The Forge Race Tier List: Best Races Ranked & Why You Need a Goblin
We need to talk about the race system in The Forge. I know everyone is obsessed with Angel and Demon. They are the flashy, overpowered poster children of the game. But let's be real: unless you have infinite or insane luck, you might not get them.
- S Tier: The Game Changers
- A Tier: The Solid Contenders
- B/C Tier: The "Mid" Zone
- D/F Tier: Reroll Immediately
- FAQ: Common Questions
- Summary

Does that mean your character is ruined? Absolutely not. In fact, some utility races are arguably more important for your long-term progression than the combat ones. Today, we are breaking down every single race to tell you which ones are hidden gems and which ones are total trash.
Before we dive in, if you are low on spins, go to your settings and type in the code 400k! (don't forget the exclamation point). That's 8 free rerolls on the house.
| Tier | Race | Key Ability / Stat | Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|
| S | Angel | 50% Luck, Infinite Stamina, Flight | The Best. Broken stats and huge luck boost. |
| Demon | Hellfire, Teleport Dash, High DMG | The Best. Top-tier DPS and mobility. | |
| Goblin | 15% Shop Discount | Must Have. Keep in a slot just for buying items cheap. | |
| Dwarf | 15% Mining Speed | Utility King. Best for mining resources. | |
| A | Dragonborn | Burn Damage, +Phys DMG | Best Alternative. Great for PvE farming. |
| Shadow | 15% Dodge Chance | Solid. Good "budget Demon" for PvP. | |
| Golem | +Atk Speed (Heavy Weapons), +HP | Niche. Only good if you use heavy weapons. | |
| B | Minotaur | Rage Mode (Low HP) | Mid. Abilities are inconsistent and hitbox is weird. |
| C | Elf | 7% Luck, +Stamina | Okay Starter. Decent but lacks power. |
| Undead | Revive (50% HP) | Weak. Cooldown (5 mins) is way too long. | |
| Orc | High DMG, -Speed | Clunky. Makes you too slow and big. | |
| D | Zombie | Health Regen | Trap. You lose -25% Max HP. Not worth it. |
| F | Human | 3% XP / Luck | Useless. Reroll immediately. |
↖ S Tier: The Game Changers
These races either break the game's combat mechanics or offer utility you literally cannot live without.
1. Angel & Demon — The "Broken" Duo
If you are lucky enough to roll these, you've won the lottery.
Angel: It's not just strong; it's unfair. You get a massive 50% Luck Boost, which is huge for drops. Add in infinite stamina when low on health, flight mechanics, and a chance to Smite enemies? It's the undisputed king.
2. Goblin — The "Economy King" (Must Have)
Listen closely: Even if you have a Demon main, you need a Goblin alt.
The Secret Weapon: A flat 15% discount in shops.
3. Dwarf — The Miner's Best Friend
If you spend time grinding resources, do not sleep on the Dwarf.
The Stat:15% Mining Speed + 5% Forging Luck.
↖ A Tier: The Solid Contenders
Can't get a Legendary? These Epics are fantastic alternatives that can carry you to the endgame.
1. Dragonborn — The PvE Powerhouse
Honestly, this is the best "budget Demon" you can get.
Why it's good:
It gives you 12% Physical Damage and a 40% chance to burn enemies.
2. Golem — Heavy Weapon Specialists
This race is very specific.
The Condition:
If you use Colossal Swords or Great Axes, the 15% attack speed buff is a godsend.
3. Shadow — The Dodge Master
Think of this as a "Demon Lite."
- The Gimmick:
You have a 15% chance to turn into a shadow and completely dodge an attack.
↖ B/C Tier: The "Mid" Zone
These are okay for starting out, but you should aim to reroll them eventually.
| Tier | Race | Key Features | Drawbacks / Analysis |
|---|---|---|---|
| B | Minotaur | "Rage Mode" activates at low HP. | Inconsistent. Hitbox gets weirdly wide; benefits aren't as good as Dragonborn. |
| C | Elf | 7% Luck (good for beginners) + Stamina regen. | Weak. Lacks offensive power; best of the lower tiers. |
| C | Orc | High Damage and Health. | Clunky. Makes you huge, slow, and an easy target with low stamina. |
| C | Undead | "Revive" heals 50% HP when low. | Unreliable. The 5-minute cooldown makes the ability useless in most fights. |
↖ D/F Tier: Reroll Immediately
If you see these on your character sheet, get rid of them. Now.
- Zombie (D Tier): This is a trap. Sure, you regenerate health, but you lose 25% of your Max Health. In The Forge, getting one-shot is a real threat, so lowering your HP cap is a terrible idea. Even basic armor heals you better than this race.
↖ FAQ: Common Questions
Q: Should I use a race slot for Goblin?
A: Absolutely. You get extra slots at Level 30 and Level 100. The meta strategy is to have your main combat race (Angel/Demon/Dragonborn) in Slot 1, and a Goblin in Slot 2. Swap to Goblin whenever you need to buy expensive gear.
Q: How do I get more rerolls without Robux?
A: You have to join the game's Discord server to catch new codes like 400k!. Do not waste Robux buying spins unless you have money to burn—the rates for Legendaries are brutal.
Q: Which is better, Shadow or Dragonborn?
A: It depends on your playstyle. If you want to survive longer in fights by dodging, go Shadow. If you want to kill things faster with burn damage (DPS), go Dragonborn.
↖ Summary
In The Forge, your race isn't just a cosmetic tag—it defines your role.
1. The Goal: Aim for Angel or Demon for raw power.
2. The Strategy: Keep a Goblin alt for the 15% shop discount and a Dwarf for mining sessions.
3. The Backup: If you run out of spins, settle for Dragonborn. It is strong, reliable, and won't let you down in a fight.
