Ores in The Forge are the fundamental crafting materials — you mine them from rock nodes and use them to forge weapons, armor, and tools. The type and rarity of ore you use affects the stats, rarity, and special traits of the gear you create. As you explore deeper caves and harder zones, rarer ores unlock stronger multipliers and unique effects. A smart mining and ore-selection strategy is key to mastering crafting and progression.
