There is no lack of big bad bosses in The Forge. You won’t know when one might appear and whether you get beaten down to a wreck or win against them depends on your skills, moves, and most crucially, your armor. It is one thing to keep your HP and skills in check but totally another aspect to craft armor. As of the latest update, Island 3 has been released in the game. With a new island comes new ores, and with new ores, comes craftable armors.
We have gone through the best armors in the game and we bring to you their respective recipes which will make you invincible and always a bit too strong for the enemies.
Armors: An Overview
In the Forge, you can create upto 3 different armors with their own categories. You can create a Chest plate, a pair of leggings and even a helmet. There are no shoes because your leggings will cover it all. Your three pieces of armor are also further classified into Light, Medium and Heavy armors.
If you want to create a light armor, then you wont need much ore but if you want a heavy armor, then you will have to keep a stack of ore. The minimum number of ores you need is 3 ores (for a Light Helmet) and the maximum number of ores is 24 ores (for Knight Helmet).
