Improvements
To improve a forge, you must first right click, and examine the forge. In the Event window you will see what you need to work on the forge to improve its quality.
In all cases it will either require a stone chisel to chip away irregularities or rock shards.
To improve with stone chisel:
- Equip a stone chisel from your inventory
- Right click on the stone forge and select Improvements/Chip
To improve with rock shards:
- Equip a rock shards from your inventory
- Right click on the stone forge and select Improvements/Improve
Usage
Cooking in a forge is not recommended because there is a larger chance of burning your food. For cooking it would be better to use a stone oven. However, because of the increased difficulty of cooking, many people do cook in forges for the increased skill gain.
Tips
- The first lump of clay you use (when starting the forge) will be completely consumed even if it is a 20kg lump.
- Subsequent use of clay can be taken from a single 20kg lump, however that is inefficient since the lump will become progressively more damaged.
- The quality level of a forge is a factor in both how long it stays lit for and how long it takes to heat up items. Example: a 40QL forge will take 20 minutes to get iron lumps glowing (also depends on quality of lumps).
- A 70 quality level forge burns for 115 minutes with 20kg of peat set to burn in it.
- If using wood scrap as fuel only burn 20kg at a time. A 40QL forge will last for approximately 40 minutes before it needs refueling (more than 20kg does not seem to effect how long the forge lasts at any QL).
- A forge will hold 28 ore at most. However, using a cauldron allows the forge to hold more things.
- Tar and other fuel sorces can also be used; some burn better than others. See fuel for more info.
- Metal scraps will cool much faster than usually in an unlit forge regardless of the forge ql.
- Wooden items such as small barrels WILL burn up if left inside.
