Suit Up

Tab: MinecraftDifficulty: Easy

Quick answer: Protect yourself with a piece of iron armor

Tree path: Minecraft › Stone Age › Getting an Upgrade › Acquire Hardware › Suit Up (advancements are independent: they can be completed in any order; the tree only guides progression)

Tree parent: Acquire Hardware

Advancements are exclusive to Java Edition. The Bedrock Edition equivalent is achievements, which have different objectives.

How to get Suit Up

  1. Mine iron ore: it generates at almost every height, with extra ore in mountain peaks around Y=232 and a second rich band deep underground around Y=16. A stone pickaxe or better is enough.
  2. Smelt the raw iron in a furnace or blast furnace into iron ingots. A full set costs 24 ingots; boots are the cheapest piece at 4.
  3. Craft any piece of iron armor at a crafting table.
  4. Pick the piece up: the advancement triggers the moment any iron armor piece sits in your inventory. You don't even have to wear it.

Tips

Armorer villagers sell iron armor for emeralds, village armorer chests can contain iron pieces, and zombies or skeletons occasionally drop them. Any way of getting one into your inventory counts.
