In Minecraft, there are dangerous creatures everywhere. The fear of losing all their gathered riches is common among Minecraft players who have perished in lava or fallen from great heights since everything resets when a player’s health bar is zero. 

Players’ survival is ensured by several weapons and armor upgrades, as well as brewable potions. Players can easily win the game if they are fortunate, focused, and motivated, but they cannot control death. 

In Minecraft, an item called a Totem of the Undying can benefit players who have experienced death. Read on to learn how you could proceed if you could control death. 

Totem of the Undying: What is it? 

A highly precious and rare artifact in Minecraft is the Totem of the Undying. This item is well known among players, and they constantly look for opportunities to get one. A totem of the undying grants the bearer one chance to live. Thus, once you die, the totem of the undying will take effect and bring you back to life, but you’ll lose it forever. 

Unlike armor, the totem of the undead is a hand-held object similar to a shield. In addition to giving players one health point, the totem grants fire resistance, regeneration for 40 seconds each, and absorption for 5 seconds. 

The best location to use the totem of the undying is for maximum impact.

1. While facing Wither and Ender Dragon, the game’s toughest boss monsters.
2. While you’re mining or exploring caves or ravines, this is handy.

A Guide to acquiring the Totem of Undying 

To get the Totem of the Undying, there are two ways.

1. Woodland Mansions- can receive 4 totems of undying

A roofed forest biome contains a woodland mansion. Finding the spot may be made simpler by obtaining maps of woodland exploration from a village cartographer.

To obtain totems, players must kill the evoker that spawns inside the Woodland Mansion. The evokers will drop at least one totem upon death. Players must switch to hard mode to collect totems.

2. Pillager Outposts

A second method involves killing the raid commander or patrol leader at a pillager outpost. When the raid captain dies, players are cursed with an omen that triggers a raid. A tricky part is triggering the raid when there are inhabitants. To obtain the Undying Totems, players must complete all waves of the raid. Evokers spawn on waves five or seven in Minecraft and drop totems of the undead when they are killed. 

Utilizing Totem of the Undying 

Players can either hold the totem in their main hand to turn it on and off or in their off-hand to mine and fight with it during gameplay. 

Activating the Totem of undying 

1. To begin, open your inventory and find the Undying Totem. Minecraft’s Inventory control options vary depending on the version. Use the chart below to determine your Minecraft version.

2. To equip the totem of undying in your off-hand, drag it to the slot with a shield shape.

3. Instead of a shield, you will carry the totem of the undead, which will activate automatically when you die.

4. Placing the Totem of Undying in one of your nine inventory slots will also allow you to equip it to your primary hand.

The Totem of the Undying will only work if you are holding it when you die. It won’t work if it’s in your inventory but not in your hand. 

5. Your character will hold the Totem of the Undying when you exit your inventory. If you receive a fatal blow in combat and the totem’s effects start working, you’ll hear a huge booming sound and see it appear in front of you.

6. You will receive an instant 1 health point restoration as well as the enhancements Fire Resistance, Absorption II, and Regeneration II.or 40 seconds, you can fast regenerate health while suffering damage for the next 5 seconds.

Absorption II gives you 4 yellow hearts, which absorb any damage you take for the next 5 seconds. 

7. The Totem of the Undying will break when used, disappearing from your inventory. Use it judiciously!

Limitations of a totem of undying 

The totem can shield players from some void effects, but not all of them like

1. The totem will transfer players to an adjacent end island in case they fall into the void. Totems won’t protect players if they fall off the end platform or the elytra runs out while flying at the end.
2. Players can also be shielded from lava, but once it cracks and the fire resistance wanes, they can still perish in the lava.
