On Classic Reimagined the Blacksmith becomes a frontline Axe fighter. Axe Throw turns your normal attacks into ranged 2-hit axe throws, two dash skills pull you into the fight, Anvil Cyclone and Tempered Stomp clear packs around you, Furnace Blast and Quenched Impact add Fire and Water bursts, and War Cart Ram turns your cart into a weapon. Chain different attacks to build the class signature, Forge Momentum, and finish with a Masterwork hit.
ℹ️Classic 99/50 server. All custom skills are learned from the normal skill tree with skill points after learning Hammer Fall Lv 1. Damage values below are for Base Level 99 (current patch, November 2026).
⚠️The custom skills and Forge Momentum work for the normal Blacksmith only. They are not passed on to Whitesmith, Baby Blacksmith or other classes.

| Forge Momentum | — | Class signature (automatic passive) | Normal Blacksmith |
Class Signature: Forge Momentum
⭐Class signature: a built-in bonus every player of this job has. It needs no skill points and works automatically: follow the pattern below to trigger its bonus.
| Who | Normal Blacksmith (automatic) |
| Build | 3 landed custom attacks, or Axe Throw normal attacks (Forge Charges last 12 s) |
| Ready | Masterwork for 8 s (buff icon) |
| Bonus | Next landed attack: +15% damage (+7% vs players / PvP / GvG); War Cart Ram can spend it |
| Recovery | 10 s before new charges |
Forge Momentum is automatic; you don't learn or cast it. It rewards you for keeping up the pressure with your custom attacks.
| Step | What happens |
|---|
| 1. Forge Charge | Each landed hit from a custom attack gives 1 Forge Charge. Buff icons show 1/3 and 2/3. Charges last 12 s. |
| 2. Masterwork Ready | The 3rd charge turns into MASTERWORK READY for 8 s. |
| 3. Masterwork hit | Your next landed attack deals +15% damage to monsters, or +7% against players (and on PvP, GvG and WoE maps, and vs player summons). |
- Builds charges: Foundry Charge, Hammerdrive, Anvil Cyclone, Tempered Stomp, Furnace Blast, Quenched Impact, Forge Meltdown, and every normal attack while the Axe Throw stance is active.
- War Cart Ram can use a ready Masterwork, but never builds charges. That makes it the ideal finisher.
- One cast counts once: an area skill that hits many enemies gives only 1 charge, and when it spends Masterwork, every target of that same cast gets the bonus.
- The cast that creates Masterwork cannot also spend it; the bonus goes to your next attack.
- After a Masterwork is created, you can't build new charges for 10 s.
- Charges and Masterwork are lost when you change maps or log out.
Axe Throw
Enter a 30-second stance in which your normal attacks become ranged 2-hit axe throws. You can move while attacking.
| Max Level | 10 |
| Type | Stance (self), Physical ranged normal attacks |
| Duration | 30 s |
| Cast / Delay / Cooldown | Instant / none / none |

| Requirement | Hammer Fall Lv 1 |
| Level | Per throw | ASPD |
|---|
| 1 | 240% ATK x2 = 480% | +1.5% |
| 2 | 310% ATK x2 = 620% | +3% |
| 3 | 380% ATK x2 = 760% | +4.5% |
| 4 | 450% ATK x2 = 900% | +6% |

Changes to Original Skills
| Skill | Change |
|---|
| Hammer Fall | Also knocks back all nearby monsters and players by 4 cells. Lv 1 unlocks the custom skill tree. |
| Axe Throw | Now a learnable Blacksmith skill (Lv 1-10, needs Hammer Fall Lv 1) and reworked into the throwing stance above. |
| Full Adrenaline Rush | Learnable by the Blacksmith after Adrenaline Rush Lv 5: ASPD +30% with all weapons, nearby party members +20% (not ranged weapons). |
Tips
- Forge Momentum combo: Foundry Charge → Hammerdrive → Anvil Cyclone (Masterwork ready) → War Cart Ram to spend it.
- Two-handed Axe gets 3 hits from Tempered Stomp; use Stomp before Anvil Cyclone for about +300%, up to the 1100% cap. VIT also raises Anvil Cyclone.
- Foundry Charge's Quake makes enemies take more weapon damage for 6 s, so follow up right away.
- Pick the element: Furnace Blast (Fire) and Quenched Impact (Water) hit weaknesses; Quenched Impact also locks enemies with Freeze / Freezing.
- Keep the cart full for War Cart Ram, and keep SP high before Forge Meltdown.
