Conduit

A conduit is a block that gives nearby players the Conduit Power status effect when powered by placing a certain configuration of blocks.

Obtaining
Conduits can be obtained using any tool.

Conduit power
When activated, conduits give the "Conduit Power" effect to all players in contact with water or rain, within a spherical range of 32-96 blocks. This effect stops the breath meter from decreasing, gives underwater night vision and increases mining speed. Conduits can be activated in any biome and at any height or depth.

To activate, a conduit needs to be surrounded on all sides by water (source blocks, flowing water, and/or waterlogged blocks) and the conduit and water must be enclosed in an activation frame. The frame is built up of blocks in three 5×5 open squares centered on the conduit, one around each axis. Only prismarine, sea lantern and prismarine brick blocks in the frame contribute to activation. A minimum of 16 blocks are required, and produce an effect range of 32 blocks.

The effect range of the conduit is 16 blocks for every seven blocks in the frame, though the effect does not activate until the minimum of 16 blocks are included in the build. Thus, it extends to 48 at 21 blocks, 64 at 28 blocks, 80 at 35 blocks, and 96 with a complete frame of 42 blocks. A complete frame also carries the additional advantage of damaging hostile mobs within 8 blocks of the conduit by every 2 seconds, if they are in contact with water or rain.

Other blocks used as part of the frame (including prismarine stairs, slabs, double slabs and dark prismarine) have no effect on activation, and can be omitted. Any blocks outside the frame but within the 5×5×5 cube that encompasses it likewise have no effect.

Light source
Conduits emit a light level of 15, the brightest possible light level in the game. They emit the same amount of light as glowstone, sea lanterns, jack o'lanterns, redstone lamps and beacons.

Trivia

 * When it is activated, the conduit displays the heart of the sea's texture in the center of its model.
 * If it had been possible to activate a conduit with fewer than 16 blocks, its effect range would be 0 at 0-6 blocks, 16 at 7-13 blocks, and 32 already at 14-15 blocks.
 * Despite the conduit's small appearance, its hitbox takes up a full block.
 * Full frame looks like Shulker bullet.
