The player does not take fall damage from colliding at a shallow angle or a low enough speed. Additionally, speed is quickly lost from sharp changes in direction.ĭirectly hitting any surface while gliding too fast causes damage proportional to flight speed (although this may be calculated from another factor). Another flight method is using the Riptide-enchanted trident. Firework rockets can be used to increase speed. Losing altitude increases speed, and gaining altitude decreases speed. The player can aim their view around to turn or adjust their pitch. To fly, the player must press the jump key while falling, and the elytra spread apart like a beetle's elytra. They maintain their in-world texture design even when they're broken or enchanted.


They are gray in color by default, but they adopt the design of any cape the player is wearing. It's best to know where you started rather than get lost along the way.Elytra are equipped in the chestplate slot, either by placing the item directly in the slot, by pressing use item while held in hand, or by firing a point-blank dispenser at a target. Also, I recommend plenty of Torches, or whatever you typically use to backtrack to the Ender Dragon's location. If not, bring a Pickaxe, so that you can mine the End Stone to construct your paths. Additionally, I recommend plenty of Cobblestone, as you will need to construct your own paths, stairs, and bridges at particular points.

These weapons, armor, and food should also be enough to help you traverse the End biome and climb the Ender City. What you will absolutely need for this journey is the proper equipment to defeat the Ender Dragon. At the end, you will even know how to use the Elytra after returning from your journey! This is no easy feat, however, this guide will take you through the entire process. Yes, you can actually fly! But the Elytra isn’t a craftable item, and will see the player reaching the End, defeating the Ender Dragon, and climbing the End City. The Elytra is a very rare item in Minecraft that allows the player to fly in the air.
