Tactics of Fighting the Dragon In Minecraft
The Dragon of Edge flies aimlessly along the Edge in Minecraft, receiving treatment from the Edge crystals and destroying all the “foreign” for this dimension. The dragon can pay no attention to the player for a long time, and then sharply dive, inflicting direct damage and very strongly discarding his opponent. When receiving damage during an attack, it stops in flight, turns and flies sideways or backwards, but sometimes still continues the attack. The dragon appears even on peaceful difficulty.
The sword is a very important weapon in the battle with the dragon, since the dragon often sits on the disabled portal in the ordinary world, scattering around the Edge acid itself. At this time, it’s immune to attacks by shells and can only be attacked in melee combat. Better is to attack from the back, sitting on the edge of the portal, striking his tail. So you will be able to dodge faster and easier from acid attacks. You have the opportunity to reincarnate as a knight and defeat the mighty dragon. skins4minecraft will help you to find the appropriate skin and dive into the dragon’s atmosphere.
Almost an ideal mean to attack a dragon is a bow. Infused on Infinity bow is preferred, but not necessary, you can take 2-4 stacks of arrows. Shockwave or Ignition doesn’t have an effect on the dragon, but the Force works.
The choice of armor is obvious – diamond or iron armor, three elements on the “Defense”, one on “Protection against explosions”, boots on “Weightlessness”. “Spikes” can help in the fight against the Wanderers of the Edge, but then it is better to have “Strength” and “Fixing”. Be sure to take a sword, the bow on the “Strength” and “Infinity”, pickaxe, mounting blocks (better cobblestone), a stack of food (better to eat exclusively gold apples), useful potions, a couple of buckets of water, empty bottles, pearls of the Edge. Leave an empty slot for the Dragon Egg. You can take a pumpkin to protect from the wanderers of the Edge, but wearing it isn’t very convenient.
Since the dragon is constantly receiving healing from the crystals, they must be destroyed first, while watching the dragon and not letting it go, and also watch the acid balls that the dragon lets out in your direction – their direct hit is deadly, and in the explosion they create a cloud of acid, which causes only slightly less damage than lava. To destroy the crystals you can use any projectiles, but the arrow is easier to get. However, sometimes you cannot get to the crystal from the ground. In this case, you need to climb up with a stone edge stone, shooting back from the dragon, if he approaches. However, in case of failure, the dragon will still throw you off the post, so you can build a column of any material. An easier way is water. You just pour out the water, rise almost to the top of the current, then take the water and put it higher. If the dragon is approaching, it is better to take the water back to the bucket. You can first climb to the highest tower, and from there to shoot all the crystals, moving, if the arrows don’t reach, and using the pearls of the edge along the tops of the towers.
After the destruction of all the crystals, you need to go down and watch them near the return portal. To attack the dragon is better when it flies away – shoot him from the bow. When he turns around to start the attack – pull the bow and lower the string when the dragon comes close. The dragon will break and turn around – at this moment switch to the sword and strike.
Trick 1: Upon destruction, the crystal explodes, causing significant damage. Reduce the damage and the impact of the explosion by placing a small wall in two blocks in height between each other and the crystal. If possible, destroy the crystals, when the dragon flies near them, if the dragon is also healed from it, he will receive additional damage.
Trick 2: If you have enough Edge pearls, you can neatly teleport directly to the crystal towers, if you hit exactly on the crystal, then the explosion won’t do any damage when teleporting, because first there is an explosion and then teleportation.
Trick 3: The beds in the edge explode, which can be used against the dragon. When the dragon attacks, place the bed, and in front of it a wall of two blocks. When the dragon is as close as possible, try to sleep on the bed. Explosion can deprive the dragon up to 1/5 at a time.
Remember that snow and iron golems and dogs are useless against the dragon, but the iron golem and wolf can help in defending against the wanderers of the region. It makes sense to go into battle with the dragon along with a friend if you are playing on the server. Even if you played in a solitary world, then you can open the world for the network, arm yourself and go into battle.
