Question

How do I get the egg in 1.9 after I've killed the dragon?

Community Answer

You can push the egg with a piston, or you can place a torch underneath the block that the egg is on, then break the block, and the egg will fall on the torch and drop down.

Question

In my no-cheat survival world, I have been exploring the stronghold for a long time now, but can't find the actual portal. What's the best way to locate it?

Community Answer

Look for silverfish as there is a silverfish spawner next to the actual portal. If you find silverfish, then you are close.

Question

Can the ender dragon defeat a wither?

Gerbillover

Community Answer

No. The wither has more health (150 hearts, or 300 HP), and has 3 heads to attack with all at once. Spawning a wither and then hiding would be a clever strategy, though it is quite hard to make the wither attack the ender dragon instead of you.

Where do I find the Ender Dragon?

PinkEnderman

In the End. It'll find you, actually. Just shoot the crystals until it finds you. You'll know when it roars.

Question

How can I remake the Ender Dragon?

Community Answer

If you are in version 1.9 or higher, you can remake the dragon when it's killed by placing four Ender Crystals (one on each side) of the bedrock portal that spawns when you kill the dragon.

Question

If you need a pumpkin helmet for Enderman to not kill you, how do you make it really strong?

Community Answer

You cannot make it stronger. You can only enchant it with commands. For Endermen not to kill you, simply don't look at their faces, and don't attack them.

Question

Can harm potions hurt the end dragon?

Community Answer

Potions won't damage bigger bosses like the ender dragon. Try using other things like swords, bows and potions to protect yourself.

Question

Can you rebirth the Ender Dragon?

JLloyd

Community Answer

Yep! By placing one End Crystal on each side of the four-sided portal that's in the middle of the room, you can prompt both the Ender Dragon and her health-regenerating crystals to respawn. Unfortunately, slaying the Ender Dragon again will only net you 500 XP, and you won't receive another dragon egg.

Question

How do I make an iron golem in Minecraft?

PeacheePinkee

Community Answer

Make a T shape out of iron blocks - two tall and then one on each side of the top. Then place a jack o' lantern or pumpkin on the top. The structure should change into an iron golem immediately.

Question

It seems impossible to make the dragon egg stay still. How can you make it stay still?

Community Answer

Don't punch it. If you punch it, it will move. If you put a torch down under it, then break the block under it, you will get it.

Question

When I write the command "/give 119", why does it say that there isn't anything with this name in v1.11?

Banana Head

Top Answerer

Once the Minecraft update 1.10 came out, Minecraft shifted the /give command from requiring item IDs (such as 119) to data tags like Minecraft:diamond_sword. Try using the command this way: /give [Your Minecraft Username] Minecraft:[the item] [amount].

How do I pillar up to the crystals without the ender dragon attacking me in Minecraft PE?

You have to dodge it. In bedrock, the new version of PE, try shooting the crystals with arrows. That way you'll keep an eye on the dragon.

Question

What do I do if my game crashes when I press escape after killing the Ender dragon in Minecraft?

David Milic

Community Answer

That depends on how much progress is lost. You may simply respawn in the overworld, or you may have to defeat the dragon again. You can look at your experience level to determine whether or not the game saved.

Question

Do beds work against the ender dragon?

Vortrexion

Top Answerer

Beds work extremely well against the ender dragon. It is possible to kill the dragon using only 4 beds, a strategy speedrunners commonly use to defeat the dragon quickly. You will need to position the bed in the correct spots, or else you will sustain massive damage when it explodes.
