Blacksmith recipes are free items that any player can easily gain access to and make in Genshin Impact. To forge items, you will need to gather ore from around the map. To help with this, you can check out the ore farming guide here.

The ore can then be processed into several different types of items, including weapons for those who gather prototypes from the weekly boss fights. Like many things in the game, most forging recipes will need to be unlocked.

Players should also note that forging an item takes time - although the amount of time it will take for an item to complete will vary. Here's every recipe you can craft with forging.

Updated on August 13, 2021 by Jessica Thomas: One of the best resources you can use in Genshin Impact is the forge. Going to a blacksmith in the game allows you to create a variety of great products from mined ore. Throughout the game, you will also find and earn several useful blueprints, including treasure compasses and four-star weapons.

The forge is one of the most free-to-play friendly parts of the game and is a resource that you should use in order to keep a constant stock of enchantment ore for leveling your weapon. The guide below goes over the craftable recipes that are currently in the game, as well as what they do.

Enchantment Ore

Enchantment Ore in Forge

You can make a special type of ore called enchantment ore. This ore comes in three different sizes and can be made from basic materials like iron and crystal ore. Their function is to help you easily level up weapons without the need of gathering lower-tier ones through exploration and pulls. The different versions are:

  • Enhancement Ore
  • Fine Enhancement Ore
  • Mystic Enhancement Ore

Simply take your ore to the Blacksmith and place your order. Rarer ore will create higher quality enchantment ore. It will be ready to collect a short time later.

Craftable Specialty Items

Specialty items have to be unlocked through various means in the game. Some will be related to the City Reputation System, while others will be attached to in-game quests. Here's what you can find and where.

Specialty Item

Item Use

Anemo Treasure Compass

The Anemo compass is a reward given for leveling your Mondstadt city reputation to six. The compass can be used to point you in the direction of treasure chests in Mondstadt. A glowing path will appear in the direction of the chest, and if there are none around, the compass will go into a short cooldown mode.

Geo Treasure Compass

The Geo compass works the same as the Anemo but is obtained through reaching level six on the Liyue City Reputation System.

Electro Treasure Compass

The Electro compass is a reward from the Inazuma City Reputation city used to locate Inazuma treasure chests.

NRE (Menu 30)

The NRE bag recipe is a reward for reaching level five of the City Reputation System in Mondstadt. The bag allows you to slot two different food items, one for revival and one for healing. The bag can be equipped for quick eating, which is a huge help with elemental boss fights, especially in co-op when the game doesn't pause when entering your menu.

Adepti Seeker's Stove

The Adepti Seeker's Stove is given out for reaching reputation level five in Liyue. The stove can be used to make a cooking spot almost anywhere on the map. Simply avoid getting into combat, and you can whip up some tasty dishes. The stove is a one-time use item, so it's best to craft multiples when possible.

Wind Catcher

The Wind Catcher recipe is the award for hitting level three of Mondstadt's reputation system. This bottle is able to catch the small wind sprites found around the map and can have up to five charges. These charges can be used to create a wind current to scale up mountains faster or reach collectibles.

Warming Bottle

The Warming Bottle is a recipe obtained from leveling up the Frostbearing Tree to level four. The bottle can help to fight off sheer cold by summoning a fake fire Seelie to warm your character.
