Hi im very new at both minecraft and modding in minecraft and after adding Better end mod and testing a bit around in creative, i found it extremely hard to locate and find an end city / a ship with elytras on. After probably 2 hours of flying around i have not been able to find anything but wrecked ships and then small huts / house.
I play the game since 2013 and I find it increasingly difficult to find good spots to build something. Sometimes I spend hours flying around in a world until I find a place that is "enough" for me. If I play a modpack with a mod like biomes o plenty, it gets even worse.
I think a big factor in what determines the difficulty of a game like minecraft is your knowledge of it. Not just experience, but general knowledge. Back when I first started playing in beta, you basically had to go to the minecraft wiki to get any amount of information.

- Leaving the End
Advanced players can enter Minecraft's final zone - The End. Players go to the End to challenge the ender dragon and explore treasure-filled cities in the sky. Before you can do this, however, you'll need to find a rare End Portal using Eyes of Ender. Make sure you're well equipped before you set out on this long and difficult quest.
Not all strongholds have portal rooms, but there is an infinite amount of strongholds, so you can travel far away from your current stronghold to find another one if necessary.
If you can't get the portal to activate, build a new one around you while standing in the center. This guarantees that the blocks are facing the right direction.
Enter the Nether to collect blaze rods and ender pearls, then craft them into Eyes of Ender. Use Eyes to locate strongholds and activate portals.
Finding and activating an End Portal requires ingredients you can only find in the Nether, Minecraft's underworld.
and travel through it to get started.
To make a Nether Portal, place obsidian blocks in a rectangle 4 blocks wide and 5 blocks high, skipping the interior of the rectangle. If you are low on obsidian, you can skip the corners. Activate the lower obsidian blocks with a flint and steel.
The Nether is a dangerous area. Prepare yourself with high quality food and enchanted diamond equipment. You may also want a shield, a bow and arrow, and wood to craft with.
Kill blazes to collect blaze rods
Blazes are yellow, floating monsters surrounded by smoke. They are only found in Nether fortresses — structures supported by pillars over a lava ocean. Defeat blazes and collect the blaze rods they drop. You'll usually need at least 5 blaze rods to find and activate the end portal, and it often takes 7 or more.
Use an eye of ender.
Equip the eye of ender and press “use” while you’re holding it. It will float up into the air, then travel a short distance horizontally in the direction of the nearest stronghold. (All end portals are found inside strongholds.)
In the Computer version of Minecraft, the closest strongholds are over 1407 locks away from the world's origin point.
Get to at least this distance before using any eyes of ender.
The eye of ender will leave a faint purple trail behind as it moves, so you can follow it even if you lose sight of it.
The eye of ender will only work in the Overworld, not the Nether.
Press F3 on the computer, or equip and use a map on the console. Locate the x, z, and Facing values on the number overlay.
On some Mac computers, you'll need to press Fn + F3, or ⌥ Option + Fn + F3.
Throw an eye of ender.
Move your cursor to the point where the eye hovers. Write down the x, z, and Facing values on your screen. The x- and z-coordinates describe your position on the map, and Facing tells you the direction you are looking. You only need the first number listed after Facing, not the second.
Repeat this at another location.
Travel 50 to 100 blocks away from your last position. Do not walk in the direction the eye traveled, or directly opposite it. Use an eye of ender again, move your cursor over the point where it hovers, and write down a new set of x, z, and Facing values.
Each Minecraft world has a string of letters and numbers called a "seed." This determines the whole terrain layout, including the stronghold locations. Locate and copy (or write down) this string:
Java edition: Type /seed. If commands are not enabled, turn them on first using Esc → Open to LAN → Allow Cheats → Start LAN World.
Console edition: Go to the select world menu and look for the seed next to your world. (If it isn't listed there, you may need to download a seed finding tool.)
Bedrock edition: Go to the main menu. Hit Play, then Edit. The seed appears underneath each world name.
Create a Creative world with the same seed.
Create a new world set to Creative mode. On the world creation screen, enter the seed exactly as it appears. (Click More World Options first in the Computer edition.)
Once you’ve gone through the end portal, the only way out is to kill the dragon first. You’ll need to use your sword, bow and arrow, and plenty of armor to wear the dragon down bit by bit. It can take a lot of preparation and work, so you should only go through the portal once you’re ready.
The dragon is guarding the portal back to the Overworld, which is why you have to defeat it first.
Go through the obsidian gateway.
Once you’ve defeated the dragon, you can enter the gateway that it was protecting. This will bring you back home and return you to the normal game play area.
You’ll even get to watch Minecraft’s “credits” since you reached the very end of the game.
Return to the last place you rested if you die.
