Besides ping insane and not having a life, that is really the only benefit I see. Unless I am not seeing something in having two accounts. Are you able to switch dragons between accounts?

No switching I did findout thAt it is a real pain to log out, log in change everything around... Just not worth it

What's the magic combo for a sandstorm dragon? I've been reading all the tips on here for the others i need: Bluefire, Panlong, Sun, and Moon. I have a love incubating and just hatched rainbow (mud/blazing), but I don't see any tips for sandstorm.

Thanks for any advice!!

The horrible sandstorm... I got mine with air + mud.. It came very early and easy so I did not think that much about it.. Then I went to get #2.... No luck what so ever... I would live to have a second one but unless one day I get the will power to save my gems I will prob. Only have one!!! These little guys are insane to get!!!!! Good luck..

Would sandstorm + air or earth be a good choice to try and get your second?

I have tried that combo as well and nothing as of yet....

There's one more piece to my coin factory. My Cascades Mountain island has four Cold habitats and a total of 11 Frostfires and Bluefires (I need one Cold dragon to produce the Ices I'm currently using for the Cold and Air good shrines). With a production rate of 232 coins a minute, the 3 Frostfires and/or Bluefires in each habitat produce 696 coins a minute, which is 41,760 an hour. Since the Cold habitat has a maximum of 50,000, they match up well with the hourly pickup of the Earths with Panlongs.

Blue fire is another one that I can not seem to get 2 of??? Any help???

I wonder if they're going to come out with a Spyro dragon update?

I've had the second account for the gems and for the babies. Kind of like Poppy's nursery island, only I have a whole nursery park. Still no luck with the love dragon there tho

The CGCF stands for the Chinese Gold Coin Factory. When I decided to go for the gold (shrines) I realized that unless I wanted it to take a number of years or I was willing to spend a lot of money, I needed to come up with a setup that delivered gold coins at a high rate. This coincided with the introduction of the Panlong (ask GT Girl why it has the word "long" in it ) dragon that was perfect for what I wanted to accomplish. When optimized it has an extremely high production rate of 411 gold coins a minute. It contains 4 elements which meant leveling up a bunch of Pans would contribute greatly to the gold shrine effort. And, fortunately, one of the 4 elements is Earth, which at 75,000 has the highest gold coin capacity of any of the habitats, except for the premiums such as Rainbow, Sun and Moon. But while Rainbow has a capacity of $1M and produces at the rate of 400 coins a minute, you can only have one per habitat. While an Earth habitat with 3 Pans, each at 411 a minute, produces a total of 1,233 coins a minute, dwarfing the Rainbow. The only problem is, even at a capacity of 75,000, the Earth habitat fills up in about an hour which means you have to constantly retrieve your coins.

To me the perfect combination would be to have a large number of Earth habitats combined with a large number of Rainbows. Kind of a turbo-tortoise and hare approach. I was fortunate to already have a lot of Rainbows and a lot of habitats because I was at level 30. So I decided to invest a few bucks and set up the CGCF. I spent about $125 over a few days and had things where I thought they were just about right. However, a complication arose - I wanted to resurrect my favorite island, the Nursery Island, which meant I had to greatly reduce the number of habitats being used by the CGCF. Fortunately by then the Hibernation Cave had been introduced and, since I'm in a situation where I can pick up coins frequently, I opted to put most of the Rainbows away and concentrate on the high level producing Panlongs. So I presently have 8 Earth habitats with 24 Panlongs on the Asian themed island (thus the name) that produce coins at a prodigious rate.

I then discovered the one or two hour cycle breeding of Air and/or Sandstorm dragons produced at an even higher rate for a very modest cost in gems. So I combined that with the Panlongs to form the final CGCF as you see it now. As a result I should be able to achieve gold shrines in a reasonable period of time at a reasonable cost, something that seemed impossible when I first did the calculations.

Forgive the opus - I just woke up from a nap and wrote this while my head was clearing.

Ahhahaha (on me ) - here I was thinking that CGCF meant a building, or decoration, or something - it's your Panalong island!!!

And? right after whining about how hard it appears to be to get a sandstorm dragon - guess what! Yep, in the hatchery right now - Happy Dance!!!

Thanks!

Edited to add - that was with an Air and a Mud, btw...

How much more time before pans are gone? I am about to give up on them ever coming to my dragon kingdom. Tis exasperating to say the least.

I'm doing that right now and have a 2 hour breed. I doubt it'll work tho, the comments I read on DV Wiki seem to indicate that it doesn't work. it's ok, a second air is also on my 'need-to-get' list.

Just thought that I would share that I got a sandstorm from panlong and air. I was really surprised at first, then i realized that the panlong can be classified as an earth hybrid, and air and earth hybrid= sandstorm

Yup, that's what I want to try next. Good to know it worked for you

Ok off topic but kind of on, did anyone else read the Eragon series? They made a horrible movie but I really liked the books ( there are 4). Anyway for you dragon addicts might be fun to read.

Yes I did good series
