The Forge: Weapons Tier List & Guide [Stats, Rankings, & More]

Weapons are one of the most important pieces of gear in The Forge, and there are many different ones you can craft, some being OP, while others are not so much. In our The Forge weapons tier list and guide below, we will explain which weapons are the best and why, all weapon stats, sell prices, optimal crafting recipes, and more.

Tiers Explained

• S Tier: The best weapons in The Forge with a good ratio of damage, attack speed, and range.
• A Tier: Good weapons that have decent stats, but aren’t as OP as the S-tier ones.
• B Tier: Decent weapons that can work, but some of their stats are simply suboptimal.
• C Tier: Weak weapons that simply can’t compete with all the others.

In the tier list above, you can check out our general ranking of all weapons in The Forge Roblox experience. All weapons have different Range, Damage, and Attack Speed, making some better than others. Here is how stats impact the game, and how they impact each weapon’s ranking. All weapon stats and other useful information are in the sections below.

Weapons Ranking Factors

• Damage: The base damage of a weapon will influence its DPS and also how good it is at one-shotting things, as well as its stun damage. Higher-damage weapons will allow you to stun enemies with just a few hits.
• Attack Speed: The attack speed of a weapon is the other thing that will influence its DPS, and it will also help you weave in attacks between blocks/parries. If the weapon’s attack speed is too low, you won’t be able to dish out damage without getting hit.
• Range: The higher the weapon’s range, the better it will be at dealing initial damage and kiting enemies, as well as dealing with multiple enemies at once.
• DPS: Against high-HP enemies, your DPS will play a big part in how quickly you’ll deal with them. However, it won’t be as important against low-HP targets that can be killed with one full attack cycle.
• Attack Animations: Some weapons, like Gauntlets, have very fast attack animations, while others, like Double Battle Axe, have insanely long ones. The longer the wind-up, the harder it will be to deal damage and weave in attacks after parries.
• Crafting Costs: Heavy weapons are much more difficult/expensive to craft, and will require a bunch of high-rarity ores to be good.

All Weapons & Their Stats in The Forge

In the tables below, you can find the stats, rarities, and important details regarding each weapon in The Forge Roblox experience and their ranking in the tier list above. The recipes/required ores for each weapon type are outlined further below.

Rarities: Some weapons are only craftable in certain worlds/areas and can have different rarities, depending on other weapons of the same type in the crafting pool. Rarities for different worlds will be indicated in square brackets ([W1] = World 1, [W2] = World 2, etc.).
