Obsidian equipment is a group of TzHaar weapons and armour from TzHaar City that is members only. Obsidian equipment is untradeable, and must be crafted by each player themselves. They are created using obsidian bars, forged from obsidian shards, which can only be obtained from the Fight Cauldron minigame. Obsidian armour is useful for players looking to obtain the TokHaar and Igneous capes, due to their special effect, which offers up to 55% damage reduction from obsidian monsters in the Fight Kiln and TzKal-Zuk fights. The obsidian helms are also the best-in-slot item for the TzKal-Zuk boss fight, as they offer 10% increased accuracy against obsidian monsters.

The names for all obsidian weapons and capes are in the TzHaar language, unlike other types of equipment.

Armour[edit | edit source]

Obsidian armour is a set of untradeable tier 60 all-class armour. It can be made from obsidian bars by players with level 80 Smithing. The bars are made from obsidian shards, which can be obtained by killing opponents in theFight Cauldronminigame.

There is no hybrid-class obsidian helmet, but instead a helmet for each combat style. They are the obsidian warrior helm, obsidian ranger helm and obsidian mage helm.

Special effect[edit | edit source]

Obsidian armour works as standard non-degradable all-class gear on the surface world, but it degrades and offers special effects in the TzHaar city and its three minigames, as well as the TzekHaar Front. It will heavily reduce all damage taken there, including damage from other players (PvP in the TzHaar Fight Pit). This damage reduction is cumulative of each armour piece, for a reduction of 55% when wearing the entire set and 45% without the kiteshield. One can receive a further 10% reduction in damage by donating tokkul at the coffer outside the Fight Cauldron, which will also reduce the rate of degradation (see below). The effect lasts for 20 minutes, and one may donate up to three times to extend the duration to a whole hour.

All pieces of armour have an initial 4000 charges before being completely degraded. They have a chance to lose charge from any hit taken in the TzHaar city or TzekHaar Front.

A helm increases accuracy against obsidian creatures by 10% in its respective attack style. The helms will also act as a slayer helmet when on a TzHaar task, increasing your damage by 12.5% and your accuracy by 12.5%.

The helmet buff does not work against TzKal-Zuk, but it does work against the TzekHaar in the prior waves.

To repair the armour, one may earn more shards from the Fight Cauldron and use them on the set. Without any donations, the armour can last on average for at least 20 plays of the Fight Kiln before degrading completely.

Repairing[edit | edit source]

Obsidian armour can be repaired at any time by using obsidian shards (not bars) on the pieces, or by left-clicking the shards to repair all equipped armour. Each shard will repair 100 charges out of 4000. Repair costs are shared across all items; charges are not wasted if an item has less than 100 charges to replenish, because it will use the spare charges to repair another item. Repairing obsidian armour does not require the smithing level needed to create each corresponding item.

A full repair on any item costs 40 shards. Assuming all items are completely degraded, it would be more expensive to repair than to replace them — except the platebody. For example, it takes 12 shards for 1 bar to make gloves, while a full repair takes 40 shards. Be careful not to accidentally repair all when attempting to smith shards; clicking on shards in the inventory will instantly consume them in repairs if the player is wearing obsidian armour.

Storage[edit | edit source]

Fully-charged armour pieces can be stored in an armour casein thecostume roomof aplayer-owned house.

Used armour cannot be stored in the case, unless it is repaired to full charge using obsidian shards.

Weapons[edit | edit source]

To obtain obsidian weapons, a player can either:

• Buy the items from the weapon shop in TzHaar for tokkul.
• Buy from the Grand Exchangeor trade with players.
• Obtain them as a rare monster drop in the TzHaar City.
• TzHaar whip is a Treasure Hunter reward. It can also be obtained by purchasing it from Vic the Trader. It does not count as obsidian in regards to the Berserker Necklace passive effect.
• Ek-ZekKil is created by combining the obsidian blade, the magma core, and the ancient hilt, all of which can be obtained after defeating TzKal-Zuk in hard mode.

Update history[edit | edit source]

Trivia[edit | edit source]

• The armour used to have level 80 stats, and used to make the wearer take 3x damage outside of TzHaar and TokHaar areas. However, in a later update, its stats were lowered to level 60, and the damage multiplier removed when it became a standard all-class set.
• The Brink of Extinction's newspost said 90 Smithing was required to create a full armour set from obsidian shards, when only 85 Smithing was required for the highest levelled piece, the platebody.
• As of the Mining & Smithing Rework Update of January 7, 2019, all pieces of the obsidian armour set only require 80 Smithing in order to create.
