Last updated
Ever wondered how to snag that elusive dragon egg in Minecraft? Let’s dive right into the nifty ways you can claim this rare trophy for yourself.
How does one go about snagging the dragon egg, you ask? It’s not as straightforward as finding a chest in a dungeon, but worry not! We’ve got the scoop for you.
The Quick Answer to Snatching the Dragon Egg
To get the dragon egg in Minecraft, you must defeat the ender dragon in The End. After the dragon is defeated, the egg appears atop the exit portal. However, grabbing it isn’t as simple as clicking on it. Here’s how to do it right.
First, you need to prepare for an epic battle with the ender dragon itself. Make sure you’re well-equipped with armor, weapons, and potions. Once you’ve defeated the dragon, the egg will appear. To collect it, you have to use a tricky technique. When you try to pick it up directly, it will teleport. So, instead, you have to push it with a piston or drop it on a torch, allowing you to collect it as a drop.
