Build a Base in the End Caves
Choose a Location
Select a cave chamber that offers:
- Enough space for building (look for large open caverns)
- Access to End stone for construction and farming
- Proximity to chorus plants if you plan to farm
- Multiple exits for escape routes
- Distance from major mob spawning areas
Prepare Your Base Area
1. Clear out a flat floor by mining End stone
2. Build walls and a roof to contain the space and reduce mob spawning
3. Install torches or lanterns throughout to light the interior
4. Create separate chambers for storage, farming, crafting, and sleeping
5. Establish multiple exits leading to different cave branches
Establish Infrastructure
- Set up a bed in a secure chamber for respawning
- Build furnaces and crafting tables
- Create a chorus fruit farm nearby
- Construct defensive walls around your perimeter
- Mark pathways back to your base with distinctive blocks or torches
The bedrock roof and floor at Y-levels 128 and 0 provide natural boundaries, making base planning more predictable than in standard End terrain.
