End stone is a block that appears in the End, and apart from generated structures, makes up all of the solid ground that exists in that dimension.

Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Breaking

[edit | edit source]

End stone can be obtained using any pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

Natural generation

[edit | edit source]
A large island consisting entirely of End stone.

End stone is found only in the End, where it makes up all the floating islands that generate in the dimension.

Post-generation

[edit | edit source]

Exit portal

[edit | edit source]

The 16 End stone blocks under the edge of the exit portal are replaced when the ender dragon is respawned, and again when it is killed. Because End crystals, which are used to respawn the dragon, are renewable, this makes End stone renewable as well.

In Bedrock Edition, End gateways generate a small floating island of End stone when an entity travels through, for the entity to land on if there are no valid locations.

If an exit portal exists at a different position from the world origin (for example, an old exit portal from before 1.9), it is completely converted into End stone if the ender dragon is re-summoned.

Usage

[edit | edit source]

End stone has a blast resistance of 9, which is 3 more than that of ordinary stone. This is the highest blast resistance of any block movable by pistons besides anvils‌[Bedrock Edition only], ancient debris, and netherite blocks.

It cannot be picked up by endermen nor destroyed by the ender dragon.

It is the only block on which chorus flowers can be planted.

History

[edit | edit source]

Java Edition

[edit | edit source]
Java Edition
1.0.0Beta 1.9 Prerelease 3 A white cobblestone texture was added to the terrain.png presumably to be used as End stone; however it wasn't used by any block at the time. Language files from 1.1 suggest this texture to be the original texture for End stone, as the internal name and translation key was "whiteStone".
Beta 1.9 Prerelease 4 The white texture has been changed, and End stone has been introduced as a block with the overhauled texture.
End stone can be successfully mined only with a pickaxe, dropping cobblestone like normal stone.
Beta 1.9 Prerelease 5 End stone now has a name in the inventory.
End stone now drops itself when mined.
Beta 1.9 Prerelease 6 Mining time now decreases with pickaxes.
1.915w31a End stone can now be used to craft End stone bricks.
15w44b The ender dragon can now be resummoned using End crystals, a renewable resource, which regenerates End stone below the exit portal, making End stone renewable.
1.1418w43a The texture of End stone has been changed.
18w50a The texture of End stone has been changed, again.
1.19.4
Experiment
Update 1.20		23w04a End stone can now be used to craft eye armor trims.

Issues

[edit | edit source]

Issues relating to "End Stone" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

Trivia

[edit | edit source]
  • End stone's texture is an inversion, geometric translation, and recoloration of the cobblestone texture. (Specifically, the texture is shifted 3 pixels up, and 8 pixels to the right.)
  • In the descriptions for several Youtooz figures, End stone is consistently referred to as "soul stone."[1][2]
  • In a Block of the Week article, Jens Bergensten remarked he wanted to think of some sort of "fabled history" for the block, but struggled to think of anything worthwhile.[3]
  • Analyzing End stone in a material reducer reveals it to have a structure similar to carborundum.‌[Bedrock Edition and Minecraft Education only]
