Mining-focused builds
Combat-oriented builds
Hybrid crafting builds
Rerolls are frequently distributed in milestone batches (x5, x8, x10).
About Weapons in The Forge
Weapons are the core of combat in The Forge. Every build, strategy, and progression path revolves around the weapon you craft and upgrade.
Unlike static loot systems, weapons in The Forge are generated through a forging system influenced by RNG, ore investment, and tier probabilities. This means every weapon crafted has unique potential.
- Craft weapons using different ore quantities
- Weapon stats directly impact DPS and playstyle
- Forging chance determines rarity
- Masterwork quality doubles final damage output
Your weapon defines your combat identity — speed assassin, heavy burst striker, or tactical range controller.
How Weapons Work
Base Weapon vs Variant
Each weapon belongs to a base category (e.g., Dagger, Sword, Axe). Within each category are multiple variants that share a core identity but differ slightly in stat scaling.
Example:
- Base Type: Dagger
- Variants: Hook, Fangblade, Shadow Fang
Variants may differ in damage bias, speed offset, or ore multiplier efficiency.
Weapon Stats Explained
| Stat | Meaning | Gameplay Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Damage | Base damage value | Directly affects DPS output |
| Attack Speed | Hits per second | Higher speed = smoother DPS scaling |
| Attack Range | Effective attack distance | Impacts positioning and safety |
| Chance | Forging probability | Lower % = rarer weapon |
| Price | Sell value | Reflects rarity tier |
| Ore Multiplier | Damage scaling factor | Boosts final damage calculation |
| Quality | Normal or Masterwork | Masterwork = 2x final damage |
| Durability | Removed mechanic | No longer affects gameplay |
Damage Calculation Formula
Understanding weapon scaling is crucial for optimizing builds.
Final Damage = Base Damage × Ore Multiplier × Mastery
How multipliers work:
- 1% multiplier = 1.01x damage
- 50% multiplier = 1.5x damage
- 100% multiplier = 2.0x damage
- Masterwork quality = 2x final damage
Example:
If a weapon has 100 base damage and 80% ore multiplier:
100 × 1.8 = 180 damage
If Masterwork:
180 × 2 = 360 final damage
Weapon Forging System
Forging determines which weapon class you receive.
Ore Investment Determines Class
- Low Ore = Light Weapons
- Medium Ore = Balanced Weapons
- High Ore = Heavy / Colossal Weapons
RNG Roll Logic
The system rolls from lowest chance to highest chance. Rare weapons are evaluated first.
This ensures ultra-rare weapons maintain their exclusivity.
