Ender Pearl

The Ender Pearl is a new item in the 1.8 update and is sometimes dropped by Endermen upon death. Currently this item has no use. These pearls can be commonly found in bodies of water "naturally" as Endermen will occasionally walk into water and die there from water damage.

Use
The Ender Pearl has no coded use, which means it can do nothing at this moment.

Common Misconceptions
The Ender Pearl does not yet do anything, however many rumours and misconceptions currently surround its intended function and use. In particular, the Ender Pearl does not:


 * Keep mobs from becoming aggressive.
 * Allow the player to punch mobs from a distance (a feature exclusive to Creative Mode).
 * Halve the distance in which Endermen will turn aggressive towards the wielder.
 * Prevent Endermen from attacking the player upon use (right click) for any amount of time.
 * Give you more hearts.
 * Cause mobs to become friendly.
 * Cause Endermen to spawn near the Pearls.
