New End - Minecraft 1.9 Update
This page could be updated because there's some features announced for Minecraft 1.9 f.e. "Chorus" fruit, End Gateway, Ressurecting from dead Ender Dragon, PC is more like consoles and New endless End with dungeons and Shulkers –Preceding unsigned comment was added by EmeraldPlay (talk • contribs) at 23:18, 07 July 2015 (UTC).

 * Although it could be updated indeed, we'll have to wait for a snapshot to be released which contains these features in order for them to be added. We might not have to wait long though. BDJP (t 00:26, 8 July 2015 (UTC)

Repetious Info
Information in the Overview section and the "End-affected materials" section contains near-duplicate information. To make the page cleaner, at least on these info has to go. But which one? -EatingSilencerforBreakfast (talk) 15:16, 21 August 2015 (UTC)

Naturally created section
Are the end portal, bedrock, and the dragon egg really naturally created? The dragon doesn't have any way to die naturally in the end. The dragon does not:
 * drown because it automatically destroys water
 * suffocate--I know because the dragon loses its target when damaged, and it doesn't lose you as a target when flying through the island.
 * take fall damage because it flies
 * take blast damage because there are no explosions in the End unless an ender crystal is destroyed, and ender crystals do not get destroyed by the dragon
 * take lightning damage because there is no weather in the End
 * take fire damage because it is immune to fire, besides there's no fire in the End
 * take cactus damage because it destroys cacti and there aren't any in the End anyway
 * take lava damage because it is immune to fire, besides there's no lava in the End
 * take attack damage because Endermen, the only other mob in the End are not naturally hostile to it
 * take void damage because it always targets an area around 0,0 and well above the void when there is no player

Therefore there is absolutely no way for the dragon to naturally die. Thus, should not the End portal, bedrock, and dragon egg be removed from the list of naturally created blocks? AwesomeMan31415926 (profile|contribs) 22:59, 24 August 2015 (UTC)


 * While a player is needed to kill the dragon, the blocks making up the portal are placed automatically, without any player interaction, so it qualifies as 'naturally created'. -- Orthotopetalk 23:53, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
 * The player can defeat the Ender Dragon indirectly using snow golems and/or withers, which can (though are unlikely to do so) enter the end portal without assistance. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Blobs2 (talk • contribs) at 2:29, 25 August 2015 (UTC). Please sign your posts with


 * Unfortunately, the ender dragon only takes damage from players (not including splash potions) and explosions, so snow golems will do no damage and the wither hardly does any at all. - Sonicwave ( talk &#124; c )  20:16, 25 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Withers and snowgolems do not exist without the player building them, and all naturally spawned mobs are not hostile to the Ender Dragon unless accidentally attacked (and sometimes, like with pigs, not even then). Also, the end portal block (the black block that fills in the end portal structure) is still not created until the dragon dies. And even though yes in the newer snapshots bedrock (and the egg? IDK about that one) is there before the dragon's death, it's naturally *generated*, not *created*. AwesomeMan31415926 (profile|contribs) 09:53, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Brewing Stand
The wiki says that the brewing stand cannot be obtained no matter what, this is wrong! Jerryzhu2004 (talk) 12:54, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Oh, it means that the brewing stand block cannot be obtained, which is true. It doesn't mean that the brewing stand item cannot be obtained. – Sealbudsman talk/contr 19:09, 23 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Thanks, that helped me a lot! Jerryzhu2004 (talk) 06:04, 24 April 2016 (UTC)

"Third and final"
Should "The End is the third and final dimension" be changed to just "The End is a dimension"? I think it should, since the player doesn't necessarily have to go to the Nether to get to the End:


 * The player could join a server that has the End portal open already
 * The world's spawn could have been set to the End (if that's possible)
 * The player could be given eyes of Ender (or its crafting materials) to use on the portal
 * The player could be in creative mode and could just give themselves eyes of Ender

―HalfOfAKebab (talk, contribs) 17:17, 30 April 2017 (UTC)


 * "Third and final" has its reasons... I think "third" refers to the End's data value being marked 1 (compared with Overworld 0 and Nether -1); also it's the latest dimension to be implemented into the game. "Final" refers to the fact that End is indeed the final dimension a player can and should go, according to the common play style and the advancements tree. As for should the wording be changed or not, I've no idea ：/    ——JackAlpha26 (talk) 18:03, 30 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Then should the Nether's article be changed to match this, calling it the second dimension? Or would it be 0th, since it's internally recognised as dimension -1? :P

 * It seems just like a matter of finding something to fill in as a valid description. Just calling it "dimension" doesn't give a briefing; some numerical stuff can at least give some more implications and create a good-looking sentence. And on the other side the Nether already has "hell-like" as an adjective. Maybe someone else can check out your question and give better answers ——JackAlpha26 (talk) 18:18, 30 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Yeah, that's true. If we say, maybe, "The End is a dark, empty dimension, accessed via the End portal found in a stronghold", it would work?

Console edition
It seems that the end does not function the same way in the console edition. The Main island is contained within a cube of radius 96. The cube is not made of barrier blocks, and can be replaced with any block, even in survival mode. End gateways always warp straight south, regardless of their position, into another cube of raidius 96 that always has an end city in it. So it's more like a collection of pocket dimensions than a single one. Legitimateted2401 (talk) 23:25, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
 * You say the cube is not made of barrier blocks, but "can be replaced with any block". Are you saying there's an invisible block there? If so, What block is the cube made of? –  Sealbudsman talk/contr 01:12, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * , do you know anything about this? – Sealbudsman talk/contr 03:46, 9 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Also what consoles is this on? – Sealbudsman talk/contr

Rewording needed
In the this section of the article, it reads "When the player enters the exit portal, the "end poem" and the credits will roll shortly afterwards, thus "completing" Minecraft and earning the player the The End achievement.".

The part in bold should be reworded to accommodate for all versions of Minecraft, for example in the Java edition this is an advancement, not an achievement. -172.31.33.176 23:33, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
 * You can do it yourself :P. Seems like an easy edit. ―HalfOfAKebab (talk, contribs) 03:15, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

Teleporting to The End?
Is it possible to access The End via the /tp command? 24.97.224.214 22:33, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

End Stone generates as part of the biome, not the dimension
Proved as when a Buffet world is created with any end biome, End Stone still natrually generates. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 4hrue2kd83f (talk • contribs) at 15:52, 18 October 2018 (UTC). Please sign your posts with
 * Is it worded differently on this page? – Nixinova Grid_Book_and_Quill.png Grid_Diamond_Pickaxe.png 03:28, 18 October 2018 (UTC)
 * It isn't worded differently, I'm talking about the subject, not the article (and this wiki got rid of Trivia). 4hrue2kd83f (talk) 04:04, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

I'm inclined to say this is false as stone still generates in Buffet worlds where end stone would generate in the real end. - User-12316399 (talk) 11:51, 18 February 2020 (UTC)

Farming Crops in the End
It appears to me that wheat seeds cannot be planted in the End even if there is water and farmland. In contrast, saplings can be planted. Is farming crops generically not allowed in the End? I can't seem to find mention of this feature anywhere. 172.56.12.106 23:54, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
 * No, see . TheLOLxd2 (talk) 00:17, 7 August 2019 (UTC)

Page split proposal
In response to the split proposal on the page (to "The End (biome)"), I'd prefer a title like "The End/biomes" since there are multiple biomes in the End, unlike Nether (biome). – Sonicwave talk  03:39, 23 February 2020 (UTC)
 * I think there's been a miscommunication here; among the multiple biomes in The End, there exists a specific biome called "The End," which is the 1000 block circle that the main island generates in. The page would be split off into a page on the dimension and a page for that specific biome.
 * I think the reason it's like this is partially for convenience of generation (so they can customize that island in particular) and partially a legacy thing (historically, The End was just the main island, generated in its own biome, with no other islands to visit).

Bedrock Edition ID
The Bedrock Edition uses ID 1 for the Nether. So what ID is the end? 68.112.184.194 07:12, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
