Ready to wield the most powerful pickaxe in The Forge? The Demonic Pickaxe is every miner’s dream, but it’s locked behind a challenge that’s as fiery as the Volcanic Depths themselves. And here’s the kicker: the only way in—for now—is by exploiting glitches. But is it worth the effort? Let’s dig into the details.
In The Forge, pickaxes are your bread and butter for mining ores, but the Demonic Pickaxe stands head and shoulders above the rest. It’s a top-tier tool that players covet, yet it’s tucked away in a room deep within a treacherous cave. Getting to it isn’t just about navigating the map—it’s about outsmarting the game itself. This guide will walk you through how to claim this legendary pickaxe and whether its steep price tag is justified.
Where to Find the Demonic Pickaxe
The Demonic Pickaxe rests on a throne inside the aptly named Demonic Pickaxe Room, located in the Volcanic Depths of the Forgotten Kingdom. But don’t pack your bags just yet—reaching this room is no walk in the park. You’ll need to unlock the Forgotten Kingdom first, which requires the Portal Tool. Once there, interact with the cannon near the spawn point to launch yourself toward the Ruined Caves.
Pro Tip: Before venturing into the caves, gear up with the best weapon and armor recipes. The enemies here are no joke, and you’ll want every advantage you can get.
Inside the Ruined Caves, take a right turn into the Ashen Passage. At the end, you’ll spot a Magma Pickaxe and two Basalt Veins. Use a pickaxe with at least 78 damage to break through or dash through the openings. From there, head to the Volcanic Depths, turn right, and keep moving until you encounter an ominous black door. Along the way, you’ll face Elite Rogue Skeletons and Blazing Slimes—either defeat them for resources or sneak past them. Whatever you do, avoid the flowing lava unless you enjoy being toasted.
How to Enter the Demonic Pickaxe Room
Here’s where it gets controversial: the only way to access the Demonic Pickaxe Room right now is by exploiting glitches. Yes, you read that right. There are no quests or keys—just a bit of gaming ingenuity. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with two glitch methods that work (for now).
1. Demon Race Glitch
This glitch requires you to have the Demon race equipped. If you don’t have it, use The Forge codes to reroll your race. Once you’re a Demon, spam jump and Demon Dash toward the door. Forward or backward dashes both work—just keep spamming until you phase through. If it doesn’t work on the first try, restart your game and try again.
2. Portal Dash Glitch
This method is race-agnostic, meaning anyone can try it. Equip your portal and place it in front of the Demonic Pickaxe Room gate. Run toward the gate and start dashing as soon as you place the portal. The portal’s momentum should push you through the door. It’s tricky, but practice makes perfect.
Important Note: These glitches aren’t foolproof, and there’s no guarantee they’ll work every time. Plus, they could be patched in the next update, so act fast!
Once inside, you’ll find the Demonic Pickaxe perched on a black throne, glowing with an otherworldly red hue.
Demonic Pickaxe Stats: Is It Worth the Hype?
The Demonic Pickaxe comes with a jaw-dropping price tag of $500,000, making it the most expensive pickaxe in the game. But does it live up to the cost? Let’s break down its stats:
- Mine Power: 175 (the highest in the game)
- Mine Speed: -15% (a trade-off, but manageable)
- Luck Boost: +47.5%
- Rune Slot: 3
While its mining speed is slower, you can compensate with potions, totems, and Miner Shard runes. Paired with mining speed-boosting races, this pickaxe becomes an unstoppable force.
Should You Buy It?
The Demonic Pickaxe is undeniably one of the best tools in The Forge, but its price is a barrier for many players. If you’re short on cash, focus on completing quests, selling essences, weapons, and armor to earn money quickly. Alternatively, check out our Pickaxe Progression Guide for more affordable options.
