The weekly dragon fight
The queue, the Saturday 8 pm fight, and the rewards — including the dragon egg for the best fighter.
Contents
Once a week, the Ender Dragon comes back for an event reserved for registered players. The registered players are teleported into the arena, face a dragon scaled to their number, and share big rewards.
When
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Day and time | Saturday at 8 pm (server time) |
| Maximum duration | 30 minutes |
| Minimum participants | 4 |
The countdown to the next fight is shown by /end info and on the website's The End page.
Joining the queue
You need an End pass (see /wiki/end-pass), then:
/end join
| Rule | Value |
|---|---|
| Entry fee | 5,000 |
Leaving the queue before the fight (/end leave) | full refund |
| Fight cancelled for lack of participants | full refund |
| You are in combat when it starts | you are not teleported, 50% refund |
| You are offline when it starts | you are not teleported, no refund |
The queue is reset every week: you have to register again for the next fight. From the hub
(/end), the "View the queue" button shows who is registered, with their faction.
To avoid losing your 5,000: be online on Saturday at 8 pm, and avoid fighting in the 20 seconds before the start.
The fight
At the set time, the registered players who are present are teleported into the End arena and the dragon appears. Its toughness depends on the number of fighters:
| Item | Value |
|---|---|
| Dragon health | 200, plus 40 per fighter |
A boss bar shows its remaining health and the number of fighters. If the dragon survives after 30 minutes, the event ends with no victory and no reward.
Spectators
During the event, players in the End who are not registered are spectators: they can't hit or interact with anything, and the dragon can't hurt them. They are asked not to get in the fighters' way.
Rewards
| Reward | Who gets it |
|---|---|
| 50,000 | every fighter who dealt at least 1% of the damage to the dragon |
| 250,000 bonus | the best fighter (the one who dealt the most damage) |
| The dragon egg | that same best fighter |
At the end of the fight, a damage ranking is shown to all participants. Victories also feed the Dragon slayers leaderboard on the website.
A fighter who stays back without hitting the dragon gets nothing: you have to deal at least 1% of the damage to be rewarded.
