The color of the beam may be changed by placing blocks of stained glass (or stained glass panes) anywhere above the beacon block.

In Bedrock Edition, the beam is visible up to 64 blocks away, regardless of how high the render distance is set.

In Java Edition, the beam is visible up to 1342 blocks away.

Multiple beacons pyramid (tier 4 can enable all buffs)Ī vertical beam appears from a beacon if the beacon is activated, extending from the beacon block up to beyond the top of the world. It requires a total of 244 mineral blocks, with a base layer of 10 by 11. The image to the right shows a 6-beacon (2 by 3) pyramid.

Combined pyramids do not need to be symmetrical.

Multiple beacons can make use of the same specific mineral blocks below them. This six-Beacon pyramid provides all six effects from a single structure using the fewest mineral blocks possible. This applies to piston-altered pyramids as well. If the pyramid is damaged so that the beacon deactivates, the previously-set powers resume their effects upon reactivation when the pyramid is repaired. Several different block types can be mixed without affecting functionality. The type of mineral block used to build the pyramid is entirely cosmetic and has no functional effect. More pyramid levels make more powers available in a wider affected vicinity.

Pyramids are the structures required to activate beacons. From left to right the pyramid structures decrease in complexity and strength. The four possible pyramid arrangements when using the beacon block.
