Reforge Anvil
You can now craft a reforge anvil, allowing you to have the blacksmith’s anvil on your island.
This guide will only cover the basic reforges, ones that don’t require any Reforging Stones or Dungeon Items.
Reforging everything is now cheaper. Yay!
Reforging Accessories (Talismans)
Godly no longer grants Crit Chance. Neither does Zealous. So, reforge only as many talismans as you need to Unpleasant for the Crit Chance (80%). If you’re lazy, then just reforge all of your common through epic talismans to Itchy, and then your legendary talismans to Strong.
However, if you have money, the best reforge combo for damage per second (slayers and non-dragons/endstone protectors) is:
- Legendary – Strong
- Epic, Uncommon – Strange
- Rare – Forceful
- Common – Silky (from reforge stone Luxurious Spool)
The reason we have 80% Crit Chance is because we usually have a Crit III Potion active when attacking, which gives Crit Chance +20% and Crit Damage +30%.
You can reforge the entire talisman bag at once, by the way.
Note
Dragons and Endstone Protectors aren’t affected by Atk Spd, and you can hit them as fast as you can click (up to Hypixel’s limit of 20 cps). So, if you’re farming these, then reforge all of your talismans to Forceful, and use 3/4 Elegant Tux and the Tarantula Helmet, because the Tarantula Helmet’s bonus is it grants you 1 Crit Damage per 10 Strength.
Swords
The best reforge for swords is Fabled, which requires a Dragon Claw (rare drop from Dragons).
If you have a Midas, then you’ll want the Gilded reforge, which comes from a Midas’ Jewel reforge stone.
The best all-round normal reforge for swords is Legendary, if you can’t afford a Dragon Claw.
As most players will struggle to reach 80% Crit Chance, it’s a debate whether Legendary or Sharp is the best. If you need the extra Crit Chance, then go for Sharp, as it gives you the Crit Chance.
The Epic reforge also isn’t that bad, but you should do a damage test to see which one fits your stats the best.
Depending on your stats, you might want to go for Spicy instead. Spicy grants more Crit Strength. If more of your talismans have Strength, then you might want to opt for Spicy.
Update: After floor 7 came out, the best reforge for Swords is Withered, which you can get from the Wither Blood reforge stone.
For magical swords (like a Hyperion), the best reforge would be Heroic (obtained from the blacksmith), as it provides the most intelligence.
Bows
The best all-round reforge for bows Unreal. It gives Crit Chance. Depending on your stats, you might want to go for Rapid instead. For my stats at least, Unreal deals more damage than Rapid.
If you play dungeons, then the Precise reforge gives you the exact same stats as Unreal, but grants an additional 10% damage if you hit the enemy in the head.
Update: After floor 4 has come out, the best reforge for Bows (especially Bonemerangs) is Spiritual, which you can get from the Spirit Stone.
Armors
If you can afford it, use the Dragon Horn reforging stone to apply the Renowned reforge to your armor. Do note that the Dragon Horn is a rare drop from a Superior Dragon, meaning that this stone is very expensive… and you need 4 of them (1 to apply to each piece) to fully max out your armor.
The best all-round normal reforge for damage is Fierce. For a Berserker in dungeons, Fierce-reforged Adaptive Armor is pretty good.
You can no longer get Godly on your armor pieces. You don’t want it though, since Godly’s bonus stats are much worse than Fierce or Pure.
If you need slightly more Crit Chance than Fierce, then go for Pure.
If you want Intelligence, then go for Necrotic, which comes from the Necrotic Brooch reforge stone. For a dungeons mage setup, you’ll want your Chestplate to Loving (from the Red Scarf reforge stone), and the rest to Necrotic.
Update: It’s still Necrotic/Loving for Mage setups/magic damage, but for physical damage, it’s now Ancient from a Precursor Gear.
Fuming Hot Potato Books
When used in the Reforge Anvil in Advanced Reforging, each Fuming Hot Potato Book will reduce the Anvil Uses on your weapon by 1. This could be a bug or a feature, as we have no confirmation by the admins, but it hasn’t been patched yet if it is a bug.
Changes to Dragons
You can no longer get an AOTD when you get a superior dragon. Instead, that drop is replaced with a Dragon Horn, which allows you to apply a reforge that grants a 1% increase to all your stats.
You can get the rest of these stones as random drops from Dragons. The Dragon Scale and Dragon Claw are rare drops from all dragons.
Hope this guide helps you out in the new update!
