How to Make Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern in Minecraft
Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern
Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern is a honeycomb-sealed lantern (wax stops copper from oxidizing further) that keeps a green body with brown spots forever.
26.1.2
Description
Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern is crafted by combining a Weathered Copper Lantern with Honeycomb, and the wax stops any further oxidation. The weathered stage is the third of four copper stages and looks green with brown spots, so Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern keeps that color permanently instead of turning teal like an Oxidized Copper Lantern.
Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern emits light level 15, the maximum in Minecraft, and the weathered stage never dims that light. Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern melts snow layers within 2 blocks and ice within 3 blocks. Builds that need a stable green-and-brown palette suit Waxed Weathered Copper Lantern, since unwaxed copper lanterns keep aging and the waxed lantern does not.
