Minecraft was already full of rare items like diamonds and saddles to find, but each update only added more reasons to explore the more dangerous biomes. With the Minecraft Nether update, players were introduced to Netherite, a material that is elusive and stronger than diamond. Netherite is ideal if you want to go on dangerous adventures like slaying the Ender Dragon.
Unlike other materials, finding Netherite isn’t as simple as mining it or finding ore. You’ll need these tips and tricks if you want to master this powerful material.
How to make Netherite
In order to start mining Netherite, you’ll need to follow a few steps that may seem out of place when mining a material.
Step 1: Mine 12 Obsidian and create a Nether portal.
Step 2: Find Ancient Debris. Ancient Debris is an extremely rare ore that can only be found in the Nether. Ancient Debris is located farther below the surface than other materials. Your chances of finding more Ancient Debris will increase depending on the number of blocks from the bottom of the world you are.
Step 3: Smelt your Ancient Debris in the furnace to create Netherite Scrap.
Step 4: Combine four Netherite Scrap with four Gold Ingots to make a Netherite Ingot.
Step 5: Once you’ve collected Netherite Ingots, you’re ready to craft some strong tools and armor!
