The Heart of Ender is the one of the true forms of the Orb of Dominance, the overarching antagonist of Minecraft Dungeons. It reveals itself atop the Obsidian Pinnacle immediately after the heroes defeat the Arch-Illager and attempts to defeat the heroes itself.

Behavior

The Heart of Ender has four different behaviors. The first is used between each attack, while the other three are used in order. Its behaviors are among the most powerful in the game, capable of draining a hero’s health pool in moments.

Crawl

In between its attacks, the Heart of Ender sometimes crawls around the arena, leaving a trail of a black, void-like substance behind it, which deals 50 damage per second to the heroes on contact. The trail of Vessel Block also deals 30 damage per second to the heroes on contact.

Mortar barrage

The Heart of Ender leans back and spits out a cluster of 13 purple slugs from its mouth. When a replica touches the ground, it explodes in a small radius, leaving behind purple flames that damage heroes on contact (50 per tick in code). This attack is followed up almost immediately with a Cross Beam attack.

Cross beam

The Heart of Ender raises up and fires four purple beams from Arch-Illager in a plus formation, which spin clockwise, dealing massive damage (75 in code) per 0.1 second on contact. This is the Heart of Ender's most damaging attack.

During the beam emission, the Arch-Illager emits a strong bright light, and his model becomes glitchy with a ghosting effect.

Arch Visages

The Heart of Ender sinks into the floor as invulnerable visages in its likeness rise out of the ground. Each visage that the Heart of Ender fires a purple beam from its mouth, which deals heavy damage before sinking back into the ground. Once all the heads have started firing, the Heart of Ender rises out of the ground, and the attack pattern repeats. It is attackable during this stage, although it is invisible except for its purple aura.

An arch visage is a non-attackable mob that can be found within the Obsidian Pinnacle mission of Minecraft Dungeons. It resembles the head of the Heart of Ender.

Behavior

Each Arch Visage that the Heart of Ender summons fires a purple beam from its mouth, which deals 35 damage per 0.1 second before sinking back into the ground. Once all the heads have started firing, the Heart of Ender rises out of the ground, and the attack pattern repeats.

Quotes

Trivia

• The Arch-Illager distorted laughter can be heard within the Heart of Ender.
• A clear enderman voice can be heard within some of the Heart of Ender's sounds: mortar barrage, vessel voice, and hurt. The hurt sounds of the Heart of Ender contain traces of enderman and phantom hurt sounds. The "mortar shoot" noises are also partly sampled from the ender dragon's hurt sounds. The orb's death sound contains a sample of a wither death sound.
• If an entity is standing behind the two short pillars, only one of the arch visages can damage it. However, the chance of one of the arch visages spawning behind the pillars is extremely low.
• If it is summoned using cheats, the Heart of Ender is enchanted with Decal Trail.
  • It is also affected by the Unchanting enchantment.
