Talk:Beacon

Bah, Humbug.
Gaah... we've got mobs walking through walls and players walking into unloaded chunks, and they spend time on this l33t-player frippery? --Mental Mouse 23:29, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, it looks like they've got a bugfix release coming before the one with this thing, so now I feel better about that. I'm sure it'll play well in Adventure mode, but it's still pretty crazed for Survival players. --Mental Mouse 20:53, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

"Aura Block" would be a better name
Shouldn't we name this "Aura Block" ? It's true we can see it from far but it's not really it's main function. Algent 01:57, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Beacon redstone
since the glass does not stop the power of the beacon block, we can use pistons and glass to make redstone systems, with hidden pyramids.

Is there a way to force light beam to render

Effects
I suppose the regen and speed effects are just like potion effects, just not temporary. However, what does "Haste" do? There's not a potion that has that effect.
 * For sure there is a potion named that, see Potion effects. --80.134.13.237 09:39, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
