Survivor.io Astral Forge Guide + All Effects (with 5-Star Effects) 2024

The new Astral Forge will give you the chance to add additional skills to your weapons by dissembling unneeded item pieces – so basically you pulled S-Grade items you don’t need/use/exceed so you can get upgrade items for the Astral Forge to level up their S-Grade weapon to unlock additional skills and make them stronger.

Important! Please refer to my weapon tier list and my gear tier list in Survivor.io to make sure you don’t dissemble parts that are useful later!

All Astral Forge Effects

If you want to know how the Astral Forge works, please scroll below – first, I have here all the Astral Forge effects for all gear and weapons in Survivor.io. The list is alphabetically, but you can also use the search field to find your item to see the Astral Forge Effect and my recommendation about the invest.

⭐️⭐️: 20% HP
⭐️⭐️⭐️: Soul State max duration +10s
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Entering a boss fight in Soul State resets its max duration.
Should you invest?:Depends, this is a gear item for the hard end-game content so only invest if you#re a spender and run the ietms
Recommended Effect (only IF you invest, not overall):⭐️⭐️⭐️
army belt
Army Belt
⭐️: 15% HP
⭐️⭐️: 20% HP
⭐️⭐️⭐️: Immune to projectile damage with Shockwave active
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Movement Speed isn't increaed when Dominator is active but damage +50%.
Should you invest?:Not neccessarily, the 3-Star effect is nice but the item is just not that strong overall that I see an invest be worth it

Army Boots
⭐️: 15% HP
⭐️⭐️: 20% HP
⭐️⭐️⭐️: Random Airdropped crates appear nearby when Inspired
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Inspired CD reduction increaed to 50%.

Recommended Effect (only IF you invest, not overall):⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
army gloves
Army Gloves
⭐️: 15% ATK
⭐️⭐️: 20% ATK
⭐️⭐️⭐️: +10% max HP when Elite/Boss is defeated
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: +3% damage when elite or boss is defeated.

Recommended Effect (only IF you invest, not overall):⭐️⭐️⭐️
army nameplate
Army Nameplate
15% ATK ➡ 20% ATK ➡ Gain 5s invincibility when Inspire is removed.
Should you invest?:Invinsibility is nice with solid trigger but overall the item so much weaker than other necklaces that I don't see an invest worth it in the long run.

baseball bat
Baseball Bat
⭐️: 15% ATK
⭐️⭐️: 20% ATK
⭐️⭐️⭐️: swings produce shockwaves
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Unaffected by max CD duration but knockback reduced.
Should you invest?:Ok I'll try to not phrase this wrong as the Baseball Bat has such a huge fanbase and they repeatetly came after me when I did not rank it too high in my tier list. Anyway, the Baseball bat is a solid weapon although not able to keep up with the Kunai and the S-Grade weapons), it is a weapon many players use, especially early on. But when looking at the Astral Forge, this is end-game content type of stuff and to get more than a stat boost you need the 3-Star which takes forever. So the 3-Star effect is nice, yes, but the point when it becomes available and where you need to be and what you need to do at this point in the game, the Baseball Bat will become more a complementary weapon you switch in in chapters where it is useful so I won't recommend it. Not because it's bad, just because I see you investing your Astral Forge cores better somewhere else.

How The Astral Forge Works

You will find the Astral Forge when you go your equipment tab and then select ‘Merge’ and there you will find a new button ‘Astral Forge’:

survivor.io where to find the Astral Forge

So you can basically salvage a item you don’t need to get upgrade parts – the parts are divided into the different sets, which right now are the Eternal Set, the Voidwalker Set and the Disorder Set that we only have the weapon available right now.

survivor.io astral forge upgrade parts

These items then can be used to upgrade your weapon of the same set.

salvage equipment

So if you dissemble Voidwalker items, you will get the items to upgrade the Void Power to unlock the Astral Forge Effect, which unlocks the ability that two Black Holes from the Void Power merge into a bigger Black Hole when they collide:

Please mind the Astral Forge will become available on July 13th, then I will update this guide here with all the skills and more details as this is the only leaked information that is available now – I highly recommend that you don’t dissemble anything or invest anything there unless I had the chance to finish this guide!

Conclusion

I hope this overview helps you to decide what to invest in and not waste any items in the Astral Forge.
