Beetroots are edible food items and crops in the Pocket Edition. They are also an ‌[upcoming: Lua error in Module:Version_link at line 112: attempt to concatenate local 'text' (a nil value).] feature for the computer edition.

Obtaining

Beetroots are obtained from harvesting a fully grown crop block, which drops the crop and seeds in a similar manner to wheat.

Usage

Food

Beetroots can be eaten to restore 1 (🍗) hunger and 1.2 hunger saturation on Computer Edition 1.9 and 1♥ on Pocket Edition.

Breeding mobs

Beetroots can be used to breed pigs by tapping and holding a pig with a beetroot in one's hand. Pigs also follow the player if the player is holding a beetroot.

An '''eye of ender''' is a craftable item used to locate [[stronghold]]s and activate the [[end portal]]s within them.

== Usage ==
=== Locating strongholds ===
[[File:Eye of Ender (break).gif|thumb|right|An animation of an eye of ender shattering.]]

To locate [[stronghold]]s (and the [[end portal]]s they house):
* Pressing {{control|use}} while holding an eye of ender causes it to fly approximately 12 blocks in the direction of the nearest stronghold, traveling through any blocks necessary, and leave a trail of purple particles, the same particle effect used for [[endermen]] and [[ender chests]]. 
** The eye leads to the [[chunk]] where a spiral staircase, the first room generated in the stronghold, is located.
** The center of this entrance staircase is always exactly at the chunk coordinates 4, ~, 4, although the eye of ender leads to chunk coordinates 0, ~, 0 (the northwest corner of the chunk).
* While over 12 blocks away from the northwest corner of the staircase chunk, the eye will travel upward to offer an easily-visible indication of the horizontal direction the player must travel.
* When closer than 12 blocks to the northwest corner of the staircase chunk, the eye will travel downward, to indicate the player is above a stronghold and must mine downward.
* After two or three seconds of travel, the eye floats in the air briefly, then either falls (becoming collectable again) or shatters in mid-air. The eye has a 20% chance of shattering (80% chance of surviving) per throw, therefore throwing it three times has approximately 50% overall chance to shatter the eye (0.8<sup>3</sup>=51.2%).
* The eye of ender's flying function works only in the [[Overworld]]. It does nothing in [[the Nether]], [[the End]], [[custom dimension]]s{{verify|type=current}}, or in worlds with no strongholds.

Note that the eyes may point to an incorrect location if the target chunks were generated with a different biomes map in an older version or through different generation settings.<ref>See also {{bug|MC-135996}}</ref>

=== Activating end portals ===
[[File:Active End Portal.png|thumb|right|An end portal activated with eyes of ender.]]
Once an end portal is found, the eyes of ender are required to activate it. End portals require a total of 12 eyes of ender in order to activate, though each individual frame-block has a 10% chance of containing an eye of ender when generated. Eyes can be placed in empty [[End portal frame]]s by pressing {{control|use}} on them until the entire ring of 12 is filled, thereby activating the portal. Due to the fact that there is a 10% chance of each individual end portal frame having an eye in it, there is a one out of one trillion chance of every frame having an eye in it thereby activating the portal even if the player doesn't have any eyes of ender.

{{History|||snap=Beta 1.9 Prerelease 4|Each eye can now be placed in a [[end portal frame|portal block]] or used to hone in on a [[stronghold]].

|In older worlds with chunks generated before [[Java Edition Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3|Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3]], the eyes may mislead the [[player]] to a place where there isn't a [[stronghold]] at all. This happens because the eyes lead to where a stronghold should be based on the world seed in the current version, but before Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3 strongholds generated differently based on the seed. Therefore, if the player saved the coordinates the eye traveled to in an old world and generated a new world with the same seed, the player could travel to those same coordinates and find a stronghold.}}

==Issues==
{{issue list}}

==Trivia ==
*When thrown in third-person view, the eyes of ender fly out from the player's feet instead of their hand.
*Before [[Java Edition 1.9]], eyes of ender can be purchased from cleric villagers, which means players can find a [[stronghold]] and go to [[the End]] without accessing [[the Nether]] at all.
*{{IN|bedrock}} if the player travels beyond a certain radius (roughly 740,000 blocks), eyes of ender always point to a stronghold near spawn, even though strongholds continue to generate past this limit. If one travels to this limit, they can see eyes of ender suddenly switching direction. A similar phenomenon occurs with the {{cmd|locate}} command.

'''Fire charges''' are items that can be {{control|used}} as a single-use version of a [[flint and steel]] or shot as a [[small fireball]] from a [[dispenser]].

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 1 fire charge when given a [[gold ingot]].

== Usage ==
[[File:Natural Fire Charge.png|200px|thumb|Dispensing Fire Charge]]

Fire charges can be used as ammunition for [[dispenser]]s, or as a substitute for [[flint and steel]].

When used, it instantly places a [[fire]], similar to flint and steel. The fire charge is consumed in the process. It can prime [[TNT]], light [[Nether portal|nether portals]], [[Campfire|campfires]], [[Candle|candles]], [[Cake|cakes with candles]] and [[creeper]]s{{only|JE}} like flint and steel.

When a fire charge is fired from a dispenser, it shoots a [[small fireball]].

== Usage ==
When held by a player, the recovery compass will point towards the spot where they previously died.

The recovery compass will only work when it is held by a player who has previously died and is in the same dimension as their last death. Otherwise, it will spin around randomly.

Like other items, the recovery compass itself will still drop when a player dies and the <code>keepInventory</code> [[game rule]] is not enabled.

This item is useless on Hardcore mode, as once the player dies, the player cannot respawn.

=== Enchantments ===

A recovery compass can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:

'''Elytra''' ({{Audio|ElytraPronunciation.mp3|/ˈɛl ɪ trə/|link2=''ᴇʟ-i-trə''}}<ref>“Elytron.” ''Merriam-Webster.com Dictionary'', Merriam-Webster, https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/elytron. Accessed 22 May. 2022.</ref>)<!--"Elytra" is the plural of "elytron," a single half of a beetle's protective wing covers. Verbs should agree accordingly (e.g. "Elytra allow flight"). https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/elytron--> are rare wings found in [[end ship]]s that are a source of flight in [[Survival]] mode.

== Obtaining ==
=== Natural generation ===
Elytra are found only in [[end city|end cities]] in [[item frame|item frames]] in the treasure room of the [[end ship]]. A [[shulker]] guards the elytra and the ship's two loot chests.

=== Repairing ===

Elytra can be enchanted with [[Mending]] so that they get [[Item repair|repaired]] as the player collects [[experience]] orbs while wearing/holding them.

Elytra can also be repaired in the player crafting grid, by combining two damaged pairs of elytra together. 

{{crafting

|ignoreusage=1
|Damaged Elytra
|Damaged Elytra
|Output= Elytra
|description= The durability of the two pairs is added together, plus an extra 5% durability, but removes any enchantments.
|type= Transportation
}}

Similarly, two damaged elytra pairs can be combined on a [[grindstone]].

{{Grinding

|ingredients=2x Damaged [[Elytra]]
|Damaged Elytra
|Damaged Elytra
|Elytra
|description=The durability of the two pairs is added together, plus an extra 5% durability, but removes any enchantments.
}}

Elytra can also be repaired at an anvil using [[phantom membrane]]s, which has the advantage that it preserves [[enchantments]] on elytra. Each phantom membrane restores 108 durability points, exactly 25% of the elytra's total durability.

|-
|}
Each repair on the anvil, however, also increases the [[Anvil mechanics|prior work]] penalty for the Elytra, making every subsequent repair increasingly expensive and eventually reaching an upper limit where repairs are no longer allowed because they are "too expensive" (even if the player has many xp levels to spare). However, the prior work penalty can be reset to 0 for an enchanted elytra pair when it is disenchanted on a grindstone. Unenchanted elytra cannot be used on the grindstone alone.

== Usage ==
[[File:Steve in elytra.png|75px]] [[File:Alex in elytra.png|75px]]

Elytra are equipped in the [[chestplate]] slot, either by placing the item directly in the slot, by pressing {{ctrl|use item}} while [[hotbar|held in hand]], or by firing a point-blank [[dispenser]] at a target. They are gray in color by default, but they adopt the design of any [[cape]] the player is wearing. They maintain their in-world texture design even when they're [[#Repair|broken]] or [[enchanted]].

=== Flying ===
To fly, the player must press the {{ctrl|jump}} key while falling, and the elytra spread apart like a beetle's elytra. The player can aim their view around to turn or adjust their pitch. Losing altitude increases speed, and gaining altitude decreases speed. [[Firework rocket]]s can be used to increase speed. Additionally, speed is quickly lost from sharp changes in direction.

Directly hitting any surface while gliding too fast causes damage to the player and their armor proportional to flight speed (although this may be calculated from another factor). When a player dies in this way, they receive the [[death messages|death message]] "'''<player> experienced kinetic energy'''". The player does not take [[fall damage]] from colliding at a shallow angle or a low enough speed. The critical, damaging angle is about 50° with the collision surface, and the calculation for damage seems to be as if the player had fallen from their maximum potential glide height to the height of the struck surface. 

A safe and simple cruise with the highest travel distance can be achieved by aiming directly at the horizon while at the glide's altitude limit. The player's speed is slow enough to allow them time to do other things during a long flight, like sort out their inventory.

In [[Creative]] mode or when the "mayfly" [[ability]] has been given, the player can alternatively hold the {{ctrl|jump}} key to fly up,{{only|bedrock}} or double press the jump key to move around freely. 

Flight can be stopped by pressing the [[jump]] key.{{only|bedrock}} 

==== Speed and altitude ====
Elytra have a minimum speed of about 7.2 m/s (obtained by gliding at the altitude cap with a strong upward pitch of 30°). If the diver drops to 0 speed, they quickly get accelerated back up to at least this minimum. The diver can increase speed by choosing to descend faster, but afterward, they do not regain nearly as much altitude. In the real world, drag increases with speed, and drag, in turn, slows the aircraft; Minecraft mimics this. To glide from cliff to cliff, a player's best bet is to aim slightly above the horizon.

Sharp turns are a fast way to lose speed. Quicker turns cause greater losses, while gentle movements have small effects. Making a hairpin turn can actually be used for making high-speed landings safe as well as for precise landings on small targets like rooftops. The player aims to glide just above the target, then as they're right over it they immediately reverse directions, then they make readjustments as necessary.

The lowest rate of altitude loss is about 1.5 m/sec, obtained by gliding at the altitude cap with a slight upward pitch (12° or 15°).

To get the best possible glide ratio (and thus the furthest distance out of their altitude), the diver pilot should aim directly at the horizon. This ratio is about 9.47 to 1.

[[Slow Falling]] potions greatly decrease the player's vertical (fall) speed, which also greatly decreases their ''horizontal'' speed (clearly, it depends on the vertical fall rate, as one might expect from flight modeling). The net result is that the player flies extremely slowly - but their Elytra still takes durability damage at the usual rate (1 durability per second without Unbreaking, etc.). Due to this combination, Elytra plus Slow Falling is largely a novelty that most players won't use. The [[Feather Falling]] enchantment does not affect Elytra speed and does not reduce fall damage from hitting things with elytra.

It is possible to calculate the glide range by dividing the altitude by tan of the glide angle (altitude/tan(glide angle)). For example, if the player glides from an altitude of 64 blocks above ground with a glide angle of 15 degrees, they can glide for 237 blocks (assume that they are on superflat), since floor(64 / tan(15)) is 237.

==== Stalling ====
Trying for too high a pitch reduces the player's lift. At a pitch of 30° above the horizon, the player has the lowest possible airspeed of 7.2 m/sec. Above that, the player might be considered to be in a stall. Increasing the pitch gets closer to a free-fall, and stalled flight at 60° is enough to cause fall damage. Stalling at 90° is a true free-fall.

Recovering from a stall is done by readjusting to any safe pitch as quickly as the player likes. This can be just changing to look at the horizon.

==== Powered flight ====
{{fakeImage|{{invSprite|Firework Rocket}}|Firework rockets are used for speed boosts while gliding.}}

[[Firework rocket]]s can be used for propulsion during flight by placing it in either hand and {{ctrl|using}}. Using a firework rocket while gliding quickly maximizes the player's speed for a time similar to the rocket's flight duration.

If the rocket is equipped with [[firework star]]s, it explodes at the end of its flight, inflicting damage based on the number of stars.

It is possible to gain altitude during powered flight. This makes it possible to glide for extreme distances and had been used extensively by [[far lands]]/[[World Border]] challenges.

=== Durability and Repair ===
{{fakeImage|{{invSprite|Broken Elytra}}|A broken pair of elytra.}}

[[Durability]] decreases by one point each second when gliding. A pair of elytra has 432 durability, allowing 7 minutes and 12 seconds of gliding time without enchantments, providing more than 10,000 blocks of transport distance. It is possible to apply the [[Unbreaking]] enchantment using an [[anvil]] and an [[enchanted book]], which affects the elytra, in the same way it does to [[tool]]s. Unbreaking III increases elytra's flight time to about four seconds per durability point, a total of 28 minutes and 44 seconds.

When the durability reaches 1, elytra stop working until they are repaired, adopting a tattered texture in the inventory. The damage ends at durability 1, so they can never fully break. A pair may be repaired by either using the [[Mending]] enchantment, combining two pairs in a [[grindstone]], or combining it in an anvil with [[phantom membrane]]s. In an anvil, each piece of membrane repairs elytra by 108 durability points, requiring 4 pieces to fully repair them.

Each repair on the anvil will also increase the [[Anvil mechanics|prior work]] penalty for the Elytra, making every subsequent repair increasingly expensive, with an upper limit where repairs are no longer allowed because they are "too expensive". However, the prior work penalty can be reset to 0 for an enchanted elytra pair when it is disenchanted on a grindstone (by adding nothing to it). Unenchanted elytra cannot be used on the grindstone alone.

=== Enchantments ===
Elytra can receive the following [[enchantments]] by combining in an anvil:

== Issues ==
{{issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* The singular form of elytra is an {{w|elytron}}.
* In reality, elytra are not used for flight. They are the tough forewings of beetles and earwigs that cover the wings they actually use for flight. However, like ''Minecraft'' elytra, in beetles they can be used for gliding.
* A flying player has a shorter hitbox than usual: A 0.6 block cube centered on the player's feet.
* It is possible to glide while on a [[ladder]], by pressing {{key|shift}} followed by {{key|space}}, causing the player to fall with a speed determined by the player's visual angle. This means that the player can descend fast on a ladder, but if the speed is too fast when hitting the ground, they can take fatal fall damage. Using a [[firework rocket]] can also speed up the player's descent. 
* {{IN|java}} if the player glides into deep [[water]] with elytra equipped, the animation does not stop, giving it the appearance of a [[swimming]] animation.<ref name="MC-97190">{{bug|MC-97190||While gliding into water or lava, player continues gliding|WAI}}</ref> The animation stops once the player touches the ground. Additionally, [[firework rocket]]s can be used with elytra underwater with a short boost duration.
* Elytra do not deactivate when the player flies into [[lava]].<ref name="MC-97190"/>
* Elytra can be equipped onto some [[mob]]s using [[command]]s. This has no effect unless the mob has the {{cd|FallFlying}} tag set to {{cd|1b}}. Mobs glide forward, unable to control the movement before landing, at which time they regain their AI. 
** Exceptions to this are [[squid]]s as the squid's AI causes it to attempt swimming in midair, making it fall straight down because it conflicts with the elytra mechanics.
**Because [[chicken]]s fall slowly, they can move more distance.
** [[Enderman|Endermen]], tamed [[wolf|wolves]] and tamed [[cat]]s that are not sitting cannot teleport until they hit the ground.
** Because mobs do not regain control until they hit the ground, [[vex]]es fall until they die or despawn as they cannot touch the ground. 
** Mobs capable of flying, such as [[parrot]]s or vexes can steer in air, though they cannot travel up or down. Dolphins also have this ability.
* [[4J Studios]] created an elytron-centered tutorial map for console edition when elytra were first introduced to this platform, this map is themed as "ruins of an ancient civilization of ''[[Minecraft]]'' worshipers" and showcases the new amplified terrain generation. This map can be seen behind the scenes.<ref>{{Mcnet|learning-fly|Learning To Fly}}</ref> On 28 March 2017, 4J Studios added an elytron-themed [[Mini Games]] for console edition called "Glide;" it consists of Time Attack and Score Attack mode.<ref>{{Mcnet|glide-mini-game-consoles-tomorrow|Glide Mini Game on Consoles Tomorrow|March 23, 2017}}</ref><ref>{{Mcnet|mini-game-masters-glide-console|Mini Game Masters Glide onto Console|March 28, 2017}}</ref>
* A player who jumps with both elytra and the [[Slow Falling]] effect travels slightly upward, which is a cheap but time-consuming alternative to [[fireworks]] and [[Riptide]]-enchanted [[trident]]s.
* On May 5, 2019, [[Mojang]] tweeted '[[The End]] never yields enough adequate resources, sadly,' along with a sad emoji.<ref>{{tweet|Minecraft|1125053038757068802|The End never yields enough adequate resources, sadly. 😔}}</ref> The first letter of each word spells 'T E n y e a r s' (Ten Years). Attached was a picture of [[player|Steve and Alex]] wearing both a [[chestplate]] and elytra. The next day, they tweeted, "Have you noticed something ''suspic10us'' here lately?"<ref>{{tweet|Minecraft|1125415169495064576|Have you noticed something suspic10us here lately?}}</ref>
* Mojang has considered the suggestion of combining elytra with a chestplate, but eventually decided against it, stating that elytra taking up armor is an intentional decision of game balancing.<ref>
