Minecraft is available now for Mobile, PC, PS4, Switch, and Xbox One. Adventure mode map creators could use them as a sort of checkpoint system, and players could even create a central hub in the Nether which connects all of their assets, placing their respawn point there. There are a number of unique uses for this block aside from just regular respawns. It must be refilled constantly, as if the player dies while there are no charges, they will respawn in the Overworld at their starting spawn point. The Respawn Anchor is capable of holding four charges at a time, and one is expended each time a player dies. Initially, it will be empty, as shown in the first picture, but the player can fill it with Glowstone blocks to charge it by simply using the activate button (Right Click, L2, LT) while holding Glowstone. If the player interrupts the ritual by attacking the cultists, the Anchor will be summoned early.

Once the ritual is complete, a Dark Anchor appears and hooks into the ground. The rare block can also be found in small quantities in chests at the new Bastion Remnants structures in the Nether, or in the overworld at the randomly generating Ruined Nether Portal.Īfter crafting the Respawn Anchor, the player should place it wherever they'd like to respawn, right clicking it to set their respawn point. Dark Anchors in the same zone are set to spawn in a way that there will always be one new one within 10 seconds of the last one being destroyed. The first, and most reliable way, is by trading gold ingots with Piglins, as they will have a ~9.46% chance to gift the player 1 - 3 Crying Obsidian in return. For those wondering, there are three main methods of obtaining Crying Obsidian. Crafting a Respawn Anchor requires the player to collect 6 Crying Obsidian and 3 Glowstone.
