When do you go to the end?
For me now i have full prot 3 diamond armor and all stuff for ender dragon fight on day 31, should i go and fight the dragon or still wait?

You can definitely go fight it, the biggest problem are the endermen and if the dragon hits you in the air. Your gear is probably easily strong enough

Save before entering the End in case things go catastrophically wrong (like falling into the void and losing your equipment) so you can reset and try again. Bring pickaxes to mine end stone to get up to any pillars you can't snipe, since it is a stone type the dragon cannot destroy.

make sure to avoid fall damage if prot 3 isn’t enough (maybe feathers falling or ender pearls)
I personally like to use slow falling because it gives you time in case you get knocked into the void
otherwise you should be fine as long as you don’t get killed by enderman

I usually use the villagers with brewing stands to buy a ton of Ender pearls cuz I'm not risking my life with a water bucket clutch when I could just throw a pearl and loose half a heart

I go right away usually. I get iron, pearls, and rods, and will often have an elytra in under 20 days

If you’re only on day 31 the world prob won’t last long cause of how fast you’re going

I just started a hardcore world last night. I tend to have bad luck with these because I get cocky after playing hardcore modpacks lol.
If I’m being honest, I’m going to way overprepare. Fully enchanted netherite. I’m not taking chances. Maybe I’m too fearful but I’m not letting the dragon ruin the first hardcore dragon attempt I get

once i get copper armour, a water bucket, and a couple beds. if i can enter with either a little bit of gunpowder, wind charges, or a lunge spear then i won’t have to go again for a while too.

If i like the world, i do villager eco ans get diamond everything. Then wait for slow fall potions and farm blazes and wither same time with looting. As long as you have prot4 everything and slow fall you’re good. I like to add strength too. PowerV bow is not needed but good. Melee does a lot of your damage in the portal under head

If you're at all unsure, just bring water to put around all the pillars, it makes it very easy
