Dragonvale Tips & Tricks! (NO Friend Requests!)

The CGCF (Chinese Gold Coin Factory)

The process toward getting gold shrines has been accelerating. Up until recently many of the team on the field had not reached level 15. So I dedicated a lot of the cash flow to that. Now that they're all at level 15, there's a twofold effect: (1) They produce much faster and (2) The money that used to go to them now goes to the dragon that is being leveled up specifically for gold shrines. Right now I'm working with Snows, which count toward Air and Cold habitats.

Here's the team on the field:

- 16 Panlongs
- 6 Bluefires
- 5 Frostfires
- 2 Suns
- 2 Moons
- 10 Rainbows
- 3 Reindeer
- few odds and ends to fill in

The lineup is a little scattered because when I put the CGCF together I used all the good dragons I already had (quite a few of the above). And thank goodness for the Hibernation Cave where most of my babies are tucked away (most, because I leveled up the stars).

FWIW,

Yay, my blazing and mud gave me my first Rainbow ever
I didn't even know it was possible but there it is ^^

No luck on a second panlong so far, nor on the panlong sculpture I'm planning to make. My prefered colour clay didn't seem to be in good condition and considering all the frivolous details it's gonna take a while

Yay congrats x

Phibes74, you are one of my gem friends!!

I'm trying both Fog & Lava and Mud & Blazing.....What do you think??

That's exactly the 2 combos I used but my lava was a lvl 4 and the mud a lvl 4 not sure if this helped but I had been trying for ages with other pairs of mud and blazing all lvl 10 x

While collecting some party hats an odd thing happened.
When I clicked a hat a notice popped up that said I leveled to 26 but it wasn't me that leveled. Do we give exp to those that we collect hats from? That's a cool way to help each other if this is in fact the case.

As long as I'm sitting here obsessing... How about an invisible dragon that only appears when it is spewing fire or what ever comes out of it. . A Cheshire dragon of sorts.

Oh, and I also have a pair of Airs and a pair of Sandstorms for breeding purposes. It's a great way to raise money as they're 2/2's. You can produce a lot of cash with minimal gems. Since I'm online all the time right now, I use an accelerated hourly schedule that goes like this:

Hour 1
- Place pair of Airs in one cave, pair of Sandstorms in the other
- Leave one pair alone
- Incubate other pair 5x to fill nursery and cave: cost=10 gems

Hour 2
- Leave one pair alone
- Hatch four in the nursery and incubate one in the cave: cost=5 gems.
- Incubate 3 more to fill nursery: cost=8 gems
Total cost so far=23 gems
Return so far=$2,000,000

Hour 3
- Hatch 4 in nursery and incubate one in cave: cost=5 gems
- Incubate one in other cave to place in nursery: cost=0 gems
- Incubate 2 more to fill nursery: cost=4 gems
- Place new one in cave two: cost=0 gems
Total cost so far: 32 gems
Total return so far: $4,000,000

And repeat....

You could also do this on a two hour rotation for half the return (if you weren't a half-crazed gold shrine builder) for very little cost.

There's some terribly imaginative people on this fourum. Cheshire dragon would be awesome.

Hi all today I got the dreaded and others message.
So I got gems from Durkoj, gt500girl, snuggle and Julie 2588. If you sent me gems please let me know thanks

I don't think so. They may have changed their nick though. Look for a new name on your list that may have just appeared recently. It happened to me recently. The new was a close match to one of my regular trades.

Idk I've had that happen before nd. Was happy till I found out I didn't grow the lvl but Idk if they get XP out of it.

I must have too much time on my hands tonight. I thought I'd work out costs of food and the results were shocking. Discount the time factor and compare costs per unit.
5 units cost 50 coins 10 each
20 units cost 250 coins 12.5 each
75 units cost 1000 coins 13.33 each
300 units cost 5000 coins 16.6 each
800 units cost 15000 coins 18.75 each
3000 units cost 75000 coins 25 each
10000 units cost 500000 coins 50 each
20000 units cost 1000000 coins 50 each
100000 units cost 5000000 coins 50 each

I think we're getting swindled here I might have to rethink my purchasing.

If someone wants to check my sums that's fine as I don't pretend to be brilliant mathematician.

Yay GT! It feels so great to finally get that elusive dragon. I got my second last night right before bed. I swear my husband is good luck because after endless tries I was laying there next to him and got two. Now I have to get a moon and second sun and I'll be happy!

Thanks! Yay! That is great news! That is funny...I'm going to keep trying in bed! Lol. Seemed to work! Hmmm...you may have something there. Everytime I'm ready to start a new breed I will get next to hubby! Lol.
