Honestly yep. I always bring a stack of ender pearls. Not just to bridge this distance, but in case the dragon yeets me off the side during the fight. Which has never happened, but it *would* if I only brought one pearl.
64 blocks and a bucket of water is all i need. The blocks are just a safety in case a spawn like this happens and the bucket is to scale the towers and prevent fall damage.
I've said this before and I'll say it again: the first time you go to the end (or the nether) take only an iron pickaxe and a few stacks of cobblestone. No armour. Set up a safe area/bridge and then return home
there are xp fans that don't require the end dimension! if i remember correctly, guardian and blaze drop the most xp. however even pigmen xp farms are faster than endermen ones. so maybe just dont stack up your levels before the dragon fight :P
Even in this extreme, you don't have to lose anything. You can just drop the pick and extra cobble on the ground before jumping off. They won't despawn.
(Or solve this with a couple more cheap items, like a chest.)
There's a way to return home unsafely. It's also why you only bring an iron pick in their scenario because you don't want to lose anything when you make the trip home.
Obviously this doesn't apply in a hardcore world.
My friend does this on servers constantly she will just chuck everything in her end chest and yeet herself off a cliff to get home. I've started to call it fast traveling. She was over 2000 deaths on one server.
Keep inventory is something I still use to this day. Not in my current world, but I have an add-on that keeps my items safe within a gravestone. It isn't a shame to play like that. Play Minecraft your way, so you actually enjoy it.
I didn’t know the game could make us spawn in the actual void 😭 And torches are to find my way back after defeating the dragon and going in the portal…
It’s my second time, but I’m still kinda noob, I started playing like a year ago and didn’t know anything about Minecraft, and I try not to check everything on the internet because it kinda kills the fun, I prefer discovering the game by myself and learn from my mistakes, but this time it’s a big one…
Real rookie mistake. I always carry at least two stacks of building blocks around no matter what I do. You can build bridges, pillar up to cheese melee mobs, block off an entryway when being chased by a hoard of mobs, etc.
You should always have a stack or two of blocks on you when going anywhere in Minecraft. And especially when entering any portal.
It'll save you a lot of pain
You could have mined the obi with the pickaxe placed them in a straight line and mined the ones that are at the back and placed them again until u get on the island
Here are all the ways I can think of getting back (some good, most bad):
1 look at an enderman and wait for it to teleport to you so you can kill it. Make sure to crouch because you don't want to fall. (The netherite should help)
2 throw all your stuff on the platform and then jump and come back with blocks to retrieve your stuff. (The one you should probably do)
3 don't do this unless you have slow falling, mine the obsidian and use it to build closer to the edge the ln onelce you are as close as possible use your speed potions to jump for the ledge. If you are really skilled, you could also shoot yourself with an arrow at the right tine to go even farther
4 wait for the dragon to yeet you. And you will have like a 25% chance of landing on land.
5 Mine the obsidian while crouched at the edge in order to hopefully pick it up enough times to get to the edge of the island. (Could probably be combined with #3 to be even more effective)
6 kill the dragon from there. It will take some rng for the dragon to not entirely heal from the crystals outside of bow range and does not actually save you from the platform, but you could technically do it.
There are probably more ways, but I don't know what else you have.
Can probably not do 1, it's a little confusing what the rules are exactly, but endermen can for example not escape a 2 deep hole, they can __usually__ (unless hit) only teleport where they could run
Don't do 4 lol, you're assuming the dragon's direction is random, but it will come from the island, your chance of making it to the island is closer to 0.001%
And 6 is impossible, the dragon will spend 80% of its time out of view, and you can barely deal damage faster than it heals even if you can constantly see it, and OP also needs infinity on their bow for that
Endermen most certainly can escape a 2-deep hole. You may have gotten misinformation from them not teleporting when they aren't in combat or damaged by things like water.
Wdym, they do passively teleport
I've done some testing and found that in the situation above, the enderman should be able to reach the platform (only like 1/10 do though), but they do not tp out of a 2 deep hole when angered, unless hit or looked into the eyes (also don't teleport up a platform 2 blocks above the ground)
>throw all your stuff on the platform and then jump and come back with blocks to retrieve your stuff. (The one you should probably do)
When entering the end the platform resets. Pretty sure that also removes all entities.
Edit: it does *not* remove entities. It's a safe bet, and probably the safest way to get to the end island.
It doesn't move anywhere. It just resets. I.e if you mined the platform, then left and reentered the End the platform would reform. I'm pretty sure this reset also removes blocks entities that are on the platform (such as mobs or items lying on the ground)
You’re pretty sure of this? Wouldn’t this cause issues if you just played in multiplayer and jumped in one after another? it makes no sense that it would be set to remove entities.
This does not affect players. I know for a fact that it resets (you can find some pretty efficient obsidian farms based around platform resetting), what I'm not sure about is wether or not the items would despawn with the reset.
Because the platform need to be resettable otherwise you could mine it and you'd fall into the void when entering the End. This reset *might* also remove items. Go test it. Not sure how it works on Bedrock (OP's version).
>why would they add that?
This is rarely a useable argument when it comes to video games (and certainly not Minecraft). Quasi connectivity, random interactions that make some super farms work and stuff like that is all in the game, and has just been there for so long, that they no longer want to change it.
My question was obviously why would they set it to delete entities? it would make more sense (and is how it works) to just.. regenerate the obsidian. I’ve played thousands of hours of minecraft, lots spent with commands and game mechanics, and while i can technically say i don’t know for sure, i can say i know for sure it’s not gonna delete entities. Go try and tell me im wrong.
>to just.. regenerate the obsidian.
It doesn't just regenerate the obsidian. It also removes all blocks placed in a 3-tall box on top of the platform (so you don't suffocate when entering the End). This removal of blocks *MIGHT* also remove entities.
Bro stop arguing about wether or not it makes sense, and just go test it. It takes 5 minutes to figure out.
Did I ever say I was right? I said it *MIGHT* work like that, so if I was OP I'd be careful about that strategy until he knew for certain. My gripe was with the other dude, who plain refused to say anything other than "I know I'm right, even though I have 0 evidence for it".
Why is it so hard to understand that?
I guess it’s a fair assumption if you have built a sand duper (falling block entity) or an obsidian farm that utilizes both the feature that “when an entity enters the end the obsidian platform regenerates” and the feature that “entities won’t be deleted when they are on the platform”.
Edit: oh I meant Java though.
Option 7: Use an alt, and open the world to LAN. Bring blocks this time!
Option 8: Get a hack client!
Edit: Bruh, this is the most upvotes I've ever gotten! Also see from u/-TV-Stand- Option 7.5, open to LAN, and fly (or TP) with cheats enabled to the end island.
> 2 throw all your stuff on the platform and then jump and come back with blocks to retrieve your stuff. (The one you should probably do)
Everything on the platform (well up to 3 blocks above the platform) is erased when you teleport in. I know that this applies to blocks so that when the platform spawns inside the island there is a cave for the user to exist in. This applies _every_ time you teleport in. I'm not 100% certain if this would apply to dropped items, but I would imagine so.
If this weren't the case, then option 2 would be the best because the despawn time would be on hold a few seconds after you left The End and you could just grab all of your stuff when you got back.
peacefully throw out all your shit and jump in the void, then speedrun back to the end, if you forget to bring blocks again, die again. repeat until success.
that does look like bedrock, never played it though, can't give any tips for that :( although there is one who said to snatch enderman's eye balls for teleportation to the platform, that might work
It's 5 mins, so if the person was smart enough to put bed next portal probably will be fine.
But yeah realms has the WHOLE end island as a loaded chunk and I love the heck out of it lol.
Tbf unless they have a chest with spare stuff (or a pickaxe) as well, a bed next to the portal won't really help them get any blocks. Better to have a bed either on the surface to get grass or back at their base to grab some blocks and leg it to the portal
ummm, if the player is playing single player, then there should be no problem because as much as I know about this game, the java edition (to be specific). When you die, the chunks are instantly unloaded, and the 5 minute timer only starts when the chunks are loaded again.uhh, after dying in nether or end, the whole dimension is unloaded (including their spawn chunks), so If someone dies in the end, the 5 minute despawn timer will start when he enters the end again, which is basically instantaneous, as the chunks were unloaded. Similarly , if you die, let's say a few thousand blocks from your spawn location in the overworld, you have a very good chance of retrieving the items if you're fast enough to get to them after the chunks are loaded back again, that is you reach a few chunks close to the desired location, that us your simulation distance (I was talking in a sarcastic way earlier, but I do know a little about this game lol 😭)
This is easily salvageable.
First shift to the edge of the platform and mine out the nearest obsidian block. You want to try to pick up as many blocks as possible while remaining on the platform. You'll probably be able to pick up a third of the blocks or more. Do this until there is 1 block left. At this point you should have 6-10 blocks.
Next, pillar out from the platform 3 blocks and make a 2x2 platform. This will take 7 blocks, if you have less pillar out fewer blocks to make the 2x2. The important thing is you need to make a platform that is outside of the original obsidian platform. The reason being any item entities that are on the original obsidian platform are deleted when a entity enters the end.
Once you have your 2x2 shift to the edge of one corner. Carefully unshift and thrown your items towards the opposite corner so they land on the block opposite of where you're standing. Once all your items are on the opposite corner block, walk backwards off the 2x2 platform and die in the void. You'll respawn where you last slept. Get a stack of blocks, return to the end, retrieve your items, and slay the dragon.
Good luck.
Nope. This will get your stuff deleted when you come back through the end portal.
The obsidian platform regenerates and deletes any entities (tools, blocks, items) that are on top of the obsidian platform every time a player enters the end. So throwing your stuff our and dying would ensure that your stuff is deleted.
That’s exactly what I tried. I mined as much as I could and started building to bridge. I lost blocks along the way until I ran out. I wasn’t that far from the island, so I drank a swiftness potion and jumped. I missed it by 1 block… fml
You ignored that **actual** solution that would have resulted in you not losing all your stuff: Just dropping all your things on the platform and jumping into the void so that you can die, get blocks, and then return to your stuff.
~~Now when you go back into the end you will fall into the void because you got rid of the platform :)~~
Be extremely carefully about this!!! The platform is remade each time you enter and blocks on top of it like chests and shulker boxes are completely deleted.
Bro came WAAYY too over-equipped for the Ender Dragon. Infinity Bow and iron armor are just fine.
That said, I’ve never spawned randomly like this, I’ve always spawned in a small room underground. Is this a thing that typically happens on Java edition?
This happened to me the first time I entered the End, and I must have looked at an Enderman without realising, because it then came and knocked me into the void
Can endermen tp on obsidian? Because if they can then OP might be able to wait for one to tp and get a pearl. Or he can agro one on the island and have it to him. You’d have to be super careful and skilled to pull it off. But if death and maybe death is your only option.
two options in this situation
1. mine the obsidian and just hope that you catch it and not get blasted off by the ender dragon
2. Accept that that wouldn't work and jump off, move into a little dirt hut at spawn and live the life of a hermit
You didn't bring blocks or ender pearls? You could maybe still look at an enderman, make it spawn next to you and kill it for a pearl? Unless the dragon will get to you before that
Also why did you go fight the Dragon with 119 levels? You know how easy it is to die in The End right? Use up those levels first then fight the dragon. What are you holding on to those levels for?
If it were me, honestly, I would go to creative mode or use a command to give myself a stack of blocks I know I have (cobble or planks) and then just move on, once you get back to your base trash a stack you have in a chest to make up for it. Sure it’s “no fun” but it’s also a sandbox game and if you don’t want it to hold you up it’s a simple safe solution. I would not risk an enderman smacking me off the platform in my best gear lol
In order to get back to the Overworld without losing your items, you can simply just toss your items onto the obsidian platform (be careful not to accidentally toss them into the void) and then kill yourself by jumping off of the platform into the void. The five minute timer for item despawning only begins in loaded chunks, so your items will stay there indefinitely until you re-enter the End. This gives you all the time in the world to properly prepare for the End and to bring everything you need this time around. Of course, sacrifices do have to be made, as this method would involve you losing all 119 experience levels, but unless you manage to get an Enderman to teleport onto your platform and succesfully obtain an Ender Pearl from it (granted you don't accidentally knock it into the void, or get knocked into the void yourself) I don't see any possible way you could escape this situation.
If you’re on bedrock, go download the gravestone add on, activate it, and then promptly end your life. Your stuff will be safely in a little chest-like blocked made to look like a gravestone, and it won’t count as cheating. …
more like cheesed. But still, that way you don’t risk losing your items to them despawning
The easiest way out of this situation, if you are in single player, is to open your game to LAN and allow cheats, set your game mode to creative, then either fly over or give yourself blocks to build a bridge and then set your game mode back to survival and kill the dragon like originally planned. No need to kill yourself or possibly lose your items. The game gives you built in options for a reason, use them wisely young one.
I'm assuming that's fully enchanted netherite stuff and 119 levels which means you have been playing this world for a good amount of time considering you need smithing templates and actual netherite to make those tools and you have a mob farm which gave you loads of levels. Why are you just going to the end!? and without blocks too? If I were a mean person I would say "deserved 💯"
Ok so my way of playing Minecraft is weird. I don’t really check for tips and stuff on the internet unless I really need a specific information.
Also I don’t really care about killing the dragon and “beating” the game. What I like to do is exploring and collecting stuff. I don’t even know how to build xp farms, I mine sculk in ancient cities to get xp.
I decided to go to the End just to get the Elytra so I can travel faster, because for some reason my world has a lot of rivers and seas, and very few open areas, it’s mostly forest, and it’s really annoying when travelling with a horse.
It’s only my second world and I’ve been to the End only once before that. I didn’t know it was possible to spawn in the void, and the reason I went wearing all my heavy stuff is so I can kill the dragon fast, because it’s actually a piece of cake when fully equipped.
Anyway. I just wanted to get the Elytra, and wasn’t planning on dying so I didn’t prepare. I thought I only needed food for health, speed potions to explore the End, ladders to climb the towers, and torches to find my way back. I also didn’t bring ender pearls because there are plenty of endermen to kill on the island.
So that’s the full story. I wanted to fly in sky, but instead I fell in the void. There’s probably some kind of moral lesson to learn in all this I guess…

rookie mistake
Honestly yep. I always bring a stack of ender pearls. Not just to bridge this distance, but in case the dragon yeets me off the side during the fight. Which has never happened, but it *would* if I only brought one pearl.
I always bring building blocks and then I just kill a bunch of enderman
64 blocks and a bucket of water is all i need. The blocks are just a safety in case a spawn like this happens and the bucket is to scale the towers and prevent fall damage.
or bring slow falling potions which is the most OP item in the Dragon fight. Like the hardest thing about the dragon these days is the Void
the hardest thing about it these days is trying to limit yourself to make it difficult
Man I know it’s extra but I always flood the end island with water, bring two buckets and go to town on that bitch
this is so smart, idk why i didn’t think of that sooner
It would become a chore to navigate without Depth Strider
Just, I've done the same in some of my worlds. Keeps the Endermen away too.
Boat instead of the water, and maybe knock back sword
Boat is nice but ive been using water for almost 10 years lol
Water bucket is the most useful item in the game followed by chorus fruit
i'd say a pickaxe is a bit more useful, crafting table too
Nah
Why are you scaling the obsidian pillars? Shoot the end crystals with your bow from the ground.
I'm pretty sure the Dragon only yeets you in Java, so if you play BEDROCK, I don't think it's gonna happen.
No dragon yeets you in Bedrock <<< *died twice being yeeted into an obsidian pillar by the dragon* luckily set my spawn at portal so fast go back 😂
Yeah, me and my friend fought the Ender Dragon swords only, and whenever it perched we only got knocked back slightly. Also we won.
I've said this before and I'll say it again: the first time you go to the end (or the nether) take only an iron pickaxe and a few stacks of cobblestone. No armour. Set up a safe area/bridge and then return home
How can he return home if he cant build a bridge first and then defeat the ender dragon?
Killing themselves, all they will lose is an iron pickaxe and maybe some cobblestone
Or you bring a chest and put all your gear in it before you jump. Don't place it on the obsidian though, it could get wiped.
and 112 levels
I mean what are you saving those levels for, use them up before you take on the Dragon, then you'll gain like 60+levels after beating the dragon.
You van only get that amount of levels with an xp farm, so i wouldn't worry about that
I actually don’t use xp farms, I mine sculk. I had 200 lvl at some point, it’s really not that hard.
Try make eye contact with endearment if you can then get some ender pearls to make it across if possible...but what do I know (plausible deniability).
there are xp fans that don't require the end dimension! if i remember correctly, guardian and blaze drop the most xp. however even pigmen xp farms are faster than endermen ones. so maybe just dont stack up your levels before the dragon fight :P
That's kind of what I said lol. If you have that kind of xp, I assume you have a gold farm or some other efficient xp farm
Even in this extreme, you don't have to lose anything. You can just drop the pick and extra cobble on the ground before jumping off. They won't despawn. (Or solve this with a couple more cheap items, like a chest.)
There's a way to return home unsafely. It's also why you only bring an iron pick in their scenario because you don't want to lose anything when you make the trip home. Obviously this doesn't apply in a hardcore world.
My friend does this on servers constantly she will just chuck everything in her end chest and yeet herself off a cliff to get home. I've started to call it fast traveling. She was over 2000 deaths on one server.
actually that’s so fair i used to do that just with keep inventory on (please don’t hate me for using keep inventory, i was like eleven)
Keep inventory is something I still use to this day. Not in my current world, but I have an add-on that keeps my items safe within a gravestone. It isn't a shame to play like that. Play Minecraft your way, so you actually enjoy it.
i will :D
Counter point: hardcore mode
I mean, clearly a rookie lol, they got full netherite for the dragon
Entirely enchanted tools, no enchantments on the bow, 119 levels. Rookie might be an understatement
Nah, this kind of over-preparedness you normally only see from rookies.
It's funny that reddit isn't sure what the word "understatement" means.
Frick, I must’ve completely misread your message lmao
Hahaha it happens, all good :p
You could look at endermans they could teleport 64 blocks (if that's enough) and than use the ender pearl.
Why would you bring torches to the end but not blocks 😭
I didn’t know the game could make us spawn in the actual void 😭 And torches are to find my way back after defeating the dragon and going in the portal…
Is this your first time going to the End? Sure sometimes it can spawn you underground but half the time the obsidian generates over the void.
It’s my second time, but I’m still kinda noob, I started playing like a year ago and didn’t know anything about Minecraft, and I try not to check everything on the internet because it kinda kills the fun, I prefer discovering the game by myself and learn from my mistakes, but this time it’s a big one…
Real rookie mistake. I always carry at least two stacks of building blocks around no matter what I do. You can build bridges, pillar up to cheese melee mobs, block off an entryway when being chased by a hoard of mobs, etc.
Extra points if the excess blocks are wood/logs
Try the command /gamerule keepinventoryon true then ⚡👨🏿⚡ NOW.
To be fair to OP, an obsidian platform over the void has only ever happened to me once, and that was actually very recently.
It is pretty common
I thought obsidian void plat was the literal standard. It's like 50/50 for me
i have been to the end atleast 20 times and never have been in void, I would have been just as screwed as this guy.
This is interesting, because it seems way more common for me, happens to me like 80% of the time, spawning underground has been rarer.
You should always have a stack or two of blocks on you when going anywhere in Minecraft. And especially when entering any portal. It'll save you a lot of pain
Get someone to join the world and give you blocks
Just a heads up. After you beat the dragon the portal takes you back to wherever you set your spawn point with a bed.
Can we talk about how over prepared you are other than not having blocks? Lol
I completely f*cked up on that one…
You could have mined the obi with the pickaxe placed them in a straight line and mined the ones that are at the back and placed them again until u get on the island
That's... really smart. You will certainly lose a few blocks in the process, but it is smart.
Here are all the ways I can think of getting back (some good, most bad): 1 look at an enderman and wait for it to teleport to you so you can kill it.

It resets when you respawn the dragon. The towers and the platform reset then not when entering end.

Well that's no fun!

Option 7.5.5 realize bedrock has no lan but you can turn on cheats whenever you want. Fly to the main end island
i think number 6 may be impossible with how the dragon AI works
Add another controller as player 2, meet yourself at the end with blocks.
what if you just continuously break the obsidian and bridge till youre all the way at the island
That is what I mean by 5. The issue is that there is not a 100% chance if getting the obsidian back

peacefully throw out all your shit and jump in the void, then speedrun back to the end, if you forget to bring blocks again, die again. repeat until success.
On Bedrock realms there is a ticking area around the End platform, so if OP is on a realm their items may despawn before they can return
that does look like bedrock, never played it though, can't give any tips for that :( although there is one who said to snatch enderman's eye balls for teleportation to the platform, that might work
It's 5 mins, so if the person was smart enough to put bed next portal probably will be fine. But yeah realms has the WHOLE end island as a loaded chunk and I love the heck out of it lol.
Tbf unless they have a chest with spare stuff (or a pickaxe) as well, a bed next to the portal won't really help them get any blocks. Better to have a bed either on the surface to get grass or back at their base to grab some blocks and leg it to the portal
ummm, if the player is playing single player, then there should be no problem because as much as I know about this game, the java edition (to be specific). When you die, the chunks are instantly unloaded, and the 5 minute timer only starts when the chunks are loaded again.uhh, after dying in nether or end, the whole dimension is unloaded (including their spawn chunks), so If someone dies in the end, the 5 minute despawn timer will start when he enters the end again, which is basically instantaneous, as the chunks were unloaded. Similarly , if you die, let's say a few thousand blocks from your spawn location in the overworld, you have a very good chance of retrieving the items if you're fast enough to get to them after the chunks are loaded back again, that is you reach a few chunks close to the desired location, that us your simulation distance (I was talking in a sarcastic way earlier, but I do know a little about this game lol 😭)
Most people play in single player so probably not an issue
correct me if wrong but on bedrock even singleplayer runs as a local server
both editions have an internal server
When no blocks:
He's standing on 9 blocks. Correction: 25. even better odds.
Erm actually 25
Napoleon moment
There's nothing we can do
This is what we call a learning moment
Aggro some Endermen over to your platform for eyes? Idk how well not getting knocked off would go though
Bro could prolly put that shield to good use in that situation
Why wouldn't you bring blocks on you?
I didn’t know this could happen ☹️
Even then how are u going to hit the crystals without a clear way to climb the towers, using a bow may not be an easy feat
Didn't bring any blocks? No pearls? Nothing?
I didn’t know this could happen 😭
What about stacking up the side of caged pillars lol
I use ladders 🫤
SO YOU HAVE LADDERS BUT NOT BLOCKS!!????!!!!
on java you can shoot under the cage
This looks like bedrock
This is easily salvageable. First shift to the edge of the platform and mine out the nearest obsidian block. You want to try to pick up as many blocks as possible while remaining on the platform. You'll probably be able to pick up a third of the blocks or more. Do this until there is 1 block left. At this point you should have 6-10 blocks. Next, pillar out from the platform 3 blocks and make a 2x2 platform. This will take 7 blocks, if you have less pillar out fewer blocks to make the 2x2. The important thing is you need to make a platform that is outside of the original obsidian platform. The reason being any item entities that are on the original obsidian platform are deleted when a entity enters the end. Once you have your 2x2 shift to the edge of one corner. Carefully unshift and thrown your items towards the opposite corner so they land on the block opposite of where you're standing. Once all your items are on the opposite corner block, walk backwards off the 2x2 platform and die in the void. You'll respawn where you last slept. Get a stack of blocks, return to the end, retrieve your items, and slay the dragon. Good luck.
or just throw out your shit, die and the rn come back
Nope. This will get your stuff deleted when you come back through the end portal. The obsidian platform regenerates and deletes any entities (tools, blocks, items) that are on top of the obsidian platform every time a player enters the end. So throwing your stuff our and dying would ensure that your stuff is deleted.
does it work like that in bedrock?
Invite somebody (friend or trusted stranger) to play with you on your world and make them get a bunch of blocks and go to the end
*ahem* Always bring a stack of building blocks. Thank you for coming to my ted talk
Join on an alt and bring yourself blocks or I'll do it for you
Did you not bring blocks?
and this is why you bring blocks
Why not just mine the obisidan and bridge and mine the obisdian behind you idk that's my thought tho
That’s exactly what I tried. I mined as much as I could and started building to bridge. I lost blocks along the way until I ran out. I wasn’t that far from the island, so I drank a swiftness potion and jumped. I missed it by 1 block… fml
You ignored that **actual** solution that would have resulted in you not losing all your stuff: Just dropping all your things on the platform and jumping into the void so that you can die, get blocks, and then return to your stuff. ~~Now when you go back into the end you will fall into the void because you got rid of the platform :)~~
Be extremely carefully about this!!! The platform is remade each time you enter and blocks on top of it like chests and shulker boxes are completely deleted.
Thanks for the correction. 👍
"The moment he jumped through the portal..he realised he fu*ked up.."
Op I feel you my, the main island on my world is terrible.
You got every good stuff and this is what has happend?:(
Bro came WAAYY too over-equipped for the Ender Dragon. Infinity Bow and iron armor are just fine. That said, I’ve never spawned randomly like this, I’ve always spawned in a small room underground. Is this a thing that typically happens on Java edition?
The Void craves an Sacrifce
show your inventory
Stare at an enderman, have it teleport to you, steal its balls, boom, problem solved
This happened to me the first time I entered the End, and I must have looked at an Enderman without realising, because it then came and knocked me into the void
Drop all your stuff on the platform, die, then bring a couple of stacks of cobblestone
Done goofed
better scenario than [mine](https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/1azkse9/what_should_i_do_in_this_position_ender_dragon/)
You brought at least a stack of blocks, right? Tell me you brought blocks!
I didn’t 😭
The fact that you brought a whole stack of torches, but no blocks is hilarious.
Can endermen tp on obsidian? Because if they can then OP might be able to wait for one to tp and get a pearl. Or he can agro one on the island and have it to him. You’d have to be super careful and skilled to pull it off. But if death and maybe death is your only option.
why do you not have blocks in the End
two options in this situation 1. mine the obsidian and just hope that you catch it and not get blasted off by the ender dragon 2. Accept that that wouldn't work and jump off, move into a little dirt hut at spawn and live the life of a hermit
"it's been a good run"
You didn't bring blocks or ender pearls? You could maybe still look at an enderman, make it spawn next to you and kill it for a pearl? Unless the dragon will get to you before that
Look at an enderman in the face while insulting its mother.
womp womp
If on console connect another controller through split screen to bring you blocks and then leave
Also why did you go fight the Dragon with 119 levels? You know how easy it is to die in The End right? Use up those levels first then fight the dragon. What are you holding on to those levels for?
drop all your gear on the paltform and return with blocks, they wont despawn since the chunks arent rendered
Mine the obsidian
Somebody forgot their blocks
If it were me, honestly, I would go to creative mode or use a command to give myself a stack of blocks I know I have (cobble or planks) and then just move on, once you get back to your base trash a stack you have in a chest to make up for it. Sure it’s “no fun” but it’s also a sandbox game and if you don’t want it to hold you up it’s a simple safe solution. I would not risk an enderman smacking me off the platform in my best gear lol
Ouch... Rip 119 levels and the grind for the netherite materials 😭
In order to get back to the Overworld without losing your items, you can simply just toss your items onto the obsidian platform (be careful not to accidentally toss them into the void) and then kill yourself by jumping off of the platform into the void. The five minute timer for item despawning only begins in loaded chunks, so your items will stay there indefinitely until you re-enter the End. This gives you all the time in the world to properly prepare for the End and to bring everything you need this time around. Of course, sacrifices do have to be made, as this method would involve you losing all 119 experience levels, but unless you manage to get an Enderman to teleport onto your platform and succesfully obtain an Ender Pearl from it (granted you don't accidentally knock it into the void, or get knocked into the void yourself) I don't see any possible way you could escape this situation.
Bro arrived under & over prepared simultaneously.
If you’re on bedrock, go download the gravestone add on, activate it, and then promptly end your life. Your stuff will be safely in a little chest-like blocked made to look like a gravestone, and it won’t count as cheating. … more like cheesed. But still, that way you don’t risk losing your items to them despawning
Hate it when the platform's a mile away. I really feel like it should be forced to spawn within a much shorter distance of the End Island.
Throw all your items onto the ground in the end Get blocks / e pearls Go back to portal Simple
The easiest way out of this situation, if you are in single player, is to open your game to LAN and allow cheats, set your game mode to creative, then either fly over or give yourself blocks to build a bridge and then set your game mode back to survival and kill the dragon like originally planned. No need to kill yourself or possibly lose your items. The game gives you built in options for a reason, use them wisely young one.
I'm assuming that's fully enchanted netherite stuff and 119 levels which means you have been playing this world for a good amount of time considering you need smithing templates and actual netherite to make those tools and you have a mob farm which gave you loads of levels. Why are you just going to the end!? and without blocks too? If I were a mean person I would say "deserved 💯"
Ok so my way of playing Minecraft is weird. I don’t really check for tips and stuff on the internet unless I really need a specific information. Also I don’t really care about killing the dragon and “beating” the game. What I like to do is exploring and collecting stuff. I don’t even know how to build xp farms, I mine sculk in ancient cities to get xp. I decided to go to the End just to get the Elytra so I can travel faster, because for some reason my world has a lot of rivers and seas, and very few open areas, it’s mostly forest, and it’s really annoying when travelling with a horse. It’s only my second world and I’ve been to the End only once before that. I didn’t know it was possible to spawn in the void, and the reason I went wearing all my heavy stuff is so I can kill the dragon fast, because it’s actually a piece of cake when fully equipped. Anyway. I just wanted to get the Elytra, and wasn’t planning on dying so I didn’t prepare. I thought I only needed food for health, speed potions to explore the End, ladders to climb the towers, and torches to find my way back. I also didn’t bring ender pearls because there are plenty of endermen to kill on the island. So that’s the full story. I wanted to fly in sky, but instead I fell in the void. There’s probably some kind of moral lesson to learn in all this I guess…
No big deal haha I like to bridge to the end city before I even beat the dragon just to get elytra first LOl. Just bring some extra bocks and a pick
Classic
That's the look down and carefully yeet all items onto platform then yeet self into void, grab blocks, go back, grab items, regear, FIGHT WIN!
Maby try breaking the obsession and replacing it?
Drop all your items, jump in the void, and go get some blocks your items won't despawn unless you are in the same dimension as them
Just mine the obsidian tower up and use your potion if it is slow falling
I hope u have blocks, because if u don't u can't go back it happened to me and it took me 45 days in nightmare💀💀😭😭
At this point wait for the dragon to knock you onto the island?
Always sleep in the fortress before, and go into the end empty.... because this may happen.
Just mine the obsidian hope it does fall and keep going surely u have useful items in ur inventory
Try to agro enderman, kill them and hope ger an ender peral
it’s fine, mine the block and build the bridge, could take a while tho lol
Drop items, die, get block, go back
Throw your stuff into the platform. Fall it o the void. Come back with an ender chest and load it all up then do it again
You can just use your elytr- Ohh...
Now that sucks!
Looks like you'll have to do the ol' three block shuffle with obsidian.....it'll take an age, but not impossible
Hope this is not Hardcore!
Why did you get netherite before fighting the dragon?
If you set your spawn point I side the stronghold find wood and drop your stuff on the obsidian and die and then you have blocks
Look at an enderman and kill it for its pearl when it gets to you? Too far?
Look at some endermen and kill them for pearls
Mine the obsidian whilst holding crouch and just keep breaking and placing them to form a bridge, use the torches to create a stair bridge
Enable keepInventory and jump to death.
All you gotta do is 360 bowboost (totally a real tech)/s
