Best The Forge Weapon Recipes Island 3

The Forge players who are already through to the Frostspire Expanse, the Island 3 recipes for the best weapons will be the best. Here is the list of weapons you can make to survive the third island:

Best The Forge Weapon Recipe with Highest Damage

If you are rich in ores, you should not go for any mediocre weapon. That said, here is the weapon recipe for the highest damage Colossal Sword or Great Axe in The Forge:

Best The Forge Mace Weapon Recipe

Mace is one of the exclusive weapons you can craft only when on Island 3. While this weapon does not require a lot of ores, most of the early ones are not as useful. We are going directly for the late-game Mace recipe in The Forge:

Crafting Recipe	Stats
3x Gargantuan 3x Suryafal 3x Heavenite	Base Damage: 276.00 DMG 50.00% Explosion Damage, 35.00% Explosion Chance, 20.00% Fire Damage, 30.00% Fire Chance, 2.00% Burn Duration (s) 25.00% Angel Smite Damage, 40.00% Angel Smite Chance

Early-Mid Game Mace Recipe

If you are new to the third island and want a mace, I suggest you stick to your old weapon until you find these ores from the Small Ice Crystals: Snowite, Crimsonite, Malachite. Once you have them, you can craft one of the strongest early maces in the game. Here is the recipe you need to follow to make it:

Crafting Recipe	Stats
3x Snowite 3x Malachite 3x Crimsonite	Base Damage: 116.38 DMG 15.00% Snow Damage, 3.00% Snow Duration (s), 30.00% Snow Chance 10.00% Poison Damage, 3.00% Poison Duration (s), 33.00% Poison Chance 20.00% Damage Boost

One-Shot Spear Weapon Recipe in The Forge

Spear is one of the exclusive weapons in The Forge that you can only craft on the third island. Here is the recipe you can follow and make the strongest Spear in The Forge:

Crafting Recipe	Stats
3x Etherealite 2x Suryafal 6x Snowite 5x Iceite	Base Damage: 199.63 DMG 15.00% Snow Damage, 3.00% Snow Duration (s), 30.00% Snow Chance 2.00% Freeze Duration (s), 12.00% Freeze Cooldown (s), 25.00% Freeze Chance

This one-shot spear can shut down any enemy in the game in one or two clicks, but that is not all. You can solo the bosses in The Forge by using this spear. It gives you snow damage and freezing effects, making the enemy slower than your attack speed.

Divine Chaos Weapon Recipe in The Forge

Chaos is a great straight sword, ideal for fighting tank enemies in the game. However, if it does not have enough damage, the average attack speed can work against your favor. That is why we have found the strongest Chaos of the divine rarity you can use in The Forge.

Crafting Recipe	Stats
2x Gargantuan 2x Suryafal 2x Iceite	Base Damage: 340.88 DMG 2.00% Freeze Duration (s), 12.00% Freeze Cooldown (s), 25.00% Freeze Chance 50.00% Explosion Damage, 35.00% Explosion Chance, 20.00% Fire Damage, 30.00% Fire Chance, 2.00% Burn Duration (s)

Best Late Game Weapon Recipe in The Forge

This weapon will make sure you have a high base damage, which can be improved by getting runes. However, the highlight is the combination of Magmaite. With more than 100 damage at base, the explosion will deal 50% of its damage, making almost every hit deal 150 damage to the enemies.
