I’m gearing up for a showdown with the Bedrock Wither, but I’m super nervous about fighting it in hardcore mode. I’m terrified of losing my entire world. Any tips or strategies for taking down this big bad boss without risking it all?

A popular way to handle the Bedrock Wither is by trying to suffocate it underneath the End portal. It is an old trick—you spawn it there and let it get stuck and eventually suffocate. However, I heard it might not work as consistently in Bedrock Edition, so test it out in creative first if you can.
One strategy is to tackle the Wither deep underground, like at the deepslate levels. Gear up with a ton of golden apples and make sure you’re in full Netherite armor. My partner and I did this, and while it’s still a tough fight, it becomes more manageable with really strong gear.
Getting Netherite sounds smart. I tried with just diamond gear, and the fight got really rough after halfway. Maybe beefing up to Netherite would give me the extra edge I need.
