Can forging fail in Dungeon Lootr?

Yes. The VIP gamepass description (+5% Forge Success Chance) confirms upgrades have a failure chance. The base rate is not published in any verified source, so plan material budgets with failures in mind.

What do Reforge Stones do?

They re-roll an item's stats. Use them on high-rarity gear you plan to keep — rerolling early-game Rares is the most common waste reported in system guides.

How do I get Forge Stones fast?

Codes are the fastest source — RAIDTIME, LOOTRISBACK and FORGESKIP all granted Forge Stone Bundles in September 2026. Passively, they come from dungeon zone materials and quest rewards.

Where is the Forge in Dungeon Lootr?

In the town lobby — talk to the Forge NPC and open the FORGE menu. The hub also holds the Merchant, Dante (title vendor) and the Quests board.

Does the Auto Forge gamepass improve success rate?

No. Auto Forge (99 Robux) automates the upgrading process. The success-rate boost is on VIP (120 Robux, +5% Forge Success Chance).

How does the Forge work in Dungeon Lootr?

Quick answer: The Forge NPC in the lobby upgrades your gear: open the FORGE menu, select a piece, check its material and Coin cost, then Upgrade. Forge Stones raise an item's level and Gear Score, Reforge Stones re-roll its stats — and upgrading can fail, which is why the VIP gamepass boosts Forge Success Chance by 5%.

The Forge basics: upgrade path step by step

The Forge is where dungeon loot becomes a build. Sports Rant's system walkthrough documents the exact flow: speak to the Forge NPC in the lobby, open the FORGE menu, select the gear you want to improve, review the required materials and Coin cost, then hit Upgrade. A successful upgrade raises the item's level and Gear Score, which is the gate for later dungeon difficulty tiers.

Different upgrades eat different materials — Iron Scrap and Gold Ore are the early staples you collect from dungeon zones, and the codes system exists partly to feed this economy (RAIDTIME grants 5 Forge Stones Bundles, FORGESKIP granted 3 Forge Stone + 3 Reforge Stone Bundles).

Forge Stones vs Reforge Stones

	Forge Stones	Reforge Stones
What they do	Upgrade an item's level and Gear Score	Re-roll an item's stats
Can it fail?	Yes — see success rate below	Reroll outcome is random by design
Where they come from	Codes (RAIDTIME, LOOTRISBACK, FORGESKIP), dungeon materials	Codes (20KPLAYERS, ARCHON-era rewards), dungeon drops

Roblox Database's line on why both stones matter: "The Forge takes Forge Stones and improves a piece, and Reforge Stones roll its stats again. Those two stones are the reason the code list is worth reading." In practice: Forge Stones are your progression currency (raise Gear Score to unlock content), Reforge Stones are your min-max currency (fix bad stat spreads on gear you already like).

The hidden mechanic: upgrades can fail

This is the detail almost every player misses, and it is documented in the least obvious place — the shop. Roblox Database's review of the gamepass descriptions notes that VIP lists a 5% boost to Forge Success Chance, and that one word, success, means what it says: feed a piece of gear and stones into the Forge and you may get nothing back.

Nothing in the verified sources publishes the base success rate, so we will not invent a number. The practical consequences are clear though: budget for failures when planning stone consumption, prioritize upgrades on gear you will keep for many levels, and treat the Auto Forge pass (99 Robux) as a convenience purchase, not a success-rate one — its documented function is automating the process, not improving odds.

What to upgrade first (and what to leave alone)

Assembling the sources' consensus for a fresh account:

Upgrade your Starter Compensation weapon first — the Tidemaker Katana (Celestial) is documented as strong enough to carry your first dungeons, so raising its Gear Score extends its useful life deep into the mid-game.
Forge Stones follow your main class's weapon, then armor pieces gated by the next difficulty tier you want to enter (Hard, then Nightmare).
Save Reforge Stones for Exotic-tier and above — rerolling a Rare you will scrap at level 40 is the classic waste. The exotic craft chain (5 Exotic Ore per Exotic Ingot) is where re-rolling actually pays.
Do not pre-buy stones for classes you might swap — gear bonds to your build plans, and Sports Rant's core advice is to build around one main class before heavy forging.

Codes remain the pressure release valve for the whole economy: between RAIDTIME, LOOTRISBACK and FORGESKIP, September's active code set alone covered 11 Forge Stone Bundles and 8 Reforge Stone Bundles across sources.
