CinderStride Lava Walker

CinderStride – Walk on Lava

> Walk on lava in Minecraft. > A vanilla friendly mod that adds lava walking boots, similar to Frost Walker but for the Nether.

Hidden in Bastions is a relic that lets you cross lava oceans like they’re solid ground.

> Works great with HearthGuard. HearthFires get stronger and mobs really don’t like them.

1.1.0 Update

This update adds a full upgrade path and a few survival improvements that make the boots feel a lot better to use long term.

• Upgradeable boots
• No durability loss while walking on lava
• Magma block protection
• You can walk on magma without taking damage
• Lava fall safety
• Falling into lava creates a temporary basalt platform under you
• You still take fall damage, this just saves you from the lava
• HearthFire
• Use a Cinder Core on a campfire to upgrade it

Early on the boots feel risky. Later on they become something you can rely on.

Features

• Walk across lava without bridges or fire resistance
• Lava turns into temporary basalt under your feet
• The path collapses behind you if you stop moving
• Designed to encourage exploration of Bastions by adding rewards
