Taming dragons and their abilities
Each dragon needs a specific item and condition to be tamed. For example, players must have have night vision on and no armor or weapon equipped to tame a Night Fury. Furthermore, they must feed salmon, cod, or tropical fish to the dragons to breed them.
Once tamed, players can interact with dragons using a stick. They can sit on them, access their inventory, use their fire ability by pressing R, and use their special ability by pressing X.
How to download the mod
The mod can be easily downloaded from the CurseForge website by searching for the Isle of Berk mod. Though it is currently compatible with 1.182 only, it is safe to say that it will soon be updated for the new Minecraft 1.20 update as well. Bear in mind that players will need a library mod called Geckolib to run properly. Of course, they will also need the Forge API that allows games to run mods.
Once it is installed, players can simply transfer Isle of Berk and Geckolib to the mods folder located inside the main game’s folder. Once done, they can simply launch the official game launcher and run the Forge-modded Minecraft.
