WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Warped forest hunting

Nether — warped forest.

Hunt Endermen in a warped forest and collect pearl drops. The drop is random, so plan to repeat encounters rather than expect a pearl from every kill. A controlled fighting position helps limit the danger from tall, teleporting mobs.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Nether access and combat equipment.
  • A safe retreat route and food.
  • Looting weapon optional.
  1. Locate a warped forest and choose a clear area where you can retreat safely.
  2. Build or identify a controlled fighting position before provoking an Enderman.
  3. Engage one Enderman at a time and avoid drawing multiple threats into the fight.
  4. Defeat it and inspect the ground for an Ender Pearl.
  5. Use a Looting weapon if available, then repeat encounters while supplies allow.
  6. Store pearls safely and reserve the amount needed for your planned progression or recipes.

Farming tips

  • Endermen are tall and teleport; use a protected position with a low ceiling if you need shelter during a fight.
  • Pearl drops are random, so carry enough supplies for multiple encounters.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeatable as a hunting activity, but pearls are not guaranteed per kill.

Common mistakes

  • Provoking several Endermen at once: engage one at a time.
  • Starting a fight without a controlled position: prepare cover and a retreat first.
  • Leaving drops behind: scan the fight area before moving on.

When to stop or switch

Stop once you have the pearls needed for your current goal or when your combat supplies are low.
