Quest overview and rewards

The Monkey quest is an early‑game side quest in The Forge tied to a secret Monkey NPC in the Forgotten Kingdom area on Island 2. Guides consistently describe it as non‑combat and beginner‑friendly: your only task is to gather a specific quantity of banana‑type ore from the starting world and return it to the Monkey.​​

Finishing the quest awards the Monke Business badge and a small package of progression rewards, typically including experience and currency, making it a worthwhile objective while you are still clearing low‑tier rocks and boulders anyway. Because the quest sends you back to World 1’s basic mining spots, it doubles as a guided introduction to resource farming and side quests in The Forge.​

Requirements and how to start

To start the Monkey quest, you first need access to Island 2: the Forgotten Kingdom, which generally means progressing the main quest line enough to unlock travel there, often via the Wizard’s teleport or Portal Tool systems. Beginner location guides recommend at least a modest pickaxe and a bit of health/armor, not because this quest is dangerous, but because enemies around the Forgotten Kingdom can punish completely fresh characters walking in unprepared.​​

Once you can reach the Forgotten Kingdom, there is no formal quest marker; you simply find and talk to the Monkey NPC to begin, which is why so many players miss the quest until someone points out the hidden location. When you speak to the Monkey, it complains about being hungry and offers dialogue options tied to how many pieces of Bananite (banana ore) you promise to bring, such as small, medium, or large amounts like 3, 7, or 31.​​

Exact Monkey location in the Forgotten Kingdom

The Monkey is located in the Forgotten Kingdom region near the starting side of Island 2, slightly away from the main NPC cluster and easy to overlook if you only follow obvious roads. Written and video guides describe two consistent ways to find it: either follow the path toward the corner of the Forgotten Kingdom’s structures on the right, or walk from spawn toward the coast and look for small rocky islets just offshore.​​

From the Forgotten Kingdom spawn, one common method is to turn toward the sea and swim out to the second small island in a row on the right‑hand side; the Monkey stands there partially hidden behind rocks, waiting for interaction. Alternative route explanations that follow the land path still converge on the same spot: a fixed Monkey spawn point near the Forgotten Kingdom edge, so once you have seen it once, you can return there directly for the hand‑in.​​

Getting Bananas/Bananite in World 1

When you accept the quest, the Monkey asks for Bananas or Bananite, which guides clarify is a banana‑themed ore that drops in World 1 from basic mining nodes. Community resources explain that you must return to the first island, then mine Rocks and Boulders until Bananas/Bananite drop, with an approximate rate of about 1 in 30 nodes for the banana drop according to drop‑rate testing.​​

Efficient farming advice is to stay in a dense cluster of Rocks and Boulders near the main cave on World 1, loop through breaking every node as it respawns, and ignore higher‑tier ores since they do not improve the banana drop chance. Make sure you keep count of how many Bananas/Bananite you obtain and match the amount you originally promised to the Monkey (for example, 3, 7, or 31 pieces), otherwise you will have to repeat the mining loop to make up the difference before turning in.​​

Hand‑in, badge, and tips

After collecting the required number of Bananas/Bananite, return to Island 2 and follow the same route back to the Monkey’s island or corner spot in the Forgotten Kingdom, then interact to hand over the items and complete the quest. On completion, players report receiving the Monke Business badge instantly along with a modest bump of XP and currency, making it a quick side objective to combine with other Forgotten Kingdom errands.​​

Guides recommend choosing a mid‑range banana requirement (not the smallest, not the largest), since the quest is repeatable content only in the sense of practice and farming, and the time to mine very high Bananite counts can outweigh the minor extra rewards. Treat the Monkey quest as a one‑time checklist item that also teaches you where profitable low‑tier mining spots are and how side quests in The Forge often send you back and forth between islands for specific drops.​​
