What is the End
In Minecraft, there are some parallel dimensions to the world in which the player begins his first adventure. Among these, there is the End, which represents a challenge with a considerable difficulty to face.
In fact, when you cross the portal that connects the two realities with your avatar, which I will talk about in the next chapter, you will be catapulted onto a small island suspended in the void, with a huge dragon protecting the End.
You will therefore have to defeat the latter, in order to open a passage to access the ring of distant islands from the one you are in, to start a new adventure that will lead you to discover the City of the End.
This place could tempt you a lot, as it is full of treasures, including the Elitre, a set of wings that allows you to fly gliding. By using firework rockets while gliding, it is possible to regain altitude, so the Elitre is a great way to fly in Minecraft.
How to build the End portal
Now that you are aware of what awaits you as you reach the End, it is time to talk to you about how to build a portal to enter this reality. Unfortunately, I must inform you that the End portal can only be built in Creative mode.
In case you have started your adventure in Minecraft in Survival mode, you will only be able to use the portals that you find hidden in specific places, but I will deal with this topic in a later chapter of the guide.
Alternatively, you can enable the use of the command console, in order to change the current Survival mode of the Minecraft world to the Creative one and vice versa: I will tell you about it in detail in the next chapter.
Change the mode of the world of Minecraft
As I told you in the previous chapter, if you want to build an End portal in Survival mode, you must necessarily switch to the Creative one.
To do this, first, you need to enable the command console. To do this, press the Esc key on your keyboard to access the game menu, select the items Open in LAN > Commands from the menu that opens and choose the Yes option. At this point, press the Start the world in LAN button and that’s it.
At this point, during the game, press the T key on the keyboard, to open the chat, and type the command / gamemode creative, followed by pressing the Enter key, so as to change the current mode of the Minecraft world in Creative.
At this point, you can continue reading my guide, in which I will indicate the resources necessary to start the construction of the End portal. Once you have completed the project, you can return to Survival mode using the / gamemode survival command.
Gather the necessary materials
To start the construction of the End portal, you have to use 12 units of the End Portal Frame. These are available in the avatar inventory in Creative mode, which you can easily find by typing the term frame in the Search tab.
In addition, you will need other essential materials for activating the portal: the Eyes of Ender. You will need 12 units, which you can always find in the avatar’s inventory in Creative mode.
Alternatively, if you want to venture out in search of this resource, you’ll need to find the Pearls of Ender and the Powders of Blaze. The Ender Pearl is obtained by defeating an Enderman, but you can also find it as a treasure inside the chests found in the Forest Mansion or Underground Fortresses, or by exchanging it for emeralds from the Healing NPCs you find in the villages.
To get, instead, the Blaze Dust, you will have to defeat the Blaze, creatures found in the Nether. By doing so, you will get the Blaze Rod convertible to powder in a workbench.
After you have collected all the materials, place them on a workbench to get the Eyes of Ender.
Create the portal for the End
Now that you have all the materials I pointed out to you in the previous chapter, it’s time to start building an End portal. First, clear an area of land of the size 5 × 5 . After that, man in a quick slot 12 units of the End Portal Frame.
Arrived at this point, put your avatar in the center of the building area and place the first of these blocks on one of the four sides: you sell 3 units of the the End portal frame on all sides, taking care to leave the empty corner.
Also, I suggested that you place the avatar in the center of the area as the blocks will have to face towards the center, an essential requirement for the portal to activate. Then place the blocks one by one by rotating the camera until the frame is complete.
Very well: if you have reached this point, all that remains is to switch to the activation of the portal to cross it and reach the End, which I will tell you about in the next chapter.
Open the End portal
Activating the End portal is a procedure that only takes a few moments. In fact, if you have with you 12 units of Ender’s Eye, you have to equip them in a quick slot inventory and, with these in hand, act on the blocks of the End Portal Frame.
If you have done what I have indicated to the letter, you will have successfully activated the portal, which will show you a dark colored area inside the frame. You simply have to jump inside your avatar to go through it. Easy, right?
How to find an End portal
If you do not want to build an End portal, but want to try your hand at its research, I warn you that this operation will require a lot of patience, as this is hidden inside the underground Fortresses.
These places, in addition to being dangerous, are difficult to find, because they are scattered throughout the world of Minecraft, underground. However, there are methods to be able to find them, which consist of using the Eye of Ender or the command console. But let’s go in order.
The Eye of Ender is an object connected to the End, as the Endermen come from this very dimension. When you throw one into the air, it will change its trajectory in the direction of the nearest underground Fortress.
Through the repeated launch of this object or using a coordinate system, through third-party tools, it is possible to locate exactly the position of this place.
Alternatively, typing / locate Stronghold in the command console will get the exact coordinates of the nearest underground Fortress. At that point, you can teleport directly to the found location or walk to it.
If you want to know more about how to locate an underground fortress, I suggest you read my guide on how to find the portal of the End.
