How to Get the Yeti Heart in The Forge

The Red Cave update has introduced some of the most sought-after endgame items in The Forge, and the Yeti Heart sits right at the center of that progression. Whether you are grinding the Raven Cult questline or aiming to craft a high-speed DPS build, securing a Yeti Heart in The Forge is a mandatory milestone.

Dropping as a rare Mythic item, this heart is more than just a quest requirement—it is a powerful forging component with a 7.7x multiplier. In this guide, we’ll show you exactly how to navigate the Frostspire Expanse and take down the beast to claim your prize.

Yeti Heart Location: Finding the Peak Cave

To obtain the Yeti Heart in The Forge, you must travel to the highest reaches of the Frostspire Expanse. Unlike standard ores, the Yeti is a formidable sub-boss that requires specific navigation to reach.

1. Use the Cannon: Locate the Ice Man NPC and use the cannon behind him to launch yourself directly toward the Peak Cave.
2. Navigate the Passage: Once inside the cave, take an immediate left and follow the tunnel.
3. Clear the Obstacles: You will eventually encounter two Large Ice Crystals blocking the path. Break through them to enter the Yeti’s spawning grounds.
4. Force the Spawn: If the Yeti isn't there, clear out other nearby enemies. This is also a perfect time to multitask if you are currently working on the Bjorn quest.

The Yeti is notoriously tanky. We recommend utilizing optimized weapon recipes and armor recipes to ensure you aren't overwhelmed by its heavy physical attacks.

Yeti Heart Uses: Quests and Forging Multipliers

The Yeti Heart in The Forge serves two primary purposes: progressing through the story and significantly boosting your gear's stats.

1. The Raven Cult Questline

You must deliver the Yeti Heart to the Mjelatkhan NPC inside the Raven Cave. This is the second step in the cult questline, following the submission of the Prismatic Heart. Completing this phase is essential for eventually unlocking the Dragon Head Pickaxe.

2. High-Speed Forging Traits

Beyond the quest, the Yeti Heart is a favorite for DPS-focused players. Its 7.7x multiplier provides a massive stat jump, while its passive traits focus on speed and precision:

1. +30% Crit Chance
2. +10% Crit DMG
3. +10% Attack Speed: One of the few traits in the game that directly buffs your swing rate.
