Latest Bingo Card same as last except it’s a GOLD Olympus instead of a Bronze...
I don’t get it. Am I gonna get the same card over & over til I complete it? Don’t wast my time...😖
After my 4th only partially completed card, I then got one w only a SnGold, Regal (and we all know how common that is 😄) and a generalised Olympic, as well as element options; which I completed w rift breeds just now, with a day to spare and no additional resource spending (GISS); my replacement card has quiksilva and platinum as the difficulties, the rest seem straightforward ... i wonder if BFS are monitoring and realise we'll just not bother to waste resources, or have realised they've been too hard?
Those brave souls in the FB world, and other socsites; has there been similar grumbling about the difficulty level of the cards?
and a shout out to drow , without your wonderful creation, I wouldn't have a snoball's chance of completing ANY cards 😆

Ok I think I may have a record! I now have my 5th impossible epic bingo card in a row. This time the random dragon is a daydream together with the normal range of ridiculous epics. Sorry Kiwi I don’t think BFS are listening & I’m over it!

Input please....do we need to be worried about a high-cost limited dragon being sprung on us in the closing days of the event ? What do our long-time-playing wise ones think? 🤔
As always, thanks SO MUCH to the brilliant valers who figure out the hard stuff for me (event rules/changes, breeding combos/changes, strategy, tips/helps) ! And to my wonderful co-op cave neighbors who so graciously share event dragons! 💕 Would be lost, lost, lost without you all! I could not play this game without this fabulous forum! (well, i could play it, but not very efficiently or productively or happily! 😂)

I totally sympathize with you. I haven’t made the count of my impossible cards, but think it’s the same for me. Now my new card doesn’t even include a « normal » dragon, as it requires: rainbow, sun, moon, galaxy, dream, Olympus, snowy silver, and treasure. So I give up on it...
As for the 🐉 , still no new one for me. I must admit this is the first event I get nothing by breeding. I know I said it’s relaxing for me, as all I get is fail after fail, but no luck at all is tiring.
Please BFS, can you stop this ridiculous hard playing on some valers and let us get at least one dragon and easier boards?

I have to say, I’m really flummoxed about how to earn Magic. I’m a seasoned Valer - been around five years, Level 125, always rocked it during events and maxed out event currency each day in a matter of hours. Over this entire event, I’ve scored a whopping 13,000ish of Magic. I log on two or three times a day, I try to find all of the flag bearers and special guests, I breed for the limited event dragon in all of my non-Rift spots, and breed a little for the bingo card and a little for the limited dragon in the Rift till I use up all of my Etherium. I honestly don’t know what else I could do to boost my Magic levels in this event, and it’s frustrating me to no end. Is there something I’m missing??
GCID- peanutzmom:) And yes, you need to include the smiley face
I give gems randomly to those who seem to need them because I'm not organized enough to keep a list, but I'm always looking for more Party Hat friends!

Can anyone remember the name of the event which introduced the Crysalis dragons? In that thread is the working out of which Crys dragons allowed us to breed the others, in a sort of progressive series; I don't know if that will hold for the new R versions of Crys dragons, but it might be worth a try, and would reduce the number of mystery eggs we need to buy to be able to breed the others...
I recall someone worked out the order of breeding... Back to searching
More to come... ive bumped the locked thread so others can search and share what you find; the eggening is the thread with the info buried somewhere; after page 5 😄
This from miranda22 Just culling the information we have so far on breeding for Chrysilli Dragons. Please jump in to correct any mistakes, and add info as you see fit.
1. Chrysalis dragons behave like regular Epics so you can start breeding for a chrysalis-type dragon in co-op as long as a friend has one.
Epic x Chrysalis = a chrysalis-type dragon (chrysalis x serenity) (chrysalis x ire)
* Circle Method: Write the five dragon names in a circle, clockwise: Chysalis, Swallowtail, Marbletail, Lacewing, and Duskwing, in that order. Each dragon needs the dragon on either side of it as its breeding pair. Every dragon is a parent or child of the two adjacent dragons, and is not related to the two dragons on the other side of the circle.
Kiwichris You need a minimum of 4 Chrysalides to get the full set of 7: One of either Starwing or Glowwing to get the other, any two of the first set of 5, and another one of the first 5 that breeds with one of those two to make something you don't already have. It's awkward, but you can make sense of it like this - you can't get three in a row using the circle method in your post:
Chrysalis > Swallowtail > Marbletail > Lacewing > Duskwing > loops back to Chrysalis
If you get 3 in a row you'll be dead-ended because 2 of your 3 breed to make the other you have, rather than one you need. So for instance Duskwing/Swallowtail/Chrysalis doesn't work, but Duskwing/Swallowtail/(Lacewing or Marbletail) does. {As eg Swallowtail + Lacewing will breed Marbletail, then that Marbletail can breed with Duskwing to make Chrysalis. Am I overexplaining things?}
Edit: This is probably simpler (using first letter of each name only for brevity): These combos work - CSL, CML, CMD, SMD, SLD. These combos don't - CSD, CSM, CLD, SML, MLD.
It occurred to me a couple of days ago that since these event dragons use regular elements, we'll probably be spammed by them during BEB, not unlike the infamous Aurora-rific BEB. That helped me not stress about getting these dragons, and while not stressing, I either bought or bred Totem, and finally got a rift something in my main game (Rift Sprite). For those who aren't getting enough magic to buy dragons, I'm sure you'll get them during the next BEB.
I have to say, I’m really flummoxed about how to earn Magic.

That does seem surprisingly low, peanutzmom:). Are you selling your eggs instead of hatching *all* of them and *then* selling them? I'm logging on 3-5 times a day so I can collect from the rift and be able to breed through the 5,000 E level. Not every breed gives 10 or 20 magic, but sometimes the breeds surprise me and I shake a little magic from a late breed. Are you remembering to collect from the airship's Fortuitous Forecastle every day? Those are the only things I can think of that you didn't mention but if i think of anything else, I'll post again.

Yeah; plus new Crys draggies since that 2016 event; that Reddit image is useful too, thanks @pedrosancheeze 😄

Oh bullpuckey, I forgot abt the hatch first new continual event rule 😩
My complementary Crystalline/Gemstone dragon was a Rifted Wavelyte. Already had one. Of course I couldn’t have received a Rifted Barite, Bismuth, Jasper, Mesolite, Okenite, Pyrite, Sanguinite, Tourmaline or one of the ten Rifted Gemstone dragons I am missing as my Rift is cursed. I remember the good old days when we were gifted a dragon we were missing. Somewhere along the line the code was changed from ‘a dragon they don’t have’ to ‘a dragon they have bred a dozen times.’
Does anyone think there will a surprise ( not the Surprise) dragon released after Totem is gone? There will be a few days left in the event and was just wondering if I should keep doing the bingo cards.
