How to Max Out Your Skills in The Forge

Getting to level 5 on all these achievements takes time, but here are some shortcuts:

  • You can work on multiple achievements at once. When you’re out exploring, you’re mining rocks, killing monsters, and discovering areas all at the same time.
  • Don’t ignore crafting. Both Weapon Smith and Armor Smith give you powerful boosts, and you need better gear anyway as you progress through the game.
  • Play regularly to max out Dedicated Player. Those luck boosts really add up and affect everything from loot drops to resource gathering.

The achievement and skill system in The Forge is a core feature of making your character stronger. Every single thing you do in the game feeds into at least one achievement, so you’re always making progress even when you don’t realize it.

Start by focusing on the skills that match your playstyle, but eventually you want to max everything out. The boosts stack up fast, and you’ll feel the difference in how much stronger and faster your character becomes.
