History of Forge Ignition

Overview

Forge Ignition is the Black Armory forge activity; this entry is the ignition at the Bergusia Forge in the European Dead Zone, in the southeast over the bridge beyond Sojourner's Camp. It was the final forge of the Black Armory content. The manifest lists power 750 (the Game Rant guide, written at launch, recommended 650 and the annual pass).

Walkthrough

1. Approach the central object to reignite the forge.
2. Waves 1 and 2: kill glowing blue enemies to drop batteries and throw 20 per wave into the forge's centre.
3. Wave 3: kill the Black Recluse, a Fallen Walker Tank; shoot its legs to break armour and expose the core.

Rewards

Per launch guide: Prime/Exotic engrams, weapon frames from other forges, the Exotic fusion rifle Jotunn via the questline. Ada-1 offered a daily bounty for one ignition (Modulus Report, 1,500 Glimmer). This is legacy content; current availability is unverified.
