Dungeon Lootr Reforge Guide: God Rolls & Stones
Master reforging in Dungeon Lootr with this guide to affix seals, perfect reforge stones, and stat rolls that boost your damage fast.
If you've been grinding dungeons and wondering why your damage plateaus, the answer usually lives in the forge. This Dungeon Lootr reforge guide breaks down the exact systems — affix seals, perfect reforge stones, and stat priorities — that separate a mid-game build from a boss-melting one. Reforging isn't just a random reroll button; used correctly, it's the cheapest damage upgrade in the game.
Since Update 2 dropped the affix seal and perfect reforge stone systems, players have been rethinking how they roll gear. Instead of praying for one lucky stat, you now lock the stats you want and reroll the rest. This guide walks through how each system works, when to use which resource, and how to avoid the most common mistakes new players make.

What Is Reforging in Dungeon Lootr?
Reforging is the process of rerolling the bonus stats (affixes) on a piece of gear — your ring, body armor, or helmet. Every equipable item rolls with a set of affixes drawn from a shared pool: attack speed, crit rate, crit damage, armor shred, basic damage, skill crit rate, skill damage bonus, bonus damage chance, life steal, evasion, magic damage, range damage, physical damage, damage reduction, and more.
When you reforge, the game rerolls those affixes. The forge level (the +1 through +20 upgrade tier) and the item's quality percentage stay exactly the same — only the stat lines change. That distinction matters, because it means reforging never puts your upgrade investment at risk.
Community reports suggest the affix pool is weighted, meaning some stats appear less often than others. That's exactly why the affix seal system exists — to stop you from losing good stats while hunting for better ones.
Reforge vs. Upgrade: Know the Difference
New players frequently confuse these two forge actions. Here's the breakdown:
| Action | What It Changes | Resource Used | Reversible? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reforge | Bonus stat lines (affixes) | Reforge Stones + Affix Seals | Yes — reroll again anytime |
| Upgrade | Forge level (+1 to +20) | Ingots/Ore + success chance | No — success is RNG |
| Perfect Reforge Stone | Gear quality % (up to 100%) | Perfect Reforge Stone | No — quality can drop |
Reforging is the flexible, repeatable option. Upgrading is the permanent, high-stakes one. Prioritize reforging early, since it's far cheaper than chasing +20 on exotic gear.
Affix Seals: How to Lock God Rolls
Affix seals are the headline feature of the Update 2 reforge system. They come from the Payload — the giant winged boat activity — both as shop purchases and as direct dungeon drops.
Here's the mechanic: before you reforge, you select which existing stats you want to keep. Each locked stat costs one affix seal. Lock two stats, and every reforge consumes two seals plus one reforge stone. The unlocked stat is the only one that gets rerolled.
Step-by-Step: Locking Stats With Affix Seals
- Open the Crafting menu and click the item you want to perfect.
- Navigate to the Affix Locks section at the top.
- Select the stats you want to preserve (for example, evasion and magic damage).
- Confirm the lock — the game charges one seal per locked stat.
- Hit Reforge. Only the unlocked affix changes.
- Repeat until the new roll matches your build.
In practice, this turns a slot-machine grind into a targeted hunt. If you're chasing damage reduction and already have evasion plus magic damage, you lock those two and reroll the third line over and over until damage reduction appears.
Affix Seal Cost Table
| Locked Stats | Seals Per Reforge | Reforge Stones Per Attempt |
|---|---|---|
| 1 stat | 1 | 1 |
| 2 stats | 2 | 1 |
| 3 stats | 3 | 1 |
The math is simple: the more you lock, the more seals you burn per attempt — but the higher your odds of landing the exact roll you need. Most players lock two stats and reroll the third, which balances cost against control.
Perfect Reforge Stones: The Quality Reroll
Perfect reforge stones are rarer than affix seals and work completely differently. You get them from Payload chests, and they reroll your gear's quality percentage rather than its stats.
Quality determines the base stats an item rolls with. A 60% quality ring simply has lower base numbers than an 80% one. Here's what a perfect reforge stone can do:
| Outcome | Chance | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Quality decreases | ~45% | e.g., 60% drops to 50% |
| Quality increases | ~54% | e.g., 60% climbs to 80% |
| Perfect 100% quality | ~1% | Maximum base stats |
Critically, the stone does not touch your affixes or forge level. If your ring has movement speed and sits at +10, it keeps both. All that changes is the quality line.
Because of the 45% downside risk, most experienced players hoard these stones for high-value pieces — typically a ring with great affixes but poor quality. Using one on a throwaway item is a waste of a genuinely rare resource.
Stat Priorities: What to Reforge For
Reforging blind is how you waste seals. Before you touch the forge, you need to know what your class actually scales with.
Match Stats to Your Damage Type
Your helmet and body armor roll with a specific damage type affix. The rule is straightforward:
- Range classes (like Sinister Trigger) → roll for range damage
- Melee/physical classes (long sword users) → roll for physical damage
- Magic classes → roll for magic damage
Getting the wrong damage type on your armor is pure dead weight. Reforge it out.
The Crit Rate Rule
This is the single most important reforge principle in the game: never stack crit damage without crit rate first. Crit damage only pays off when you actually crit. Community testing shows players reaching roughly 96K crit hits with crit damage stacked — but only because their crit rate supported it.
Priority order for a basic-attack build:
- Crit rate — get this to a functional level first
- Basic damage — boosts your M1 attack damage
- Bonus damage chance — contributes heavily to overall output
- Crit damage — only after the above are covered
Player experience suggests that swapping a life-steal ring for a crit-damage ring can push crit numbers from around 55K to 96K — a massive jump, but only if crit rate is already in place.
Class Stat Scaling
Your stat points matter as much as your gear. Check Stat Info in-game — the recommended stat for your class glows green. For Sinister Trigger, that's dexterity. Dumping every point into the right stat can swing raw damage dramatically; one player reported jumping from roughly 3.7K to 12.6K damage simply by reallocating stat points correctly.
Celestial vs. Exotic Gear: What to Reforge
This is where a lot of players go wrong. Exotic gear is the highest rarity and looks incredible on paper — but it's a trap for anyone without a massive material stockpile.
The Exotic Grind, By the Numbers
To upgrade exotic gear, you need exotic ingots. The chain looks like this:
- Defeat the Scarlet Knight in Underworld Nightmare+ or Nightmare of the Endless
- The knight has roughly a 90% spawn chance — not guaranteed
- Each kill guarantees one exotic ore
- Five exotic ore = one exotic ingot
- Upgrading has a success chance — one player's ring sat at just 3% success
Do the math: hitting a meaningful forge level can take hundreds of exotic ore, meaning hundreds of knight kills. Community reports describe spending around 100 exotic ingots — the equivalent of 500 ore — for a single upgrade tier.
Why Celestial Gear Often Wins
Celestial materials are farmable through regular dungeons, so you can actually upgrade celestial gear. A well-upgraded celestial ring regularly outperforms a barely-upgraded exotic one.
| Gear Type | Material Source | Upgrade Feasibility | Recommended For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Celestial | Dungeon farming | High — abundant ingots | Early/mid game, most players |
| Exotic | Scarlet Knight (5 ore per ingot) | Very low — RNG success | Late game, heavy grinders |
One comparison from player testing: an exotic ring at +17 showed around 1.7K base damage, while a celestial ring at +18 showed roughly 2.2K. The exotic wasn't worth it because it couldn't be upgraded further. Don't force exotic gear — build celestial first.
Practical Reforge Workflow
Here's a clean order of operations for getting the most out of every seal and stone.
Step 1: Secure a Celestial Ring
Farm dungeons until you have a celestial ring with a workable affix set. Don't chase perfection on exotic gear you can't upgrade.
Step 2: Upgrade to a Comfortable Forge Level
Push your ring toward +18 or higher if materials allow. Remember the max forge level is 20.
Step 3: Lock Your Two Best Stats
Use affix seals to lock the stats your class needs most — for example, crit rate and basic damage on a basic-attack build.
Step 4: Reroll the Third Stat
Reforge repeatedly until the unlocked line becomes the stat you're hunting, like bonus damage chance or crit damage.
Step 5: Save Perfect Reforge Stones
Hold perfect reforge stones until you have a high-affix, low-quality item worth the 45% risk.
Step 6: Reforge Armor Damage Types
Make sure your helmet and body carry the correct damage type — range, physical, or magic — matching your class.

Common Reforge Mistakes to Avoid
- Reforging before checking class stats. Know your scaling stat first.
- Stacking crit damage with no crit rate. Dead stat until you can crit.
- Locking three stats every time. Seal costs add up fast; two locks is the sweet spot.
- Using perfect reforge stones on low-value gear. The 45% downside is real.
- Ignoring titles and class mastery. Titles like Double Hunter grant bonus stats (for example, +19 dexterity) and require class mastery level 50 plus NPC payments.
- Chasing exotic before celestial. The material grind will stall your progress for weeks.
