Can you make a beacon with stained glass? Or can you only use regular glass then put stained glass on top?
@@BrettonFerguson no we can not do that
@@thereisonlyonegodandhisnam7777 OK thanks.
THE BEACON!!!!
What is the name of the song in 0:52
beacons should in my opinion have longer range depending which blocks are used to make it
Definitely would be a cool feature!
Then that would make grinding for a netherite beacon a thing which is something that mojan definitely wants to avoid
@@mattiarubio3240 I've only seen 1 TH-camr grind for it and it took him 6 months in his hardcore world

These tutorials make me feel so old. I’m 21 and used to play Minecraft every single day after middle school. All these new updates confused me with the new villager trading and stuff. Thanks for the help dude you’re the man.
same especially since i started playing back during alpha days when i was about 10 and stopped somewhere around 1.6 now coming back to it is both confusing and really exhilarating seeing all the new things to do and how much has changed over time
I'm 21 here too and it is exactly the same for me
i used to play on free shiginima launcher haha on a bad laptop
Yeah im 22 and know exactly what you mean haha. So much more in the game ive been absolutely addicted for the past two months
same brother
@@kilukac8839 same lmao my friends got me to play again after years and I've been having a blast, feels really nostalgic and still engaging since there's tons of new content
Itd be VERY useful if the beacon had a night vision option. Imagine not needing torches or other lights ever again when around it.
oh yeah that's a good idea
what if slow fall was an effect too?
Agreed.. tye trade off is mob spawns
Then you can use a conduit, just cover it in water at your base. Edit: It only works underwater
Mojang, take notes
When I first discovered your channel, that eye kind of creeped me out... but now you've become my favorite Minecraft youtuber! ^^ Great video! Really helpful!
Thank you!
What are you…

A tip I learned in an etho video is that you only need haste 1 for terracotta which means only needing 1 level of beacon (less cleanup after heading to the mesa biome)
Also never seen anyone mention the multiple effects bug you showed so thats awesome!
For sure, also its actually not a bug to have multiple effects because on bedrock the UI shows you being able to select 2 at once, there just isn't a good way of selecting two right now
it would be a glitch if you got two level 2 effects but the levels split between the two effects
Does it work for console ?
@@electus1158 Bedrock is console
that "bug" doesnt work in 1.20.2, alteast not for me
As soon as I was confused about beacons, you made a video on it. These guides are just perfect, thank you!
Glad to help!
I counted one hundred and eighteen times the word beacon was spoken in this video.
Thank you for your service
Love your videos man. They contain no nonsense, they're relaxing, and you're super knowledgeable and clear. Keep it up!
Beacons are very nice, but one thing I find somehow disappointing is that, by the time you can get a beacon, you probably dont need its regeneration or resistance effect. (hassle is always welcome, tho)
Yeah I don't get it at all, he only really showed one possibly helpful use of the beacon (not blaming him, it's Mojang).
Before this video I assumed the primary purpose of the beacon was at least as a beacon rendering at "infinite" distance to help find your way home etc. The fact that it doesn't even do what the name says is bizarre. And as you point out the possible bonuses are really pointless by the time you can build it.
fr we need a beacon revamp, that way it makes grinding for ores more useful. the ranges for size should start from a 48 block radius and add one chunk per level (lvl 2 - 64 / lvl 3 - 80 / lvl 4 - 96) and the material of the block should also increase the range like: emerald 1x / iron 1.5x / gold 2x / netherite 3x (yes, emerald first because they're easier to get, iron is easy too but iron farms aren't exactly a "game mechanic", emerald and gold are more "legit"); for example, a lvl 4 iron beacon would have a range of 144 blocks, gold would be 192 and netherite 288.
lvl 4 netherite beacons also should unlock the perk of having all effects at the same time on lvl III. all beacons should have unlimited range up and down. gold beacons should unlock fire resistance (to represent the nether) and netherite beacons should unlock blast resistance. the item you feed the beacon should be locked to the type of beacon you have, and for obvious reasons mixed beacons are no longer possible. and the beacon beam range should be infinite because what's the point in having a bright beam shooting up in the sky if you can't see it from virtually anywhere in the world?
considering how hard it is to drop wither skulls, kill the wither (legitimately) and specially to grind netherite I guess netherite beacons need a good reason to exist and my idea is pretty fair. people would be grinding for the wither much sooner and grinding ores much more, that would make the game better and more dynamic and give beacons the actual usefulness they deserve instead of being this lackluster they are. my idea isn't perfect but it's better than the current state of beacons, what do you think?
@@RafaelMunizYT
Wow those are brilliant ideas !
Minecraft needs to implement your suggestions 100% asap.
@@ReekRendTest1 thanks, I thought all this through as I wrote
Not only that, their range is so limited that it basically reduces it to a flex/decoration structure at best. Even for the largest beacon its range is very disappointing. You'd pretty much have to either try to build it under your base, which sucks because you want to be able to see the thing you spent so long grinding for, or you'd have to take the entire thing with you every time you go out to do something around the area of your base.
I think upgrading the block on the base of the beacon should make the range increase.
That could be a cool feature and would make things like netherite beacons be more possible
I thought that was the case until a month ago
@@Eyecraftmc Oh you do, do you do you and do you?
@@boringdude1626 no I don't
I tried once building a Lumpy Space section of the End on my server, and it worked great but some of the new blocks like Amethyst and concrete would've made it look a lot better.
The Beacons came in clutch, throughout most of the area was a continuous Jump Boost II effect and the main drink of the landscape was Potions of Slow Falling. You could genuinely pretend you were in space, jumping slowly in mid air towards another Lumpy cloud, never taking any fall damage.
I used the area for Adventure Time references, but also for selling Slow Falling Potions, it's ingredients, a few more potions, Chaurus Fruit, End Blocks and Elytras!
I wouldn't have been able to do half the things I did with the build without Beacons, praise be the Beacon!
On bedrock the beam only renders about 64 blocks in vertical and horizontal directions but the the affect still works despite not seeing the beam. The range is messed up on bedrock as well, the corners tend not to work up to a 14*14 to little as 3*3 and it’s a known but that they don’t plan on fixing.
ik the light stops but for some reason so did my effects i’m right above it yet i don’t get any effects
i think it's better now
Only recently found you, but already fell in love with your content! Very informative and useful. And as the cherry on top, your voice is very calming!
Came in clutch with the wither information and back at it with another thing I was currently looking for! Awesome video!
Just yesterday I built a beacon for the first time ever and today you uploaded this video. Nice timing!
thank you Eyecraftmc! always learn a new things from your video. as a newbie your video helped a lot. one thing that as a newbie at Minecraft still not clear about the game progression in survival especially your video that you make only till diamond tools, enchantment and nether gate. hope you can make this guide. even at the others I haven't found this topic. Thank you!
was literally about to see if you had a beacon guide then you upload this! thank you!
you are awsome man youre literally the only guy i know that makes tutorials so understandable
Thanks,I really needed this
Thank you for this video! I didn’t realize the beacon effect went all the way up, so I dug down and placed my big beacon right in the center of my base. Love it!
I just came back to Minecraft after over a year and I forgot how beacons work, this was very helpful thank you
Finally seeing this now (2024), and it's a GREAT tutorial! I really enjoy the mellowness of your pacing and voice! So tired of others who shout and go 200 mph through a tut. Yeesh. Thanks for all you do, Eyecraftmc! You're on my subscribed list: one of the very few! :)
Thanks for the bedrock info I really enjoy your videos and live streams keep up the fantastic work! You're awesome 😎
Congrats on your amazing survival base!
that was so helpful, didn't know a lot of that thank you
Nice guide. I'm a bedrock player and always hate that the beam just stops rendering at a distance
I was really hoping you would post this after that wither video, nice!
Hi !! Thanks I really needed that video for my base
Glad it helps!
Very helpful, beacons used to make no sense but now i know everything.
Thanks!
No Problem!
I love your style of video. So many Minecraft youtubers are so annoyingly bubbly and cheerful to cater to children.
thanks for includind some bedrock and java stuff, it helps a lot. i play on bedrock, and it gets annoying that most youtubers only do java.
This video couldn't have come at a more perfect time! Thanks! ❤
Incredible timing we just got our star abt to make a beacon really useful.
I thought beacons were just to mark your base
Average creative player
@@fwipdfr😂
I thought it's a tesarract cube
Lmao no the longer u go away from it the more its going to dissapear because of render distance
Thank you for all you do. I had to subscribe when I saw how to use the shriekers/sensors
Man, thanks bro!
this tutorials always are the best, ive saw so mani wikis and alwais in your channel is something that the wikis does not say thx you so much your content is the best
Thanks, I really wanted to build one!
Perfect!
Thanks for the guide.
I was just gonna start making a beacon but forgot how they work ty uploaded this today king
Your voice is so soothing, I love learning new things about minecraft from watching your videos.
That survival base is sick 🔥🔥
I didn't know that you can get the effect of the beacon if a player is under it but just in the area defined by the power it has. Very cool. I am sad that you can't get an additional effect if you build a netherite beacon because if requires a lot of materials and a lot of time to gather all the materials. A fire resistance effect would be cool since this ore can be find in the Nether. We need to instamine every block as in Bedrock one day 🤣. Thank you so much for all these useful information regarding the beacon Eyecraft.
i love how u put alot of time into this video💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Your timing is impeccable I was just about to search up beacon know hows
Perfect!
Best kind of trophy things to do in my opinion, really proud when you get it in survival
Just what I needed! Thank you EyeCraft! 🤗 I'm almost thinking you might be psychic. 🤔😲 You always make the content that I need at the moment I truly need it. 😊 Again, thank you.
Npc
Got my sub thank you for the knowledge old school player since before beds. And I haven't played in 2014 and just got back into the game ad there's a lot I'm needing to learn lol
Jump boost 2 is my fav, it helps A LOT with building
Talking about insta mining tips there is a weird bug about mining at maximum distance in bedrock. You can mine faster every block (I'm not sure if it is instamining) if you start to mine at the maximum distance to mine a block. And you can clear it just by walking and mining (as if you were sweeping the blocks) even if your tool is not enchanted and can even work if you are running. This works with all blocks I think (not all being instamined but kind of a buff to mine) but I haven't tried them all.
I think the range on the beacons should be 100x blocks away per block you have on the beacon. Knowing how long it takes to even get a single beacon takes forever and your already in the end game of minecraft and should obviously have pretty much everything in the game. So the beacons at this point are worthless since why would you need to mine more for more diamonds or harvest more for emeralds other then to flex. Good video though ty for showing what the powers do
Always love this guy's videos ❤️
Thanks!
Great video
Idk if you already have one but another red stone video with some more complicated things would be really great from you!
These videos are so helpful! Thank you for the tips!
This guy made my day
love your voice, nice guide!
Nice video eyecraftmc I'm your new subscriber
Thanks!
I keep a beacon kit and a conduit kit in a shulker in my ender chest. It comes in handy all the time if you are spending alot of time in a world.
My ranking of beacon effects are: 1. Speed, 2. Haste, 3. Resistance, 4. Regeneration, 5. Strength and finally: 6. Jump Boost
Fun fact: on the WiiU version of Minecraft there's no limit to how far away you have to be from the beacon to not see its beam.
wow so you can see beacon beams until they become smaller than a pixel?
Pretty much. You could have that beacon on one corner of the world and yourself in the opposite corner, and you could still see the beam. It's sad that the beacon kind of lost that ability in the other versions.
Nice preview
My knowledge in beacons is like my knowledge in maths, none, so this video really helped me out, thanks again!
12:45 it can also go through end crystals, dragon eggs, and other beacons
I did not know about the 2 primary powers thing that’s crazy
thanks
...nice beacon in a box. That's a decent use of the box that I always set up and never utilize.
I've seen someone use like some kind of piston Redstone machinery to change the colors periodically of the beacon. You should definitely tell us how to do that because I don't even know how to do that. I just know that the Pistons would every so often push a different glass into the path of the beacon
You should be able to mark a beacon on a map or link it to a compass like a lodestone
Can I ask a question? When beta updates are coming to normal Minecraft? Great video by the way. I really needes to know about Beacons. Also, I think your voice is very calming!
I'm assuming your asking when snapshots/bedrock betas will be coming out for 1.20? If so It will be likely be about 1-2 months after minecraft live so probably november or december
@@Eyecraftmc Yes, it is. Thank you so much.
Beacons can also go through slime blocks and certain trap doors which is cool
Very convenient video i just made my first beacon in forever
still've yet to fight a whither, but i've only just got my first elytra and shulker so a beacon will come soon enough, at least now i know how to use it!
Perfect guide as always
What a really good base
the energy of having a full gold beacon right beside a simple cube hut all surrounded by unlit darkness XD
Hope they will add instant mine logs and cobblestone in java as well. Parity changes shouldn't be only for bedrock
New guide from my cutie eyecraft. Yes please. Needed this one too.
What a day, a new Eyecraft vid, a new wattles vid, and one from ibxtoycat too. Maybe I'll be able to play some if ya'll will stop uploading =D
And you can also putt a door fence on the beacon to make the beam solid and it will turn normal if you opened the fence door you forgot saying this :)
Thank you! I used to be a beacon guy, but I stopped. This helps!
good tutorial
Really hoping that we get the RGB color mixing from Java in Bedrock in a future parity update.
xD this was helpful
I do have a question, how would we build a beacon pyramid with 2 beacons with 2 different effects?
Wish they'd make copper blocks work with beacons, because it takes up so much room in my chests and frankly I'm not talented enough to build with it. As always, we appreciate the content.
10 years of playing this game and I’m still using videos guides
Kinda wish the size of the pyramid and what material the blocks were would affect the beacon effects. Like imagine going through the effort to make a like, 33x33 pyramid out of pure diamond blocks and you get a like, 200-block radius with Speed20.
Could be the larger the pyramid, the wider the effect radius, and the rarer the material, the stronger the effect. Could also have no cap, so if someone wanted to invest the time to make a 45x45 pyramid out of Netherite Blocks to get an absurd effect multiplier in a massive range, they could.
I was wondering if you could do that! So you can have two primary effects. So you have to choose the secondary effects as the same one and then go back and select another one. Okay I'm definitely going to experiment with that in bedrock
What songs are you using in this video? Very helpful video, I now know I need 8700+ ancient debris for a 6 beacon on all Netherite. Time to mine!
Best explanation of becon
Do you have a video showing your base in your world? Would like to see that
i think mojang should add a lava beacon just like the conduit(water beacon) it would give you fire resistence and lava vision
I got the beacon & chose haste II but.. I don't see any difference in mining? am I doing something wrong? I see the effect applied on top right
I usually make a 2x2 beacon for aesthetics and just go without jump boost.
Hi eyecraft i don’t have a favourite beacon power but i would have all 6 powers and put a tier 4 iron beacon 50 blocks away, and the final information i would have 10,000 beacons and i know a stacking iron farm could get me to 14,760,000 iron ingots.
resistaince and haste have to be the top effects since you cant get it any other way and you can unlock it at level2
The beam can also go thru half slaps maybe thatswhy it also goes thru the endportal block
For survival players this seems like aloot of work for not alot of benifit tbh. Hoped the wither would drop like a cool weapon or something.
Most of the time the only beacon effects i actually need are haste 2 and regeneration (for afking) I just make a quad beacon to flex
