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:

  1. Equip a stone chisel from your inventory
  2. Right click on the stone forge and select Improvements/Chip

To improve with rock shards:

  1. Equip a rock shards from your inventory
  2. 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.

Tips

  • The quality level of your forge is a factor in both how long it stays lit for and how long it takes to heat up items. EG:/ a 40ql forge will take 20 minutes to get iron lumps glowing (May also depend on quality of lumps)
  • If you use wood scrap as fuel only burn 20wt at a time - a 40ql forge will last for approximately 40minutes before you need to refuel (more than 20wt does not seem to effect how long the forge lasts at any ql)
  • Your forge will hold 28 count ore at most.
  • With the addition of tar and such you can use those as substitutes , however some burn better -- I am not sure which.
