High Seas Hero: Dig & Build Quick Forge Guide

To forge equipment quickly in High Seas Hero: Dig & Build, open the forge menu, enable the Quick Forge feature, and define your auto-stop and auto-salvage parameters before spending materials. This automation rolls equipment continuously, interrupts the queue only when potential upgrades appear, and breaks down unwanted drops into Forge EXP to raise your crafting level.

How Quick Forge Automates Crafting

Manual crafting requires tapping for every roll, comparing stats across equipment slots, and deciding whether to equip or scrap each piece individually. When farming daily voyages, resource digs, and campaign stages, stockpiling hundreds of materials makes manual inspection inefficient.

Quick Forge replaces this manual loop with automated crafting rolls:

Direct Material Consumption: The forge expends your stored crafting items in rapid succession across eligible gear slots.
Filter Evaluation: Each generated item is checked against your active auto-stop thresholds.
Instant Salvaging: Items that fail your criteria are scrapped immediately, preventing your bag from filling up mid-session.
EXP Recycling: Salvaged gear converts into Forge EXP, which levels up the forge and permanently increases the drop rate for higher-rarity gear on future crafts.

Recommended Quick Forge Filter Settings

Automated crafting stops only when a piece satisfies your designated conditions. If the thresholds are too loose, the forge halts constantly for minor sidegrades; if they are too strict, you risk burning materials without catching key secondary attributes.

Filter Setting	Target Configuration	Gameplay Purpose
Rarity Cutoff	Current baseline rarity (e.g., Epic)	Bypasses lower-tier loot that no longer improves your build
Combat Power (CP)	Auto-stop on higher CP	Halts crafting whenever an item offers a direct power increase
Substats	Critical Rate, Dodge, or Lifesteal	Catches pieces with essential build synergies regardless of raw CP
Batch Speed	Maximum available rate	Speeds up material consumption to level up Forge EXP faster

How to Execute a Quick Forge Run

Follow this sequence to run an automated crafting session without wasting resources:

Check material reserves: Ensure you have an adequate reserve of forging materials and gold so the batch does not stall after only a few attempts.
Identify weak equipment slots: Note the lowest-rarity or lowest-power items currently equipped across your crew.
Configure auto-stop and salvage rules: Set your auto-stop rarity to match your lowest equipped slot, enable pauses for higher CP or designated substats, and set everything below that threshold to auto-salvage.
Start the batch: Run Quick Forge and allow the automation to consume materials until it hits a trigger or exhausts the batch.
Evaluate flagged gear: Inspect the item that triggered the stop. Equip it if the primary attributes and substats fit your build, or dismantle it manually and resume the run if it is an unfavorable sidegrade.

Crafting Traps to Avoid

Leaving rarity filters too low: When your team transitions to a higher rarity tier, update your filter immediately. Leaving low rarity triggers active causes the automation to freeze repeatedly on obsolete loot.
Equipping raw CP over substat synergy: A minor increase in base defense or raw CP can reduce overall combat effectiveness if it replaces key offensive stats like Critical Rate or Lifesteal.
Burning materials right before a Forge Level upgrade: If your Forge EXP bar is close to leveling up through daily tasks or milestones, hold your materials. Waiting for the level-up ensures your subsequent crafts benefit from improved high-rarity drop odds.
