To craft Obsidiron Boots in 99 Nights in the Forest, you need 10 Meteor Shards and 1 Obsidiron Ingot, which can only be obtained after the Meteor Shower event triggers on Day 5 or later. The boots must be crafted at the special Meteor Anvil (also called Volcanic Anvil) that appears on the map as a red anvil icon after the event starts.
| Requirement | Details | Availability |
|---|---|---|
| Event Trigger | Meteor Shower Event | Day 5+ (Random) |
| Crafting Station | Meteor/Lava Anvil | Red anvil icon on map |
| Materials Needed | 10x Meteor Shards, 1x Obsidiron Ingot | Mine from meteor craters |
| Tools Required | Pickaxe/Axe for mining | Any tier works |

The Obsidiron Boots represent the pinnacle of protective footwear in 99 Nights in the Forest, offering unparalleled defense and unique abilities that can dramatically improve your survival chances in the later nights. Unlike standard boots that provide basic protection, these meteorite-forged items grant:
These boots have become essential equipment for players attempting to survive beyond Night 50, where hostile entities become increasingly aggressive and standard gear becomes insufficient. The investment in crafting them pays off through dramatically improved survivability during cultist raids and encounters with The Deer.
Meteor Showers can appear any time from Day 5 onward. The event isn't guaranteed to happen immediately after Day 5—it's completely random, which adds an element of anticipation to your survival journey. When the event begins, you'll see a global message saying "The sky is on fire" appear on your screen.
The visual spectacle is unmistakable: the sky shifts to a deep red color, and glowing trails mark incoming meteor impacts across the horizon. This atmospheric change isn't just for show—it signals the beginning of a limited-time opportunity to gather some of the rarest materials in the game.
Finding meteor craters requires active observation and quick navigation:
Pro Tip: If you miss the initial impact, don't panic. The craters remain on the ground until mined, so you can still find them even if you missed the initial event. Search the areas where you saw trails ending, typically in open forest clearings away from major structures.
Once the Meteor Shower event is active, open your map and look for a distinct red anvil icon. This marks the location of the Meteor Anvil, your key to crafting Obsidiron equipment. The anvil isn't just sitting there waiting for you—it requires preparation and combat skills to access.
The Meteor Anvil typically spawns in one of several predetermined locations:
The anvil is often located within a structure that is guarded by Meteor Crabs. These aren't your standard forest creatures—Meteor Crabs are aggressive, heavily armored enemies that spawn specifically to protect the valuable crafting station. Here's how to handle them:
Combat Strategy for Meteor Crabs:
The anvil must be assembled by dragging its parts into the middle-highlighted area. The assembly process involves:
Assembly Tips:
Meteor Shards are obtained by mining the large, crystalline meteorites at the center of impact craters. These glowing red crystals are the most common drop from meteors, but you'll still need to mine multiple meteorites to gather enough.
Efficient Mining Strategy:
Mining Safety Protocol:
The Obsidiron Ingot is the most challenging component and requires a unique 3-step forging process. This isn't your standard crafting—it's a precise operation that can fail if not executed correctly.
When mining meteorites, there's a chance to obtain Raw Obsidiron Ore along with Meteor Shards. The drop rate is approximately 15-20%, so you may need to mine several meteorites.
Ore Characteristics:
Take the Raw Obsidiron Ore and throw it into a pool of lava. You can find lava inside the Meteor Crater area or at volcanic pools.
Critical Heating Steps:
Warning: The Scalding Obsidiron Ingot has a timer! You must complete the next step within 60 seconds or it becomes useless slag.
While the ingot is still scalding hot, you must cool it by throwing it into a body of water. Any water source works:
Valid Cooling Locations:
This final step completes the process, turning it into a stable Obsidiron Ingot ready for crafting.
Common Mistakes to Avoid:
While meteor mining is the primary source, experienced players have discovered supplementary methods:
Gold Shard Substitution (Unconfirmed): Some players report that combining Gold Shards with Meteor Shards at a 1:3 ratio can create synthetic Obsidiron, though this method requires the Advanced Blacksmith class and isn't consistently reliable.
Trading Economy: On multiplayer servers, an informal economy has developed:
Before approaching the Meteor Anvil, ensure you have:

Understanding where Obsidiron Boots fit in the equipment hierarchy:
| Boot Type | Defense | Special Effects | Crafting Difficulty | Material Cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Leather Boots | 5 | None | Easy | 10 Leather |
| Iron Boots | 10 | Slight speed reduction | Medium | 15 Iron |
| Gold Boots | 8 | Status effect resistance | Medium | 20 Gold |
| Diamond Boots | 15 | Durability bonus | Hard | 5 Diamonds |
| Obsidiron Boots | 20+ | Fire resistance, speed bonus | Very Hard | Meteor materials |
The Obsidiron Boots clearly outclass all other options, making them worth the significant investment required.

The optimal window is between Days 10-20 when you have established resources but before end-game threats become overwhelming. This timing allows you to benefit from the boots' protection during the most challenging nights.
Yes, the process works in both single-player and co-op modes, though having friends makes the process much easier, especially for handling enemies while managing the intricate ingot-forging process.
Currently, Obsidiron Boots have unlimited durability and don't require repairs, making them a permanent upgrade once crafted.
Materials drop on death but can be recovered if you return quickly. Hot ingots will cool and become useless if not retrieved within their timer window.
Yes, completed boots can be traded, though most players prefer to keep them due to their rarity and usefulness.
No, but rumors suggest future updates may introduce enhancement systems for adding special effects or upgrading stats.
The event is random after Day 5 with no set schedule, though community data suggests an average occurrence every 5-7 game days.
No legitimate method exists, though some private servers have admin commands for testing purposes.
Crafting Obsidiron Boots contributes to several achievements:
Meteor Miner Badge: Mine 25 meteors using efficient tools like Chainsaw or Strong Axe Meteor Craftsman Badge: Craft 5 items at the Meteor Anvil, starting with inexpensive recipes Survivor Elite: Equip full Obsidiron armor set Day 99 Legend: Survive to Day 99 wearing Obsidiron gear
Preparation is Key: Stock up on healing items, weapons, and storage before the Meteor Shower event. You won't have time to gather basic supplies once meteors start falling.
Network Advantage: Join established communities and Discord servers where players share meteor alerts and coordinate farming sessions. Solo players often struggle to maximize meteor events.
Practice Makes Perfect: The Obsidiron Ingot forging process has a steep learning curve. Practice the heating and cooling steps during less critical crafting to master the timing.
Resource Investment: View Obsidiron Boots as a long-term investment. The time and materials required are substantial, but the survival advantages make them essential for serious players.
Server Hopping Strategy: If your current server's meteors are depleted, consider joining fresh servers around Day 5-6 to catch new Meteor Shower events.
