How to Complete the Captain Rowan Quest in The Forge Roblox
Captain Rowan offers one of the longer quest lines in The Forge, and finishing it requires both combat and mining progression. Many players get stuck because they don’t know where to find the required monsters or ores. This guide breaks down everything you need to do to finish the entire quest chain easily. Also check out our Roblox The Forge Beginner Guide for those interested and the Race Tier List.
What You Need Before Starting
Captain Rowan’s tasks focus on killing stronger enemies and gathering specific ores. Before you begin:
- Use a solid weapon with decent upgrades
- Equip armor that can handle volcanic enemies
- Carry a pickaxe strong enough to mine advanced ores
- Be prepared to farm essence later
Good gear will save a lot of time since most of the quests involve fighting in high-damage areas.

Step 1: Defeat Skeleton Rogues and Basic Enemies
Your early goals are simple: eliminate weaker skeleton types. Head to the area where Skeleton Rogues spawn. As you continue, you will also be asked to fight:
- Axe Skeletons
- Skeleton Bombers
- Death Axe Skeletons
All of these enemies are located in the same underground section where you’ll find rooms filled with these targets. This is the best early grinding spot for Rowan’s quests.
Step 2: Travel to the Volcanic Depths
Eventually, Rowan will ask for stronger kills. That’s when you must move to the Volcanic Depths area. Here, you’ll find the required elite enemies for the remaining combat quests:
- Elite Rogue Skeletons
- Elite Death Skeletons
- Reapers
- Blazing Slimes
This area deals more damage, so good armor becomes extremely important.
Step 3: Mine Ores for Captain Rowan
Several of Rowan’s tasks will require ores. One important example is Eye Ore. Eye Ore can be mined from:
- Bassalt Rocks
- Bassalt Core
- Bassalt Veins
When checking other ores, look at each rock to see which material it drops. Collect everything Rowan asks for to progress.
Step 4: Farm Essence
The final part of the quest requires Epic Essence. You need 30 Epic Essence to finish the quest. Epic Essence drops from:
- Elite Death Skeletons
- Elite Rogue Skeletons
- Other strong enemies in the Volcanic Depths
Focus your farming in that area until you have enough to complete the last objective.
Finishing the Quest
Once you’ve:
- Defeated all required enemy types
- Collected multiple ores
- Farmed 30 Epic Essence
Return to Captain Rowan to finish the quest line.
Completing the Captain Rowan quest is mainly about grinding the right enemies and gathering high-tier ores. With strong gear, navigation to the Volcanic Depths, and patience while farming essence, the quest becomes much easier to complete. Use this guide to follow the route, upgrade gear if needed, and clear Rowan’s tasks step by step. Enjoy your rewards and progress deeper into The Forge.
