The Droknar's Forge run (sometimes referred to as the Droknar run, following closer to the town's full name, or the Forge run) is arguably the most well-known and popular run in the game, usually abbreviated to "Droks run." It is the only way to get to the Southern Shiverpeaks without first ascending. To get there, one must travel south from Beacon's Perch, travel through Lornar's Pass, Dreadnought's Drift and Snake Dance until the first stop, then continue through Talus Chute to reach Droknar's Forge. The run is long and very difficult due to deadly combinations and high concentrations of foes in the aforementioned areas. Due to its popularity the Droks run is also a very popular target for scammers. Lornar's Pass may be the hardest part of the run thanks to numerous Ice Imps, Siege Ice Golems and Frost Wurms populating the area. Various builds use various tactics to make it through.

The run usually takes about 10-25 minutes depending on the skill of the runner and what build the runner is using. Runs taking below ten minutes are certainly possible, and under nine minutes has been done, but after the nerfs of shadow step skills such runs are much less common.
