Crafting in The Forge is more than just combining ores—it’s a deep, data-driven system where every material, multiplier, trait, and weapon type affects your final damage output. With dozens of ores, multiple weapon categories, hidden trait synergies, and a heavy dose of RNG, most players never realize how much power they can unlock simply by understanding how the system actually works.
This guide breaks everything down with precise numbers, weapon DPS charts, ore multipliers, trait effects, and complete crafting logic so you can consistently create the strongest weapons in the game. Whether you’re aiming for high-speed katana builds, raw-power colossal swords, or perfectly optimized straight swords like the Chaos or Rapier, every step of the process is covered here.
Using community-verified Sources, in-game testing, and detailed trait analysis, this article shows you exactly how to maximize DPS, how ore multipliers interact with weapon rolls, which traits provide the biggest increases, and how to craft endgame weapons with the highest chance of success.
If you’ve ever wondered why the Dragon Slayer dominates the DPS rankings, how to stack traits like Explosion or Burn for huge AoE damage, or which ores give the best stat scaling for each weapon class, this guide will give you the complete answer. By the end, you’ll know how to craft the best weapon possible — and understand the math behind what makes it the best.
