The Obsidiron Chest is one of the most coveted end-game items in 99 Nights in the Forest, offering unique rewards and achievements. However, obtaining it is a multi-step process that requires patience and preparation. This guide will walk you through everything you need to know, from triggering the special event to crafting the final chest.
Step 1: Triggering the Meteor Shower Event
The entire process begins with a random world event.
When it Happens: The Meteor Shower event can only occur after Day 5.
The Trigger: The event is random. You will know it has started when a message appears on your screen saying, “The sky is on fire.”
What to Do: Once you see this message, prepare to explore. The event will cause meteors to crash down in a specific area, creating a Meteor Crater.
Step 2: Finding and Assembling the Meteor Anvil
After the Meteor Shower, a new crafting station becomes available.
Location: Open your map and look for a new icon: a red anvil. This marks the location of the Meteor Anvil, which is typically found inside a dedicated anvil building within the crater area.
Clear the Area: When you enter the building, you will likely encounter hostile Meteor Crabs. Defeat them to safely interact with the anvil.
Assemble the Anvil: The anvil parts will be scattered. Interact with them to assemble the complete Meteor Anvil.
Access the Blueprint: Once assembled, press E to interact with the Meteor Anvil. This will open a special crafting menu. The blueprint for the Obsidiron Chest will be the last item on the list.
Step 3: Gathering the Crafting Materials
The Obsidiron Chest requires three rare materials. Here’s how to get each one:
1. Meteor Shards (10 Needed)
Source: These are obtained by mining the large meteors found in the Meteor Crater.
Tip: They are the most common drop from the meteors. You will likely gather these quickly while searching for the other components.
2. Gold Shards (5 Needed)
Source: Gold Shards also drop from mining the meteors in the crater.
Tip: They have a lower drop rate than Meteor Shards, so you may need to break several meteors to collect enough.
3. Obsidiron Ingots (3 Needed)
This is the most complex material to obtain. Follow these steps carefully:
Step 3a: Get Raw Obsidiron Ore
Mine the meteors in the crater. There is a chance to receive Raw Obsidiron Ore.
Break the Ore: The raw ore is fragile. Drop it from a high place onto a hard surface to break it into a usable form.
Step 3b: Create a Scalding Obsidiron Ingot
Take the broken Raw Obsidiron Ore to a source of lava within the Meteor Crater.
Throw the ore into the lava. It will transform into a Scalding Obsidiron Ingot.
Step 3c: Cool the Ingot into an Obsidiron Ingot
The Scalding Ingot is too hot to use. You must cool it down.
Throw the Scalding Obsidiron Ingot into a body of water or a pond. It will then transform into a final, usable Obsidiron Ingot.
Repeat this entire process until you have 3 Obsidiron Ingots.
Step 4: Crafting the Obsidiron Chest
Once you have all the materials:
10 Meteor Shards
5 Gold Shards
3 Obsidiron Ingots
Return to the Meteor Anvil.
Interact with it and select the Obsidiron Chest blueprint. Placing the required materials into the anvil will activate the blueprint.
Take the activated blueprint and place it on the ground wherever you want the chest to appear.
Congratulations! You have successfully crafted the Obsidiron Chest. Open it to claim your unique rewards and achievement.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What if the Meteor Shower event doesn’t happen?
A: The event is random after Day 5. If it doesn’t trigger, you must continue surviving through subsequent nights until it occurs.
Q: Can I move the Meteor Anvil?
A: No, the Meteor Anvil is a fixed structure in the world. You must return to its location to craft the chest.
