Anyone who has played Minecraft for a long time will certainly remember that the diamond sword was the strongest in the game. However, since update 1.16, the game has received netherites, powerful items capable of improving weapons and armor to make them stronger and more resistant.

However, the item and its raw materials can only be found in the Nether, in chests in buildings, or near places with lava. Other than that, it cannot simply be manufactured, as it is necessary to have other items to get to it. The process is long, but it will be worth it. So, check out each step below to get the netherite sword, the strongest in Minecraft.

  • Collect a block of ancient debris, which can be found floating in lava;
  • Cook it to turn it into netherite scrap. Each block generates a fragment;
  • Once you have four, mix them with four more gold bars (which can be mined, found in villages, or made with nuggets) to get the netherite bar;
  • Know that each recipe generates a bar, so make as many as you need.
