About

The Respawn Anchor is a Nether-exclusive block that lets players set their spawn point in that dimension, similar to how a bed works in the Overworld. When a player uses it, they respawn at that anchor if they die, provided it still has charge.

Admins can give players stacks of them with the provided command or place them in creative mode. The block has a hardness of 50.0, making it durable but still mineable with the right tools. It stacks up to 64 in inventory, so it's practical to distribute in bulk on servers that want to manage Nether exploration or PvP spawn points.
