How to Get Netherite Upgrade Smithing Templates in Minecraft

Netherite Upgrade Smithing Templates, on the other hand, can be found exclusively on Bastion Remnant chests featured in the Nether area. Treasure chests featured in the structures are guaranteed to drop one Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template.

You will be able to find the bastions randomly in all biomes featured as part of the Nether region, with the exception of Basalt Deltas. All Bastion Remnants located in the Nether will feature a total of two Smithing Templates.

How to Craft Smithing Templates in Minecraft

You can craft a copy for an already-owned Smithing Template in Minecraft by using the Crafting Table and then adding 7 Diamonds on the slots in the edges. After doing that, just add one block of the same material your desired template is made of in the first slot in the middle/top, and the Smithing Template you wish to duplicate in the open slot below it.

After all the items are placed, you will be able to claim two Smithing Templates (your already-owned copy and the newly generated one).
