Introduction: The Meley Dungeon

The Meley Dungeon is one of the most demanding group instances in Metin2. The mighty dragon boss Meley awaits players at level 105 who are ready to face his devastating power. Fire, fury and centuries of draconic strength converge in this legendary endgame dungeon.

This guide covers everything you need to know: the requirements, the optimal group composition, the boss strategy and, of course, the coveted drops that Meley leaves behind.

Requirements for the Meley Dungeon

Level and Equipment

To enter the Meley Dungeon you need at least Level 105. It is strongly recommended to arrive with solid endgame equipment — weak gear will lead to a swift group wipe.

Minimum level: 105
High-quality weapons and armour are essential
Bring plenty of potions (healing and mana)
Increase fire resistance wherever possible
Magic resistance is also very helpful

Experience and Coordination

Meley is not a dungeon for newcomers. You should already have experience with group instances and understand how your class performs in a team. Communication is crucial in the Meley Dungeon.

Meley as a Dragon Boss

Meley is an ancient dragon defined by fire and draconic power. He embodies pure destruction: enormous wings, glowing scales and breath attacks capable of wiping out entire groups. His attacks deal primarily fire and magic damage, which is why the right resistances are so important.

The dragon attacks in both melee and at range. His territory inside the dungeon is clearly defined — the path to him leads through several antechambers filled with dragon guardians that already test the group before the main boss encounter.

Dungeon Layout and the Path to the Boss

The Meley Dungeon consists of several sections the group must clear before reaching the main boss:

Entrance Hall: Standard dragon guardians — a warm-up phase for the group
Dragon Hoard: Stronger elite enemies, the first serious challenge
Dragon Antechamber: Dragon guardian mini-boss, final preparation before Meley
Meley's Chamber: The final battle against the dragon Meley himself

Clear each room carefully. Rushing pulls can overwhelm the group and drain precious resources before the main fight.

Boss Strategy: Defeating Meley

Phase 1: Standard Dragon Attacks

In the first phase Meley attacks with basic moves: clawing, biting and occasional fire bursts. The tank holds the boss in position while healers keep everyone alive. DPS classes can attack freely. This phase is still relatively manageable.

Phase 2: Fire Breath Attacks — Positioning is Everything

At around 60% health Meley enters phase 2. He begins unleashing massive fire breath attacks that deal devastating area damage in a cone in front of him. Positioning becomes critical:

Ranged players and healers: stay behind the boss, never stand in front of his mouth
Tank: keep the boss's mouth turned away from the group
Melee DPS: attack from the flanks or behind
When the AoE fire attack triggers, dodge immediately or use defensive abilities

Phase 3: Berserk Mode

Below 30% health Meley goes berserk. He attacks faster, his fire attacks gain greater range and he gains new abilities. Maximum healing and maximum DPS are required in this phase. The only viable strategy is to bring him down before the group crumbles under the pressure.

Recommended Class Composition

Role	Class	Count
Tank	Warrior (Mental Force)	1
Main Healer	Shaman (Body)	1–2
Melee DPS	Sura, Warrior (Knight Spirit)	2–3
Ranged DPS	Ninja (Bow)	1

A solid tank and reliable healers are the absolute foundation. Without sufficient healing the group will not survive the later phases.

Important Resistances

Fire and magic resistance are particularly important in the Meley Dungeon. Try to boost your resistance values through the following means:

Alchemy stones with fire resistance bonuses
Consumables such as fire protection potions
Equipment with magic/fire resistance bonuses
Costumes and accessories with resistance stats

Rewards: Exclusive Dragon Items

When Meley falls he leaves behind valuable dragon equipment pieces that rank among the most sought-after items in the game. These exclusive drops are obtainable only from the Meley Dungeon and form an important part of the endgame progression system.
