Hell forged set is base gear which is better then Top End Crafted base gear and is considered the next step in a characters gear progression.

Base gear referring to, gear with no enchantments or holy oils applied.

Hell Forged can only be purchased in Hell. All you need is access to the plane.

To purchase the gear you will need to pay:

- 150 Billion Gold

- 1000 Shards

- 10,000 Gold Dust

You will also need a level 400 crafted item of the type you want to buy. For example, if you want to buy a body piece, you will need a level 400 Crafted body piece to trade. For this reason it is advised players craft the body, apply the enchantments and holy oils as desired and then use that piece of gear to trade for the Hell Forged, as you will get back the Hell Forged with the same enchantments and holy oils applied.

Another way to get Hell Forged is to participate in Weekly Fights. If you are in hell and completed the relevant quest: The River Man in Hell, you will be given an invitation to the council, which allows you to enter a special location called: Hells Broken Anvil.

Here you can fight special monsters, once per week to gain loot either a mythic and three legendaries or just three legendaries.

Where Hell Forged gear comes into place is if you have a full set of Level 400 gear equipped and you enter and manage to kill a creature or multiple as you work down the list, you can then have an increased chance to gain a piece of Hell Forged gear as either Legendary or Mythical.

The chance works as such:

You roll a 1/100 and add 1% + number of level 400 items you have equipped (trinkets and ancestral items do not count).

If your total chance is higher then 80% you will get a piece of Hell Forged gear.
