How to Make a Conduit Work in Minecraft: A Simple Guide
Last updated
Ever wondered how to fire up a Conduit in Minecraft? You’re in the right place! Let’s dig into what a Conduit is and how to get it working.
So, you’ve got yourself a Conduit in Minecraft and now you’re scratching your head about how to make it work? No worries, we’ve got you covered!
Quick Answer: Activating Your Conduit
To make a Conduit work in Minecraft, you need to build a frame for it. This frame is made from either Prismarine, Dark Prismarine, Prismarine Bricks, or Sea Lanterns. You’ll need to arrange these blocks in a certain pattern around the Conduit.
First, create a three-tier structure with these blocks that surrounds the Conduit. When done correctly, the Conduit will activate and begin emitting light and special powers, such as underwater breathing and improved mining speed underwater.
Step-by-Step to Conduit Power
To get your Conduit up and running, you’ll need a minimum of 16 blocks of Prismarine (or its variants) to create the smallest frame. For full power, however, you’ll need up to 42 blocks. The frame forms a three-dimensional shape that, once completed, awakens the Conduit’s magical abilities. These abilities are super handy for underwater exploration and building.
Remember, the Conduit’s powers only work when it’s in water or rain. So, if you’re planning to use it, make sure it’s submerged or exposed to the sky.
