Beta 1.16.230.52 is the second beta version for Bedrock Edition 1.17.0,[a] released on March 31, 2021,[2] which adds axolotl and deepslate variants behind experiments toggle, and fixes bugs.
Additions[]
Blocks[]
- Currently only generated in blobs below y=16.
- Has a hardness value greater than that of stone but can be mined with any pickaxe.
- Drops cobbled deepslate when mined.
- Can be obtained only with a Silk Touch pickaxe.
- There are 19 variants in total.
- Drops from deepslate when mined with a pickaxe without Silk Touch.
- Can't be used interchangeably with cobblestone and blackstone in crafting recipes of basic tools, furnaces and brewing stands.[3]
- Can be crafted into respective stairs, slabs and walls, Polished Deepslate, Chiseled Deepslate, Deepslate Bricks and Deepslate Tiles, which can be used to craft their respective stairs, slabs, and walls (excluding Chiseled Deepslate).
- Deepslate Bricks and Deepslate Tiles can also be smelted onto their cracked variants.
- Can now be smelted back into deepslate.
- Added deepslate variants of all ores, including iron, gold, copper, coal, diamond, redstone, emerald, and lapis lazuli.
- Takes twice as long to mine as normal ores.
- Has the texture of deepslate replacing the normal stone texture.
- Takes place of ores that generate in deepslate.
- Can be used in blasting and smelting recipes like normal ores.
- Can now be waxed.
Mobs[]
- Axolotls will spawn underground, in water.
- Holding a bucket of tropical fish will cause nearby axolotls to follow the player on both land and water.
- Axolotls cannot be tamed but they can be bred by feeding them buckets of tropical fish.
- Axolotls will attack fish, squid, drowned, and guardians.
- Axolotls come in a variety of colors, all with an equal chance of spawning except for blue.
- Blue axolotls have a small chance of spawning as a mutation when breeding 2 axolotls.
- Axolotls can survive on dry land for a few minutes. After that they will start to dry out and take continuous damage until rehydrated.
- When taking damage, there is a chance that the axolotl will play dead. While playing dead, the axolotl will regenerate health and mobs will be unable to target the axolotl.
- When a player kills a mob that the axolotl was attacking, they are rewarded with the regeneration effect, and their mining fatigue is removed if they have it.
- Axolotls can be picked up with buckets, like fish.
Changes[]
World generation[]
- Deepslate is generated in blobs below y = 16.
- Ore is generated as normal, when the ore is generated where Deepslate has been generated, deepslate ore is generated instead.
