If you’ve been playing Crimson Desert, it’s obvious that Pearl Abyss drew inspiration from other open-world RPGs like Skyrim when creating this massive game. If you enjoyed Water Walking Boots in games such as Skyrim, you’ll want to get your hands on Crimson Desert’s version: the Vaporwalker Boots.
While they might not have the visual flair of sets like the Armor of Shadows, the Vaporwalker Boots feature some of the coolest effects in the game. Get ready to glide over water as if you’re on a speedboat with these boots in Crimson Desert.
Where to Find the Vaporwalker Boots
Just like the Frostcursed Armor Set and Armor of Shadows, the Vaporwalker Boots are available anytime you choose to explore—no need to wait for a specific progression moment. However, if you prefer to acquire them naturally without disrupting the main storyline, you can wait until Chapter 7. By then, the story will guide you to an area between Demeniss and Pailune.
If you’re eager to find the boots immediately, here’s how to locate them quickly in Crimson Desert:
– Head to the rivers near The Ancient Rift, just south of the ‘P’ in Pailune, and slightly northeast of The Sage’s Peak.
– Look for a large waterfall with a split in the middle, dividing it into two smaller waterfalls.
– Approach the middle section of the waterfall on the right side if you’re facing it directly.
– You will notice a small glowing spot behind the waterfall, indicating there’s something hidden behind it.
– Use the Stab skill (L1/R1 + Triangle/Y) to stab the water and dash through the rushing water, giving you access to the area behind the waterfall.
Use Force Palm (R3/RS click) on the wall blocking the path to break it down. Enter the passage behind the rock to reach Ancient’s Heart Cave. Inside, you’ll find a treasure chest in the back. Open it to claim the Vaporwalker Boots and a Refined Palmer Pill.

| Armor Name | Attack | Defense | Refinement | Effects |

How to Use the Vaporwalker Boots
To make best use of the Vaporwalker Boots, get a running start and press LS/L3 to slide over water, quickly crossing shallow waters with style. Keep in mind, these boots only work in shallow water—deep bodies of water are off-limits, making their use a bit more niche. Nonetheless, sliding across water in this way remains incredibly fun and useful for swift traversal.
