We will be able to clone a ghostly we don't have from one a friend has put in the cbc (single-parent clone) after they go out of season, right? Hopefully their season will be extended after the event ends, as the previous batch of impossibly difficult ones were.
Yes, except for single-element ghostlies. You can't single-parent-clone those since they are evolutions.
I'm thinking the ghostlies might be fake-limited dragons that'll never go out of season. Starwing and Glowwing were introduced almost 2 years ago and they have had the green hourglass symbol all this time.

You can clone them from friends, that's how I've gotten almost all of mine. Getting them with the breeding combos, especially the rarer and new ones, is close to impossible from my own experience. Cloning is significantly easier (though not easy, of course). Also keep in mind that the Halloween ghostly dragons never left the game, they have been available to breed past their event and into the next. Given that, I assume the new ones will be available for months past this event ending.
I'm down to needing just 4 more ghostly dragons and then I'm done. And I have just enough berries to buy all 4 too if I can't clone/breed them in the next couple days.
What is everyone’s opinion on selling the decorations ( arc lights, mugs etc) ? I would like to sell them and use the iceberries to buy a couple ghostlies that im missing.

The reasons for keeping the decorations: 1. You're a completionist. You need everything in game. 2. You've only evolved one dragon with a particular decoration set, and may want to evolve a second. 3. You've only evolved a normal version and might want to evolve a rift version someday. 4. You might want to evolve a twin version of the dragon someday, rather than cloning a twin directly. I wish I had kept more of my normal twin coal/gifts, I cleared them from my social menu without thinking and could have gotten non rift twin versions easily. 5. You like a particular decoration and want them in your park.

How does one evolve a twin? I don't believe I am aware of this.
If you evolve a normal Coal dragon to an Avarice, you get a normal Avarice dragon. If you evolve a rift Coal dragon to an Avarice, you get a rift Avarice of them same element. Now if you have a twin Coal or a twin rift Coal and you evolve that dragon to an Avarice, you get a twin/rift twin Avarice.
Now during this event we were given so many coal and gift dragons from friends on double days that you may have a large stash of Twin Rift Coal/Gift dragons in your social menu. For my evolutions, I used these and got two of each dragon - both twin rift versions. I then bred those together in the rift to get a rift version, rift egg and then bred them outside the rift to get a normal version and normal egg. All I was missing in the end was a twin rift egg and twin normal dragon/egg.
If I had extra twin coal and gift dragons outside the rift, I could spend another 1000 berries and get twin dragons too by evolving them. Sadly I wasn't thinking and sold off most of my extra twin gift/coal dragons outside the rift.

Does anyone know why we are still being inundated w twin rift coals gifts regifts and trinkets? Are they the bases for new ghostly evolutions? If so, as I’m not doing ghostlies, and have sufficient of the new ornamental evolution dragons, I can sell them? For more berries that I don’t need because I have... etc I don’t understand bfs in this event at all. It’s like, ooops we’ve been Scrooge’s, better throw everything at em to keep em sweet... Colour me confused (quelle surprise😂)

Most likely they're thinking about players who have only 1-2 active friends, who may still be needing more coal and gift dragons to evolve 10 (or 20) dragons for the event and who may also want some twins of each to save too. They may not even have enough yet.
For those of us with 6-7 trading partners, and perhaps several alts sending gems too, we're working outside the norm and getting way more than expected. I'm going to sell them all off for Etherium once the event ends.
I got lucky with the daily logon mystery egg... Corrupticorn. As I bought the pedestal back during the Halloween event, I guess I don't really need to spend 1000s of gems getting the decorations and evolving a Chromacorn (which I finally managed to breed a 2nd one of too).
OMG .. so jealous (but yay! ) .. I could not breed a second Chromacorn for the life of me. I even went up to 10K breeds in the rift to try to get it. I usually never go above 2500. Oh second Chromacorn, why do you elude me?

I have a darkling on a bingo card. The dragonarium says they are unavailable; can I breed one? I have been trying for two days.
Hmmm its still BeB afaik, so Darkling is available seems to be another glitch in drow ’s sandbox atm, cos I can’t get it bring up options under find parent, for D either, or actually anything else, and this time the sandbox entries are glitching too, with some dragons not displaying in the pairing results screen, just their name; so it’s probably having a wee rest 🤣 a good backup app, imo, to download is the next flow’s DragonBreed that is giving breeding options
and you’ve got another option through Dragonvale Wiki sandbox 🐨🐨

My park said that BeB ended on Monday with the double ice berries. I was trying to buy decorations from Om of Nom event when they cleaned up doubles. Sure enough when it reloaded they are no longer available. There was a countdown to the end in the social news section. I was left needing a Nether on my Bingo Card and four days until it resets. All you can do is try to clone it from another or a friend, pay the diamonds to clear the card, or wait for reset.

Well, like Cyn said: It’s a marathon, not a sprint. Yesterday, I got ALL 100 decorations and today evolved the Coals & Gifts that I so wisely stocked up on before the Event began. Now, I realize that it might not be such a big deal, but I did it, true to my word, without spending 1 RED CENT!
When this event started I was nearly bereft of Gems from the last 2 Events...I had a little over 800. I thought there was no way I could get all 100 Decorations, let alone Evolve 10 of them. For almost the entire event, I did nothing but save up assets (Gems & Iceberries namely) and did the regular Dragon Drops only, every 12 hrs., none of the other games. It was great practice for Dropping for the Chests. I was able to get the highest value prize about once out of every 3.75 Drop attempts. I made a rough calculation that said that when I got to 1,200 Gems, I could Dragon Drop enough Chests to get around 70% of the Decorations I would need and generate enough Iceberries from Duplicates and Misses (along with those generated from other activities like Bingo Cards etc.) to buy the remainder of the needed Chests and still have enough Iceberries to evolve all 10 of them.
Before I even started DragonDropping for Chests, I had collected 13 Deco/Chests from various means. I began DragonDropping with about 1,280 Gems. As I progressed, I noticed that the more non-Duplicate Decos I got, the more Duplicates I got...but of course! At first this annoyed the heck out of me but then I realized “Hey, every Dupe is 50 iceberries.”, and every Chest I missed still gave me Iceberries. When I got to where I needed only 31 more Decos I was down to 145 Gems but I had over 60,000 Iceberries...GAME OVER! I bought the remaining Chest/Decos (they were guaranteed to be ones you needed). I carefully Evolved the Coals & Gifts and Voila, I’m BURNING again (minus 17 Ghostlies).
After almost quitting DV, I came up with this vague plan, stuck with it and achieved the goal. Like what Adm. Painter told Jack Ryan in ‘The Hunt For The Red October’: “The Russians don’t take a dump, son, without a plan.”...for every problem you need a plan.
Oh yes, a cautionary note here...when you are buying Guaranteed Deco/Chests, do the following for each Chest/Deco one-at-a-time: Buy the Chest, Open it, and immediately put the Deco onto an island. DO NOT allow the Deco to remain in your Social/Gifts. It seems that DV doesn’t realize that you have a specific Deco until it is actually placed on an Island. A friend of mine was buying Guaranteed Chests but leaving them in her Social/Gifts and not putting them on an Island right away...after a while, she got a Dup Deco and was very POed.
I need a Rift Dazzling so I can attempt a Rift Starshine.
awwww that stinks. I’m trying to get one (non rifted) using viraglace + starshine but since you don’t have a starshine yet.... I guess just use a rift liberito or something 🤷♀️

Thanks Lisgie, if my park got a notification, I totally missed it 🤣 barely keeping up with everything these days, tending to blur out, so need these sharp eyes 🤗
My event strategy was to focus on gettting the dragons, pedestals and habitats (if I need them). In this event I spent a lot of berries buying chests to get the doodads for evolving the ornamental dragons. I also bought two ornamental habitats. At this point it looks like I’ll have enough iceberries to get the Ghost dragons that I haven’t been able to breed, as well as the ornamental pedestals I’m missing. If I have any leftover after that I’ll get what decorations I can for this event. Otherwise I’ll pickup the decorations during the next BEB.
I’m not on Facebook so I don’t have a big selection to breed with in the coop. So I really don’t want to have to try to get missing dragons or pedestals during BEB. I’m not collecting the Ghostly pedestals, BTW.
I got two of the 4-day donation events....arrrgh.... I suffered through the first one. The second one I finished what I could over two days and then bought out the completion. That made sense to me because playing the bingo card was my best source for iceberries. It didn’t make economical sense for me to have that source shut down for another two days. I used the rift to do almost all my bingo breeding.
I’m waiting until the last day then will buy as many ghostlies and pedestals that I can that I haven’t been able to breed thus far. I have everything else.

I'm not doing the ghost collection and finally decided to buy a few more starshine and twinkle dragons for the extra dc they will bring - which means more treats I can grow. 🐨🐨🐨🐨
