The Forge on Roblox is more than just mining and crafting—it's about using smart tools to get ahead. One of the coolest tools you’ll find are totems. They’re like little power stations you place on the ground that give you and your team buffs to make mining, fighting, or leveling up way easier.
Here's a quick answer: Totems in The Forge are consumable items that create area buffs lasting for 30 minutes. They boost things like mining speed, luck for better drops, combat damage, health regen, and XP gain. You place them on the ground, and anyone nearby gets the buff.
What Are Totems and How Do They Work?
Totems are special consumables you can buy and use in The Forge. Unlike potions that affect only you, totems create an area-of-effect buff that benefits all players in range. Once placed, they last for a set time and then disappear. You have to stay near them to keep enjoying the effects.
The Different Totems You Can Get
Here’s a breakdown of the main totems you’ll find in The Forge and what they do:
| Totem Name | Effect | Duration | Best Use Case |
|---|---|---|---|
| XP Totem | 2× XP gain | 30 minutes | Leveling up faster (one of the best investments for fast leveling) |
| Luck Totem | +50% luck for better drops and ores | 30 minutes | Farming rare ores and loot (important for better farming) |
| Miner Totem | +20% mining speed, +15% mining damage | 30 minutes | Long mining sessions |
| Warrior Totem | Increases damage in combat | 30 minutes | Boss fights and PvE battles |
| Vitality Totem | Health regeneration over time | 30 minutes | Tough fights or dangerous zones |
How to Use Totems Effectively
To get the most out of totems, place them where you plan to stay for a while, like near mining nodes or boss spawn points. Since the buff only works within the totem’s radius, don’t wander too far. Combining totems with potions (like Luck or Miner potions) can supercharge your results.
Where to Get Totems
Totems in The Forge are exclusively purchased with Robux, the premium currency, from the in-game shop. They cannot be bought with in-game coins. You can also get some totems from redeeming codes that the developers release during events or milestones. Keep an eye on official social channels or community Discords for these freebies.
Prices for single totems generally range from about 49 to 75 Robux, with discounted bundles available for buying multiples.
Why Totems Matter
From my experience playing The Forge, using totems changes the game. When I’m grinding ores, a Miner Totem plus a Luck Totem means I get more resources faster and better drops. In boss fights, the Warrior and Vitality Totems help me survive longer and deal more damage. XP Totems are especially valuable for leveling up quickly. They’re essential if you want to level up fast and craft legendary gear without wasting time.
Quick Tips
- Always combine a Miner Totem with a Luck Totem for mining runs.
- Use Warrior and Vitality Totems together in tough fights.
- XP Totems are great when you want to level up fast.
- Remember to stay close to the totem to keep the buffs active.
- Redeem codes regularly to get free totems and rerolls.
Totems in The Forge are game-changers that help you mine better, fight stronger, and level faster. Knowing what each totem does and when to use it will give you a serious edge. So next time you’re forging your path, don’t forget to bring a totem or two along.
