill|Cooking}} has many buffs to increase the hp healed/hour you can produce. Try to decrease your interval, while increasing your preservation, doubling and perfect chance. Using passive cooking will create even more food. Pre-expansion, the most efficient cooking method for mid-endgame accounts is cooking chicken soup active, and whales and carrot cake passive, including gathering time.  

 

:A: Only mining Expansion rocks has a chance to add health to the Gem vein. They have no natural regeneration. For Meteorites, performing actions in Astrology has a chance of adding Meteorite health. You can earn meteorite health even before you have the mining level required to min it.

:A: Make sure you have the required combat levels to wear it. If the gear required over 99 smithing to make, it comes from the [[Throne of the Herald]] expansion and required you to complete [[Impending Darkness]] before wearing it.

:A: Yes. If you died when {{Skill|Thieving}}, you will be notified when you enter Melvor Idle. To avoid this, make sure the target's max hit is below your auto eat threshold.

:A: No, but you can purchase {{ItemIcon|Weird Gloop}} from the shop and use it to increase your harvest.

:A: Astrology was reworked in v1.? and no longer has RNG modifiers. Instead, now you spend stardust to permanently level up stars.

:A: In the [[Throne of the Herald]] expansion, you can find meteorites in astrology. This will add hp to your meteorite node in mining, even if you don't have the mining level to mine it yet.  

:A: Without the expansion, levels only have a mechanical impact up to 120, past that Virtual Levels must be turned on in [[Settings]] to keep track. Virtual Levels are a purely visual change allowing the player to see their experience level past 120. After [[v0.15]], Mastery levels are hard capped at 99.  

:A: [[Mastery]]] is a secondary system of levels tied to individual items within a skill. Each item in a non-combat skill has a level associated with it. You earn mastery experience for an item by gathering/crafting it. You also earn mastery xp towards your mastery pool for the skill, which unlocks perks at certain checkpoints.

===Shop/selling===

Q: Why is <X> so expensive in the [[shop]]?

:A: As of v1.1.1 the only ingame way is to get the item again and turn in off in the cog menu in the bank. You can use a console script to clear your menus using the method [https://www.reddit.com/r/MelvorIdle/comments/z853u2/i%20made%20a%20script%20for%20cleaning%20quick%20equip%20menus/?utm%20source=share&utm%20medium=web2x&context=3 here.]

Q: How did I get this expensive ring/crown/jewel drop? Should I sell it?

:A: You can receive these items very rarely while training your skills or in combat. Do not sell your only copy of them. For details look at the pages for {{ItemIcon|Signet Ring Half (a)}}, {{ItemIcon|Signet Ring Half (a)}}, {{ItemIcon|Circlet of Rhaelyx}}, and {{ItemIcon|Jewel of Rhaelyx}}.

:A: {{ItemIcon|Gold Topaz Ring}} is an item which is given to the player in place of an {{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring}} piece, when the requirement of wearing a {{ItemIcon|Gold Topaz Ring}} is not met. See {{ItemIcon|Signet Ring Half (a)}} and {{ItemIcon|Signet Ring Half (b)}} for more details on how to find the {{ItemIcon|Aorpheat's Signet Ring}}.

:A: Currently, no native way exists. You can use this code to clear all Bank Tab icons.

game.bank.tabIcons.clear();

for(let i=0; i<12;i++) game.bank.renderQueue.tabIcons.add(i);

:Q: I just bought a Superior Skillcape, but it's not showing up in my Quick Equip menu.

Q: How do I unlock a pet? I am over skill lvl99 and still don't have it!

:A: [[Throne of the Herald]] is Melvin's first expansion. It raises the skill level from 99 to 120 and adds lots of new enemies, dungeons, and hundreds of new items. You can buy it on the steam store or as an in app purchase on the iOS or Android apps.

:To back up your save, go to the character select screen, and tap on the settings button on the save slot you want to back up. Then, tap any of the bottom three options. The "create shareable URL" option is most convenient, this will copy a short URL to your clipboard. Now you can paste this URL somewhere safe, like a notes app that has a cloud sync. I recommend you leave yourself a quick note next to the URL to mark the date or any other identifying info for later.

:How often you back up your saves locally is a personal decision, but I would suggest at least once a month. While cloud saves are great, it is possible to accidentally overwrite your cloud save and lose significant progress.

Q: My [[Hardcore]] character account was deleted!

:A: A lot of people find Melvor through word of mouth, so sharing it helps the community grow. If you want to help in more tangible ways, you can purchase the full version on mobile or a copy of the [https://store.steampowered.com/app/1267910/Melvor_Idle/ Steam version]. Alternatively you can support the game through [https://www.patreon.com/melvoridle Patreon]. You can also purchase the [[Throne of the Herald]] expansion. However, it should be noted that Melvor will never have microtransactions.
