Elytra (pronunciation: [ˈɛl ɪ trə] el-i-trə)[1] are items that allow the player to glide.
Obtaining
Elytra are found in end cities. One pair of elytra is found within an item frame in each End ship.

Usage
Flight
Elytra are equipped in the chestplate slot.
To initiate flying, the player must fall from a height of at least four blocks. From there, direction is controlled by looking left or right, and the flying speed and rate of descent is controlled by looking up or down. The player can also "spin" while going down and very quickly shifting the mouse to the left or right. Looking upwards while gliding temporarily increases the player's altitude, however doing this for too long stalls the player, causing it to descend at a faster rate (indicated by the player moving their limbs).
Elytra allow the player to travel a maximum of about 10 blocks horizontally for each block fallen when flying at a constant 0.0° pitch, not including the initial fall, resulting in a glide angle of about 5.7°. Higher distances can be achieved by regularly pitching up and going back to 0.0° pitch.
The player will not take fall damage while the elytra are equipped unless hitting the ground at an excessive rate of descent, which can be caused by nose-diving or stalling. Fall damage will then be a result of the height fallen during the nose-dive or stall.
Durability decreases by one point each second when flying. Elytra have 431 durability, resulting in 7 minutes and 10 seconds of flight. It is possible to apply the Unbreaking enchantment using an anvil and an enchanted book.
Repair
When durability reaches 1, elytra will no longer work until they are repaired, and cannot lose more durability. These “broken” elytra have a different, tattered item texture, though they do not appear differently on the player. They may be repaired either by crafting two together or in an anvil, using leather: each piece of leather will repair the elytra by 108 durability, therefore requiring 4 leather to fully repair.

A '''heart of the sea''' is a rare [[item]] that can be crafted into a [[conduit]].
== Obtaining ==
The heart of the sea must be found. It cannot be crafted or obtained by trading, making it a [[non-renewable resource]].
A heart of the sea is obtained from a [[buried treasure]]. The location is marked with a noticeable red X on a [[Explorer Map|buried treasure map]], which is found in [[Ocean_Ruins|ocean ruins]] and [[Shipwreck|shipwrecks]]. Feeding [[raw cod]] or [[raw salmon]] to a [[dolphin]] causes the dolphin to swim toward the nearest [[buried treasure]], [[shipwreck]], or [[ocean ruins]].

== Trivia ==
* Before the heart of the sea was added to {{el|be}}, there was an entry found in the buried treasure chest loot table named <code>nautilus_core</code>, which was later revealed to be the heart of the sea. Despite the name change, the heart of the sea continues to be referred to as the <code>nautilus_core</code> in most game files.
