How Do You Craft a Beacon in Minecraft?

Ever wondered how to light up your Minecraft world with something super cool? Let’s talk about crafting a beacon, a powerful block that can give you special powers. Crafting a beacon can seem like a mystery, but we’re here to clear that up.

So, how do you craft a beacon in Minecraft? Let’s dive in and find out.

Short Answer: You Need a Nether Star

To craft a beacon, you first need to collect a Nether Star. This isn’t something you find lying around; you have to defeat a Wither, a powerful boss in Minecraft, to get it. Sounds like a tall order, right? But trust us, it’s worth the effort for the awesome powers a beacon can give you.

Once you have the Nether Star, you’ll also need three obsidian blocks and five glass blocks. Place the Nether Star in the middle of the crafting table, the three obsidian blocks across the bottom, and fill the remaining slots with glass blocks. There you have it—a beacon!
