Survive a lethal hit through a Totem of Undying. Status: Verified.

PS5 trophy details

• Grade: Silver. Set: Expansion Pack 6. No separately purchased DLC is implied by the catalogue's expansion-pack label.
• Missable: no story-ending lockout; the task can be repeated in an eligible Survival world. Eligibility can still be lost through settings.
• Difficulty: 4/10, Hizzle editorial estimate. Time: UNSURE. Hidden flag: UNSURE.
• Players: Solo route described; online play is not required by this method. Online required: no for the described route; local play can be used for the two-player tasks.
• Roadmap: late phase of Minecraft PS5 Platinum trophy roadmap.

What to do

1. Defeat an evoker and collect its Totem of Undying. Store spare valuables before arranging a controlled fall over flat, clear Overworld ground.
2. Hold the totem in your main hand or off-hand before stepping off a secure tower. If using the main hand, keep its hotbar slot selected.
3. Take a fall that would otherwise be fatal with your current equipment. Let the held totem activate automatically, then stay safe while you recover and eat.

Before you repeat it

The totem is consumed when it saves you. A fall that your armor, enchantments or effects let you survive will not activate it. Avoid the void, lava and enemies that could immediately damage you again; inventory storage alone offers no rescue.

Evidence and editions

Collect an evoker's totem, hold it in either hand and take otherwise fatal fall damage in a controlled Overworld setting. Activation is automatic and consumes the totem. The chosen route avoids void and repeated damage. Latest stable Bedrock 26.60 notes were reviewed November 3, 2026. Verified means independent research agreement, not an in-game PS5 test. PS4 players should use this method only for a matching trophy in their own stack; see Minecraft PS5 vs PS4 trophy differences. Xbox points and Java advancement equivalence are not established by this PS5 record.
