The '''Blacksmith Forge''' is the upgrade station located in [[Frostmere]], operated by the NPC [[Grimjaw]]. Players visit the Blacksmith Forge to upgrade their starter tools and weapons to Lvl 2 versions, doubling both yield and XP per action for the relevant skill.

Frostmere requires a minimum Total Level of 20 to enter, so the Blacksmith Forge is only accessible to players who have progressed their five core skills to an average of level 20.
Frostmere has no entry requirement, so the forge is open to everyone.

Blacksmith Forge
Role Smelting, forging, and repair station
Location Frostmere
Services Smelts ingots and forges copper, iron, and silver tools and weapons via Grimjaw.

The Blacksmith Forge is the smithing station located in Frostmere, operated by the NPC Grimjaw. Players visit the Blacksmith Forge to smelt ingots and forge copper, iron, and silver tools and weapons through the Smithing skill.

Frostmere has no entry requirement, so the forge is open to everyone. The old "Lvl 2" upgrade system was retired — its items live on as the iron tier of the current forge (the Iron Axe is the Iron Axe, and so on). One short note for returning players: the old flat-material upgrades (Metal + Wood + Coal) and the "doubles yield and XP" effect no longer exist — tool tiers now buy swing speed only.

Smelting

Ingots are smelted from raw resources, in batches of ×1 / ×5 / ×10:

Ingot Cost each Smithing XP each
Copper Ingot 10 Stone + 5 Coal 10 XP
Iron Ingot 6 Iron Ore + 6 Coal 22 XP
Silver Ingot 4 Silver Ore + 8 Coal 30 XP

Forging

Nine tools are forged from ingots plus Wood, gated by Smithing level 0–27:

Tier Tools Effect
Copper Copper Axe, Copper Pickaxe, Copper Sword 5% faster swing; sword hits for 23
Iron Iron Axe, Iron Pickaxe, Iron Sword 10% faster swing; sword hits for 26
Silver Silver Axe, Silver Pickaxe, Silver Sword 15% faster swing; sword hits for 30

Tool tiers speed up your swing — they do not change gathering yield or XP. See Frostmere and Smithing for the full recipe table with material amounts and level gates.

Repairs

Forged tools carry 4,000 uses. The forge also repairs damaged gear — a repair costs 60% of every material the forge charged to make it (ingots and Wood), scaled to the missing durability, with at least one of each. Armour crafted by Kaziir the Armoursmith is repaired here too; Kaziir himself does not take it back.

How to use

  • Travel to Frostmere — no level requirement.
  • Talk to Grimjaw at the Blacksmith Forge. Smelting, forging and repairs only work while you are standing in a forge.
  • Have the required materials in your backpack — banked materials do not count.
  • Select smelt, forge, or repair and confirm.

A second full blacksmith, Harun the Forgewright, operates in The Dunes West.
