How the Hook Blade is obtained through forging
The Hook Blade does not have a fixed ingredient recipe. Instead, it is rolled from the Straight Sword forging category. Your success depends entirely on how many ores you place into the forge before starting the minigame.
When you forge, the game evaluates:
- The weapon category you selected
- The number of ores used
- Your minigame completion
Ore quality can influence weapon stats, but it does not change whether the Hook Blade can appear.
Ore requirements and success chances explained
| Ores used | Approximate chance to get Hook Blade |
|---|---|
| 4 ores | ~14% chance |
| 5 ores | Moderate chance |
| 6 ores | ~86% chance |
Using fewer than four ores will not reliably roll straight swords, while six ores is widely considered the optimal setup if you specifically want the Hook Blade.
Hook Blade performance and scaling
The Hook Blade sits comfortably in the mid-tier range:
- Balanced damage and attack speed make it effective for early and mid-game combat
- Higher ore counts can improve weapon quality, leading to better stat rolls
- Rarer ores may slightly enhance final stats but are not mandatory
This makes the Hook Blade a reliable upgrade without requiring rare drops or boss farming.
If you want consistency, use six ores, select Straight Sword, and forge carefully. The Hook Blade rewards players who understand the system rather than those who gamble blindly, making it one of the more predictable weapons to obtain in The Forge.
