Terraria: How To Get Obsidian Skin Potions

If you're exploring the caves of Terraria, chances are you'll come across lava, and if you get down to the Hell biome, the place is absolutely full of it. There are massive lakes of lava, pockets of lava around the ash and Hellstone, lava inside ruined buildings, and enemies can even release it on death on certain difficulties.

If you wade in without protection, you'll quickly be burnt to death and lose valuable currency alongside getting sent back to your spawn, throwing a proverbial wrench in whatever you were doing. Some accessories can help, but it takes a while to get them and takes up valuable slots. Get some Obsidian Skin Potions instead, and make dealing with lava easy.

How To Get Obsidian Skin Potions

There are two ways to get Obsidian Skin Potions: crafting them yourself at either an Alchemy Table or Crafting Bench with a Glass Bottle placed on it or finding them in certain types of crates and chests in the world.

How To Craft Obsidian Skin Potions

Crafting them yourself is the more sustainable option, but it requires visiting both the Desert and Hell at least once and digging or exploring down far enough to obtain a decent supply of Obsidian.

Potion Material	How To Obtain
Bottled Water x1	Craft with a Glass Bottle when near or standing in a body of water at least four tiles wide, or when near a sink.
Fireblossom x1	Found growing in The Underworld biome on Ash Blocks or when opening a Herb Bag.
Waterleaf x1	Found growing in the Desert biome on Sand Blocks or when opening a Herb Bag.
Obsidian x1	Made when Water and Lava collide in any biome or at any height.

Where To Find Obsidian Skin Potions

With chests, they can only be found in Shadow Chests, one of two main chest types found in the Hell biome, and these need a Shadow Key to unlock them, so you'll have to beat the Skeleton at least once and unlock at least one Dungeon Chest.

• Each Shadow Chest has around a ten percent chance of containing one to three Obsidian Skin Potions.

You can also occasionally find Obsidian Skin Potions when breaking vases found in Ruined Houses in the Underworld biome.

As for crates, you can find Obsidian Skin Potions in any type of pre-Hardmode or Hardmode type, with the only difference between them being when they're available and your chance of getting the potion from them.

You can use the crates to obtain the potions much earlier as they can be fished up in any biome and with any type of fishing rod, and have some Obsidian Skin Potions available before you get to Hell and can begin getting Fireblossoms to craft them yourself.

• Crates with a one in 70 chance for the potion can drop between one and three Obsidian Skin potions.
• Crates with a one in 15 chance for the potion can drop between two and five Obsidian Skin potions.
• All other crates have a chance to drop between two and four Obsidian Skin potions.

You can use Fishing Rods with a higher Fishing Power and buffing potions and items like the Fishing Potion, Crate Potion, and Angler Earring to increase your chances of hooking a crate.
