Want to know how to craft a Diamond Pickaxe in Minecraft and how this process differs from previous versions of the game? Over the years and many updates, diamond has changed, and it is now by no means the most durable material. But the players still appreciate this Ore, and you will not be able to advance in the plot of Minecraft without it. The diamond pickaxe is one of those items that, in theory, can be dispensed with and not created. You can walk through the game without crafting this item, but it’s still one of the best picks in the game, and you should craft it. To create a diamond pickaxe, you must spend three diamonds and two sticks, but in the latest versions of Minecraft, you will have several obstacles in your way.

How to Craft a Diamond Pickaxe in Minecraft

As we said, the recipe for creating a Diamond Pickaxe has remained the same as it has always been. To craft a diamond pickaxe in Minecraft, you must do the following:

  • Create a Crafting Table.
  • Place three Diamonds in the top slots of the Crafting Table.
  • Position two Sticks directly under the middle diamond.
  • Outwardly, the drawing will resemble a pickaxe, and if you did everything right, you will get a finished tool.

Craft is easy, and you will quickly create a diamond pickaxe having the necessary resources. Once you get this item, you can easily break obsidian to build a Nether Portal or craft an Enchanting Table. You can walk through the game without a diamond pickaxe. But it is vital for comfortable survival.

We said earlier that you would face some difficulties on the way to diamonds. The recipe for crafting a diamond pickaxe has not changed, unlike the method of obtaining this item. In our previous guide, we explained at what height diamonds spawn and why they are harder to mine. But in short, now you need to go to the depth from Y= 15 to Y= -63. At the same time, the best depth for diamond mining is not Y= 11/12, as was in earlier versions, but Y= -59. This means that you will have to mine for solid rock that will spawn below zero height. In addition, the terrible monsters of The Warden now appear in the depths of the mines. They are stronger than all surface mobs, and you won’t be able to defeat them using standard equipment.

Minecraft is available on PC, Mac, Linux, PS, Nintendo, Xbox, Android, and iOS.
