To get the most powerful gear in the game, you must process vanilla Diamonds through your Create machinery to obtain Adamantium Ingots, as there are no raw ores to mine. First, feed Diamonds into a Crushing Wheel to pulverize them into Raw Adamantium (with a specific output probability 15%). Next, put that Raw Adamantium into a Mechanical Mixer equipped with a Blaze Burner and mix it directly with Lava to fuse the components into solid Adamantium Ingots. Because of the extreme density of this metal, you cannot use a standard 3x3 Crafting Table to create the final equipment; instead, you must use a Smithing Table to plate the material over your existing Netherite setup. To forge any piece, open a Smithing Table and combine 1x vanilla Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template in the first slot, your current piece of Netherite equipment (Netherite Sword, Pickaxe, Shovel, Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, or Boots) in the second slot, and 1x Adamantium Ingot in the third slot. The table will instantly forge the item into its final form (Adamantium Sword, Adamantium Pickaxe, Adamantium Shovel, or the corresponding Adamantium Armor piece), transferring all previous enchantments, granting massive durability boosts, and activating custom weight mechanics that realistically lower your walking speed when the armor is equipped.
