Milk and area effects
I'm a Bedrock Edition player. Regarding your recent change to Milk, I am curious what actually happens in Java Edition when you drink milk while in the affected area of a beacon or conduit. You say the benefits of the effect disappear; for example, you would start drowning if underwater near a conduit? What happens if you leave the area and return? Is the canceling effect of milk permanent?

I can see that milk would remove Hero of the Village, as that's an effect granted by a single event. However, conduits and beacons grant their effects continously in an affected volume of space around them, so I am skeptical that milk would remove the effect for more than a couple of game ticks. More information is needed in that Milk article, I think. Amatulic (talk) 05:31, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * "conduits and beacons grant their effects continously"
 * To be more specific: beacons and conduits grant their effects every few seconds. Beacons grant 9–17 seconds of the effect every four seconds and I think conduits grant 12 seconds of conduit power every two seconds. Drinking the milk removes the effect but the beacon/conduit will give the effect back whenever it normally gives its effect (e.g., finishing a milk bucket half a second after a beacon grants an effect to the player means the player will not have the effect for three-and-a-half seconds). It's like drinking milk while standing next to a dispenser that dispenses a splash potion onto you every few seconds. SLScool 15:41, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
 * I see. It's kind of like Mining Fatigue inflicted by elder guardians then. I believe in Java Edition each elder guardian in range hits you at one minute intervals. In Bedrock Edition, the interval is much quicker - you get hit again by Mining Fatigue almost instantly after drinking milk; you get at most 1-2 seconds reprieve.
 * It's also possible that milk removes the effects of conduits and beacons just as briefly in Bedrock Edition. I'll have to check that when I get home from work, and I'll revise the milk article accordingly. I wouldn't be surprised if Bedrock and Java worked the same with respect to milk, with the only difference being the interval before the effect is restored. Amatulic (talk) 17:11, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
