How to use the Forgehammer in Kingshot

When I finally reached Town Center level 20 in Kingshot, I was excited that I could finally use the Forgehammer. I had been randomly getting it from events, and now I could finally upgrade gear with it. I quickly realized that actually, I couldn’t. At least not until I had the right equipment.

The Forgehammer in Kingshot can only be used in the Mastery Forging of Mythic gear. That means you can only spend them on pieces of armor with a Mythic tag on them, which have a golden background like that of the Forgehammer and of SSR character-exclusive gear.

If you don’t have Mythic gear, you need to get at least one piece first to use the Forgehammer.

How to get Mythic gear in Kingshot

If you’re a free-to-play governor, the best way to get Mythic gear is in the Shop under the Arena tab, where you can buy one Custom Mythic Hero Gear Chest per week for 12,000 Arena Tokens. I reached this amount after 18 days of playing five Arena matches per day. You can get there faster than I did if you buy extra daily Arena attempts with Gems and rank high on the daily and seasonal Leaderboards.

If you’re a spender, you can buy packs with Lucky Hero Gear Chests for a chance to get extra Mythic Gear, though it’s not a guaranteed drop or choice like in the Arena chest.

Once you select the Mythic Gear you want, equip it in your strongest SSR hero. A Judicator’s Armet for Jabel was my pick. Then, on the gear menu, you can select the armor, select Mastery Forging, and tap the Forge button to increase one Mastery level of that Mythic armor piece for 10 Forgehammers. Doing so will give a 10% boost to the gear’s Strength and Stats, which is why it’s important that you also enhance the gear with materials as much as possible.

Now, keep grinding Kingshot events to get extra Forgehammers or wait for special premium packs to buy some more and level up your gear.
