Black Forge

The Black forge is a late-game crafting station used for advanced crafting and item upgrades. It is built in the Ashlands tier of progression and must be placed near a Workbench to be constructed. Once available, it unlocks additional crafting recipes and serves as the base station for improving equipment that requires higher forge levels.

To build a Black forge, place it using 10 Black Marble, 10 Wood, and 5 Black Core. After construction, its upgrade level can be increased by adding structures near it, which also expands the crafting and upgrade options available from the station.

The upgrade structures are:

• Black Forge Cooler — 5 Iron, 5 Copper, 4 Black marble
• Vice — 5 Iron, 8 Copper, 2 Mechanical spring
• Metal Cutter — 5 Black marble, 5 Flametal, 5 Ashwood, 4 Charred Bone
• Gem Cutter — 5 Flametal, 8 Ashwood, 2 Morgen Sinew, 1 Bloodstone

The Black forge and its upgrades together form the full Black forge crafting setup, with the listed upgrade pieces contributing to its total material cost and station progression.
