Whether it’s a purely decorative block or a workbench-type block like a crafting table, furnace, smoker, fletching table, or smithing table, every block in Minecraft serves a purpose. Aside from workbench blocks, players can also come across other uncommon blocks like beacons and a block called the conduit that is very similar to the beacon.
Conduits are building blocks that use the Conduit Power status effect to grant a variety of different bonuses or buffs to any nearby players. This block’s capability to attack hostile mobs within its target range is a fantastic additional feature.
The Water Breathing, Night Vision, and Haste effects provide the Conduit Power status effect’s bonuses or enhancements. The player can only get the Night Vision and Haste effects when they are within the conduit’s underwater range. This article will instruct users on how to activate a conduit in the most recent update to Minecraft.
What is a Conduit and Conduit Power?
In Minecraft, a conduit must be constructed in a 3x3x3 body of water. Once constructed, it grants you “Conduit Power,” which becomes active when the player is exposed to rain or water. Depending on how you construct the conduit, it will have a block count of 32 to 96. When activated, it will also deal damage to any hostile creatures that come within 8 blocks of it (Only in Bedrock). You can breathe underwater, have night vision, and have Haste when Conduit Power is turned on.
You must first acquire two essential items, a Nautilus Shell and a Heart of the Sea, in order to craft a conduit. Below is a comprehensive guide for obtaining these two items.

How to Obtain a Nautilus Shell
There are three methods you can use to get the Nautilus Shell. All of them do take a little bit of time, and some of them may seem more enjoyable to you than others depending on your playing style.
Killing Drowned
The Nautilus Shell is only carried by the Drowned mob. In Java, they have a 3% chance of dropping the shell, and in Bedrock, they have an 8% chance of dropping
Finding a Nautilus Shell while fishing is still possible even though it’s somewhat uncommon. Additionally, if you enchant your fishing rod with the Luck Of The Sea charm, you’ll have a better chance of reeling one in. advertisement.
Wandering Trader
The Wandering Trader spawns randomly near the player. He’s also fairly obvious because you’ll always notice that the trader has two lamas that it has leads. It’s crucial to keep in mind that even though the vendor might offer Nautilus Shell, they might not always be available. When the trader sells, they can only do so in batches of five.
I have obtained the Nautilus Shell
Check it off now that you have the Nautilus Shell and search for the Heart of the Sea.
How to Obtain the Heart Of The Sea
The only way to locate The Heart of the Sea, an item that cannot be crafted, is through a treasure map. A treasure map may be discovered in an ocean ruin or shipwreck. The quickest way to locate one of these is to feed a dolphin either raw cod or raw salmon, and they will guide you to either location.

You’ll see a large red X on the treasure map once you’ve located it. Start digging in the direction of the X to find the treasure. There%E2%80%99s a 100% chance of finding the Heart Of The Sea buried treasure in both Bedrock and Java
I have obtained the Heart Of The Sea
Check off finding the Heart of the Sea, then search for an ocean monument.
What is an Ocean Monument
A building called an Ocean Monument is found in water biomes. Even so, it’s important to note that you could find the same materials by discovering an underwater ruin. However, an Ocean Monument will have more of the required materials.
Materials neededadvertisement
You will require a Sea Lantern, Dark Prismarine, Prismarine Brick, and Prismarine for the conduit. You can safely combine the components to create the conduit and, if you really want to, have fun with it.
I’ve collected all the materials required to craft a Conduit.
Check it off the list once you’ve located the necessary materials and get to work building it.
How to Make a Conduit
While only 16 blocks are required to create the conduit, 32 blocks are required to use it to its full potential. To activate it, the building’s structure itself must be constructed in a 5x5x5 grid. To activate the conduit, it must be floating in the middle of the structure. You can construct the building on the surface if you’d like, but it must be in a 3x3x3 body of water.
When it is active, the conduit will open up and start to suck in materials, letting you know. Additionally, the top right corner of the screen displays the Conduit power symbol.

FAQ
How do you power up conduit?
In Minecraft, a conduit must be constructed in a 3x3x3 body of water. Once constructed, it grants you “Conduit Power,” which becomes active when the player is exposed to rain or water. Depending on how you construct the conduit, it will have a block count of 32 to 96.
What blocks do you need to activate a conduit?
By putting Heart of the Sea in the center of the crafting grid and seven Nautilus shells all around it, conduits can be created. The simplest activation frame for a conduit only requires 16 Prismarine blocks to build, but with a full frame of 42 range, its range increases by three times.
Why is my conduit not activating?
A player must first make sure that a 3x3x3 volume of water is surrounding the conduit before they can activate it. This water may consist of waterlogged blocks, source blocks, or flowing water. For the block to operate at its full potential, this and the activation frame are necessary.
