How to get it, dismantle it, and create a new dragon<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Defeating a dragon in the End and getting the rarest object in the Minecraft world – the dragon\u2019s egg – is considered the supreme discipline of the game. How to achieve this and what tips and tricks you can use for it, you can learn here! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Where & How to find the Ender Dragon Egg<\/strong>
Where: The dragon egg is only available once <\/strong>in the end: after the first victory over the ender dragon<\/strong>! It appears on the exit portal<\/strong> (end fountain).<\/p>\n\n\n\n


How: Collect <\/strong>it with the help of a piston and redstone.<\/strong> <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You will meet the Ender Dragon in the End of Minecraft. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How to get a dragon egg<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First of all, you have to enter the End<\/a>. Once there, the goal is to defeat the ender dragon<\/strong>. This can be accomplished more easily by destroying the end crystals on the obsidian<\/a> pillars (since those heal the dragon). After the dragon is defeated, the dragon egg appears on top of the exit portal<\/strong>. It appears only once<\/strong> and that is after the first successful fight<\/strong> against the ender dragon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The death of the dragon releases the portal again, which allows you to return to the upper world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"end
Equip the end portal with eyes of ender<\/a> to get into the End and fight the ender dragon.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Collecting the Dragon Egg<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The egg is very special. Not only because it is unique, but also because it is gravity-dependent<\/strong> and also egg-shaped. So it’s no wonder that the mining of this item is a bit different than with a normal Minecraft block. Simply mining is not possible. You have to move the egg from its position on the pillar. That way it drops<\/strong> as an item. For this there are several methods, the most common are with the help of the piston<\/a> or the mining of the blocks under the egg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"egg

Whichever method you choose, you should definitely take some blocks into the end<\/strong> to build yourself up to the level of the egg, and also place some blocks under the egg<\/strong> to prevent it from falling into the portal. We will briefly introduce you to the two methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mining with piston<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

First of all, don\u2019t tap on the egg to induce its teleporting ability. Once it is teleported away from the portal, you might lose track of it. For collecting the egg, you should first cover up the end portal with other blocks to prevent the egg from falling through it. Now you need a piston<\/a> and redstone<\/a>. The piston is placed on a block next to the egg and activated by a redstone block behind it. The piston knocks the egg over and it simply “drops” down and can be picked up like any other item.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mining using block dismantling and torches<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Again, don\u2019t tap the egg to make it teleport away from its position. By dismantling blocks directly under the egg, you can also drop the egg as an item. Therefore, place blocks directly under it if it didn\u2019t spawn on blocks. Two blocks under the egg you should place a torch. If you mine the blocks under it, the egg will drop onto the torch and can be picked up as an item. However, this only works if you’ve already picked it up and placed somewhere else, since you can’t destroy the bedrock below the egg on the portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After dismantling the egg<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

To create another ender dragon<\/strong>, you will need 4 end crystals<\/strong>. These are placed in the center of the end portal frame. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ender crystal = 7 glass + 1 ender eye + 1 ghast tear <\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Via rays, the crystals produce a renewed flare of the ender crystals on the obsidian columns and finally with it the dragon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, the mined egg can be taken back to the overworld and displayed as an object in e.g. the apartment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to hatch the dragon egg?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Attention!<\/strong><\/strong> It is impossible to \u2018hatch\u2019 the ender dragon in vanilla Minecraft! There is no baby version of it. Though you can respawn it once, you can\u2019t hatch or breed it without additional mods.
<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n\n

You dream of your own winged friend and want to hatch the dragon egg? Unfortunately, this is not possible without<\/strong> mods<\/a>. While you can display it as a testament to your victory, it has no practical use. Still, if you don\u2019t want to give up on your dream, the modding community can help you: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hatch dragon egg with the Dragon Mounts mod<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

With the mod \u201cDragon Mounts<\/strong>\u201d by Barracuda<\/strong> you can hatch <\/strong>dragon eggs and then raise the dragons<\/strong> and even ride <\/strong>them. After your little dragon hatches, you can feed it fish, and later build a saddle that lets you glide through the air on one of eight different dragons<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Train Your Dragon with the Ice and Fire mod <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The \u201cIce and Fire<\/strong>\u201d mod by Alexthe666<\/strong> and Raptorfarian<\/strong> adds numerous dragon types<\/strong> to the game, including ice dragons, fire dragons, lightning dragons and giant sea serpents. Female dragons drop dragon eggs upon death, which can hatch and also provide you with a tame winged friend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Getting the dragon egg therefore requires a certain amount of preparation (as does defeating the ender dragon in general) and is not the easiest game mission. However: It is worth it to capture such a rare object and can also be seen as a kind of \u201ccompletion\u201d of the game! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
