Overview
Armor crafting in The Forge is mainly about choosing the right materials, using the right amounts, and hitting good craft quality. Some ores add special traits, but many commonly used mid- and late-game ores do not. Because of that, your results depend more on how the recipe is built than on hidden bonuses.
This page is organized by progression stage to help you:
β’ Know what to craft next
β’ Avoid wasting rare materials too early
β’ Move smoothly from mid game into late and end game
How Armor Crafting Works in The Forge
When crafting armor in The Forge, results are influenced by:
- The ores used
- The quantity of each ore
- The resulting multiplier and craft quality
- The armor type and tier
Important notes:
β’ Some ores, such as Ruby, Emerald, and Cuprite, do not provide traits, so results depend mainly on recipe balance and craft quality.
β’ Mythril, Eye Ore, and Obsidian do provide armor-related traits, which become more important in late and end game recipes.
β’ Higher defense primarily comes from armor tier and craft quality, not traits alone.
Keeping these points in mind helps avoid common crafting mistakes.
