Ender Dragon
The Ender Dragon fight isn't Vanilla!
In this server, you'll find the fight reimagined to what the epic finale of a Minecraft multiplayer adventure deserves - an epic, repeatable Raid! Having personally killed the Ender Dragon is required to enter the actual End. Just it having been killed does not grant everyone access to the End!
To encourage those who have already killed it to help others defeat the dragon, the fight itself drops decent loot, including a strong loot chest luck booster, and a high chance at a Codex of Shadows. Completing the normal fight will also grant the ____ the Ender title (and ____ the Lone Ender if completed solo).
Notes/tips about the fight:
- There are 3 phases, the last of which is split into 4 sub-phases
- Minecraft is a game about building - use this to your advantage, since you can modify the terrain!
- You will need multiple people to succeed
- Don't expect to kill it your first try
