Collect the necessary materials
Before going into the details of the procedure on how to make a dragon in Minecraft, I think it may interest you to know more about what materials you need to do this operation. These indications are valid for the Survival mode since in the Creative mode you already have all the appropriate objects in the inventory.
Well, to find the Enderdrago, all you need is the End portal. To build the latter, you need 12 End Portal Frame units. My advice, in this case, is to proceed in Creative mode, since it is not possible to manually build the End portal in Survival mode. In fact, in the latter the portal is located inside the underground fortress.
Once you’ve found (or built) the End Portal, you’ll need the Eye of Ender item to activate it. To create the latter, you need to combine 1 unit of Ender’s Pearl and 1 unit of Blaze’s Dust. The first is obtained by defeating an Enderman, finding it inside the trunks scattered around the game world or by exchanging emeralds with the vendors of the villages.
The Blaze Powder is created, however, by Blaze Verga, which is obtained by defeating Blaze Nether. For more details on how to reach this place, I invite you to take a look at my guide on how to make the portal to the Nether.
Once you have defeated the Enderdrago for the first time, you will need 4 End Crystal units to summon it. The latter is created by joining 7 glass blocks with 1 unit of Ender’s Eye and 1 unit of ghast tear. Obviously, the tear is obtained by defeating the ghasts that are within the game world.
If you want to create a dragon statue instead, the items you need are the following: quartz blocks, armor stands, leather pants, oak slabs, cauldrons, Redstone blocks, pistons, anvils, a dragon head, hoppers, wooden hatches, stone walls, spruce fences, and a wither skeleton skull. The latter is probably the most difficult element to obtain: you can find it by defeating the wither skeletons found around the Nether Fortresses.
For the rest, if you really can’t find all the materials, I invite you to use the Mine search website, which allows you to get detailed instructions on the materials needed to make the various elements.
All you have to do to use the site in question is to type the name of the object you need in the search bar at the top and select the most relevant result. Finally, you just have to write down the combination to create the object that appears on the screen and reproduce it within Minecraft.
How to summon a dragon in Minecraft
You’ve probably heard of the Enderdrago before, but I still refresh your memory: it is the mighty creature that defends the gates of the area called End. It is considered by many to be the final boss of Minecraft, although in reality some think it is not there. a real end to the game.
To fight the Enderdrago, you just have to go through the portal of the End and you will find it there, ready to defend its “homeland”. Generally speaking, all you need to do is find the End Portal in an underground Fortress and use the Eye of Ender to activate it. For all the details of the case, I invite you to consult my tutorial on how to find the End portal.
In Creative mode, on the other hand, it is sufficient to take 12 units of the End Portal Frame from the inventory and create a “closed” structure by arranging 3 units on each side. The frames must be positioned while keeping the character inside the structure, otherwise, the portal will not work.
Then, take the Eye of Ender item from your inventory and place it on top of each End Portal Frame, in order to activate the “teleportation”. For more information, I suggest you consult my tutorial on how to build the End portal.
Once you enter the portal, you will finally find yourself inside the End. Here you simply have to break a few blocks to exit to the top and the Enderdrago will be waiting for you right away. You just have to defeat him. A tip: try to destroy the crystals above the columns before attacking the dragon.
In case you have already defeated the Enddragon, you can summon it again by using 4 End Crystal units and placing them on the pillar with torches on the islet where you fought the Enddragon earlier.
In any case, if you have the Java version of Minecraft, you can also train against the Enderdrago by summoning it through the appropriate commands. After making sure that the Commands option is set to Yes for your game (I remind you that in Creative mode they are enabled by default), press the T button on your keyboard, type the string / summon ender_dragon and press Enter.
Perfect, now the Enderdrago will appear next to your character and you can fight him. In short, the methods to summon a dragon on Minecraft without using mods are not lacking. For more information, I invite you to take a look at my guide on how to spawn the Ender Dragon.
How to make a dragon statue in Minecraft
If you want to make a dragon statue instead, you can do it by following the instructions below.
The first thing you need to do is make a closed structure made up of red sandstone steps, placing 2 on each side.
Then place 4 quartz blocks vertically in the center of the structure.
Now, break the 2 middle blocks and place an armor stand.
After that, place another armor stand on top of the top block.
At this point, place a workbench on the ground. Then insert 1 unit of pants and 1 unit of ink pouch. Next, drag the black pants icon to your inventory.
Then place the black leather pants on both armor stands.
Now, break all the quartz blocks, in order to “join” the 2 armor stands.
After that, use support blocks to place a dark oak slab on top of the armor stands.
Remember to break the support blocks later. Next, place a cauldron and 2 Redstone blocks on top of the dark oak slab you placed earlier.
Once this is done, break the central Redstone block and place a piston that “looks” down.
Your goal is to “push” the cauldron down, so you just have to place Redstone blocks under and to the side of the piston to be able to complete this operation.
At this point, place an armor stand on top of the structure.
Then create support blocks and drop an anvil from above, so that the anvil fits into the armor support.
Then remember to break the support blocks.
Now, place a dragon head at the top of the armor stand.
Next, place hoppers on either side of the dragon’s head. Then place some stone walls in the lower part and wooden hatches in the upper part. You may need to use support blocks to do this.
Once this is done, place another stone wall on the left side of the statue and make a sort of “stick” made of a spruce fence.
Finally, place a wither skeleton skull at the top of the stick.
Perfect, now your dragon statue is ready. Seen? It wasn’t that hard!
Mod for dragons in Minecraft
How do you say? Do you love dragons and would like to include a lot of them in Minecraft? Do you also have the dream of taming them? No problem, the gamer community has created a mod, called Dragon Mounts 2, with precisely this intent.
You must know that this mod only works in the Java edition of the Mojang title. In particular, I invite you to use version 1.12.2 of the game, as it is the one where Dragon Mounts 2 seems to work best.
To download the mod, you simply need to connect to the Curseforge website and press the Download button, which is located next to the wording relating to the version of Minecraft in your possession.
A file called DragonMounts2- [version] .jar will then be downloaded . What you need to do is move / copy it to the Minecraft mods folder. On Windows, the path to follow is C: \ Users \ [username] \ AppData \ Roaming \ .minecraft \ mods, while on macOS it is ~ / Library / Application Support / minecraft / mods.
I also advise you to configure the Forge profile, in order to be sure of the correct functioning of the mod. To do this, go to the official Forge website and press the Installer item. If you are looking for Forge for a “dated” version of Minecraft (such as 1.12.2), you must press the Show all Version button.
When the download is complete, start the forge- [version] – installer.jar file obtained, select the Install Client item and click OK. Great, you’ve finished setting up the Forge profile.
Now, all you have to do to start using the mod is to select the Forge profile using the down arrow icon on the left, next to the PLAY button, on the main screen of the Minecraft Launcher.
How to hatch a dragon egg in Minecraft
Once in the game, possibly in Creative mode, the Dragon Mounts 2 mod will allow you to hatch dragon eggs.
To proceed, simply press the E button on your keyboard, take one of the many Spawn Dragons, move it to your inventory and use it, by right-clicking. In this way, the egg will hatch and you will see the dragon of your choice appear in front of your character.
In short, hatching dragon eggs through the Dragon Mounts 2 mod is particularly simple.
How to tame a dragon in Minecraft
Dragon Mounts 2 also introduces the ability to tame dragons, which are also rideable.
To do this, you just have to press the T button on the keyboard, type the command/dragon tame and press Enter.
After that, press Left Shift + Right Click on the dragon and place a saddle in the upper left part of the inventory. For more details on this object, I invite you to consult my guide on how to make the saddle in Minecraft.
Perfect, now all you have to do is right-click on the dragon to get on the saddle.
You can make it move through the directional arrows, while to fly you have to press the space bar. I remind you that to get off you just need to press the left Shift key.
In short, you just have to enjoy the dragons in Minecraft.
