The DragonVale team at Deca Games would like to receive feedback from players regarding their new event dragons. To capture an accurate account of our players’ assessments and responses, Rate a Dragon feedback threads will be created for each new dragon approximately one to four weeks after its release. This will allow players some time to breed the dragons and admire their fine qualities.
The Rate a Dragon threads will remain unlocked until the event concludes on 4 August. At the end of the event, your feedback will be passed on to Deca.
Please take a minute to rate the dragons from 1-5 for each category. You can either post your feedback on this thread, or message me. Thank you for participating, sharing your opinions, and making this game even better than it was yesterday.
🦋 All winners of The Spoiler Contest will have the birds, butterflies, and bees on my mini profile added to their profile for a month! 🐝
🌟 And the winner of the Forum’s new game, Name That Egg will have the falling stars added to their post background for a month! 💫
The Rate a Dragons threads have brought a new awards feature to the Forum. This is our way of thanking players for taking the time and providing their valuable feedback.
Here’s a description of the awards and how to obtain them
1. Jolly Roger Dragon: rate all the Pirates in Paradise dragons on their Rate a Dragon threads before the event concludes.
2. Lucky Koala: rate all the dragons on their Rate a Dragon threads for two consecutive events.
AWARD RULES
1. You must be a member to receive an award because ProBoards does not retain guest profiles.
2. Awards will display on your Profile page and mini-profile. To see the awards, you’ll need to view the Forum in its desktop version since the mobile version does not support many features, including the mini-profile and plugins.
3. Awards will be permanent, but if you do not want them or would like them removed, just let me know.
4. If you prefer to not publicly post, you can message me your dragon ratings. Be sure to send it before the event concludes. You will still be awarded the Jolly Roger Dragon and Lucky Koala.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Players will have until Wednesday, August 4th at 11.00 AM MDT to provide their feedback on all Rate a Dragon threads.
If you change your mind about a dragon, you can edit your post, adjust your ratings, and/or add additional comments until August 4th.
Thank you so much for taking the time and providing your feedback. Your input will help Deca in designing their dragons for this beloved game. And you’ll have koalas and dragon flags unfurled forever!
Please rate the Trove dragon on a scale of 1 to 5. (1 = worst, 5 = best)
1. Rate Trove’s animation quality
2. How would you rate Trove’s Rift trait placement and look (the metal trait is showing in the above video)
3. Please rate Trove’s size (you may want to check how Trove compares to other dragons in your park; if you don’t own Trove, check a friend’s park)
4. Rate Trove’s price (13,500 Doubloons)
5. How well does Trove fit the theme of the event?
6. Rate the attention to detail in Trove’s design
7. How much do you like Trove? (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!)
8. Comments/feedback for Deca (OPTIONAL)
The post below is a template you can copy/paste into your reply so it’s easier to rate the dragons. Please be sure to use the template assigned for the dragon, as the questions can vary (sometimes the Rift trait question is omitted).

1. Not a fan of the missing belly part of the animation, but the rest of the animation really makes Trove feel like a rat-dragon. 4/5
2. Trait looks great! I like where the little touches go around the whole dragon. 5/5
3. Decent size for a rat-themed dragon- not too big, and the smaller size makes sense. 5/5
4. A bit pricey! I understand that it's a limited epic dragon, but it's still expensive. 3/5
5. It's the stowaway! I love that DECA came up with something not immediately recognizable as "pirate" that still really worked in the theme! 5/5
6. This dragon initially rubbed me the wrong way, but I've grown to love Trove and his perfect blend between rat and dragon. Overall design looks great. 4/5
7. I really do enjoy the cleverness behind the inclusion of this dragon. It's not as elegant as Lazuli or Alure, but it still really fits the theme and is aesthetically interesting. 4/5
8. This dragon is great! I especially love that Trove is getting kicked off the ship in the loading screen art. DECA's designs have been getting better and better as they've handled the reins of DragonVale.

1. Animation quality - 5/5 2. Trait placement - 3/5 (I think it's cool that the cape is traited, but I don't like how it removes the detail of Trove's hair and the furry part of the cape.) 3. Size - 4/5 (I like big dragons more, but Trove's smaller size is fine for what it's based on.) 4. Price - 3/5 5. Thematic accuracy - 5/5 6. Attention to detail - 5/5 7. How much I like it - 3/5 8. I'd like Trove better if it wasn't just a pure treasure element. It doesn't look like a pure treasure dragon; it doesn't even match its habitat that well. If it also had the dark and/or metal elements, that'd be pretty cool.
1. The animation is decent, 3/5 2. The trait placement doesn’t ruin the dragon’s overall design, so it’s pretty good. 4/5 3. The size I feel is fine, nothing needed to change there, 5/5 4. I think it’s safe to say that all of the event limiteds are too expensive, so I’d say 2/5 5. Definitely fits the event theme well, 5/5 6. Detail good, 4/5 7. 2.5/5, I think it’s ok but I feel like other dragons have more appeal. 8. Trove being just treasure element does make sense, but it’s kinda boring. Also, the combo stinks, since it)s 5 elements and also has 2 dragons with essentially 2 day timers. Because of these factors, I think it’s gonna be my 2nd least favorite of the event.
Hey adlerist, is there any chance that in the future you could switch off of the Rift trait at the end of the video so we don't have to load into our parks or go to the wiki for an untraited picture? Just a minor suggestion, but it could make the process a bit faster on the participant end.

1. Perfect for a rat dragon, but don't like when its stomach gets fatter from eating the treasure and breathing out coins. Also, it's anatomically incorrect according to my standards. 4/5
2. Looks great. Dark amps up the sinister thieving aspect of Trove and Plant makes it look like a Gremlin. I want to rate 6/5 for Plant and Dark trait, but due to the rating limit, it's a 5/5 instead.
3. Compared my lvl 10 Trove to my Lvl 20 Party and then a Lvl 20 Trove. Should be smaller to hide better. 3/5
4. If they are going to make the combo very hard, at least lower the price. 2/5
5. Bandits/Stowaway? Yes. Pirate Rivals? Yes. Rats? I guess so, since they were displayed as pirate in Reader Rabbit games. I think? 5/5
6. Nasty Rat while also designed to look like a thief/bandit. 5/5
1. Animation 5/5 I like the starving, scrawny, no-belly phase
2. Rift trait 5/5
3. Size (if you don’t own Trove, please check a friend’s park) 5/5
4. Price (13,500 Doubloons) 5/5
5. How well does Trove fit the theme: so perfect! 5/5
6. Design details: 5/5
7. How much do you like Trove? he's not pretty, but so much character and personality 5/5
8. Comments/feedback for Deca (optional): I don't want all the dragons to be nice and cute or pretty, I am really happy with this one, especially since the design fits the story and theme so well
1. 2 - nothing special 2. 3 - Didn't manage a rift version, seems OK from image provided 3. 4 4. 4 - OK price for this point in event for a limited 5. 4 - Fits pirate theme well 6. 4 7. 3 - I don't like it much (it looks sickly)
Trove 1. 5/5 You’re a sneaky little thing Trove, we see you! (& I love it’s full belly) 2. 5/5 Just the right amount of added colour. Didn’t get one of course. 3. 5/5 Perfect size for a ship’s rat. 4. 3/5 Difficult to breed so too expensive. 5. 5/5 A rat on a pirate ship - top marks. 6. 5/5 It’s clearly both a rat & a dragon. 7. 5/5 As perfectly described by DragonMoonX he’s a ‘scrawny diseased’ rat & I love him (or her!)

TROVE DRAGON
1. Animation 5
2. Rift trait 5
3. Size 5
4. Price (13,500 Doubloons) 4
5. How well does Trove fit the theme 5
6. Design details 5
7. How much do you like Trove? 5
8. Comments/feedback for Deca (optional) I think when the price of dragons is high and they are so hard to breed, we should be able to earn extra currency
Hey adlerist , is there any chance that in the future you could switch off of the Rift trait at the end of the video so we don't have to load into our parks or go to the wiki for an untraited picture? Just a minor suggestion, but it could make the process a bit faster on the participant end.
I’ll consider it. If it isn’t jarring to switch to the untraited version, I may. The purpose of the video is to show the animation, and I add the trait since Deca has a question about it, and not everyone has a traited version. I always post an image of the dragon on the event thread when it’s released, so I can add a link to that post if players want to see the regular version.

Oh, that's fine. I think linking to the other post sounds great too. And it's really fine the way it is, so no matter what you decide, it'll work well!

1. Animation - 4 (Gives off perfect gremlin energy. Not a fan of the box though) 2. Trait - 4 (Metal trait fits! Earth trait'll likely look...uncomfortable.) 3. Size - 5 4. Price - 3 5. Thematic accuracy - 5 6. Attention to detail - 4 (The blue and grey don't mesh. Otherwise, a very good critter) 6. How much I like it - 4(I still like it a lot, and it's really cool that Deca chose Worms' submerged dragon to implement, I just think it looks plainer and more compressed compared to the original.)
