The End

Eye of Ender
To get to The End players need to find an End Portal. To do this:


 * Find a Nether fortress in The Nether.
 * Kill blazes, lots of them, for blaze rods.
 * Craft blaze rods into blaze powder. 1 rod gives you two blaze powder.
 * Also need ender pearls, lots of them. Easiest place to find them in common numbers is the Warped (blue) forest in The Nether.
 * Combine blaze powder and ender pearls to make eye of ender.

Find the End Portal
Now you are actually at the point where you can find the End Portal:

Do this as close to spawn as you feel safe. 1,000 - 5,000 blocks from 0, 0.

You may get lucky and find an End Portal which is already complete. Otherwise you may need up to 10 or more eye of ender to activate the portal.


 * In the overworld throw eye of ender into the air and follow the path it leads you in.
 * Each throw as a chance of breaking the eye of ender.
 * So, make as many as you can.
 * Mine down when the eye of ender falls directly down and find the stronghold.
 * The End Portal is within the Stronghold.
 * Look out for chests with loot.

Main Island
The main island in The End has been lava casted quite extensively up to build height, with the lava casts flowing off the island as low as blocks can be placed.



Waterlogged
As of Oct/Nov 2020 the main End island has been waterlogged. The obsidian towers are now underwater.

End Gateways
The 20 end gateways have been generated and there is a ring road of sorts connecting them up together.



The Exit Portal Break
In August 2020 it was discovered the exit portal could not respawn the Ender Dragon. The portal was in the wrong location on the Y axis on the map. Details on the fix here.



Nvenner's TNT Dupe End Trap
A very active player in his time (has returned), Nvenner AFK'ed his account a lot auto-mining Obsidian out of The End pillars. This was during the time the server was running on Minecraft 1.14 and a TNT dupe existed. Nvenner created a TNT powered redstone circuit, which continally triggered a TNT duping mechanism. The duped TNT would instantly be lit and dropped causing an explosion. The TNT was duped at just the right height to explode just above the spawn platform.

For safety during auto-mining he would activate the trap, created out of an obsidian shaft above the spawning platform in the end. If players teleported into The End while the device was active, the player would be instantaneously blown up by the TNT. In testing it was found tThe trap was so powerful, it not only instantly killed the player but also destroyed any items the player was carrying.

Since Nvenner's return he has recreated his Lava and TNT Portal Traps. Anyone wishing to succeed at getting past these traps should read Lava and TNT Portal Traps.



In the photo you can see the TNT trap in action. There are continual TNT blasts directly on the spawning platform, contained in the Obsidian tower / shaft. For a player spawning in there is no escape and instant death.



Another view of the TNT trap in action, you see this is pre-lava casting in The End.

Typical Obsidian alt auto-mining inventory.



Auto-mining Obsidian Pillars
With the TNT trap now no longer functioning, player now auto-mine the Obsidian from the pillars using Auto-disconnect. If they are attacked and go below a certain level of health their client automatically disconnects them from the game. Preserving their tools, armour and collected Obsidian.

Once the pillars have been mined bare, the Ender Dragon is respawned to regenerate the pillars. Once the Ender Dragon is killed, the auto-mining process can begin anew.

Outer Islands
Numerous players have been to the outer islands to raid the end cities for Elytra and Shulker shells to craft shulker boxes.
