Melvor Idle Presents: Atlas of Discovery!
The second major expansion from our friends at Melvor!
Two new non-comabt skills have been added to Melvor Idle! It’s time to get into Cartography - and Archaeology!
Cartography is all about discovery. You’ll have a massive interactive World Map of Melvor, but it’s covered with a blank hex grid. Your task is to survey the Map and slowly uncover what lies beneath. As you train the skill, you’ll discover many locations, rewards and bonuses that can be used throughout the game - and there are over 100 locations to discover!
Archaeology begins with the Grand Museum of Melvor calling upon you to locate and donate all the hidden Artefacts across Melvor. Artefacts have a variety of uses, including rare and unique equippable items for all stages of the game. To dig for Artefacts, you must first discover the locations of Dig Sites in Cartography. Then you’ll create Dig Site Maps to begin your Artefact hunt. There are over 160 unique items to locate in Archaeology, spread across 18 Dig Sites!
Both skills have a maximum skill level of 120 in this expansion.
Oh, and that's not all - a third official game mode is making its way to Melvor Idle - Ancient Relics Mode! Plus, you've got new combat areas, Slayer areas and dungeons. Collect over 600 new items, battle 46 new Monsters, gather 9 new Pets, use 17 new Unholy Prayers and explore exciting new skill upgrades in the Shop!
Melvor Idle: Atlas of Discovery is available now on Steam and mobile platforms.
