Hunt pearls, win blaze rods and craft 16 eyes of ender for a trophy wall.

Twelve glowing eyes unlock the way to the dragon. Each one needs a monster's pearl and a pinch of fire.

What you’ll build

Glowing eyes unlock the way to the dragon. Build an empty trophy wall, then hunt endermen for pearls safely with a pumpkin on your head. Head back to the Nether for blaze rods, craft your eyes of ender and fill the wall one by one.

Finish line: Your trophy wall is full of eyes of ender, ready for the stronghold hunt.

Bonus challenge: The portal frame may already hold some eyes when you find it. If it has 3, how many spares will you have? Hide them in a secret chest.

You’ll need

  • A carved pumpkin to wear
  • A sword
  • Food
  • A parent or experienced player
  • Item frames

You choose

  • My trophy wall's name
  • My pearl plan, hunt, trade or barter
  • My bet: nights to collect 16 pearls

Stuck?

  • Enderman chasing you? Duck under a roof only 2 blocks high: they're too tall to follow.
  • Wearing a carved pumpkin lets you look at endermen without making them angry.
  • Pearls slow to find? Levelled-up cleric villagers can trade them.
