This article is about the Golbin Raid minigame. For a guide to progressing through the minigame, see
Golbin Raid/Guide.
Golbin Raid is the first permanent minigame added to Melvor Idle. It is intended to be a fun distraction for those who want to take a break from the grind, offering unique rewards exclusive to the minigame.
The minigame is specifically designed to be fair for everyone, at any level of the game, as such there is no advantage to having high level stats or items.

Shop
The Golbin Raid minigame has its own shop, from which the player can purchase various upgrades in exchange for Raid Coins. All purchases made within this shop will only impact the minigame, and will have no effect on other areas of the game.
Raid Coins
The number of Raid Coins earned increases with the number of cleared waves. The amount of coins earned for a raid with [math]\displaystyle{ \text{wave} }[/math] waves cleared is given by:
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Raid Coins} =
\begin{cases}
3 \times \text{wave} \times \left \lfloor 2 + \frac{\text{wave}}{4} \right \rfloor \times \left \lfloor 1 + \frac{\text{wave}}{15} \right \rfloor & \text{if wave} \ge 3 \\
0 & \text{if wave} \le 2
\end{cases}
}[/math]
where: [math]\displaystyle{ \left \lfloor x \right \rfloor }[/math] is the floor function.

The cost of skipping waves also increases with the number of waves, where the cost of skipping wave number [math]\displaystyle{ \text{wave} }[/math] is given by:
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Skip Cost} = \left \lfloor 100 \times \left ( \text{wave} + 1 \right ) \times \left ( 1 - \text{Skip Cost Reduction} \right ) \right \rfloor }[/math]
where: [math]\displaystyle{ \left \lfloor x \right \rfloor }[/math] is the floor function.
Where [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Skip Cost Reduction} }[/math] is 0.01 multiplied by the number of times the "Reduce Wave Skip Cost" upgrade has been purchased, up to a maximum of 0.5.
Ammo
If Ammo is chosen during the selection phase, two random options will be offered alongside an option to increase your existing ammo. The quantity of Ammo offered increases with the number of cleared waves, can be increased by purchasing the Ammo Gatherer upgrade within the raid shop, and is a random amount between [math]\displaystyle{ 1 }[/math] and the maximum quantity:
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Ammo Max} = 25 \times \text{wave} \times \left ( 1 + \text{Raid Shop Multiplier} \right ) }[/math]
Where [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Raid Shop Multiplier} }[/math] has an initial value of 0, increasing by 0.05 for each time the Ammo Gatherer upgrade has been purchased.
Runes
If Runes is chosen during the selection phase, two random options will be offered, and a option to increase your existing ammo. The quantity of Runes offered increases with the number of cleared waves, can be increased by purchasing the Rune Pouch upgrade within the raid shop, and is a random amount between [math]\displaystyle{ 10 }[/math] and the maximum quantity:
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Runes Max} = 25 \times \text{wave} \times \left ( 1 + \text{Raid Shop Multiplier} \right ) + 9 }[/math]
Where [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Raid Shop Multiplier} }[/math] has an initial value of 0, increasing by 0.05 for each time the Rune Pouch upgrade has been purchased.
Food
If Food is chosen during the selection phase, three random options will be offered. The quantity of Food offered increases with the number of cleared waves, can be increased by purchasing the Food Bonus upgrade within the raid shop, and is a random amount between [math]\displaystyle{ \text{wave} + \text{Raid Shop Bonus} }[/math] and the maximum quantity:
[math]\displaystyle{ \text{Food Max} = 12 \times \text{wave} + \text{Raid Shop Bonus} - 1 }[/math]
Where [math]\displaystyle{ \text{Raid Shop Bonus} }[/math] has an initial value of 0, increasing by 5 for each time the Food Bonus upgrade has been purchased.
