<h4><strong><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/java-edition-snapshot-20w06a-1.png" alt width="383" height="41"></strong></h4>
<p>Crimson Forests can now be found in the Nether!</p>

<h3><strong><img src="https://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/java-edition-snapshot-20w06a-2.png" alt width="383" height="41"></strong></h3>
<ul>
<li>A new high-level material found in the Nether. Use it to upgrade your diamond gear!</li>
</ul>
<h4><strong>How to Make Netherite</strong></h4>
<ul>
<li>Mine Ancient Debris in the lower depths of the Nether. At own risk. No insurance coverage for that</li>
<li>Refine it into Netherite Scrap in a Furnace (although that’s kind of slow so you might want a Blast Furnace)</li>
<li>Combine 4 Nether Scrap with 4 Gold Ingots in a crafting table to make a Netherite Ingot</li>
</ul>
<h4>Netherite Effects</h4>
<ul>
<li>Netherite items float in lava so you don’t lose all your gear after that unplanned lava bath</li>
<li>Netherite items have higher enchantment value than diamond (but not as high as gold)</li>
<li>Netherite tools work faster and last longer than diamond</li>
<li>Netherite weapons do more damage than diamond</li>
<li>Netherite armor have higher toughness and durability than diamond</li>
<li>Netherite armor gives you knockback resistance, so you barely get knocked back at all when hit by arrows and such</li>
<li>…and it looks cool!</li>
</ul>
