This is a Town NPC. A House may be required in order for it to appear.

The Cobbler is an NPC vendor that will spawn once the following conditions have been met:

When threatened by enemies, he will defend himself by using a Nail Gun with craftman's nails.

Shine Shoes[ | ]

The Cobbler can also shine your shoes for free when you select the "Shine Shoes" in the dialogue window. The Shined Shoes buff increases your movement speed by 10%, run acceleration by 8% and jump height by 1 block. This effect stacks with other movement speed increasing effects. The buff also causes light to emit from the character in very small but bright twinkles originating from the feet. Although the light emitted is bright, it is not sufficient to explore dark caves or the surface at night.

The buff lasts for 3 minutes, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon.
