We’ve reached the end of our camping trip Into the Wild. As we roll up the sleeping bag and pack up the tent, take a moment to reflect on the WILDERNESS, and provide your thoughts below.
The Rate a Dragon threads will remain unlocked until the event concludes on 15 September. At the end of the event, your feedback will be passed on to Deca.
Awards for the Rate a Dragon threads will be added to your profile by 15 September.

The concept for the Wilderness dragon was created by the endlessly imaginative xDragonLoverx for Deca’s Community Design Contest. The following is the original entry for the Navigation Dragon
Here’s a wonderful comparison of DragonLover’s Navigation Dragon and Deca’s Wilderness Dragon

Please rate the Wilderness dragon on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 = worst, 5 = best)
(The above image shows the day and night versions of the Wilderness dragon)
1. Rate Wilderness’s animation quality
Since much of Wilderness’s animation occurs off-screen, here’s another video of Wilderness at the Cooperative Breeding Cave. He howls fire bubbles! (Note: in this video, Wilderness has the dark trait)
2. How would you rate Wilderness’s Rift trait placement and look (the light and dark traits are showing in the above videos)
3. Rate Wilderness’s size (you may want to check how Wilderness compares to other dragons in your park; if you don’t own Wilderness, please check a friend’s park)
4. Rate Wilderness’s price (16,500 Pinecones)
5. How well does Wilderness fit the theme of the event?
6. Rate the attention to detail in Wilderness’s design
7. How much do you like Wilderness? (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 dragon. Please be sure to use the template assigned for the dragon, as the questions may vary.

Wilderness 1. 5 2. 5 3. 4 4. 3 5. 5 6. 5 7. 5 8. Love this dragon! From the day/night version, to the mushrooms on its back and tail, and all the “accessories/supplies” it brings to camp. 😁
1. Good, but at this point, I feel the animation are being taken way too far. They even started to go off-screen and feel like more of something Dragon City animates their dragons. My game been kicking me out often since acquiring this guy in my park I believe. 4.5/5
2. One step closer to becoming another traited Bog. 5/5
3. Just right. 5/5
4. I'll give it a pass this time. Since this is the final limited dragon. 4/5
5. No brainer. 5/5
6. I didn't expect this to be based on DragonLover's Navigation Dragon. Other than the wings displaying maps, there's nothing similar between the two other than bodyshape. Let alone be dramatically different themes. Which also look similar to Fuefuego. Otherwise, perfectly for anything that you can find while going into the wild. 5/5
7. Better than Ikatako for me. 5/5
8. The elements and the combo. Just Moon? Really? After all these rare with high earning rates that serve no purpose outside of Colosseum use. We just went back to only one epic element? Might as well make it Moon/Plant/Dark/Fire or even Sun and Moon since it has Day and Night forms for some reason.
Also, another yet locked combo that screams "You must own this cool dragon in order to get this one." It could very well be just NightBloom + Fire. Or Moon+ Plant+ Dark+Fire. Why Seraph? Because it looks like a campfire? I expected something really holy from that locked combo. What's next? A dragon that needs Quintessence?

1. Animation= 4.5 I find his firestarting potential a bit disturbing, knowing someone severely burned when her tent caught fire, and when his woodpile is behind the tree, well, he's starting a forest fire, not a happy idea these days
2. Rift trait = 5
3. Size (if you don’t own Wilderness, please check a friend’s park)= 5
4. Price (16,500 Pinecones)= 5
5. How well does Wilderness fit the theme= 5 so perfect!
6. Design details = 5
7. How much do you like Wilderness (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) = 5
8. He looks great, I am a sucker for starry wings, but I love the original topo map and compass concept and hope Deca will use it in a future dragon
1. Animation does feel a bit overdone with the amount of space it takes up. It's well done but perhaps a bit too much. 4/5
2. I like the trait placement! 5/5
3. Nice size that fits the dragon fairly well. 5/5
4. Far too expensive but at least it's an epic this time? 3/5
5. Perfectly fits the theme- camping out in the wilderness. 5/5
6. I like all of the little details included, like the mushrooms and the changing wings. I do wish DECA had kept the constellations and compasses but the dragon is quite nice. 5/5
7. I really do like this dragon, and I've truly loved almost all of the dragons in this event. Keep up the great work! 5/5

1. Animation 5/5 Thanks once again for the extra video adlerist ! Otherwise we would’ve missed all of the animation and had nothing to rate lol!
2. Rift trait 4/5 It’s better there isn’t a lot of trait coloring with this dragon
3. Size (if you don’t own Wilderness, please check a friend’s park) 5/5
4. Price (16,500 Pinecones) 4/5
5. How well does Wilderness fit the theme 5/5
6. Design details 5/5
7. How much do you like Wilderness (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) 5/5
8. Comments/feedback for Deca (optional) It would be nice if the animation fit the screen or the location like the Dragonarium, the breeding cave or the habitat. There’s a lot of dragons like Burrow, Wilderness, Yarr, and so on that have animation that’s really far away from its location so it looks strange, but I do really like all the extra work DECA has put into the animation, you’re doing a great job!
I love the flames, sticks and leaves on The Wilderness dragon. It doesn’t look like the Navigation dragon tho. But I get that the concept of the Navigation dragon was used not so much the image which is really different than the other player-dragons so far. I like that DECA is willing to use concepts too that gives a lot more options for player-dragons.

LOLOLLL! What does Ikatako have to do with it? That’s so funny, you must have something against Ikatako or its popularity. 😂 It’s like saying “Better than Monte for me.” Totally different dragons from different events. 😂 I like your review (even tho I don’t agree with the Ikatako part) so don’t get me wrong, I just thought that sentence was hilarious.

Keep Ikatako out of it. He’s too octoadorable for criticism.

2. Rift trait - 5/5 gorgeous
3. Size - 5/5 no problems here
4. Price (16,500 Pinecones)- 3 /5 pricey; but he is GORGEOUS ! Sooo glad i did not have to buy him!
5. How well does Wilderness fit the theme - 5/5 spot-on perfect for the theme.
6. Design details- 5/5 I love this dragon! Love the colors also, was a bit tired of orange/tan/red
7. How much do you like Wilderness 5/5 I LOVE ❤️ this guy! My fav of the event dragons !
8. Comments/feedback for Deca (optional); I enjoyed the event. Was fairly laid-back & relaxing for me except for when i was sick but that was not DECA’s fault. Think DECA is doing a fabulous job running DV ! LOVE that they care what the players think/feel. I give DECA a 5/5 ! 👍🏻👏🏻

1. Animation is good, 5/5 2. Rift trait is very nice, 5/5 3. I feel like the size could be a bit bigger, 4/5 4. Kinda pricey, I feel like it’d be better if it was around 15k, 3/5 5. Wilderness, camping, perfection, 5/5 6. I enjoy the design of this dragon a lot! 5/5. You guys hit it out of the ballpark on this one 7. 4/5 I had to buy it, but it is a very nice dragon with parts that make up for it. 8. DECA, you guys did good for this dragon! Although the price still is large, the overall appear of this dragon makes up for it! It didn’t feel like a pain like PiP, and that’s a really nice thing. Good job guys!

WILDERNESS DRAGON
1. Animation: 5/5
2. Rift trait: 4/5, I feel like it'd be very cool if the fire on its head was traited too.
3. Size: 5/5
4. Price (16,500 Pinecones): 3/5
5. How well does Wilderness fit the theme: 5/5
6. Design details: 5/5
7. How much do you like Wilderness: 4/5
8. Comments/feedback for Deca: It's awesome having a fan-inspired dragon end off the event. I'm kind of disappointed that Wilderness is just a pure Moon-element dragon; Wilderness feels like it could have a lot more elements than just Moon. Nonetheless, Wilderness is a fantastic extrapolation of DragonLover's original design, and the improvement Deca has made on their animations is astounding.
Wilderness 1. 5/5 Fab animation again. Wilderness is one busy dragon! 2. 4/5 Bit subtle but nice enough. 3. 5/5 Just the right size. 4. 2/5 Too much. 5. 5/5 Perfect fit, what a handy dragon to have around the campsite. All these event dragons have linked the theme together really well, except Aperture which I still don’t get (although maybe it helps to put the fires out). 6. 4/5 Nice details & like the night/day differences. I wish you could swap versions without changing the whole theme (although I guess that defeats the object). 7. 4/5 I like it better than Ikatako too 😉🤣
