- The Minecraft Survival Guide Season 3 continues in Minecraft 1.20.2!
This tutorial will show you how to defeat the Ender Dragon, and explore the rewards of the fight!
Returning to the End, we take on the Ender Dragon - destroying the End Crystals that heal it from the obsidian pillars, damaging it in the air with a bow, and dealing melee damage when the dragon perches on the portal.
We deal with the dragon knocking you into the air, and the distraction of accidentally looking at an Enderman!
Once the dragon is defeated, we discuss how to obtain the dragon egg, what to spend your xp levels on, how to travel through End Gateways, and what to look for when you explore the outer End island!
Along the way we look at how chorus plants can be grown and harvested, why you shouldn't sleep too close to a silverfish spawner, and how to respawn the dragon if you want to fight it again!

I promise I didn’t post this early just to throw off all the “babe wake up” comments 😂
Just goofed up when I scheduled the video and didn’t set the time right. Enjoy the 11 hours of early access!
First
Babe, don't go to sleep-
Thankyou!!!!! I have been wondering how to open all the outer end portals for a while.
I’m so glad you goofed up bc I had a very stressful day at work and you made my night 10 times better
Love it
If you’re falling into the void you can eat some of the teleporting fruit and it will put you back on the island. Keep that on the hot bar.
By the time u realise switch and eat ur out of the 8 block range
@@yooooooohth use hotkeys its not that hard to do.
@@harshyadav9337 only if your pc.
sadly, it is not that reliable, even with godspeed reaction time. the falling speed will kick you out of that 8 block range before even finishing to eat. maybe if theres a small ledge below the island, maybe it can reach that, but it might fail to detect that block. i suggest having enderpearls tho, atleast that is somewhat reliable if you mastered it.
Ender pearls are more reliable in that situation. I think falling speed and eating speed leaves a very narrow window of success. That said they did change chorus fruits recently so that might have changed.
Quick comment before I finish watching. Some XP orbs will teleport through the return portal to your original spawn point (not the temporary spawn you set with a bed). Be sure to visit your original spawn soon after returning to the overworld to claim the rest of your XP orbs.
And sometimes you have to go there, restart your game and then you'll get it.
I also suggest using bottom slabs for bridging so that you don't have to squeeze passed Endermen that can spawn on top slabs. That can be very scary if you don't have a lot of bridging experience.
Just a side note on the Chorus Fruit, when you smelt them, you can also use the Popped Chorus Fruit and Blaze Rods to craft End Rods (lighting).
It’s amazing how the Ender Dragon is a kind of gateway into a different kind of Minecraft. You go the entire game without beating it and have all these adventures without reading those beautiful credits at the end or marveling at your victory over the beast.
I have the pleasure to say I’ve beaten the Ender Dragon once in single player survival. You know when that was? A month ago. August 2023. I’ve been playing this game since release 1.0 and it took me this long. However, I’m not angry or jealous of how long it’s taken me. The experience was wonderful and reading those credits and taking the egg gave me a sense of supreme satisfaction.
Beating the Ender Dragon is not a race to me. It’s a challenge to go the extra mile, to not stop just at the Nether Fortress or to just keep building my castle. It’s a point where I finally pushed through the veil of a regular Minecraft world and one where the power of flight was now a possibility. Although it took me ages to actually get to the fight, the battle itself was wonderful. I had fully enchanted diamond armor and weaponry like the days of old, and my skills with a bow were actually quite good. It gave me an ending to an age of my childhood that gave it a nice finish. I finally beat the game that I’ve been playing for years. I loved it. And I continue to play today with the same passion for creativity.
😢that was beautiful
just a heads up (pun? not intended) you'll continually get yeeted up into the air if you do crits/jump-attacks on the dragon when you're in the fountain & it's perched above you. To not have to deal with yeetage, don't jump, just let your weapon charge up between hits to do "strong attacks", and you'll chip away at the dragon's health still decently fast, with zero risk of yeetification.
In terms of actually hitting the dragon, if you do F3+B you can see the massive main hitbox, and the smaller hitboxes that much closer resemble the outline of the dragon. attackign the massive hitbox won't work, but attacking the smaller hitboxes (best of all* is the lil hitbox around the dragon's head) will do the best possible damage
Also, when the dragon leaves it's perching phase, if you weren't in the end fountain at the time (e.g if you were still running around shooting crystals), the dragon will charge you. To avoid getting yeeted in this situation, keep an eye on when the dragon's leaving its perching phase, pillar up 2-3 blocks, and then drop back down again as it gets closer to you. It will fly a little higher to try & hit you off your 2-3 block pillar, but then not have enough time to dip back down again when you've dropped off, and so you won't get hit at all!
*assuming you're not doing an SSG speedrun strategy called "one shot strats", which is certainly not recommended for regular minecraft gameplay :D
tysm
One chorus fruit trick I've learned: if you are trying to ender pearl to a distant island, and it wound up being farther away than you thought- as the end pearl is falling to hit the smooth wall on the far side to my doom, I eat a chorus fruit that is ready in my off hand before it hits- that little eat teleport 'undoes' wherever the pearl was going to send me. whew.
Cool! Thanks 😀
Here we go, season 3, 3rd Dragon fight! Even though i consider myself a minecraft veteran, i still like seeing how to prepare for the fight!
Yeah, same here!
Especially since new items can bring new strategies (like slow falling and scaffolding)
3rd first dragon fight, there have been at least 20 in the first season.
Sunday night survival guide video , I’m so down ! Thanks Pix!
Babe don't sleep yet, new survival guide episode just dropped.
Yes!!!!!
Bot
(Yawn!?!?)
Huh?!?! Ok....I'm up
for bedrock players. back in april, mojang decided to add a ticking area in the End dimension in 1.19.70. this means that the End island has permanently loaded chunks on realms and servers. so if you try to fight the dragon and you die, your stuff will despawn if you don't go back in five minutes. it is also very useful for a lot of farms that can be always loaded without a player
Ohhh, thanks for the info!
i've only been playing minecraft a few months, but i've been watching it for years. i thought fighting the ender dragon was gonna be easy seeing how others would easily avoid looking at endermen and I knew i was pretty decent with my bow. Turns out i am decent with my bow, but not so good at avoiding looking at endermen. i swear it's like they walk into your line of sight on purpose😭
i did use a jack-o-lantern but i hated not being able to see
you can use a texture pack to remove the pumpkin effect
@@spottynaughtyvanilla tweaks on top
Best practice imo for future dragon fights if you do multiple in a world. Mine tunnels through the bottom middle of each tower for a place to hide. I also mine straight up to the top in the middle of each tower so you can safely tower up and kill the crystals. Also a nice way to get lots of obsidian 😁
Nice idea! Like it :-)
Don’t the towers completely regenerate when respawn img the dragon?
Pretty sure that is one way to farm obsidian.
I discovered early on in Minecraft that I'm a much better terraformer than I am with structures. Getting there slowly though.
My first terraform in Minecraft was hogging out the stronghold into a large area, lining it with black concrete, and turning it into a winding path through a dark oak forest into a clearing where you can jump to the end. Been able to make it even more moody since then with all the updates the past couple years.
also ive found that if you bridge using lower slabs, you wont have endermen spawning on your bridge, which can be helpful for not getting lanky men trying to nudge you off (learned after not knowing how the end gates worked and bridging across the void to the islands)
Hey Pix, a bit of helpful infor about the coras fruit is it doesn't just teleport you to a random location it teleports you to a random solid block within a radius. Its very helpful if falling into the void or a high place to get you back on solid ground.
i never would have done this on my own if i hadnt been following along with you in this series. i just defeated the dragon on my own for the first time and ive been playing MC for many years

😂😂😂
Sunday night bonus video from Pix. Love it.
Early Access!!! Let's go🤩🤩 Also, you are showing a lot of restraint by not destroying that silverfish spawner. Especially knowing how much you like silverfish.
What a treat! Love an early video release!
This Cliffhanger...cmon, pix! 😂
My good friend made the most awesome farm out of the silverfish spawner! And put the end portal in a small room next to it. It makes so much xp! I love it!
Great fight! You took care of her a lot better than I did. Your real skills on the bow shots show up. Amazing shot up into the cage on the crystal, too.
Didn't watch this immediately as I am following along on this seed (on hard.) I didn't want spoilers and I was just about ready to jump into the portal when you posted. Epic, epic luck on the city!
Perhaps you can get the 'You Need a Mint' and the 'Is it a Plane?' advancements when you re-spawn the dragon. But the fight when you can fly is so much easier. And just as fun!
Finally early! Just wanted to let you know I really love your calm, informative content, Pix. Hope you have a splendid week!
That Enderman wanted a cameo with the one and only Pixlriffs during the ending lol
up to you pix if you intend to include this info in your end city raiding video (or just have it in your back pocket to make it easier to find cities in the future)
to quote Feinberg (a wildly good minecraft speedrunner):
"end city regions go by chunks - they can spawn in 10x10 chunk regions, with borders around each region that are 10 chunks wide, like a checkerboard grid. (most accurately: like a "buffalo check" pattern, where grey/black = no cities, then the other colour = yes cities)
they spawn in chunks between 0 and 9 mod 20 - heres an example for what this means
at chunk 0/y/0 an end city can spawn - as well as chunk 9/y/0, 0/y/9, 9/y/9, and anything in that large box (like 2/y/2, 4/y/7, 8/y/3, etc.) then there's an 10 chunk border until 20/y/20 - so end cities can't spawn at 12/y/13, 18/y/11, 10/y/10, 16/y/2, 4/y/11, etc. cities can't spawn anywhere where either chunk coordinate is between 10 and 19 mod 20.
end cities can spawn in chunk numbers ranged 0-9, 20-29, 40-49, 60-69, etc. - and for negative coordinates they spawn in chunk numbers ranged -11 to -20, -31 to -40, -51 to -60, etc.
THE BIGGEST TIP
once you find one end city, fly in a STRAIGHT LINE (along the axis) in whatever direction you want to until you find another one. that makes sure that you're always in a "hot zone" for city spawns. but at the end of the day, cities are just really f***ing rare, so you can just get unlucky."
(quote edited here & there for clarity)
I spread this info here in order to save whatever poor soul befalls the fate I had on my pal's minecraft server a few years back, where I travelled for *hours* on foot, over ten thousand blocks out (10.5k I believe) before finding my first city ...and then not finding a city with an elytra for another 4 thousand blocks or so!
I think it's pretty vital info, but I can understand if ya don't include it as it may not come across well summarised on video/may not fit with ya style/video plans/ odds on you've already recorded the video :D in that case, may this comment be a glimmer of wisdom filed away in someone's memory that they avoid eternal torment.
Already recorded the end city video, and I explain (although in much less detail) that travelling in a straight line is an effective way to find more cities. And it works very well for me!
You’ll see more of that on Wednesday
I laughed at the Enderman who photobombed you during the outro! "I want to say goodbye too!"
I’ve been looking for a UA-cam for weeks that’s not crazy cringey, loud etc and your videos are ace. Can’t wait for the next episode. I usually play most updates but you’ve taught me some bits along the way
This reminds me of when I used chorus plants to grow a fancy fence. Good times.
Oooh, unusual. I'm guessing PM and AM got mixed up in the scheduled release? :D
i think you’re a day early! either way we love your content!! ❤
The smile in his voice when he hit the crystal through the bars :D
I used to poke fun at UA-camrs for the heinous crime of not having a stack of glass bottles to fill during the dragon fight (I am a stickler for grabbing 64 dragons breath in order to brew those OP lingering potions) , but I figured that you would mention the dragon respawn mechanic. Rarely disappointed and always happy to watch a new video ❤️ Keep up the awesomeness for us old schoolers
Certainly killed my fair share of dragons, but I love watching other people do it. Every little thing you can pick up and put in your tool bag is helpful.
lmao "69, very nice" - Pix 2023
I watched this video 5 or 6 times before working up the courage to fight the dragon. I made it through and finally have some shulker boxes 😊
Enderman who got into frame at the end was like "who is this guy talking to?"
I'm happy to see you posted it early, so I'm not one of the last ones to see it for a change!
I was surprised you didn't take a slow falling potion or have one ready on the hotbar. Obviously you didn't need it though.
Damn pix! Blessing 2am vid from you incredible with another banger! Hope u didnt confuse 12 pm local time with 12 am 😅😅
that was so fun!!! I'm loving this series❤
Great video man!
Hello Pixles!! Great video I love the content! Thank you!!
Hey Pixl, all Ican say is... so close yet so far... was hoping for a quick raid but wil have to wait for the next eps. Thanks Pixl for this eps and see you in the next one. Cheers
I've been playing Minecraft since 2010. And I am such a coward that I never killed the dragon by myself. Until now! I managed to live and didn't need to cheat or resort to getting others to do it. Those potions of slow falling were invaluable.
And before I get any negative Nelly's calling me a noob, I know. I know I am cowardly. But between my severe anxiety and blindness it is a real challenge.
it would be really cool to make a Fallout style hazard wasteland type of farm in the end centered around growing chorus fruit and ranching shulkers or something
Tnx for making me play survival legit for the first time, and i actually killed the dragon twice (mobile) tnx again ❤
I'm so excited now that you beat the dragon! The whole world is going to open up I can't wait to see what you do with it!
Killer thumbnail, Pix
Hi pixlriffs
Long time subscriber here.
I enjoy your videos a lot and watch them often.
Hope you are doing well.
Since busy with work unable to watch them as often anymore.
Keep up the great work
hey pix ! at last happy to have reached late game stuff in survival guide ... waiting for some impressive project..
As an unrelated request/note: will you start a new 1.20 skyblock series , a lot has come to skyblock lately and new mechanics and stuff and personally your skyblock series ( both 1.15 and 1.16 ) were arguably the best skyblock series I've come across.!
Excellent as always! Scaffold, like ladders but better, why didn't I think of that?
Episode 50, nice!
Noooooo you cut off at the best bit 😂 can't wait for the next episode
Great episode.
If the dragon knocked you pretty high in the air, use ender pearl to the ground might be better if you not really good with water bucket mlg
Slow falling potion is the way
Man, I got screwed on my End portal. It was just a platform in the open. I wasn't prepared to pillar to the island. LOL!!!
Much respect to you, Pix. Entertaining & informative as ever!
One little question (which may have been dealt with in other comments I may not have read) :
When you describe how to pick up the dragon egg, it kind of assumes knowledge of that special MC dynamic sometimes referred to as "the torch trick".
For example, any item which is affected by gravity (like gravel), will be automatically converted into an entity which the player can pick up, if it falls onto a torch... have I got that right.
In any case, I'm pretty sure it is this dynamic which enables the player to pick up the dragon egg after the fight.
Apologies if you had explained this elsewhere. And I look forward to watching your ongoing adventures in MC! :-)
If I watched this series when I was getting into Minecraft back in the beta, I'd have loved it
I still do 😂
I wouldn't recommend slabs at all for bridging, particularly on a multiplayer server.
It might be fixed for now, but there's been plenty of issues in the past where the server "disagrees" on how you placed a slab causing you to fall through the block.
Another option is to use some of the wood to craft a double chest and dump your gear in there before bridging. If you die, the most you lose is some bridging supplies, and you don't have to worry about beating the despawn timer to get your gear.
I am loving season 3. Would you be averse to doing an episode on Minecraft launchers, resource packs, data packs, client side mods, and other customizations? Your tutorial talents are amazing and I have friends that always ask me for help with these things and would love a resource I could share with them.
Eyyyy!! unexpected but I'm not complaining ❤😊
That endy was just looking around like he couldn't figure out who you were talking to!
Pix: You’re only supposed to have one dragon egg per world. *looks at Grian and Doc*
Curious why you didn’t bring an unbreaking 3, mending book with you?
Thanks for posting! Love the series!
I didn’t want to over-prepare for this first trip to the End. I mention that briefly in the next episode!
I started playing Minecraft before granite came out. Minecraft has been my favorite game for a long time by now, but I rarely ever have the motivation to make it to the End :/
you forgot to mention that hitting the dragon's head does four times as much damage as hitting it somewhere else
Quick, someone wake up Pix and tell his his vid dropped at 12:00am not 12:00pm UK time lol
“69 levels. Very nice”
A man of culture I see.
"You can only have one egg per world..." he says, before hastily adding "Unless you're Docm77."
Whether it’s getting ready for bed or just waking up for work, a survival guide video is always what I need! Keep surprising us Americans, Pixl!
How come this video is early? I know it is cause i ussually eat lunch when you put the vids up, and now im putting off sleeping and its 2 am
it released at 12AM instead of PM uk time
careful with water bucketing when holding a shield! I was digging a hole for a beacon the other week, jumped down with the intention of landing in my own water, found that my shield activated instead of deploying the water... splat.
Nice 8:41
Looking for the hermitcraft recap and got the survival guide, not going to complain I love watching the survival episodes as I use then on my worlds
What's the best direction to find the cities?
Is using a flying machine the coolest (and loudest) way to find one?
This fight is so much harder to do in bedrock.
The slower health regen.
Can't shoot the crystals through the corners of cages either.
Endermen will teleport out of boats and minecarts when attacked in bedrock too 😅
Love the content tho pix. Been watching since season 1. ❤️
The dragon fight in BE is a whole different story😂
On Bedrock you can see the outer islands from the main island, only because Bedrock has a max render distance of 96 chunks (PC only). You might be able to do the same with the Bobby mod on Java.
Damn thats impressive
It's spooky season, my dudes.
Correction: feet height. Explosions damage your feet which is why low ground is so op in crystalpvp for example
Last time I fought the dragon she actually yeeted me INTO the void. I couldn't do anything. Maybe if i i had taken a slow falling potion with me but dang, what an embarrassing and slow painful death lol
Question, i just started playing minecraft yesterday. I been playing with the settings and everything. I started playing a star wars version (survival, peaceful) and found a portal thing and it went to the ender dragon. I didn’t have anything but a bone and killed it. But i fell right into the other portal. Was i able to collect anything if I didn’t fall into the last portal? (On the switch.)
"69, very nice."
- Pixlriffs, 2023
whoa I’m glad I stayed up playing minecraft😂😂
Cool
Episode timings changed?
Or he accidentally uploaded it early
What? Bridging with TOP slabs. Recipe for a visit to the void.
Once when i went to the end something glitcher qnd there was almost a dozen dragons there! So dissapointed they djdnt drop eggs. Not sure why that happened. This was before the end islands or anything. I was terrified.
Finally the end
Australians: Yes finally
Well then, I just entered the end in my world, and I've got 2 dragons! Wish me luck! 🤣
Nailed 'em 👍
I googled around too, I see instances of people reporting a bug on bedrock, but this was on java. Also interesting, only one health bar for the dragon was present. The first one I killed was not linked to the health bar, did not create the exit portal or the gateway portal, didn't give that much xp, but did grant the advancement. Then the second one was linked to the health bar and did open the portals and gave the expected xp. Quite weird, and not what I had planned for, but with enough running and plenty of food it went fairly well.
Oh the cliffhanger
Your dragon 🤡 our dragon 🗿💀
Ahhh, Here we go, the Survival Guide episode I've been waiting for. De puta madre 👏
a Sunday upload? ooohh
Pix, is there a way on making an xp farm without using mob spawners?
Search for Enderman XP farm, or Gnembon's flushing mob farm. You can also get a ton of XP from villager trading.
If you want something really passive for the background, you can make a big kelp farm and route the kelp through a smoker array. You'll have to periodically compact the help into fuel blocks to feed back in.
To get the XP, put levers next to the smoker output hoppers. Switch the levers on, and the cooked kelp will stay in the smoker, where you can pick it up, and get all the XP from the previously cooked kelp. Then switch the levers off to let the kelp through.
When you were exploring the Far end islands Why were there a cross in left bottom
Oh happy Day!
