The '''exit portal''' (also known as the '''End podium''' or '''End fountain''') is a portal that enables the player to return to their [[Minecraft:spawn point]], activating upon each defeat of the [[Minecraft:ender dragon]]. It is the only way for entities to leave [[Minecraft:the End]] dimension.

== Generation ==
The exit portal always generates at the [[Minecraft:coordinates]] <code>0,0</code> in [[Minecraft:the End]], and is de-activated whenever an ender dragon fight is in progress. The [[Minecraft:Altitude|y-level]] of the exit portal is determined by the height of the terrain, placing the [[Minecraft:End Portal (block)|End portal block]]s at the y-level of the highest block found at <code>0,0</code>. If the exit portal spawns at the height limit, the portal blocks are the highest blocks generated, with the top 3 blocks of the bedrock pillar failing to generate due to the maximum build height having been reached. If there are no blocks at <code>0,0</code>, the portal generates with the base at Y=0.

== Construction ==

The exit portal looks similar to the [[Minecraft:End portal]] but differs in its design. Instead of a frame of [[Minecraft:End portal frame]] blocks, it has a 7-block wide bowl-shaped frame of [[Minecraft:bedrock]], and a central pillar of bedrock with a torch on each side. A [[Minecraft:dragon egg]] generates atop the pillar upon defeating the ender dragon for the first time (and the second time {{in|be}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-51345}}</ref>).

There are 16 [[Minecraft:End stone]] blocks, one under each outer bedrock block, as well as four [[Minecraft:torch]]es. If any of the blocks other than the dragon egg are removed, they regenerate when the [[Minecraft:ender dragon]] is defeated or respawned, making it the only [[Minecraft:Renewable resource|renewable]] source of End stone.

== Behavior ==
The portal returns the player to their [[Minecraft:individual spawn point]]. The [[Minecraft:credits]] roll when a player enters the exit portal for the first time. If the player doesn't have a spawn point or it is obstructed, they return to the world spawn. If the player's respawn point is set with a [[Minecraft:respawn anchor]], the charge will not be used upon returning.

If an entity other than a player goes through, like a [[Minecraft:falling block]] or a [[Minecraft:item (entity)|thrown item]], it is sent to the [[Minecraft:world spawn]]. The area it arrives in remains loaded for 15 seconds,{{only|je|short=1}} similar to the behavior of [[Minecraft:Nether portal]]s.

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
* {{IN|bedrock}}, if the player manages to break all of the [[Minecraft:End Portal (block)|End portal block]]s in the exit portal, the entire structure regenerates after 5 seconds. If all of the portal blocks have [[Minecraft:End crystal]]s above (so the fire constantly eliminates the portal), this regeneration process repeats until a portal block successfully regenerates.
* If the exit portal generates at the tallest possible height and the [[Minecraft:ender dragon]] is defeated, the portal blocks generate in the exit portal as normal, but the [[Minecraft:dragon egg]] does not spawn due to its intended location surpassing the build [[Minecraft:Altitude|height limit]].
* {{IN|bedrock}}, if there are other End portal blocks in [[Minecraft:the End]] and the exit portal structure is completely destroyed, it does not regenerate until the other end portal blocks are removed.
