The Forge Sensei Moro Quest Guide

If you’re new to The Forge, getting a grip on the game’s core mechanics can feel a bit overwhelming. That’s where Sensei Moro comes in—he’s basically your in-game mentor who teaches you everything from mining basics to forging powerful gear and combat skills. Mastering his quests early on sets you up for smooth sailing as you dive deeper into the game’s world.

Quick Overview: What to Expect from Sensei Moro’s Questline

Sensei Moro is the tutorial NPC who guides you through the essential skills of mining, forging, combat, and upgrading your equipment. You’ll start by grabbing your first Stone pickaxe, then mine pebbles (which break into ores), forge your first weapons through a fun forging minigame, and gradually upgrade your tools. Along the way, you’ll unlock access to the Forgotten Kingdom—a new zone accessed via a portal after reaching level 10 and completing initial quests—packed with rare materials and tougher challenges.

You can find Moro in two key locations: Stonewake’s Cross, where the journey begins, and later in the Forgotten Kingdom, where advanced quests await. Before heading to the Forgotten Kingdom, it’s wise to pick up a Health Potion I from Maria at Stonewake’s Cross to boost your survival chances. Completing his quests rewards you with valuable XP, in-game cash, and the handy portal tool that lets you fast travel—making your life much easier.

Where Can I Find Sensei Moro?

Sensei Moro first appears at Stonewake’s Cross, a central hub that’s easy to spot thanks to its large stone archway and bustling player activity. Just follow the main path from the spawn point, and you’ll see him near the crafting benches.

Once you complete the initial quests and reach level 10, you gain access to the portal tool. Use it to teleport to the Forgotten Kingdom. From the spawn point there, walk straight, and you’ll find Sensei Moro again near the ancient forging station, ready to teach you more advanced techniques. Other NPCs like Captain Rowan, Bard, and the Goblin King also become available here, offering new quests and progression opportunities.
