Loot to Forge Enhance and Forging Guide
The Enhance station turns Ember Stones and Coins into +1 levels on a weapon, helmet or armor piece. The chance to succeed falls as you climb: 33% at +7 and 25% at +8, and from +6 upward a failure drops the item one level. Before enhancing, forge a good base: 4 ores make a Katana, 13 make a Greatsword, and the multiplier is the average of the ores you use.
How forging works
The forge sits in the middle of the hub. It has 4 slots, and each slot holds a stack of one ore type. A tab in the bottom right switches between Weapon and Armor. Two numbers decide what you get:
Ore quality sets the multiplier
The forge multiplier is the weighted average of your ores. Example: 3 The Apex + 4 Panic-Core = (3×140 + 4×128) ÷ 7 = 133.14.
Ore count sets the class
Few ores roll a Katana or Light Helmet. More ores push the roll toward Greatsword or Heavy Armor. New gear is not equipped for you: open the Backpack and equip it by hand.
| Ores | Result |
|---|---|
| 4 | Katana 100% |
| 5 | Katana 85% |
| 8 | Greatsword 50% |
| 12 | Greatsword 85% |
| 13 | Greatsword 100% |
| Ores | Result |
|---|---|
| 4 | Light Helmet 100% |
| 5 | Light Helmet 85% |
| 6 | Light Helmet 70%, Light Armor 30% |
| 14 | Heavy Armor 95% (The Apex) |
| 17 | Heavy Armor 100% (Frostbite) |
| 22 / 23 | Heavy Armor 95% / 100% |
The forge shows the class chance before you press Forge. Add one more ore if it is just below 100%.
Forge multiplier calculator
Pick up to 4 ore stacks to see the multiplier and the class you will roll.
Use "Custom multiplier" for any ore not in the list.
Are there fixed forge recipes?
No. The forge rolls a random item of the class you are building, weighted by your multiplier, so the best "recipe" is your best ore in the largest stack you can carry. Some combinations are popular early on, for example Gold + Obsidian + Sapphire + Fire Crystal for an Epic Phantom Violet Katana.
Each new weapon also rolls one random skill from its class pool, and rarer ores raise the odds of a high-grade skill. See the skill table on the weapons page.
Loot to Forge enhance: how to upgrade gear
- Bring an item to the Enhance station in the hub.
- The screen shows the success chance and the cost in Ember Stones and Coins for the next level.
- On success the item gains a level and its stat rises. Weapons gain Power %, helmets and armor gain their own stats.
- On failure from +6 upward, the item drops one level unless a Protection Scroll covers it.
| Attempt | Success rate | On failure |
|---|---|---|
| +1 to +5 | Above 33% | No level loss |
| +6 to +7 | 33% | Drops one level |
| +7 to +8 | 25% | Drops one level |
| +8 to +10 | Below 25% | Drops one level |
Practise on cheap Katanas first (see the quest trick below) and save Protection Scrolls for attempts at +6 and above, where a failure costs a level.
Loot to Forge enhance cost
30 Ember Stones cover about 4 low-level attempts. High levels ask for around 400 Ember Stones each, plus Coins every time.
The math of a risky enhance
At 25% you need four attempts on average for one success, and each failure also drops a level. A small stack of Ember Stones goes much further on low levels.

Loot to Forge enhance quests and a cheap trick
The enhance quest line asks you to enhance a set number of times, forge weapons and forge armor. Rewards are 15 Ember Stones for 5 enhances, 40 for 10, and Prismatic Stones after 30. The shop also sells "Skip Enhance Event Quest" for 199 Robux.
Quest trick
Forge plain Katanas from your cheapest ores, then enhance each one twice. Low levels are cheap and every attempt counts toward the quest, so you reach the reward tiers without risking your main weapon.
Enchanting with runes
Enhancing raises an item's level; enchanting adds runes. Every weapon, helmet and armor piece has 2 rune slots. Runes (Enchantment Stones) drop in the Frostbound Tower.
Flame
Tier I: 3% on hit to burn for 0.2% ATK every 0.2s for 2.2s, and 6% to explode for 2.5%.
Thunder
Tier I: 3% on hit for 5% of ATK. The purple tier: 5% for 10%. The best rune for most builds.
Frost
Ice rune from the Frostbound Tower, in the same three tiers.
Poison
Poison rune from the Frostbound Tower, in the same three tiers.
Tiers: I is UnCommon, II is Rare, III is Epic. Removing a rune costs 1K Coins. An item can carry both runes and enhance levels.
