Buy Path of Gear: Blacksmith’s Legend PC key

Path of Gear: Blacksmith’s Legend is a strategy game in which you play as a blacksmith-strategist, planning combat by placing actions on the Ouruburos timeline. You explore a world of hexagonal tiles, gather materials from powerful enemies and events, and forge weapons whose traits and affixes shape your build. Your talents persist across adventures and deaths, helping you develop a progression path over time.

Plan each battle

Enemy actions appear on the timeline in one-second intervals, showing what will happen over the next 20 seconds of combat. You place your own actions to strike before deadly enemy skills, chain attacks to trigger interactions between affixes, and decide where weapons go on the timeline, as well as which ones to repair and prepare. Weapon weight and type affect swing time, so precise timing can give you the advantage or set off unexpected chain reactions.

Forge your weapons

Powerful enemies yield unique crafting materials, each with its own qualities and traits. Choose a weapon mold and place materials in its slots to combine their affixes and weapon traits. Experiment with different mold-and-material combinations to create the weapon at the core of your build; its qualities depend on your choices and design.

Develop your talents

Over 400 talents offer different progression paths for your blacksmithing and combat builds. Talent progress does not reset when a run ends, and each adventure and death contributes to your growth. Some talents make you a glass cannon at full health and a sturdy wall at low health; others specialize in weapon types, letting weapon molds develop alongside you. High-risk talents can drain some of your health with every attack in exchange for damage that rises the longer you fight. Your strength depends on how you allocate talent points and shape your build, not only on stats and random outcomes.

Prepare a meal

Before each adventure, you can stop at a restaurant for a meal. The head chef prepares a special menu, while a picky cat critic rates your dishes and affects the buffs you take on your next outing. Ingredients build up over multiple adventures: defeating monsters and clearing events provide new ones. Adjust their proportions according to their properties to target the right range for a highly rated dish. Experimenting with unusual or risky ingredients can bring powerful boons or harmful side effects, so meals can offer either a cautious boost or forbidden power with consequences.

Explore the world

Travel across a world of hexagonal tiles and plan your route through safe paths, shortcuts and hidden treasure. Venturing beyond your capabilities risks Calamity, stronger enemies and greater pressure in battle. Each map also contains over 80 random events that call for quick thinking and guile; your choices can earn equipment or lead to a brutal fight.
