In this ultimate Forge Portal Tool guide, I’ll walk you through everything you need to know about obtaining and mastering the Portal Tool – your ticket to island-hopping freedom and accessing the coveted Forgotten Kingdom.
The Portal Tool isn’t just another item in your inventory; it’s the game-changer that transforms The Forge from a linear tutorial cave into an expansive multi-island adventure. Whether you’re a complete beginner or someone who’s been stuck in Stonewake’s Cross for too long, this guide will give you the exact steps, strategies, and insider tips to unlock fast travel and dominate the progression system.
By the end of this comprehensive guide, you’ll know exactly how to get the Portal Tool, reach level 10 efficiently, unlock the Forgotten Kingdom, and even dive into advanced content like the Goblin Cave and Tomo’s Cat quests. Let’s forge ahead!
The Portal Tool is your personal teleportation device in The Forge Roblox game. It’s a reusable item that allows you to create magical portals and travel between different islands instantly. Instead of running through long caves or tedious paths, you can simply place your portal, select your destination, and teleport directly where you want to go.
Why the Portal Tool Matters?
I can’t stress enough how crucial the Portal Tool is for your progression in The Forge. Here’s why it’s so important:
Time-Saving: No more backtracking through Stonewake’s Cross every time you need to access different areas
Access to Better Resources: The Forgotten Kingdom contains superior ores like Basalt, Volcanic Rock, and rare gemstones
Advanced Content: Unlock questlines like the Goblin Cave and Tomo’s Cat adventures
Efficient Grinding: Quickly travel between farming spots and shops for optimal resource management
Progression Gateway: Many late-game pickaxes and items are only available in the Forgotten Kingdom
Complete Step-by-Step: How to Get the Portal Tool?
Getting the Portal Tool isn’t as simple as just buying it or finding it as a drop. It requires completing specific questlines and reaching certain milestones. Let me break down the exact process for you.
Step 1: Complete the Initial Tutorial
When you first spawn in The Forge, you’ll automatically encounter Sensei Moro near the spawn area. This is part of the game’s tutorial, and you can’t miss it.
What to do:
Press E to talk to Sensei Moro
Complete all of his initial quests
These quests will teach you the basics of mining, forging, and selling items
Don’t skip any steps – each one is essential for progression
Pro Tip: Pay attention to the tutorial quests carefully. They’re not just for show – they’re setting up your understanding of the game’s core mechanics, which you’ll need for the more advanced content later.
Step 2: Progress Through Early Game Content
Before you can even think about portals, you need to establish yourself in Stonewake’s Cross. Here’s what you need to focus on:
Essential Early Game Tasks:
Mine Starter Ores: Use your free Stone Pickaxe to mine basic ores
Forge Your First Gear: Create weapons and armor at the main forge
Upgrade Your Pickaxe: Buy at least one upgraded pickaxe from Miner Fred
Complete Available Quests: Follow any quests that appear in your journal
Level Up Your Character: Gain experience through mining, forging, and questing
Leveling Strategy: The fastest way to level up early is to:
Mine ores constantly (even basic ones give XP)
Forge items regularly (forging gives good XP)
Complete every quest you can find
Claim Index Rewards: Press T to open your Index and claim completed entries – this gives massive XP chunks!
Step 3: Complete the Bard’s Guitar Questline
This is where many players get confused. The Portal Tool isn’t just about Sensei Moro’s quests – you need to complete the Bard’s Guitar questline too.
How to Start the Bard’s Guitar Quest:
Look for the NPC who mentions a “lost guitar” in Stonewake’s Cross
This is usually a bard or musician character near the main area
Press E to interact and accept the quest
Completing the Quest:
Follow the quest markers to find the lost guitar
The guitar is typically hidden somewhere in Stonewake’s Cross
Return the guitar to the bard to complete the quest
You’ll receive a special key item related to portals as your reward
Important Note: Many guides miss this crucial step! You won’t be able to get the actual Portal Tool from the Wizard until you’ve completed this questline and received the portal key item.
Step 4: Reach Level 10
Level 10 is the hard requirement for unlocking the Forgotten Kingdom and using portals effectively. Here’s how to get there quickly:
Fast Leveling Methods:
Grind Ores: Mine everything you can, even if you don’t need the materials
Mass Forge: Create items in bulk, even basic ones, for forging XP
Index Completion: Press T frequently and claim every completed entry
Quest Completion: Don’t ignore any quests – they give substantial XP
Use Codes: Check for active The Forge codes (more on this later)
Level 10 Milestone: Once you hit level 10, you’ve officially unlocked the ability to use the Portal Tool to access the Forgotten Kingdom. This is a game-changing moment!
Step 5: Visit the Wizard
Now that you’ve completed the Bard’s Guitar questline and reached level 10, it’s time to get your actual Portal Tool.
Finding the Wizard:
The Wizard is located at the far end of Stonewake’s Cross
Take the left path before entering the main cave
Look for a house or tower structure
The Wizard is the same NPC who helps with race rolls
Getting Your Portal Tool:
Make sure you’re level 10
Ensure you’ve completed the Bard’s Guitar quest
Press E to talk to the Wizard
He’ll recognize your progress and give you the Portal Tool
Congratulations! You now have the Portal Tool in your inventory. You’re ready to start teleporting between islands!
How to Use the Portal Tool?
Having the Portal Tool is one thing, but using it effectively is another. Let me walk you through exactly how to use your new teleportation device.
Basic Portal Usage
Step-by-Step Portal Placement:
Select the Portal Tool: Find it in your hotbar and select it
Find Valid Terrain: Look for a flat, stable surface
Place the Portal: Press the designated button to place it
Check Placement Indicator:
Green Light: Good placement, portal will work
Red Light: Invalid placement, move to a different spot

Portal Placement Tips
Through my experience, I’ve learned some important tips about portal placement:
Best Placement Locations:
Flat Ground: Always look for the flattest surface possible
Away from Obstacles: Keep clear of walls, rocks, and other objects
Safe Areas: Place it in safe zones where you won’t be attacked
Convenient Spots: Near important NPCs or resource areas
Common Placement Issues:
Red Indicator: Means the ground isn’t suitable – try moving to a different spot
Portal Won’t Place: You might be too close to an object or on uneven terrain
Portal Disappears: Sometimes happens if you place it in invalid areas – just try again
Pro Tip: You can pick up and move your portal after placing it! Simply select the Portal Tool again and place it in a new location. This is great for when you need to move your farming operations.

FAQ: Your Portal Tool Questions Answered
Based on my research and community feedback, here are the most common questions players have about the Portal Tool.
How long does it take to get the Portal Tool?
From my experience, getting the Portal Tool typically takes 2-4 hours of focused gameplay, depending on your familiarity with RPG mechanics. The main time investments are reaching level 10 and completing the required questlines.
Can I get the Portal Tool without completing the Bard’s Guitar quest?
No, the Bard’s Guitar questline is mandatory. Many players make this mistake and wonder why the Wizard won’t give them the Portal Tool. You must complete this quest to receive the portal key item.
What’s the minimum level to use the Portal Tool?
Technically, you can get the Portal Tool itself once you complete the quests, but you need to be level 10 to actually use it to access the Forgotten Kingdom. Level 10 is the hard requirement for island teleportation.
Can I move my portal after placing it?
Yes! Simply select the Portal Tool from your hotbar again and place it in a new location. This is incredibly useful for adapting your strategy as your needs change.
Why is my portal placement red instead of green?
A red placement indicator means the terrain isn’t suitable for portal placement. Move to a flatter, more stable area until the indicator turns green. Avoid placing portals near walls, rocks, or other objects.
Do I need to pay Robux for the Portal Tool?
No, the Portal Tool is completely free and obtained through gameplay progression. It’s not a paid item or microtransaction – it’s a core part of the game’s progression system.
Can other players use my portal?
Currently, portals are player-specific. Other players cannot use your placed portal, but they can place and use their own Portal Tool in the same location.
What happens if I lose my Portal Tool?
The Portal Tool should remain in your inventory permanently once obtained. If you somehow lose it, try relogging or contacting the game developers through their official Discord server.
Are there other islands besides the Forgotten Kingdom?
Yes! The Forgotten Kingdom is just the first major island you unlock. As you progress further in the game, additional islands and areas become accessible through your Portal Tool.
How often should I move my portal?
Move your portal as often as your needs change! If you’re focusing on different resources or activities, reposition your portal to be more convenient. There’s no penalty for moving it frequently.
