how many iron blocks for a beacon
The beacon block is crafted from glass blocks, obsidian and a Nether Star. Place the beacon block atop a pyramid of some combination of iron, gold, diamond and emerald blocks. The pyramid can be 1â4 layers high; youâll need 9 blocks for the top layer, 25 for the second, 49 for the third and 81 for the last. The more layers you build, the larger the area of the beaconâs effects and the more effects you will have access to.
