How To Create a Conduit

A conduit is one of the most powerful items in Minecraft. They are structures that when built give the player conduit power. This conduit power gives them unlimited breath underwater, night vision, and faster mining speed underwater. But all these benefits are only possible if you are close to a conduit.

To create a conduit, the players will need to get 8 nautilus shells, and one heart of the sea. You can find the nautilus shells from defeating the drowned that carries them or within a treasure chest that is located in the shipwrecks. While you can find the heart of the sea in a treasure chest, it is difficult to find.

To build a conduit, the players will need to place the heart of the sea on the crafting table and place the nautilus shells around it. Once you have created the conduit item, you will need to build a conduit housing by using prismarine. You will need about 57 prismarines to make enough blocks to house the conduit and activate it.
