I remember when I strip mined 45 minutes in the nether looking for netherite ore (which isn’t a thing) and I found ancient debris and dropped it . Then later I found it was useful so I took it up and got killed by lava
I entered the nether yesterday but my nether portal is underground in the nether. I dug some netherac to get to the surface. I found 3 pieces of ancient debris. But i can't mine it because there is lava above it and i was about to die. I don't have fire resistance portion.

I recommend having a few fire resistant potions that last for 3 mins, trust me 3mins might not be much but it's useful for buying time if you fall in a lake of lava and there's land near by.
What's the point of having 3mins potion? Isn't it better just make them 8 minutes? And rather more resource efficient (and for sure more inventory-place-efficient)
@@tal9139 I’m pretty sure they’re saying if you find an ore like nether quartz or gold, you should start to mine around that because ancient debris may spawn around them. Other ores are allowed to spawn near ancient debris that are in the same chunk.
I have been using it the past couple of days, and it works great. Gotta be careful detonating it though ;) p.s. Hey, get this. I found my first piece of ancient debris totally by accident. I wasnt even looking for it. Just exploring;)
I’m guessing the face is because Wattles isn’t in Hermit craft and has to be invited which he hasn’t been? But idrk your going to have to ask Adrian over here exactly why the long face :)
RECOMMENDATION: After you get a simple (or advanced) creeper/mob farm, or efficiency 5 DO NOT USE BEDS ANYMORE! If you have the mob farm, use tnt! tnt is the most efficient way of getting netherite. Unlike beds, it can have chain explosions, stack, and it is much safer. If you do not have a mob farm: Use an efficiency 5 pickaxe and mine at level 15 on a chunk border. It is more efficient than beds as well. Also make sure you have mending on your pick! You instamine netherack, so your pickaxe will lose durability fast! Edit: I mined for an hour using tnt (making a ~100 block long tunnel and placing tnt on every other block), and I got about 80 ancient debris! With normal mining, I got about 30, and with beds, 25. The no chain reactions with beds is a HUGE downside, as well as all the fire, and the non stackableness
I too got 24 while searching, me and my friend each had 3 pieces of gears equipped. I did found another 8 a few days ago, finally we can have a full set of Netherite.
I always build a massive base in survival mode, then look at the space in it and don’t know what to do with all of it because I don’t even need that much room.
what works for me (this is more of an end game option) make a lot of stacks of TNT, dig a straight line as long as you want, place tnt in the whole thing, light it up BOOM BOOM boom and usually there's a couple here and there. i got over a stack in under an hour.
A tip from me for getting it which I find a TON safer! And more effective is try to get a diamond pick with Efficiency 4 or 5 and go on y11 or 12 and just clear out all the blocks on that level just going left to right holding down whatever your hit button is😁👍
That takes way more time and it’s just not efficient for mining in the nether. Lava is everywhere and why would you waste your diamond pick on netherack🥴
Fun fact: the bed is one of the worst ways to mine netherite/ancient debris because it causes fire making it easier to die and with TNT another explosive you can run away but for bed its an instant explosion making it more dangerous
Me: To do bed mining, I should probably grab at least one armor piece with blast protection 4, and bring some fire resist potions as well. Maybe even consider moving my brewing stand and potion ingredients to a starter room wattles: just throw the bed down and use it, boom. we're on fire but that's okay we're just gonna stop burning. It's fine. We're cool.
fun fact: bedrock players have a better chance of finding ancient debris that java players plus the best place to mine ancient debris in bedrock is Y 13
If you find ancient debris right away you can use it instead of cobblestones to protect you from beds. It will do much less damage and it's explosion + fire proof so even if you die in lava or fire it won't burn.
Tip: go as far as you can from the bed but also until you can touch the bed, then place 2 blocks in front of you, and finally when you touch the bed run back a little there you won't take damage.
Theres spmething that you missed to say actualy when you found accient debris mine the side of accient debris beacause theres hi percentage that acient debris will have some in their side i mined acient devris and i mine the side of i always get some in the side so when you found acient debris mind the sides.
