Hey there, fellow Forge enthusiast! If you’re anything like me, you’ve probably spent countless hours grinding away in The Forge, dreaming of crafting those legendary weapons that make other players stop and stare. Well, I’ve got some exciting news for you – blueprints are the game-changer you’ve been waiting for!
Let me walk you through everything I’ve discovered about all blueprints in The Forge after hundreds of hours of gameplay and research. Trust me, this guide will save you countless hours of frustration and help you build the ultimate arsenal.
Blueprints are basically special recipes that unlock unique, powerful weapons in The Forge. When I first encountered them during the Winter Expansion update, I was blown away by what they could do. Unlike regular forging where you’re at the mercy of RNG, blueprints permanently add specific weapon recipes to your forging menu.
What makes blueprints so special? The gear you craft from them is significantly stronger and rarer than anything you’ll get from regular forging. I’ve personally tested these weapons, and let me tell you – the difference is night and day. Whether you’re tackling high-level bosses or showing off in PvP, blueprint weapons give you that competitive edge you’ve been craving.
I’ll be honest – before blueprints, I was getting pretty bored with The Forge. Grinding the same weapons over and over felt repetitive, and my progress had hit a wall. But blueprints completely revitalized the game for me!
There’s something incredibly satisfying about finally unlocking that Colossal Gemblade blueprint and crafting it for the first time. The way it shimmers in your inventory, the raw power it delivers in combat – it’s moments like these that keep me coming back for more. Plus, the journey to get these blueprints has taken me to parts of The Forge I never knew existed, making the exploration aspect so much more rewarding.
After extensive research and testing, I’ve compiled the most comprehensive blueprint list available. Here’s everything you need to know:

Alright, here’s the part you’ve been waiting for! I’ve spent countless hours perfecting this method, and I’m going to share exactly how to get every available blueprint:
First things first – you need to hit level 70. I know it sounds like a grind, but trust me, it’s worth it. If you’re struggling to level up, check out my The Forge Beginner Progression Guide for some pro tips that helped me level up faster.
Once you’re level 70, you’ll unlock access to the Frostpire Expanse POI. This icy area is where the magic happens!
Head to the dock in Frostpire Expanse and look for the Ferry Operator NPC. He’s usually hanging out near the water, easy to spot with his distinctive outfit.
Here’s where things get interesting – you’ll need to pay 1 Coinite to travel to the Hidden Maze. Don’t worry if you’re short on Coinite; I’ve found that breaking Medium and Large Red Crystals in the Raven Cave area is the most efficient way to farm them.
Once you reach the Hidden Maze on Iceberg Island, look for the Fungi Shop. The Fungi Merchant inside sells all the currently available blueprints. Just press ‘E’ to interact with him and browse his selection.
After testing every blueprint extensively, here’s my honest opinion on which ones are worth your hard-earned cash:
I’ve learned these lessons the hard way, so you don’t have to:
Blueprints are expensive! I recommend saving up at least $500,000 before you start shopping. Focus on the S-Tier blueprints first – they’ll give you the most bang for your buck.
Just because you have a blueprint doesn’t mean you’ll craft the weapon every time. The RNG is still in play! I always use the best ores I have when crafting blueprint weapons to maximize my chances.
Don’t rush to buy all blueprints at once. I suggest buying one, mastering it, then moving to the next. This approach helped me understand each weapon’s strengths and weaknesses better.
The developers have been hinting at new blueprints coming in future updates. I’ve heard rumors about:
Keep an eye on the official Discord and patch notes for the latest information. I’ll be updating this guide as soon as new blueprints drop!
I’ve made these mistakes so you don’t have to:
Absolutely! If you’re serious about The Forge, blueprints are essential for endgame content. The power boost is significant, and they make grinding much more enjoyable.
Nope! Once you buy a blueprint, it’s permanently unlocked in your forging menu. You can craft the weapon as many times as you want.
Yes! Blueprint weapons can be enchanted with runes just like regular weapons. In fact, they’re even better for rune builds since their base stats are higher.
The developers haven’t confirmed anything, but based on past events, there’s a chance Christmas event blueprints might return next holiday season.
Major updates usually include new blueprints. The Winter Expansion added 13 new ones, so I expect similar numbers in future updates.
There you have it – everything you need to know about all blueprints in The Forge! I’ve spent countless hours testing and researching this information to save you time and help you dominate the game.
