Introduction

This guide is meant to be used as rough guidelines for when dungeons can be reasonably completed. We leave it up to you to decide yourself if you are ready or not. Many of these dungeons can be completed with lower stats and lower tiered equipment than shown, but that could mean the clear time of the dungeon would be significantly slower or have much more chance of killing your character.

DR%(Damage Reduction %) is a stat often overlooked by new players as not many low level armors provide it. DR% is very helpful to have early on, allowing you to complete dungeons with lower health levels. And it is an absolute necessity for survival when you are tackling the most difficult dungeons Melvor has on offer. DR% is most easily accessible from upgrading Armor to (G) eg. (G) Steel Helmet.

If you would like to make sure you are able to survive, there are great tools created by our community available at Spreadsheets and Theorycrafting.

Chicken Coop

Mumma Chicken (monster).svg Chicken Coop is the easiest dungeon available in Melvor Idle. It doesn’t offer much in the way of a challenge or rewards, but it is a good introduction to dungeon mechanics. While it is possible to complete Chicken Coop with no prior investment in your combat skills, we recommend at least familiarizing yourself with combat mechanics before tackling this dungeon.

Dragons Den

Dragons Den (dungeon).svg Dragons Den is the first big step up in difficulty over previous dungeons you should be familiar with at this point. Many players grow to loath Dragons den as the low drop rate of Twin Exiles and Ancient Crossbow force them to continue clearing the dungeon longer than they would like. From here forwards, using equipment with DR% is an absolute must along with AutoEat 3.

Volcanic Cave

Volcanic Cave (dungeon).svg Volcanic Cave is often the first of the more difficult dungeons players will attempt. With Fire Cape being a guaranteed drop and a big upgrade for the cape slot players will look to complete a single clear of Volcanic Dungeon as soon as they are able.

Volcanic Cave is the only source of Ancient Melee Armor needed to attempt the God Dungeons. The Cave is also a good source of Gold for those who don't want to rely on skills for Gold Generation.

Air God Dungeon

Air God Dungeon (dungeon).svg Air God Dungeon is your first dip into the God dungeons. You will need to complete at least one run of each God Dungeon before you are able to progress to the next. The following Stat and Equipment recommendations aren't enough to safely idle Air God dungeon but they will allow you to get your first clears while paying attention. Expect to be here for 20 minutes plus per run, so make sure you have enough Food, Ammo, Prayer points and Potions to last.

Making use of Stone Skin Prayer and Damage Reduction Potion I+ can help boost your DR% stat enough to begin idling safely.

Notes
Magic is your toughest choice for clearing Air God Dungeon. Your DR% counts for less and the many ranged Monsters get bonus damage against you. You would need to be using Stone Skin and Damage Reduction Potion IV to even think about idling Air God before you get your own set of God armor to help you out.

Water God Dungeon

Water God Dungeon (dungeon).svg Water God Dungeon will be your next step through the God Dungeons. If you stuck with Air God Dungeon until you got a full set of Aeris God Armor you'll have an easy time gearing for Water God Dungeon.

Ranged is going to be your best option against Water God, the dungeon is filled with strong magic monsters. Once again, the following armor sets are enough to survive Water God Dungeon if you are manually eating to keep yourself alive but you'll need some upgrades if you want to idle them safely.

Notes
Magic is not your worst choice going into Water God Dungeon, there are a couple of melee monsters thrown into the mix and you are on equal footing with the magic monsters. It still takes quite a high DR% stat to be able to safely idle this dungeon but you are at least able to take full advantage of any God Armor drops you receive. If you can creep your Accuracy rating over 20k, Slicing Winds and Gust are game changers.

Earth God Dungeon

Earth God Dungeon (dungeon).svg Earth God Dungeon is often regarded as the easiest of the 4 God Dungeons. With how strong Magic is against it, You will surely see much faster clear times than you have experienced in the past 2 God Dungeons.

If you got each armor piece from Water God Dungeon you will have no trouble with Earth God Dungeon at all. Other wise using the armor sets below will clear Earth God Dungeon while manually eating.

Melee is on equal footing going into Earth God Dungeon, there is a single nasty Magic user thrown into the mix you need to watch out for but other than that there are no other surprises. While it is Technically possible to raise your DR% high enough to idle Earth God Dungeon, it is still risky and ill advised.

Magic an easy choice going up against Earth God Dungeon. Fast clear times using Ancient magics means you should be in and out of here faster than any other God Dungeon. With a few upgrades on the above Armor set you can be idling this dungeon safely.

Fire God Dungeon

Fire God Dungeon (dungeon).svg Fire God Dungeon is the last God Dungeon and currently the most difficult dungeon to complete in Melvor Idle. Combat style choice is more important here than any previous God Dungeon, make sure you have done your homework before attempting to slay Ragnar.
