As of April 28, 2026, you have the option to forge (aka upgrade) Gauntlet Weapons by converting them with credits OR virtual munzees! Let Rob and our friend Seemyshell walk you through these new game pieces, and then read on to find out more!
What are Forged Gauntlet Weapons?
As mentioned above, they are upgraded versions of Gauntlet Weapons.
You can use the following game pieces to forge your Gauntlet Weapons:
- Fire Mystery credits
- Ice Mystery credits
- Air Mystery munzees (must be unused)
- Void Mystery munzees (must be unused)
Here is an example of what each looks like for the Mace:
Flame Forged Mace |
Frost Forged Mace |
Wind Forged Mace |
Shadow Forged Mace |
Capping a Flame Forged Mace will set up to 3 Greenies on Fire within one mile that will burn for two hours or until capped, whichever comes first. |
Capping a Frost Forged Mace will cause up to 3 greenies within 2,500 feet to “freeze” for two hours or until capped, whichever comes first. |
Capping a Wind Forged Mace will scatter up to 3 temporary virtual Feather Munzees in a mile radius for two hours or until capped, whichever comes first. |
Capping a Shadow Forged Mace will scatter up to 3 Black Hole Munzees onto nearby Virtual Colors within a 1500 ft radius for 1 hour. |

As you can see from the table above, Forged Gauntlet Weapons take on the properties of the new credit or virtual munzee they were forged with! This means:
- Gauntlet Weapons forged with Elemental Mysteries will scatter Elemental Scatters.
- The point structures of Forged Gauntlet Weapons combine the point structures of their component types. For example:
- Mace Deploy Points + Fire Mystery Deploy Points = Flame Forged Mace Deploy Points
- 25 + 50 = 75
- Mace Capture Points + Fire Mystery Capture Points = Flame Forged Mace Capture Points
- Min Capture Points: 10 + 10 = 20
- Max Capture Points: 20 + 50 = 70
- Mace CapOn Points + Fire Mystery CapOn Points = Flame Forged Mace CapOn Points
- Min CapOn Points: 10 + 10 = 20
- Max CapOn Points: 20 + 50 = 70
- Mace Deploy Points + Fire Mystery Deploy Points = Flame Forged Mace Deploy Points
If I deploy or capture a Forged Gauntlet Weapon, which categories will it count for in Gauntlet Games, ZeeOps, etc.?
As Forged Gauntlet Weapons are still Gauntlet Weapons, they will only count towards Gauntlet Weapon requirements.
How to forge Gauntlet Weapons
The process is the same as in How to Convert a Munzee Using Credits.
PLEASE NOTE: if you are converting a Gauntlet Weapon that has already been deployed, the points will update, but the deploy date will not. So, if you would like to make sure the points count for the current date, go through the Swap process first, as that will count as a new deploy.
