Finding the strongest weapon in The Forge can change your whole experience, especially when enemies get tougher and crafting becomes more demanding. This guide breaks down the best weapons, why they stand out, and how you can craft them using the right materials.

Understanding All Weapon Types in The Forge
The game offers a wide selection of weapon classes, each with its own stats and playstyle. Here are the main categories you’ll come across:
- Daggers
- Straight Swords
- Greatswords
- Gauntlets
- Katanas
- Great Axes
- Scythes
- Colossal Swords
Each type has different base damage, attack speed, and range. But if you’re aiming for the strongest overall option, one category stands above the rest.
How to Craft the Best Weapons
- Cobalt
- Lapis
- Platinum
- Quartz
Dropping in a large amount of these materials can get you a high chance at rolling a colossal sword. For example, using a big mix of these ores can give around a 70%+ chance for a colossal pull. Once crafted, higher-level players unlock more weapon options, including rare and unique variants.
Weapon The Forge Tier List
S Tier – Best in the Game
Colossal Swords The clear winner. Massive damage, good reach, strong upgrades, great for all content. If you’re crafting high-tier weapons, go straight for colossal.
-
Hammer
-
Any rare or epic colossal version
A Tier – Extremely Strong & Reliable
Straight Swords (High-End Variants) Weapons like the Rapier and Chaos offer incredible DPS thanks to fast hit speed and strong scaling. Perfect for players who dislike slow-swinging weapons.
-
Chaos
-
Rapier
-
High-rarity straight swords
B Tier – Good but Outclassed
- Katanas Fast weapons with decent DPS, but not strong enough to compete with colossal or high-end straight swords. Good for mid-game or players who like speed-focused gameplay.
- Great Swords Solid but overshadowed. Good stepping-stone before colossal swords. Strong early-to-mid game option.
C Tier – Playable but Not Recommended
- Great Axes Strong hits but slow and clunky. Can be used, but you’ll feel the difference when switching to a better class.
- Gauntlets Fast and fun but weak overall damage. Very close-range, making them risky and inefficient for farming.
D Tier – Avoid These
- Daggers Fast but extremely low damage. Good only in the first hour of gameplay.
- Scythes Cool design but poor stats. Slow attack + low damage makes them the weakest heavy weapon class.
The Forge has plenty of weapon choices, but only a handful truly stand out. If you want the strongest, go for colossal swords crafted with high-quality ores. For fast playstyles, the Rapier, Chaos, and Reaper also deliver great results.
Use your rare ores wisely, craft strategically, and you’ll end up with weapons that can handle anything the game throws at you. This guide should help you decide what to build next so you can power through enemies faster and upgrade your gear more efficiently.
