How to tame a phoenix 1 word FIRE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

You can look for it with a parasaur when heatwave isn active...it can detect an ash pile...i got lucky and found one after 5min

Find a phenix during a heatwave and follow it until it ends. The phenix will turn into ashes and land on the ground but will spawn right back at the same exact spot during the next heatwave. Build a trap 6 blocks high so I can't glitch out and you have yourself a trapped phenix to tame:)

When heat wave start and Phoenix is back after it was ash pile use tons of oil jars and light them boom you have a Phoenix and they eat sulfur
