Last updated
Ever wondered how to light up your Minecraft world with beacons? Well, wonder no more because we’re diving into the sparkling world of beacons and how to make them work!
So, how do you get a beacon to do its magic in Minecraft? Let’s break it down, shall we?
Lighting Up Your World: Making Beacons Shine in Minecraft
First things first, to make a beacon work in Minecraft, you need a beacon (obviously!) and some special materials to get it started. A beacon in Minecraft isn’t just a fancy light; it’s a powerful tool that can give you special powers like speed, strength, or even healing!
To get started, place your beacon on a pyramid made of iron, gold, diamond, emerald, or netherite blocks. You read that right, you need a whole pyramid! These pyramids can be 1 to 4 levels high, and the higher your pyramid, the stronger the powers you can get from your beacon. After setting up your beacon on top of the pyramid, just open the beacon’s menu, choose your power by feeding it a gem, and voilà! You’ve got yourself a working beacon.
