Ancient Debris (Ancient Debris) is a rare and rare ore added to the Nether dimension in the 1.16 Nether update of "Minecraft". It can be used to smelt Nether alloy fragments, and finally produce the world's most powerful - Weapons, tools, and armor from the Netherite series.
So a thought-provoking question arises: How to obtain ancient wreckage ores in large quantities and efficiently? What is the ancient debris level ?
01
Where do Ancient Wrecks generate the most layers?
Just like diamonds, when we clearly know that diamonds are the most in lava layers, diamonds seem to become less rare. Therefore, we need to figure out which layer should have the most amount of ancient wreck ore?
Let's take a paragraph about the setting of ancient wreck generation on the Minecraft wiki:
Ore veins are produced by ancient detritus in the Nether. Each block will generate up to 2 ore veins: one of them contains 1-3 ancient wrecks, generated between layers 8-22, and the generated number obeys a normal distribution (similar to lapis lazuli ore); the other contains 1-2 Blocks of ancient wreckage, randomly distributed between floors 8-119. Each block can generate up to 5 ancient wrecks, and when they are generated, they will not be exposed to the air.
So in fact, on average, the ancient wreckage in Minecraft is at the height of Y=15, and its generation frequency is the highest.

The mining technology of ancient wrecks - blasting;
First of all, we determined the number of layers to dig "ancient wrecks" to be the 15th layer of the Nether Dimension, which is beyond doubt. Next is the focus of our talk!
①Material preparation: First, a large amount of wool is needed to make a bed. A semi-automatic wool farm can be used here. Players use the launcher to launch scissors, so that the wool can be cut directly, and a collection device is added. After the wool grows out, it is recycled again. By repeating this, a large number of wool cubes can be collected.
② Make beds, a lot of beds! Beds are in the Nether and the End, and they are definitely a blasting tool far better than TNT! So you can also see here that our mining methods are very ugly. Directly use the bed to carry out the blasting operation on the 15th floor of the lower bound! And it is recommended to carry out the blasting operation at the junction of the two blocks!
③ All armors should be fire-resistant, that is, all armors will be enchanted with full-level flame protection! This set of equipment can be traded with villagers to obtain the corresponding enchanted books. Full-level flame protection armor, even swimming in magma will lose blood very slowly!
④Prepare an easy-to-use pickaxe. Before you get the nether alloy pickaxe, your minimum configuration is only a diamond pickaxe.
03
Blasting efficiency: more than one group per hour!
When blasting on the 15th floor of the Netherworld of "My World", remember to place some blocks between the bed and the player. The blocks can be used as a buffer to effectively avoid explosion damage.
This is actually a natural advantage of the Nether dimension: ① Beds can replace TNT for blasting; ② Netherrock is really brittle; the only thing you need to pay attention to is fire and lava, and this can be completely compensated by fire protection.
Therefore, compared with the fishbone mining of diamond mines in the main world, even though ancient wrecks are rarer than diamond mines, the excavation rate of ancient wrecks is no less than that of diamonds in the case of large-scale blasting! Of course, if you use a shield machine to dig Diamonds, let's talk about it!
In a simple test, we can dig up about 9-10 ancient wrecks in 10 minutes of blasting, or even higher. In other words, on average, a group of ancient wrecks in 1 hour is no problem at all!
Finally, this explosive excavation theoretically applies to all versions of Minecraft, but the bedrock version has a slightly higher probability of generating ancient wreckage than the JAVA version. But in any case, this is a more efficient mining method. The advantage of the JAVA version is that it can make a shield machine and use the method of copying TNT for fully automatic mining. It saves the project of pulling wool.
(ps: Some people may mention: Wouldn’t this kind of explosion cause the ancient wreckage to fall into lava and flames and be burned? My answer is: first of all, it is explosion-proof! Secondly, the ancient wreckage in the form o
f items is fireproof and lavaproof.)
