Hey there, fellow Forge masters! If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably heard whispers about the legendary Demonite Key and the incredible Demonic Pickaxe it unlocks. Let me tell you, this isn’t just another item – it’s your ticket to becoming a true mining powerhouse in The Forge. After spending countless hours exploring every nook and cranny of the Forgotten Kingdom, I’m here to share everything I’ve learned about obtaining this elusive key and the amazing rewards that follow.
For those new to the game, The Forge is an incredible Roblox experience where you step into the boots of a Forge Master, tasked with mining ores, crafting powerful weapons and armor, and battling through dangerous caves. The game features multiple regions, each with unique challenges and resources. As you progress, you’ll unlock new areas, discover rare ores, and work your way toward the ultimate goal – obtaining the best equipment in the game.
What makes The Forge so addictive is its perfect blend of mining, crafting, and combat. You’re not just clicking rocks all day; you’re strategizing which ores to collect, how to craft the most powerful gear, and which paths to take through increasingly dangerous territories.
I’ll be honest – I wasn’t immediately hooked on The Forge when I first started. But something about the game’s progression system kept me coming back. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of finally breaking through to a new area, or the excitement of finding that one rare ore you’ve been hunting for hours.
What really keeps me engaged is the sense of accomplishment. Every pickaxe upgrade feels meaningful, every new weapon crafted is a testament to your dedication, and every region unlocked opens up new possibilities. The Demonite Key quest, in particular, represents the pinnacle of this progression journey – it’s not easy, but the rewards are absolutely worth it.
Alright, let’s get to the meat of this guide. The Demonite Key is your ticket to the Demonic Pickaxe, arguably the best mining tool in the game. Here’s exactly how to get it:
Before you can even think about the Demonite Key, you need to unlock the Forgotten Kingdom. This requires:
The Demonite Key comes from an NPC named Demon Skal, who’s hiding in a pretty tricky location:
When you find Skal, interact with him and choose the first dialogue option. He’ll ask for:
Once you gather these rare ores, return to Skal and hand them over. He’ll reward you with the Demonite Key.
With key in hand, head to the locked Demonic Pickaxe room (the ominous black door in the Volcanic Depths) and use the key to unlock it. Inside, you’ll find the red Demonic Pickaxe sitting on a black throne, ready to be purchased for $500,000.
Getting those 3 Demonite ores is the real challenge here. With a drop rate of 1 in 3,666 from Volcanic Rocks, you’ll need a solid strategy. Here are my best tips:
The best spots for farming Demonite are:
Here’s my personal farming routine:
Since Demonite has such a low drop rate, maximizing your luck is crucial. Here are all the ways to boost your chances:
The secret is to stack as many luck-boosting methods as possible. I’ve found that combining:
This combination can significantly improve your chances, though the grind is still substantial.
After all that effort, you might be wondering if the Demonic Pickaxe is really worth it. Let me break it down:
| Pickaxe | Power | Luck | Rune Slots | Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Demonic | 175 | +47.5% | 3 | $500,000 |
| Arcane | 115 | +50% | 3 | $125,000 |
| Magma | 135 | +46% | 2 | $150,000 |
The Demonic Pickaxe is absolutely worth it for several reasons:
The only real drawback is the -15% mining speed, but this is easily offset by:
As of May 2024, The Forge has seen several updates that affect the Demonite Key quest:
The current endgame meta revolves around:
After hundreds of hours in The Forge, I’ve picked up some advanced strategies that aren’t commonly discussed:
To afford that $500,000 Demonic Pickaxe:
The area around Skal is dangerous:
From the veteran players I’ve spoken with:
Demonite ore has a 1 in 3,666 chance of dropping from Volcanic Rocks. This makes it one of the rarest ores in the game, which is why the Demonite Key is such a prestigious item.
No, the Demonite Key quest is available as soon as you can access the Volcanic Depths. However, having better equipment and pickaxes will make the process much easier.
Yes, you can obtain multiple Demonite Keys by completing Skal’s quest multiple times. However, you only need one to permanently unlock the Demonic Pickaxe room.
The fastest methods include selling high-tier armor, completing quests, farming elite enemies for valuable essences, and participating in special events that offer bonus rewards.
While not necessary, the Angel race provides significant luck bonuses that make Demonite farming much more efficient. If you’re serious about obtaining the key, I highly recommend switching to Angel.
Currently, there’s no trading system in The Forge, so you cannot buy Demonite ore from other players. You must farm it yourself.
This varies greatly depending on your luck and farming efficiency. With average luck and dedicated farming, expect to spend 10-20 hours. With maximum luck boosts, you might reduce this to 5-10 hours.
The Demonite Key is a permanent item that stays in your inventory once obtained. You cannot lose it unless you delete your character or account.
There you have it – everything you need to know about obtaining the Demonite Key in The Forge! Yes, it’s a challenging grind, but trust me when I say the feeling of finally unlocking that Demonic Pickaxe room is absolutely incredible.
Remember, the journey is just as important as the destination. Along the way, you’ll improve your mining skills, learn efficient combat strategies, and probably make some friends in the community. The Demonite Key isn’t just an item – it’s a testament to your dedication and skill as a Forge Master.
Now it’s your turn! Grab your best pickaxe, stock up on luck potions, and head to those Volcanic Depths. I’d love to hear about your experiences farming for Demonite or any strategies you’ve discovered that I haven’t mentioned.
