Complete Beginner's Guide to The Forge 2025

▼

Welcome to The Forge!

The Forge is a Roblox crafting game where you collect ores, combine them in a forge, and create powerful weapons and armor. Here's everything you need to know to get started.

🎮 Basic Mechanics

Mining: Explore the world and mine ore nodes. Different areas have different ores.
Forging: Combine up to 4 different ore types in the forge to craft items.
Multipliers: Each ore has a multiplier (0.2x to 11.5x) that affects your item's stats.
Probabilities: The total ores you add determines what items you can craft.

📊 Understanding Multipliers

The average multiplier of your ore mix determines your weapon's damage or armor's defense. Higher is better!

Common ores (Stone, Copper): 0.2x - 0.5x multiplier
Uncommon ores (Gold, Silver): 0.5x - 1.3x multiplier
Rare ores (Diamond, Sapphire): 1.5x - 2.5x multiplier
Epic+ ores (Rivalite, Magmaite): 3x - 11.5x multiplier

🔥 Your First Weapon

Collect at least 3 ores (any type works for practice)
Go to the Forge and add your ores
Check the probability panel to see what you might get
Click Forge and hope for the best!

💡 Beginner Tips

Don't waste rare ores early - practice with common ores first
Use this calculator to plan before forging!
Focus on getting 3+ ores before trying to craft
Higher ore count = better item chances
