Craftable Bedrock Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I get my first Bedrock block?
Collect 2 lava buckets, 2 water buckets, 4 obsidian, and 1 Netherite ingot, then place them in the crafting table using the mod's recipe to create 1 bedrock block. You'll need to visit the Nether to gather lava and find Netherite to get started.
Can I break Bedrock once I place it?
No, bedrock blocks are permanent once placed and cannot be broken by any conventional method—not even with a pickaxe or explosives. Place bedrock carefully and only where you intend it to stay permanently.
Where do I find Netherite for the recipe?
Netherite ingots are crafted by smelting ancient debris (found in the Nether) with gold ingots in a furnace. You'll need to mine in the Nether at low Y-levels to find ancient debris.
Can I use a bucket to collect lava and water from the same source?
Yes, you can reuse buckets—collect lava from one source and water from another, then use those same buckets in the crafting recipe. The buckets are consumed in the recipe, so you'll need to gather new ones for your next bedrock block.
Why isn't my Bedrock recipe working?
Make sure you're using the exact ingredients in the correct pattern: 2 lava buckets, 2 water buckets, 4 obsidian, and 1 Netherite ingot arranged as shown in the recipe guide. Check that your buckets are full and your Netherite ingot is a crafted ingot, not raw ore.
Can I use Bedrock to make a base that's completely unbreakable?
Yes, bedrock blocks cannot be destroyed by other players, mobs, or explosions, making them ideal for permanent structures. However, remember that bedrock is expensive to craft, so plan your builds carefully.
How much obsidian do I need for one Bedrock block?
You need 4 obsidian blocks per bedrock block. Obsidian is found in the Nether or can be created by pouring water on lava sources.
Does this mod work in multiplayer?
Yes, the mod works in multiplayer servers as long as the server has the mod installed. Bedrock blocks placed by one player remain permanent for all players.
Can I craft Bedrock in a furnace or other block?
No, bedrock can only be crafted using the standard crafting table with the specific recipe provided by the mod. Other crafting stations won't work.
What happens if I accidentally place Bedrock in the wrong spot?
You cannot remove it by any normal means, so it will remain there permanently. Plan your placement carefully and consider using creative mode to test your design before committing bedrock blocks in survival.
