Ice Man’s quest, officially called “Melting The Geyser,” is one of the most misunderstood missions in The Forge. Located in the frozen wastelands of Frostspire Expanse, this NPC stands near the entrance waiting for brave adventurers like you to help him with his heating problem.
What makes this quest tricky? Ice Man needs hot materials from a completely different area! While he lives in the icy third island, his required ores only spawn in the scorching Volcanic Depths. This geographical disconnect trips up most players who waste hours searching in the wrong locations.
I’ll be honest – when I first encountered Ice Man, I almost gave up. After spending two hours mining in Frostspire Expanse with zero results, I was ready to call it quits. But then I discovered the secret: the quest teaches you about The Forge’s interconnected world design.
What I love most is how this quest forces you to explore different biomes and understand the game’s progression system. It’s not just about mining; it’s about becoming a true Forge adventurer who knows where to find every resource.
Before you even think about starting this quest, you need to reach Level 70. Frostspire Expanse is the third island in The Forge, and it’s locked behind this level requirement. Trust me, I learned this the hard way after trying to access it at Level 65!
Once you hit Level 70, use your Portal Tool to teleport to Frostspire Expanse. Ice Man stands right near the entrance – you can’t miss him with his icy appearance and quest marker above his head.
Ice Man requests three specific ores from the Volcanic Depths:
Here’s where most players get confused. You need to travel back to the Forgotten Kingdom (second island) and locate the Ruined Cave. Follow the path on the right until you find the Ashen Passage – this leads to Volcanic Depths.
In Volcanic Depths, focus exclusively on Volcanic Rocks. These are the only rocks that drop your required ores. Here’s my pro tip: bring your best pickaxe and clear clusters systematically. I recommend starting with the outer rocks and working your way inward to maximize efficiency.
Once you have all 9 ores (1 Demonite, 3 Fireite, 5 Magmaite), head back to Frostspire Expanse and turn them into Ice Man. The quest completes instantly, and while rewards are currently TBA (To Be Announced), you’ll get valuable XP and unlock future content.
While Ice Man’s specific rewards aren’t finalized yet, quests in The Forge typically provide:

Ice Man’s quest was added as part of this major content expansion, making it one of the newer challenges in the game.
I’ve developed a specific route through Volcanic Depths that maximizes ore collection:
Don’t even attempt this quest without at least a Mythril Pickaxe. The mining time difference is massive, and you’ll thank me later when you’re not spending 10 minutes per rock.
A: You need Level 70 to access Frostspire Expanse where Ice Man is located.
A: Absolutely! I completed it solo, though having friends makes the mining faster.
A: With proper preparation, about 30-45 minutes. Without knowing where to go? Hours!
A: While specific rewards aren’t announced, the XP and quest completion progress are valuable for overall game advancement.
A: Currently, these ores aren’t available in shops – you must mine them yourself.
Ice Man’s “Melting The Geyser” quest might seem intimidating at first, but with this guide, you’re fully prepared to tackle it efficiently. Remember: Level 70, Volcanic Depths, and focus on Volcanic Rocks – that’s the secret formula!
I’ve personally completed this quest multiple times, and each run gets faster as you learn the optimal routes and strategies. The key is understanding that The Forge connects different areas in unexpected ways, and Ice Man’s quest is the perfect example of this brilliant game design.
