How to Remove and Reclaim Placed Eyes of Ender

If your team needs to reorganize who is committed to a portal, or if you placed an eye by mistake, you can take eyes back directly from the frame blocks.

Reclaiming Your Own Eyes

1. Walk up to the End Portal frame where you previously placed an Eye of Ender.

2. Interact with the frame to retrieve your eye.

3. The item will return to you, and the game will issue a warning that you took your eye back and that the portal state may collapse.

4. Taking your eye back frees up placement slots and removes your commitment requirement if you remove all your contributed eyes.

Handling Teammate Frames and Restrictions

Eye retrieval enforces strict ownership rules to prevent griefing or accidental disruption:

• Ownership Lock: You can only retrieve eyes that you placed. If you attempt to remove an eye contributed by another server member, the eye will stay in the frame, and you will receive an error stating who placed it and that you cannot remove it.
• Portal Collapse: If an active portal is currently open or ready, pulling an eye out deactivates the frame and immediately prevents the gateway from functioning until all frames are refilled.
