Hunting in Melvor Idle 2

Hunting is officially confirmed as a Melvor Idle 2 skill: the 20 November 2025 official devlog lists it among the skills being prototyped for the sequel as "Hunting (new in MI2)" (official devlog). Together with Ranching and Beastcrafting, it is one of the skills created for Melvor Idle 2 rather than carried over from the first game. Hunting is not named on the official Steam store page as of 14 November 2026, and its training mechanics, produced items and related monsters are Not yet confirmed by official sources. The official demo announcement names only Astrology, Herblore and Agility as the skills left out of the demo, so Hunting is not among the named exclusions (official announcement).

How to train Hunting

Not yet confirmed. Officially confirmed so far is only that the skill exists and is new to Melvor Idle 2 (official devlog, 20 Nov 2025): no official source has yet described how Hunting is trained, what it produces, or which level requirements and XP rates apply. This wiki does not guess training routes or publish invented XP tables.

Training routes, XP rates and the fastest path from 1 to 120 are Not yet confirmed: no official source has published hunting XP tables or level requirements yet, and this wiki does not estimate numbers. The maximum skill level in Melvor Idle 2 will be 120 (Steam official); at the Early Access launch on 17 November 2026 (Steam official) the cap will be 99, and the current demo caps every skill at 60 (official announcement). See the release date overview for the Early Access timeline.

Compared to Melvor Idle 1

Hunting has no Melvor Idle 1 counterpart — the official devlog marks it "new in MI2" (official devlog, 20 Nov 2025), and the Melvor Idle 1 wiki's skill list (game version v1.3.1) contains no Hunting skill (based on Melvor Idle 1, may change in 2 — here it confirms the skill is new). Note that Melvor Idle 1 has a separate skill called Harvesting; it is a different skill from Melvor Idle 2's Hunting, and we do not treat them as the same.
