adlerist , the new version of Eggy Hatchy is WAY more difficult than original. I used to complete the 1st level and 2 of 3 2nd levels getting Iceberries on all 5 tickets on my first try. Then on 2 or 3 more attempts, I might complete level 4. Twice I completed level 5. Today, on my first try, I completed only 2 1st levels on 5 tickets.
They took away ‘Farming’ and now this. They’ve pushed me to to edge of simply ‘packing it in’. I did it with 2 golf games I had played for years. HASBRO almost did it to me. And now DECA... Little by little, they continue to require real $$$ to succeed in this game. I quit contributing after HASBRO made it bad. When DECA took over, I started spending in appreciation for some of the things I thought improved. This latest modification greatly reduces the ability of collecting of IceBerries (Event $). I’m not gonna play their game, both literally and figuratively. If you combine this ‘money grab’ with the Crashes & Bugs which continue to occur whenever anything new is implemented, it is easy to see one’s disgust. If things don’t change, for the better, and soon, I’m gone.
I hope you will relay this utter dissatisfaction to DECA.
I’ll definitely let them know you’re unhappy with the new Eggy changes. You may to email them as well.

The DV Facebook players have located the latest quests for Yeti...
... and Angler!
Added to first page (quest are not on wiki yet, but they’ve been notified, so it should be showing soon)
Only one quest left to get and the list will be up to date again. Hopefully the FaceBook community can discover Ketu's quest as well.
With what is happening in the world, couldn't Deca have come up with a better quest name for Angler?
It seemed odd that Ketu’s quest had eluded so many players for so long, so I checked and it appears it’s quest is incorrectly flagged, preventing it from showing in the game. It’s similar to the issue with Clairvoyant, Dash, Riptide, and Hanno that Quil first identified. Cheers, Quil!
I’ve informed Deca, and hopefully Ketu’s quest will be released soon.

I think you have to play the new hatchy differently. Instead of doing level 1 across the board, then moving to 2, try starting with the tower on the far left first. Do all 5 levels with your first 5 tickets, which will be extremely easy. Then hit up the middle tower a few hours later. Save the right one for the end, just like we'd save the top floors for the final tickets in the prior version.
In the end, if you clear the towers then you get the same total score, that has not changed. We have a couple more easy levels that we didn't before, which will help players who didn't push higher levels. But for players who cleared all 3 towers every day (like me), it appears to be a bit harder now. There are 5 'tough' levels instead of 3. Then again, I often had more trouble with floor 4 than I did with floor 5 in the old version for whatever reason.
Eggy 'Noggy' is shiny and new with levels optimised for Beginner, Novice, and Grandmaster!
The new levels offer higher rewards for the more difficult levels. Are you a Grandmaster?
Give it an Eggy go throughout the day and please let me know what you think. I will pass on your feedback and together we’ll all get Eggy into tip-top ovo-shape.
I played Eggy Hatchy 5 times on 3 different parks. Grandmaster is really tough lol! If I play A LOT I think could finish the tower.
I will compare the before and after Eggy Hatchy based on my busy days when I can only play 2x or 3x a day. Before I was always able to finish the first 3 levels without playing too much because those levels were pretty easy. That would get me 240 iceberries.
The way it is now I’ll be able to finish all 5 beginner levels and 5 of the novice levels which will get me 310 iceberries. Even if I don’t get the last novice level which is a little harder and I think pays more I’ll get 260 iceberries. Can you confirm for me that the amount of iceberries don’t increase for the Beginner and Novice towers? Those are the ones people are going to complete the most and are most interested in.
I don’t see too much of a change for people who play like I do. For people who like to finish all the towers they might not like it because grandmaster will make it harder. I’m usually in a hurry so it’s nice to able to finish a lot of easy and medium levels but we were able to do that before so this isn’t a big change for me.
I think what would be helpful is to make it easier for more epic eggs to show up in the harder levels and to have the twin power ups show in better place so we can use them more. I know it’s random so that can’t be helped but maybe they could tweak it.
To summarize since I didn’t mean to write so much lol, it’s not a huge change for me. For the grandmaster levels you have to get lucky so give more epic eggs. I really like that DECA is making tweaks to Eggy Hatchy and trying to improve it that’s really cool so thanks to them for working on it!

The Beginner tower offers 20 iceberries for each level. The Novice tower is 40 at levels 1-4, and 50 iceberries at level 5.
Thank you for your detailed feedback! I agree, more epic eggs for the difficult levels would help a lot. If the Twin Power Ups were located in the middle of the board, than would be more useful than the edge. I try to clear the centre squares first, but it doesn’t seem to make a huge difference.

In addition to what others have said, the social menu has a timer for the new eggy-hatchy. This is not a permanent change. It also eliminates work for Fletch_smf because it is obvious which order to do the towers in. Just a change in strategy and how you do the game. A change to perspective, which is a good thing to alleviate boredom with the game.

I don’t mind the change to Eggy Hatchy. It’s not any harder than it was before. All they did was move the levels around so all the easy ones are in one tower and the medium ones in another and the difficult ones in another. The levels themselves aren’t any different or harder.
More epic eggs would be good since we have a tower of difficult levels but I have a feeling they’re not going to make it too easy otherwise it wouldn’t be called Grandmaster. But they could give us a couple more epic eggs 😊 The power ups could use some adjusting too but in general I’m fine with the changes because it’s really the same thing just organized differently.

i like what u say here a lot! this is good explaining. need epic eggs & more twins. i really like to have more same eggs by each other to get 3 eggs. it helps so much on med & hard boards! i hope that make sense not sure how to say it. ty!! the change is fine not to different. there is 2 more boards that are harder but we get more berries. it takes about 2-3 plays to finish 1 board. can they make it less w epic eggs & twins & same eggs? that will help a lot!

Here are some comparisons between the towers we have had for Eggy Hatchy during this event and the new Eggy Hatchy format.
Previously, the three towers would give you 200 magic per tower - 3 towers = 600 magic per day if you completed them all.
Now, Beginner gives you 100, Novice gives you 210, Grandmaster gives you 320 - a grand sum of 630 for all three towers.
Earlier in the event, the first two levels of Eggy Hatchy were 3x3 grids and only required points - Level 1 gave 20 magic, Level 2 gave 30 magic - 50 magic per tower x 3 = 150 'easy' magic. Of the twenty towers over the event, an additional five also gave 3x3 grids at Level 3 only requiring points and gave 30 magic. The days these towers appeared there was 180 'easy' magic.
Another change is the Novice and Grandmaster towers have had the unlock level points bumped significantly which makes it harder to access the higher levels.
Have Deca changed the breeding odds as well? I have played 4 levels of both Novice and Grandmaster and only successfully completed one level of each. I seem to get enough points with the eggs, but I cannot get the elements to 'stick'. Or have I just been incredibly unlucky?

Now, Beginner gives you 100, Novice gives you 210, Grandmaster gives you 240 up to Level 4 (don't have level 5 yet) - that's 550 - if I assume that Grandmaster only gives you 60 for the last level, that a grand sum of 610 for all three towers.

for me it is opposite i get the elements but not enough points cause i need an epic so i dont finish level. i think we are unlucky in different ways! i have finish med. tower so i dont think odds were changed but i needed to do a board a couple times. i like i can skip a level if i have higher one unlock & know it wont be harder cause they are the same in tower.

adlerist , the new version of Eggy Hatchy is WAY more difficult than original. I used to complete the 1st level and 2 of 3 2nd levels getting Iceberries on all 5 tickets on my first try. Then on 2 or 3 more attempts, I might complete level 4. Twice I completed level 5. Today, on my first try, I completed only 2 1st levels on 5 tickets.
They took away ‘Farming’ and now this. They’ve pushed me to to edge of simply ‘packing it in’. I did it with 2 golf games I had played for years. HASBRO almost did it to me. And now DECA...

Dragonvale is completely fine, they're just moving from "you can get literally everything in this event" to "almost anything". Which... 6/7 dragons is still a lot. If you're farming day in, day out instead of having fun you'll ruin any game
After playing it more, I’m not liking the hatch change either. I’m finding the novice tower to be too hard compared to what we had before. Novice and grandmaster are basically the same difficulty, they require you to spend most of the board completing element goals, and then have major luck with golden hybrids and a rare epic. 20k and 28k are the same for me. I either get under 10k or 40k+ when doing a level.

I normally play 2, maybe 3 times a day. I didn’t Farm “day in, day out”. I only ‘Farmed’ to get 1,000 Event $ on 2x days...it didn’t take long to get 1,000. Even quicker on 3x days.
So, new Eggy Hatchy apparently. Updated in the last week of an event. That was unexpected.
Sorry to have missed all the conversation. Been in the middle of a 3 day lock down here in Brisbane, and family have finally left this morning to travel home after the Christmas holidays. I guess I'm mainly wondering if the Towers will be identical tomorrow; will be different, but still labelled Beginner, Novice, Grandmaster (in my mind, Grandmistress); or a third option.

I think Deca will keep the Beginner etc levels for the final week to gauge the reaction of the players. If it is not well received, they can make adjustments before the next event - or when Eggy Hatchy appears next.
Hate the change to the egg hatchery. For the Grand Master, trying to get 2 level 5 whatevers, I cleared the whole board trying to get ONE of the element to stick.
Hate hate hate the change (as I normally clear all three towers relatively easily).

since you're ancient, do you mean plant dragon grinding (which is actual farming), or just collecting by playing the game
OK Here's my input. Sign me up as a player who does not like the changes to Eggy Hatchy. I also emailed DECA.
Can you explain why you don’t like it? Only saying you don’t like something doesn’t offer an opportunity to fix it. Constructive criticism is helpful, but if you just don’t like Eggy in general then I completely understand, and not much can really be done.

I played Eggy Hatchy 5 times on 3 different parks. Grandmaster is really tough lol! If I play A LOT I think could finish the tower.
I will compare the before and after Eggy Hatchy based on my busy days when I can only play 2x or 3x a day. Before I was always able to finish the first 3 levels without playing too much because those levels were pretty easy. That would get me 240 iceberries.
The way it is now I’ll be able to finish all 5 beginner levels and 5 of the novice levels which will get me 310 iceberries. Even if I don’t get the last novice level which is a little harder and I think pays more I’ll get 260 iceberries. Can you confirm for me that the amount of iceberries don’t increase for the Beginner and Novice towers? Those are the ones people are going to complete the most and are most interested in.
I don’t see too much of a change for people who play like I do. For people who like to finish all the towers they might not like it because grandmaster will make it harder. I’m usually in a hurry so it’s nice to able to finish a lot of easy and medium levels but we were able to do that before so this isn’t a big change for me.
I think what would be helpful is to make it easier for more epic eggs to show up in the harder levels and to have the twin power ups show in better place so we can use them more. I know it’s random so that can’t be helped but maybe they could tweak it.
To summarize since I didn’t mean to write so much lol, it’s not a huge change for me. For the grandmaster levels you have to get lucky so give more epic eggs. I really like that DECA is making tweaks to Eggy Hatchy and trying to improve it that’s really cool so thanks to them for working on it!

I forgot to mention the same eggs! You’re right we need a lot of those I love them! If there’s more same eggs that are next to each other or in the same row so we can merge them that would make Eggy Hatchy more fun b/c I love seeing them on a new board!
