The Black Forge asks for a Flametal Mace and a single Iolite from the Ashlands before it gives up Storm Star, and lightning comes with it. It deals 135 blunt and 10 lightning damage. At 145 total damage it ranks 3rd among clubs, so it is a step on the ladder rather than the top of it. Blunt and lightning damage both hurt the Lava Blob, Morgen and Blob more than most things, and that is what you carry it for.
How to Craft
You craft it at a level 4 Black Forge from:
- 1x Flametal Mace: made at a Black Forge.
- 8x Flametal: smelted from Flametal Ore in a Blast Furnace.
- 1x Iolite: found in the Charred Fortresses of the Ashlands.

| Flametal | Ashlands | Blast Furnace | spawn FlametalNew

| Iolite | Ashlands | - | spawn GemstoneBlue

When to Use It
Use it in the late game. Flametal comes from the Ashlands, the furthest south the map goes.
Upgrades
You can upgrade it 3 times after crafting, and each level wants the station built one step further up than the last. The other figures on this page are for quality 1, so this table is the ladder your own copy sits somewhere on:
| Quality | Crafting Station | Blunt | Lightning | Durability | Resources |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Black forge (Level 4) | 135 | 10 | 150 |
|
| 2 | Black forge (Level 5) | 141 | 10 | 200 | |
| 3 | Black forge (Level 6) | 147 | 10 | 250 | |
| 4 | Black forge (Level 7) | 153 | 10 | 300 |

Properties
This puts chain lightning on the best stagger secondary in the game. Iolite adds 10 lightning and gives the primary attack a 25% chance of chain lightning: 75 damage that ignores skill and cannot be blocked or dodged. It has an 80% chance to bounce to 2 to 4 more targets within 8 metres.
Blunt is the type the Charred are hit by anyway, so there is very little in the Ashlands this pairing does not answer.
Notes
- The primary attack moves you forward 0.66 m with each swing, closing the distance the knockback just opened.
- The secondary attack narrows to a 30 degree arc, down from the primary's 90, so it is a single-target finisher and not a crowd tool.
- Upgrading does not raise lightning: it is 10 at quality 1 and still 10 at quality 4. The upgrades raise blunt from 135 to 153.
