Revamped Stronghold Finder

Revamped Stronghold Finder

Instead of throwing Eyes of Ender to find the Stronghold, we could be able to craft a Map of Ender that shows us where the Stronghold/End Portal Room is. The crafting recipe for the Map of Ender would be an Empty Map surrounded by 8 Eyes of Ender, which would craft the Map of Ender: a new map written by Eyes of Ender that leads the player in the direction of the closest Stronghold/End Portal Room. Once you find the Stronghold, the Map of Ender disintegrates and turns into a cloud of smoke.

 

Alternatively, it could be added as a Compass of Ender: Instead of throwing Eyes of Ender to find the Stronghold, we could be able to craft a Compass of Ender that shows us where the Stronghold/End Portal Room is. The crafting recipe for the Compass of Ender would be a Compass surrounded by 8 Eyes of Ender, which would craft the Compass of Ender: a new compass covered in Eyes of Ender that leads the player in the direction of the closest Stronghold/End Portal Room. Once you find the Stronghold, the Compass of Ender disintegrates and turns into a cloud of smoke.

    To balance this, Eyes of Ender would no longer be throwable, instead becoming the crafting material for these navigation tools while still being required to activate End Portals. This would keep them valuable and central to progression. On top of that, Eyes of Ender could gain new purposes such as crafting cores for the Map/Compass of Ender, portal activation, more End-related tools, and tiered progression where players choose between saving them for the End Portal early game or crafting them into navigation tools later.

    This redesign would fix the issue of Eyes of Ender feeling niche or underused while introducing items that are easy to learn but hard to master, consistent in mechanics, and rewarding for exploration and creativity.
