A Complete Guide to Finding the Stolen Heart in The Forge

Getting Stolen Heart is part of the Raven 3 quest. You must complete the first two quests from the Raven NPC , get a key, and unlock the Red Cave to find the deposit with Stolen Heart. Below is a step-by-step guide to finding the Ore in The Forge:

Step 1: Completing the Raven NPC quests for the Red Cave Key

You can find Stolen Heart only in the Red Cave. Accessing it requires completing two quests from the Raven NPC. Here are the quests:

QuestsTasks
Raven 1– Kill 5 Crystal Spiders – Mine 10 Icy Pebbles – Bring 1 Aetherit
Raven 2– Kill 10 Diamond Spiders – Kill 1 Prismarine Spider – Bring 1 Snowite Ore

You can find the Raven NPC in a Camp, located in the southwest direction from the Spider Cave’s entrance in the Frostpire Expanse. Talk to the Raven, complete the tasks, and obtain its rewards. After that, the NPC will change its location to the left of the Red Cave’s entrance. The Red Cave is located in the southeast direction from the Wizard’s Tower in the Frostpire Expanse. You can take the second quest from the Raven NPC and complete it to receive the Red Cave Key. Use the key to open the Red Cave door and unlock new locations , enemies , and deposits.

Step 2: Mining the Rock

You must mine a special rock, Heart of The Island , to receive the Stolen Heart in The Forge. Its HP is usually over 30k, and you must use a Pickaxe with 650 base damage to break the rock. There is a 1 in 5,4321 chance of obtaining the ore from the rock. We recommend using the Prismatic Pickaxe with Runes that boost mining speed and luck. Additionally, you can activate the Dedicated Player skills to increase your luck stat.

Since it has a massive HP, breaking one takes longer. So, don’t mine the rock fully if you don’t see the Stolen Heart ore. Wait and return after some time, or try mining another rock.

Stone Heart is the Divine rarity Ore that has a 1 out of 5,4321 chance of dropping from the Heart of The Island rock. It provides a 15.4 times multiplier to the equipment’s base selling price and stats. You can sell it to the Greedy Cey NPC at a base price of 288.75 gold. The Ore’s trait provides a 20% chance to receive 3% lifesteal per hit passive to your armor .

Stone Heart Ore is a part of the Raven 3 quests, whose tasks are listed below:

  • Kill 25 Mini Demonic Spiders
  • Kill 10 Demonic Spiders
  • Kill 1 Demonic Queen Spider
  • Bring 1 Stolen Heart Ore

After completing this quest, you will receive the Berserker armor recipe. It is one of the best late-game armors from the Heavy class. So, obtaining the Stone Heart will be worthwhile for your future adventure into creepy caves.

What Are Blueprints in The Forge

Blueprints are basically recipes for special gear. When you get a blueprint, it will permanently add that item’s recipe to your forging menu. After that, you can craft the weapon whenever you want using the right materials and ores . The gear you get from Blueprints is usually stronger and rarer than regular weapons you’d normally forge.

All Blueprints in The Forge

Here are all the blueprints available in The Forge right now:

How to Get Stolen Heart in The Forge - 5

The first two blueprints are not available anymore since the Christmas Event is done and have been scrapped from the game. So, you can only get the other blueprints for now. Some players have reported seeing hints about other Blueprints like Wolf Armour dropping from bosses , but nothing’s been confirmed yet. We’ll update this guide when more Blueprints come out.

How to Get Blueprints in The Forge

You actually need to put in some work to get the blueprints available in the game. Here is the step-by-step process:

  1. Reach level 70 in The Forge. You need this level to access Frostpire Expanse POI , where you can meet Ferry Operator NPC , who can bring you to the new Hidden Maze POI in Iceberg Island.
  2. Use the Portal Tool to travel to Frostpire Expanse . When you reach, go to the dock , and you will see the NPC standing there.
  3. Talk to him and pay him 1 Coinite to go across the island. This is where you can buy the Blueprints from the Fungi Shop inside the Hidden Maze.

You can farm Coinites by breaking the Medium Red Crystals and Large Red Crystals in the Raven Cave area.

How to Use Blueprints in The Forge

Once you buy a Blueprint from Fungi Shop, it automatically unlocks in your forging system. You don’t need to do anything special to activate it.

Just head to your forge like you normally would. When you open the forging menu, you will see the new weapon recipes appear alongside your other options. The crafting works the same as any other weapon. You’ll need the right combination of ores to increase your chances of getting the specific weapon you want.

Remember that crafting results are still randomized, so you might need to forge multiple times before you get the exact weapon you’re after. Once you own a Blueprint, you can craft that weapon as many times as you want. So if you accidentally sell or lose your Hell Slayer, just forge another one when you have the materials.
