How the Forge works

Choose the equipment category (light weapon, staff, heavy weapon, light/heavy armor).
Insert up to four ore types at once. Mixing shifts the crafting pool and makes the result less predictable.
Watch the multiplier and crafting-pool preview, then click Forge when the hammer marker reaches the orange band of the timing bar. Heavy gear needs more clicks.
At least half of the inserted ore must be Mythic for a Mythic-quality result (which earns four substats). The mini-game can only lower quality — it can never exceed the input materials.
After crafting, take the weapon to Blessing (+0 → +9, gold + Cave of Crystal crystals) and Enchanting (runes at Milo) for the final damage pass.

Tips from the community wiki

Use one ore type when you need a stable output — mixing shifts the crafting pool and makes results unpredictable.
At least half of the inserted ore must be Mythic rarity for a Mythic result. The mini-game only ever lowers rarity, never raises it.
Click Forge when the hammer marker reaches the orange band of the timing bar. Heavy gear needs more clicks.
Check the live in-game chance display before spending rare ore — published sources can become outdated.
