Forge
Live in Early AccessThe Forge
Socket and upgrade your gear — if you're willing to gamble the gold.
One thing the Forge is not: a place to craft weapons and armor from raw materials. It's the blacksmith's upgrade bench, where you open gem sockets in your gear, combine matched gems into stronger ones, and forge them into something the whole harbor can see. It's the game's deep gold sink, and at the high end it's a genuine high-stakes gamble.

What the bench can do
Fusion
Add a socket
An Equipment Stabilizer and an Equipment Catalyst open a new gem socket on eligible gear. No roll involved - it always works.
Requires
Combine
Level up gems
Two gems of the same kind and level, sealed with a Combination Scroll, become one gem a level higher. Fail the roll and everything is consumed.
Requires
Apply Gem
Set gems into gear
A gem and a Refining Gem of the same level set it into a socket, or push a socketed gem higher. The odds tighten as the levels climb.
Requires
Only socket-capable gear can be forged. The default cap is two sockets, special gear can go higher, and gems climb to level 9 with bigger stat bonuses at each level.
The rules that make it matter
Combine and Apply Gem are classic MMO risk: gems, scrolls, and Refining Gems are consumed whether the roll lands or not, and the gold is spent either way. Early levels are generous. Pushing toward level 9 is the real gamble.
Real odds
The workbench above runs the Forge's real odds. Slide to level 9 and you're looking at the exact roll the game would give you.
Your weapon shows it
A forged weapon glows with the highest gem socketed into it. Climb the levels and the fire burns brighter and wider, for everyone to see.
Gold has teeth
Fusion and Combine run 50,000g a try. Applying a gem costs 100,000g times the gem level, and the Refining Gem burns with the attempt.
Crash-proof by design
A Forge operation either finishes completely - gold spent, inputs consumed, upgrade applied - or it does not happen at all. A disconnect or crash mid-forge can never leave you with lost gold and nothing to show for it.
A real gold sink
Adding sockets, combining gems, and applying high-level gems costs serious gold. That keeps the economy honest and makes a fully forged weapon something you actually earned.
