Players must first defeat the Ender Dragon to get a dragon egg in Minecraft

Defeating the Ender Dragon is certainly no easy task.

Players must first create an End Portal and travel to The End

The first step for players obtaining the dragon egg is to travel to The End. This can only be done by players traveling through the End Portal. Players must place 12 Eye of Ender around the portal in order to activate it. These can be crafted by combining an Ender Pearl and Blaze Powder to create the Eye of Ender. Once the portal is opened, players should ensure they are ready for the battle ahead.

Destroy the End Crystals

After entering The End, players need to make their way into the center where the Ender Dragon is and begin destroying the End Crystals. These can be shot with arrows, or if the player can make it up to them, they can be broken by being struck. Once all of them are destroyed, players should engage the Ender Dragon in combat.

Defeating the Ender Dragon

After taking enough damage, the Ender Dragon will be vanquished. Players should then check out the very top of the Bedrock Portal that spawns after its defeat. There will be a dragon egg sitting neatly on top of it. Players can then strike the dragon egg, which will cause it to teleport to a nearby block. They can then try one of the tricks below to harvest the dragon egg.

Using the Piston Method

The dragon egg cannot be broken by traditional methods. Upon striking the egg with a tool, the egg will teleport to a nearby air block and fall to the ground. To break it, players can place a piston and a lever next to the dragon egg, as shown in the image above. Once the players activate the lever, the piston will instantly break the egg, and the player can pick up the dragon egg and place it anywhere they see fit.

The Torch Method

Another way that players can easily harvest the dragon egg is by using the torch method. This involves placing a torch right below the block the egg is sitting on. Once the player breaks the block under the egg, it will fall onto the torch and instantly break. This is a great method to quickly harvest the dragon egg with minimal effort.

Show off the dragon egg

Once players have collected their dragon egg, it’s time to show it off. The dragon egg makes a great trophy item and is a surefire way to show a player’s friends that they have indeed defeated the Ender Dragon.
