[Top 5] Minecraft Best Levels for Ancient Debris

Minecraft Best Levels for Ancient Debris
Time to get your full Netherite armour


What do you need to get your hands on this rare ore?

Ever since its inclusion in the game, Ancient Debris has become one of the most popular resources in Minecraft, due to being the strongest material for crafting weapons and armour, this durable item is also very hard to come across; one of the biggest complications is the fact that it can only be found in the Nether, which is a very hostile and dangerous dimension; making everything even more complicated than it already is; for that reason, we gathered the top 5 easiest ways to find it so you don’t end up breaking all of your pickaxes right before you find it. 

 

5. Strip Mining: 

Strip Mining 

Strip Mining is the simplest way to find a fancy item in Minecraft, although it might be a bit time consuming it doesn't involve any explosions that can harm you in the process or the need to venture within a Bastion, all it takes is a Pickaxe and to dig a straight line, once you have made your tunnel all it takes is to mine from each side then walk four blocks and repeat the process until you get to the end of your tunnel or find your precious Ancient Debris. 

  • Why strip Mining is awesome:
  • Does Not require explosives
  • Risk-free 

 

4. Chunk Mining:

Chunk Mining

Chink Mining is a little like strip mining but better, all you need is to set your world to show you the Chunk borthers (F3+G), once activate it you have to dig to the 11layer of your world and dig a square that's delimited by the chunk then dig straight to the centre and since Ancient Debris spawns in most chunks you will definitely find some by using this method. 

Why is awesome:

  • Fast Mining
  • No explosives needed
  • Risk-free

 

3. Bastion Hunting:

Bastion hunting for Ancient Debris

Bastions are a kind of structure that appears in the nether, it is generally full of loot and Gold hidden inside the structure, but if you are lucky enough there is a small chance that you will come across Ancient Debris hidden in some of the chests that are kept within the bastion; just remember to bring your sword since Bastions are guarded by Piglins that are not willing to give up on their precious minerals. 

Why is Bastion Hunting awesome:

  • Not so dangerous 
  • Not much mining is needed

 

2. TNT Mining:

Using TNT to find Ancient Debris

TNT mining is a great way to look for Ancient Debris in the Nether if you have a full stack of TNT that you can use on mining, although it might need far more resources than some of the other ways on the list, TNT mining is fun and a good way to use your TNT.

Why is TNT Mining awesome:

  • Fast mining
  • Enough time to get a safe distance from the explosion 

 

1. Bed Mining:

Mining for Netherite with beds

Every veteran player knows that you cannot sleep in the Nether, trying to do so will result in a huge explosion that will instantly kill the player; but, some players found out that by doing this from a safe distance they could exploit this feature and make Ancient Debris mining a lot faster and easier. Although it could be a bit dangerous, Bed Mining is the go-to for many players since beds are easier to make and the explosion will leave a bigger amount of exposed materials. Just do it at your own risk, and remember to use fire resistance and blast protection.

Why is Bed Mining awesome:

  • Fast Mining 
  • Easy to make 

 

Now that you know the top 5 levels of Ancient Debris it's time to get your diamond pickaxe and get ready for a fun and enriching session of mining in the Nether!
