How Do I Find Netherite in Minecraft?
Blocks of Netherite don’t spawn naturally in Minecraft. You must craft Netherite by smelting Ancient Debris in a Furnace. Ancient Debris is a rare material which appears only in the Nether, and it can only be mined with a Diamond Pickaxe. Netherite Scraps can be combined with Gold Ingots to make Netherite Ingots, which in turn can be used to craft powerful Netherite weapons, tools, and armor. To save room in your inventory, you can combine 9 Netherite Ingots to make a block of Netherite.

Where Do I Find Ancient Debris in Minecraft?
Ancient Debris spawns deep in the Nether usually in veins of 2-3 blocks. It’s most likely to appear below Y coordinate 15. To display coordinates, press F3, or go to Settings > Game > Show Coordinates (the middle number is the Y coordinate). Be careful as you dig down since you could run into lava. It’s best to dig yourself a winding stairway rather than digging straight down. Pay attention to your surroundings and make sure you can get back to your Nether Portal. It can get pretty dark, so make some torches to bring with you. Ancient Debris has a high blast resistance, so one strategy is to use TNT to excavate it. To make TNT, arrange 4 Sand blocks and 5 Gunpowder in the pattern below. Place the TNT on the ground and light it using Flint and Steel, then get out of the way. Most of the blocks will be destroyed, except for Obsidian and Ancient Debris. Keep blowing up blocks until you find all the Ancient Debris you need.
How Do I Craft Netherite Equipment?
To make Netherite tools, weapons, and armor, combine your Diamond equipment with a Netherite Ingot in a Smith Table. Follow these steps: Netherite tools are faster, stronger, and more durable than their Diamond counterparts. Likewise, Netherite armor provides better protection than Diamond armor, making it especially useful for fighting Withers and the Ender Dragon. As an added bonus, all Netherite equipment floats, even in lava.
