Combat Mastery Unlock Route
Unlock / Combat Mastery, Anvil recipe, Mini-Forge recipe, and trinket slot
Combat Mastery unlocks the trinket slot plus the Anvil and Mini-Forge recipes. Treat it as the point where combat builds move from gear collection into rerolling, forging, and home-based tuning.
Anvil Crafting and Reroll Costs
Anvil / 50 Iron Bars, 3 Iridium Bars per reroll, and 10-minute processing
The Anvil is crafted with 50 Iron Bars after Combat Mastery. Each trinket reroll consumes 3 Iridium Bars from inventory and takes 10 in-game minutes, so it belongs beside Iridium and trinket storage.
Trinket Reroll Priorities
Trinkets / Fairy Box, Ice Rod, Magic Quiver, Parrot Egg, and Golden Spur
Anvil value depends on which stat can change. Fairy Box and Parrot Egg reroll levels, Ice Rod and Magic Quiver reroll performance ranges, and Golden Spur rerolls speed duration.
Mini-Forge Crafting Route
Mini-Forge / 5 Dragon Teeth, 10 Iron Bars, 10 Gold Bars, and 5 Iridium Bars
Mini-Forge is crafted after Combat Mastery with 5 Dragon Teeth, 10 Iron Bars, 10 Gold Bars, and 5 Iridium Bars. It acts exactly like the Volcano Forge and can be placed anywhere.
Home Forge Layout
Layout / Cinder Shards, gems, rings, weapons, tools, and storage lanes
The Mini-Forge removes the need to visit Volcano floor 10 for every forge session. Build a compact home station with Cinder Shards, gems, rings, tools, Galaxy Souls, and spare weapons nearby.
Iridium and Cinder Shard Economy
Economy / Anvil rerolls, Mini-Forge craft, weapon forging, ring combining, and enchantments
Anvil rerolls burn Iridium Bars while Mini-Forge and Forge work also pressure Iridium, Cinder Shards, gems, and Prismatic Shards. Plan a spending order before rerolling every trinket.
