在Minecraft中，信标是一种可制作的方块，可为附近的玩家提供强大的增益。这些能量提升可以让你变得更强大、更有效率，但由于信标很难制作，它们通常是游戏后期的创作。
在本教程中，我们将介绍什么是信标、如何制作信标以及如何使用它们。
什么是信标？
信标是一种可以产生垂直光束的方块，玩家可以从远处看到它，作为返回该位置的向导。
每个Minecraft信标都是一个方块，但它们必须形成信标金字塔才能被激活。金字塔越大，信标的等级就越高。
信标可以为附近的玩家提供几种状态效果，类似于药水(potions)或附魔(enchantments)。其中包括五个主要权力和两个次要权力。状态效果的强度乘以信标金字塔的等级。
五个主要权力是：
- 速度 I：(Speed I:)增加移动速度（单级金字塔）。
- 急速 I：(Haste I: )提高采矿和攻击速度（单级金字塔）。
- Jump Boost I：增加跳跃高度（2级金字塔）。
- 抗性 I：(Resistance I:) 减少(Decrease)受到的伤害（2 级金字塔）。
- 强度 I：(Strength I:)增加近战伤害（3 级金字塔）。
两个次要权力包括：
- 再生 I：(Regeneration I:)自动再生生命值（4 级金字塔）。
- 将主要力量提高到 II 级（倍增其效果）。
由于某些所需材料难以获得，玩家通常会在游戏后期创建信标。如果您难以达到可以创建的地步，我们的Minecraft 初学者指南(Minecraft beginner’s guide)可能会有所帮助。
如何找到所需材料
要制作信标，您需要五个玻璃块、三个黑曜石块和一个下界之星。前两个很容易获得。要获得玻璃，请将沙子添加到熔炉中。要获得黑曜石，您只需要找到一些（它发生在水与熔岩接触的地方）并使用钻石镐开采它。
下界(Nether)之星是Minecraft中最稀有的材料之一，并且更难获得。要找到一个：
- 使用下界传送门(Nether Portal)前往下界(Nether)。
- 收集四块灵魂沙。
- 收集三个(Collect three) 凋灵骷髅(Wither Skeleton)头骨。这些有 2.5% 的几率从凋灵骷髅掉落，凋灵骷髅是在(Wither Skeletons)下界(Nether)要塞中 发现的具有挑战性的敌人。
- 在主世界(Overworld)中，用灵魂沙创建一个“T”形并将三个头骨放在上面。
- 凋灵(Wither)会生成。击败它，它会掉落一颗下界(Nether)之星。
注意：(Note: )我们展示了Java 版的屏幕截图，但如果您是控制台或(Java Edition)Minecraft PE玩家，请不要担心- 成分、配方以及如何激活信标在每个中都是相同的。
如何制作信标
准备好所有材料后，制作信标就很容易了。去你的工作台，在最上面一行添加三个玻璃块。在第二行，添加一个玻璃杯、下界(Nether)之星和另一个玻璃杯。在底行，添加三个黑曜石块。
制作配方如下所示：
如何激活信标
信标本身是不活动的。要激活信标，您必须将其放在由以下材料的任意组合制成的金字塔顶部：
金字塔有四个级别，每个级别都会增加信标功率和效果半径：
- 级别 1：(Level 1:)一个 3×3 的基础，总共 9 个块。它的范围为 20 个方块，效果持续时间为 11 秒。
- 2 级：(Level 2:) 5×5 底座和 3×3 顶部，总共 34 个方块。它的范围为 30 格，效果持续时间为 13 秒。
- 3 级：(Level 3:) 7×7 基础、5×5 中间和 3×3 顶部，共 83 个方块。它的范围为 40 格，效果持续时间为 15 秒。
- 级别 4：(Level 4:) 9×9 基础、7×7 第二层、5×5 第三层和 3×3 顶层，共 164 个块。它的范围为 50 个方块，效果持续时间为 17 秒。
金字塔准备好后，只需将信标放在金字塔中心的顶部，它就会激活。
信标每四秒对信标范围内的所有玩家施加选定的力量。这意味着当玩家保持在范围内时，效果是恒定的。当玩家离开效果区域时，威能会在效果持续时间的剩余时间内继续存在。因此，离开效果范围的最佳时间是在能量更新之后（即在下一个四秒周期开始时）。
如何使用信标
激活信标后，您可以右键单击信标以访问其菜单并选择您希望接收的状态效果。
要激活状态效果，您必须向信标提供金锭、铁锭、下界合金锭、钻石或绿宝石。为此：
- 将材料添加到打开的插槽(open slot)中。
- 选择您要激活的电源 的图标。(icon)
- 单击复选标记(checkmark)。
激活状态效果可以随时更改；你只需要喂它另一个项目。
要接收每个增益，您必须创建六个单独的信标。您的另一个选择是创建一个多信标金字塔，其基础为 10×11，第二层为 8×9，第三层为 6×7，顶层为 4×5。
最重要的是，信标以 2×3 的配置放置在中心。这可以使用尽可能少的资源从单个结构中提供所有六种信标效果。
你可以随心所欲地定制信标，用你想要的任何可接受的矿物块组合来制作它。您甚至可以自定义信标灯的颜色。为此，只需在信标顶部放置一个彩色玻璃块。
被光蒙蔽了双眼
希望在本分步指南的帮助下，您现在可以自豪地拥有(Hopefully)Minecraft中最受欢迎的物品之一。借助信标的能量提升，您将立即准备好对抗末影(Ender)龙。
How to Set Up a Beacon in Minecraft
In Minecraft, a beacon is a craftable block that gives nearby plaуers powerful buffs. These power-ups can make you far strongеr and more efficіent, but becausе beacons are so diffіcult to craft, they’re usually a late-game creation.
In this tutorial, we’ll cover what a beacon is, how you craft one, and how you can use them.
What Is a Beacon?
A beacon is a block that creates a vertical beam of light that players can see from a distance, acting as a guide back to that location.
Each Minecraft beacon is a single block, but they must be formed into beacon pyramids to be activated. The larger the pyramid, the higher the level of the beacon.
The beacon can provide several status effects to nearby players similar to potions or enchantments. These include five primary powers and two secondary powers. The strength of the status effects is multiplied by the level of the beacon pyramid.
The five primary powers are:
- Speed I: Increased movement speed (single-level pyramid).
- Haste I: Increased mining and attack speed (single-level pyramid).
- Jump Boost I: Increased jump height (2-level pyramid).
- Resistance I: Decrease damage taken (2-level pyramid).
- Strength I: Increased melee damage (3-level pyramid).
The two secondary powers include:
- Regeneration I: Automatically regenerates health (4-level pyramid).
- Increase the primary power to level II (multiplying its effect).
Because some of the required materials are difficult to obtain, players usually create beacons late in the game. If you’re struggling to get to the point that you can create one, our Minecraft beginner’s guide might help.
How to Find the Required Materials
To craft a beacon, you need five glass blocks, three obsidian blocks, and one nether star. The first two are easy to get. To obtain glass, add sand to a furnace. To get obsidian, you just need to find some (it occurs where water comes into contact with lava) and mine it using a diamond pickaxe.
The Nether star is one of the rarest materials in Minecraft and is a little harder to get. To find one:
- Travel to the Nether using a Nether Portal.
- Collect four blocks of soul sand.
- Collect three Wither Skeleton skulls. These have a 2.5% chance of dropping from Wither Skeletons, a challenging enemy found inside Nether fortresses.
- In the Overworld, create a “T” shape from the soul sand and place the three skulls on top.
- The Wither will spawn. Defeat it, and it will drop a Nether star.
Note: We’ve displayed screenshots from the Java Edition, but don’t worry if you’re a console or Minecraft PE player—the ingredients, recipe, and how to activate a beacon are the same in each.
How to Make a Beacon
Once you have all the materials, making the beacon is easy. Go to your crafting table and add three glass blocks to the top row. On the second row, add one glass, the Nether star, and another glass. On the bottom row, add the three obsidian blocks.
The crafting recipe looks like this:
How to Activate a Beacon
A beacon on its own is inactive. To activate the beacon, you must place it on top of a pyramid made from any combination of the following materials:
- Iron blocks
- Gold blocks
- Diamond blocks
- Emerald blocks
- Netherite blocks
There are four levels of the pyramid, each of which increases the beacon power and radius of effect:
- Level 1: A 3×3 base of 9 total blocks. This has a range of 20 blocks and an effect duration of 11 seconds.
- Level 2: A 5×5 base and 3×3 top with a total of 34 blocks. This has a range of 30 blocks and an effect duration of 13 seconds.
- Level 3: A 7×7 base, 5×5 middle, and 3×3 top with a total of 83 blocks. This has a range of 40 blocks and an effect duration of 15 seconds.
- Level 4: A 9×9 base, 7×7 second layer, 5×5 third layer, and 3×3 top layer with a total of 164 blocks. This has a range of 50 blocks and an effect duration of 17 seconds.
Once the pyramid is ready, simply place your beacon at the top in the center of the pyramid, and it will activate.
The beacon applies the selected powers to all players within the beacon’s range every four seconds. This means that while a player remains in range, the effects are constant. When a player leaves the area-of-effect, the powers continue for the remainder of the effect duration. The best time to leave the effect radius, then, is just after the powers are renewed (i.e. at the next four-second cycle begins).
How to Use a Beacon
Once your beacon is activated, you can right-click the beacon to access its menu and choose the status effects that you wish to receive.
To activate a status effect, you have to feed the beacon either a gold ingot, iron ingot, netherite ingot, diamond, or emerald. To do so:
- Add the material into the open slot.
- Select the icon of the power you’d like to activate.
- Click the checkmark.
The activated status effect can be changed whenever you like; you just have to feed it another item.
To receive every buff, you must create six individual beacons. Your other option is to create a multiple beacon pyramid with a 10×11 base, 8×9 second layer, 6×7 third layer, and 4×5 top layer.
On top of this, beacons are placed in a 2×3 configuration in the center. This provides all six beacon effects from a single structure using the fewest resources possible.
You can customize the beacon however you like, crafting it out of whatever combination of the accepted mineral blocks you want. You can even customize the color of the beacon’s light. To do so, just place a stained glass block on top of the beacon.
Blinded by the Light
Hopefully, with the help of this step-by-step guide, you are now the proud owner of one of the most sought-after objects in Minecraft. With the beacon’s power-ups, you’ll be ready to take on the Ender dragon in no time.
