i have a full SFS beacon in a desert. i surrounded it with grass to have it generate blight, but after some RL days i still haven't gotten any yet. i'm just unlucky or i need something else

It may be he just wants incentive to produce the stone halfslab covered landscape utopia we all wish for, with our cows in iron bar cages and the only surviving greenery produced through superior human engineering.

I dunno how efficient it is, but blight can be used to do initial deforesting of a jungle.

Give it time and a decently large amount of grass.

the reason i want it is to let it grow in a jungle biome. i have a nice jungle biome that i spawn sometimes after death and i want that destroyed. and also i want to make there a nice necromancer tower with a lab for nether portal testing "fun".

IIRC, Blight doesn't really work very well with jungle trees, because it usually just kills about 6 blocks above it, creating some weird trees with leaves only at the top.

i know how the blight works on trees. but it's still faster at removing vegetation that fire or chopping. what i don't know it's the time that a SFS beacon takes to make a blight block.

I was curious on this as well, I had a creative world open for several hours with a full tier SFS beacon in a forest biome trying to get blight to show up. Never did and I gave up.
I've yet to get a SFS beacon up in a survival world yet anyway to actually try playing with it at all.

You could just use fire :)

On the creative test I would bet FC made that a non option.

A few carefully placed hibachis and torches can make short work of large sections. It won't always take care of the tops of trees and the end result can be a little messy but it is kind of cool to run back a few dozen blocks and take in the "Apocalypse Now" type carnage once it really gets going.

It also takes care of spiders pretty well too if that's the kind of thing you're into :)
