The Stolen Heart is one of the rarest and most talked-about ores in The Forge right now. Introduced as part of the Raven Cave update, this Divine rarity ore is locked behind late-game progression and an unforgiving drop rate, making it a true test of patience for dedicated players.
If you are aiming to complete the Raven questline, unlock Berserker armour, or optimise your gear with powerful traits, here is everything you need to know about how to get the Stolen Heart and how to improve your chances.
What Is The Stolen Heart In The Forge
The Stolen Heart is a Divine rarity ore that only appears in the Frostspire Expanse region. Because of this, it is only accessible to players who have invested significant time into levelling and progression.

At a glance, the Stolen Heart comes with impressive value:
Rarity: Divine
Multiplier: 15.4x
Sell Price: $288.75
However, its true worth lies in its crafting potential and its role in one of the most important late-game quests.
Requirements To Get The Stolen Heart
Before you can even attempt to mine the Stolen Heart, several strict requirements must be met:
Reach level 70
Unlock the Frostspire Expanse
Complete Raven Quest 1 and Raven Quest 2
Obtain the Red Cave Key to unlock Raven Cave

The Stolen Heart is also a mandatory item for completing Raven Quest 3, meaning most players will encounter this grind naturally while progressing through the Raven storyline.
Where To Find The Stolen Heart
The Stolen Heart can only be obtained by mining a special rock known as the Heart of the Island. These rocks spawn exclusively inside Raven Cave, the newest cave added to The Forge.
Visually, they are easy to identify. Look for black crystal-like rocks with a glowing red orb floating inside. These are smaller versions of the massive crystal formations found deeper in the cave and are the only source of Stolen Heart ore.
How To Mine The Stolen Heart
Mining the Heart of the Island is not straightforward. Each rock has an enormous 32,500 HP, meaning weak pickaxes will barely make a dent.
To mine these rocks efficiently, you will need a pickaxe with at least 650 base power. In practice, this means working towards the Prismatic Pickaxe, which costs a hefty $2,000,000.
Even with the right equipment, the odds are brutal. Each Heart of the Island rock has just a 1 in 54,321 chance to drop a Stolen Heart, and every rock only yields one ore.
A common strategy is to partially mine a rock until the ore inside becomes visible. If it does not contain the Stolen Heart, stop mining and allow it to regenerate, then move on to another node.
Ways To Increase Your Stolen Heart Drop Chance
While the base drop rate is extremely low, there are several ways to stack luck bonuses and slightly improve your odds:
- Use Luck Potions, which Goblin players can buy at a discount
- Equip the Dedicated Player skill from the Achievements menu for an 8 to 40 percent luck boost depending on playtime
- Attach Miner Shard runes with the Luck trait to your pickaxe
- Choose a luck-boosting race, with Angel being the strongest option
- Play during developer events that increase global luck
- Use Luck Totems for a temporary 25 percent luck boost, available from codes, daily rewards, or Robux purchases
- Stacking multiple luck sources does not guarantee success, but it can significantly reduce the time needed to finally see a Stolen Heart drop.
Tricks To Find Heart Of The Island Rocks Faster
Because Heart of the Island rocks are rare spawns, some players use alternative methods to speed up the process.
One method is server hopping. By switching between public servers and quickly checking Raven Cave, you can sometimes find fresh spawns without mining large amounts of Red Crystals. This method may become less reliable as more players unlock the cave.
For players with access to private servers, resetting the server is another option. Each reset causes the cave to respawn its rocks, allowing you to repeatedly check for Heart of the Island spawns. While effective, this approach requires real money and patience.
What Is The Stolen Heart Used For
The Stolen Heart has two major uses in The Forge.
The first is completing Raven Quest 3. After finishing the earlier Raven quests, you will be tasked with defeating:
- 25 Mini Demonic Spiders
- 10 Demonic Spiders
- 1 Demonic Queen Spider
Alongside these kills, you must deliver one Stolen Heart ore. Completing this quest rewards you with the Berserker armour blueprint, one of the strongest armour sets available for late-game content.
The second use is crafting. When used in weapon forging recipes, the Stolen Heart grants a lifesteal trait, allowing weapons to recover health when dealing damage. This makes it highly desirable for players focused on survivability and sustained combat.
Is The Stolen Heart Worth The Grind
For casual players, the Stolen Heart grind can feel overwhelming. But for those pushing into late-game content, the rewards fully justify the effort. Between the Berserker armour blueprint and the powerful lifesteal trait, the Stolen Heart remains one of the most valuable ores currently available in The Forge.
