Best The Forge Gauntlet Recipes

by

The Gauntlet is a heavy melee weapon in The Forge that focuses on raw punching power instead of sharp strikes.

While it does not hit as fast or as precisely as swords or spears, it shines in close range combat, where consistent damage matters more than reach.

If you enjoy brawling enemies head on, crafting a Gauntlet can be a fun and effective choice. However, the real challenge is gathering the correct ores and knowing which recipe gives you the best value.

This guide covers the best Gauntlet recipe in The Forge, the required materials, weapon stats, and whether it is worth investing your resources.

Forging the Best Gauntlet in The Forge

There are three Gauntlet variants available in the game.

While each has its own theme, they all fall under the same crafting logic and rely heavily on ore investment.

Among these, the Iron Hand style Gauntlet crafted with high tier ores delivers the strongest base damage and is generally considered the best option if you are committing resources.

Is the Gauntlet Worth Crafting

The Gauntlet is not the highest damage weapon class in The Forge, but it has its strengths.

Pros

  • Strong base damage for melee combat

  • Simple playstyle that works well against single targets

  • Fun alternative to swords and spears

Cons

  • Short range compared to other melee weapons

  • Requires rare ores that could be used for armor instead
