In today’s article, I am going to show you how to make an end portal in Minecraft. As an avid player myself, I can attest to the excitement and sense of accomplishment that comes from successfully creating and using an end portal. So, let’s dive deep into the details and get started!
What is an End Portal?
An end portal is a structure found in Minecraft that allows players to access the End dimension. The End dimension is home to the Ender Dragon, a formidable boss creature that players can defeat to complete the game. To reach the End, you need to build an end portal.
Gathering the Required Materials
Before we can construct an end portal, we need to gather the necessary materials. Here’s a list of what you’ll need:
- 12 Eyes of Ender
- 12 End Portal Frames
- Diamond Pickaxe
To obtain Eyes of Ender, you’ll need to combine Blaze Powder and Ender Pearls in a crafting table. You can acquire Blaze Powder by defeating Blazes in Nether Fortresses, and Ender Pearls by trading with Endermen or killing Endermen in the Overworld.
Constructing the End Portal
Now that we have all the materials, it’s time to start constructing the end portal:
- Choose a suitable location for your end portal. It should be on a flat surface and have enough space for the 12 end portal frames.
- Place the 12 end portal frames in a ring shape, surrounding the center block where the portal will be created. Each frame should face inward.
- Right-click on each end portal frame using the Eyes of Ender. Make sure to place one Eye of Ender in each frame.
- Once all the Eyes of Ender are placed, the portal will activate, and you’ll be able to jump into the End dimension.
Using the End Portal
Now that you have successfully constructed the end portal, it’s time to enter the End dimension and face the Ender Dragon. Jump into the portal, and you’ll find yourself in a desolate and eerie landscape. Be prepared for a tough battle with the Ender Dragon, as it has several stages and can be quite challenging. Remember to come equipped with good armor, weapons, and plenty of healing items.
Conclusion
Building an end portal in Minecraft is a significant milestone for any player. It marks the beginning of an epic adventure in the End dimension, where you’ll face the mighty Ender Dragon. So, gather your materials, construct the portal, and prepare for an exhilarating battle. Good luck, and may your Minecraft journey be filled with excitement and achievement!
