How to Throw an Eye of Ender in Minecraft Xbox 360 Edition

You don't "throw" it like a snowball. You **use** it (right-trigger / LT depending on layout) and it **flies autonomously** toward the nearest Stronghold.

Controls (Default "Classic" Layout)

1. Craft **Eye of Ender**: Blaze Powder + Ender Pearl (Crafting Table or 2x2 inventory grid).
2. Move Eye of Ender to **Hotbar**.
3. Select it (LB/RB or D-Pad).
4. Press **LT (Left Trigger)** — *Use Item / Place Block*.

Note: On "Classic" layout, **LT = Use/Place**, **RT = Attack/Break**. On "Standard" layout, **RT = Use/Place**. Check Settings → Controller Layout.

What Happens

• The Eye **floats upward** in a particle trail, travels ~12–16 blocks horizontally toward the Stronghold, then **drops as an item** (or shatters — 20% chance).
• Pick it up and repeat every ~30–50 blocks to triangulate.
• When it **hovers low / goes straight down**, you're above the Stronghold. Dig down (staircase!) to find the **End Portal Room**.
• Insert **12 Eyes of Ender** into the Portal Frame blocks → Activate → Jump in → **The End / Ender Dragon**.

Tips

• Bring **64+ Eyes** (8 stacks Ender Pearls + Blaze Rods → Powder). You'll lose ~20% to shattering.
• Use **Coordinates (X/Z)** — write down where Eyes drop → interpolate Stronghold center.
• **Creative Mode:** Eye flies directly to portal; no shatter.
• **Xbox 360 Edition Specific:** World size limited (864×864 blocks). Only **1 Stronghold** per world (PC has 128). Eye always points to it.
