Enderdragon spawning?

  • I'm thinking that ender dragon eggs could be used to spawn Enderdragons like chickens, and also since there is no way of spawning them they now could! Maybe they could be found in dungeons in the end [ideas!] and that they could be dropped by endermen/enderdragons.
Ummm. No to the first. Maybe to the last two.--BTH 10:49, 31 October 2011 (UTC)
Rather I expect it may not be an item but a block like a pumpkin, appearing when the dragon is defeaten as items held by players tend to get lost. When broken a new dragon spawns. This'd work with Jeb's comment to make dragons summonable, but does not explain the likely placeholder obsidian drop. --Saratje 12:54, 31 October 2011 (UTC)

Enderdragon Egg & upcoming information

This article has been set up in anticipation for the enderdragon egg as mentioned by Notch. Can those of you who frequently use twitter and reddit keep an eye on new information? --Saratje 11:52, 30 October 2011 (UTC)


There are many people in the MinecraftWiki community who keeps an eye on Notch's tweets FracqGrenade talk File:Apple2.png contributions 09:32, 30 October 2011 (UTC)

Flight Potions?

If the Enderdragon egg is possiably going to be used in potions could the egg provide flight in survival mode? The possiability of this looks good but illogical because for every flight potion you would need to get another egg and need to go to the end every time you ran out. The idea is good but the possibility is not. --Cdash 16:04, 31 October 2011 (UTC)cdash

The Mojang team usually have their additions fully planned out on paper LONG before the addition is even put in game. While players can contribute to the minor details of development via suggestions, the primary purpose of newly added content is already pre-decided. Please stop thinking up "possible uses" for such items, because they already are going to be used for something, and speculation about such things on the wiki does not contribute to anything except rumours, confusion and conspiricy. --HexZyle 15:10, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
The Mojang team does not plan out every single thing. For instance, they didn't originally intend for Enderpearls to teleport the player. It's reasonable to assume the Mojang team always intended for the Enderpearl to help the player find The End, but clearly they hadn't completely nailed down everything. So while this particular idea might not be adopted, it's great for the community to speculate. They might hit on something 1 time out of 100.--151.193.220.29 00:44, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
Sure, speculation does occaisionally lead to new things being developed. But this is an information site. The only reason Mojang have to come to this site is to check the bug list. They do not comb through every single talk page to find that one "fantastic idea". Also, putting false info onto the mainpage causes confusion. If you wish to discuss something that isn't in the game and hasn't been stated to be planned to be in the game, please take it to the forums, the suggestions site or to a subpage of your userpage. The talk page is for discussing page content only. --HexZyle 02:42, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Egg size

There is no way an Ender Dragon Egg is going to be throw able, or usable in potions, or whatever. It's going to be about the same size as a block, and unbreakable, and you have to light it on fire or something to hatch the Ender Dragon, just watch. Also, don't quote me on any of this, I don't know what I'm talking about. --Saphireking65 15:56, 1 November 2011 (UTC)

See my above paragraph (I'm going to put it into a template actually) --HexZyle 02:47, 2 November 2011 (UTC)

Mining

Has anyone been able to mine the egg? When I click it (left or right) it just teleports away. --Gitterrost4 17:38, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Digging a hole to make it fall into the void also only made it disappear.
 : :S A R A T J E : :Diamondapple  : :T A L K :|: C O N T R I B U T I O N S Only way to get the egg as i've tried is digging under it and placing a torch, as its physics are like sand, you get a 'Dragon Egg' block.

To "collect" or "mine" an EnderDragon egg you must stand in front of the egg and takea step to the left or right and place a sticky piston directly behing the egg. Meaning the piston will face towards you and is now directly behind the egg itself. Then proceed by placing a lever behind the sticky piston facing east or west. Now simply click on the lever and the egg will be able to be collected. It will still move after you place it and click on it so beware. Now to figure out how to hatch it... I do not believe it is hatchable in the current Minecraft 1.9 pre-release 6 update.

Cauldron?

Have anybody tried to put it in cauldron?

Just tried it, it is not possible. --Gitterrost4 21:27, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Teleport Range Wrong

I have just tried it. The egg teleported up to 17 blocks away from its original position. So the 15x15 area in the article is wrong. Should I take it out? --Gitterrost4 21:44, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

Moon Phases/Ender Pearl

I was just thinking that maybe the reason notch added moon phases has something to do with hatching the egg. Also I can't seem to do this in creative so has anybody tried chucking a ender pearl at the egg?

Just tried chucking an ender pearl at the egg, but it just teleports you to it, as was expected. --Gitterrost4 23:42, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

The proverbal 'chat gem'

The egg could be like the chat gem from Diablo 2. Something mysterious looking with in reality no function. The mystery shrouding such an item would keep curious players busy looking for an answer for years. It would very much portrait the moral story we get to read when we finish Minecraft, to stay curious and to explore.

I can see this being reasonable, Notch twitted about that chat gem a couple of weeks ago asking if anyone had ever found out what it was for. If I need to I can scroll through and find the tweet, but the problem with it is.. It could end up being called "speculation" forever just because Notch will not confirm it if he wants it to be a mystery thing. I like the idea of it, its already got people trying new and crazy ideas like incubation.. --Throex TALK|CONT 01:06, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

The surprise will be ruined however, when some smart lil bugger looks at the code and spoils it for us all :P --HexZyle 02:39, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

It came to my mind too that we have rather easy access to the code to figure that out. :P As opposed to that certain game with the actual chat gem. :P I'll camp The End for some hours while AFK soon. See if it spawns a new dragon or so. It may also have a function once release hits. A process of elimination is the best approach probably.
