Has anyone bred a rifted Hyperion yet? I have been tying since it came out up to 10,000 etherium (15,000 sometimes) in my two parks and no luck so far. I have the regular and twin versions and the pedestal but the rifted one is really eluding me.
I’ve bred a traited Hyperion. Both Fury and Narcis were at level 20. It took about a week breeding 16 times a day (up to 15,000 Etherium). But other members on this thread bred Hyperion in the Rift a lot faster. I’m trying for a second traited Hyperion and the traited pedestal.

I bred a traited Hyperion in one park relatively quickly, but the other park cannot breed one despite a week of using all Rift breeds for one. Haven't even managed to breed a normal one in the rift in this time, but have cloned many Fury and Narcis dragons.

Hyperion’s 700 hours is coming to a close. He will be departing in a mere 12 hours…
G’luck to all who are trying to breed Hyperion in the 11th hour of the last 12 hours!
Hyperion has the longest breeding time — even at the Runic Breeding Caves, with breeding times reduced by 75%, it is still ridiculously long.
(After Hyperion expires, this thread will return to DV Progress and Achievements so players can keep us updated on all their DV goals.)

I wish I may / I wish I might / have a freaking Hyperion already... (No luck breeding it and I think I've only used one wish before, so got a bit of a backlog. Now where the heck did I put that Wishing Well...)
In the past I had always been very strict with myself about buying dragons. I never do it unless it’s the finally hours and have event currency to use. I’ve never bought a dragon or pedestal with gems before, or a wish.
Luckily, Within hours of it expiring, I was able to finally breed a Hyperion 😅 then I splurged and bought the pedestal with gems 😳, but that’s okay 👍🏻
Instead of waiting until the end of the event, I also went ahead and purchased Triple Rainbow and the ped with event currency, also okay 👍🏻
Just now, I bred a Fae in the rift, yay, and in the excitement, went ahead and bought the ped with currency.
Now, I have fire again! 🎉 🔥 🎉 🔥 🎉
And I have ALL THE PEDISTALS !! I’ve never had a golden pedestal bar before. ☺️ Yay me 😆

Congratulations on your Golden Pedestals, LynnMarie!
That is a huge accomplishment! And I love the pedestal mini buying spree you went on! Sometimes it’s just not worth the trouble of breeding the dragon when the pedestal is right there and so inexpensive.

I was looking through the Egg History, on the breeding caves, seeing how many Ponkipongs I’ve gotten and sold, 7 so far, not counting the rift, and still no twin. 😩
While perusing the many eggs, I noticed quite a lot well over 100 and a few over 200 also. So….
I have bred 14,141 dragons, am assuming this does not count the rift since there is no Egg History tab there and I’m also not sure if this is a day one count. Like if the egg history button has always been there.
My most common fail has been the Forest dragon coming in at 227, with Moss a close second at 224 😳
What about you, my fellow Valers? What is your highest dragon breed/fail??

Oh how fun! According to my cave egg stats, I have bred 14,929 eggs but 3,879 of those are plants 😅. I goes I must’ve done some serious speed breeding for a few events, back in the day! The next highest is 172 poison eggs.

I am proud of myself. When I restarted, 5 years after I quit, I think I was at a level in the 70s. Today I finally got to 170. Many thanks to all my new friends.

I’m going to call this an achievement… earlier this event, I maxed out my habitats! I including the four extra slots I bought with gems back when I was in a pinch.
I’ve gotten a few back by buying some event habitats to replace current ones but I’m going to max out again in a day or two!

Are you ready to go stumbling down memory lane?
Ten years ago today, on June 19, 2012, Backflip Studios was recognised on 9News Denver, as one of '50 Colorado Companies to Watch'. In the coverage, there was this shot of some early dragon designs!
By the way, this is my new vision board.
Can you name all the dragons in the image?

This is really interesting. Amazing to think that DragonVale is still around, but Backflip Studios is not. Is it bad that I can't immediately name all of the dragons? The more I look at the picture, the more dragons I can identify. The almost invisible one at the bottom in the middle of the board is a mystery. 😊

It's an 8 x 8 grid of the elements and their hybrids, so that should help you out. Back before Light and Dark, and when Earth was the second element, not Fire. I don't think Malachite had been released yet, so there was lots of speculation about that one at the time.
Edit: Evergreen was another unreleased dragon at the time. The good old days ...
"I don't understand the desire to obtain all the decorations, or collect twins and traits, or collect one of every dragon, or the desire to get a dragon in every stage from baby to adult then have all of them on display. Even when I had a device with less RAM, I never thought about those things. I actually bred two traited Stygian in the Rift during this event and released both of them because I already have one and I don't collect traited dragons (I know somebody out there is going to hate me for that)." (DragonMoonX)
Hello DragonMoonX. Samiam already summed up the economic aspect on how DV works and who it's appealing to.
I used to be a collector myself, but I've calmed down. However, I do approach DV from a bit of an artsy perspective still. I don't need all decorations and I don't have all displayed, no. For example, all my circus themed stuff is in the tower and was only purchased during the extravaganza. I didn't feel like spending any event currency on it. I don't like these dragons as much. I skipped the last circus-esque event altogether.
I'm not impatient, either. I plan very carefully which islands will go toward what content. But, I do plan and wait.
It's all about park design and what looks good to me. That means dragons who don't need a whole island (olympus, dream) are prone to get them anyway for the aesthetic. Empty slots are available to twins. I'm confortable with empty space however as well.
My park is planned well and I don't need anymore slots for dragons. Currently. If they released another new dragon type, I could also house it. I still want land. The lack of land makes me feel like I'm not really developing or porgressing in the game. I compensate by being ridiculously picky until I'm "finished" with an island but that's, well... not necessarily a good thing. I'd be happier with more space, so I want more space. Just to be less hard on myself on whether I made perfect use of /everything/.
(Also please keep in mind that the oversized islands are additionally extremely important to decorators because they don't have the normal restrictions! You'd be surprised what marvels float out there. Many people just use them for display slots or pedestals, true. It's not what makes them super special, though.
DV does not have a very good model to make money. This has always worried me. DECA is doing better, but there's still so many flaws. I already complained about that once already in detail, though.
The point is, DV is a game driven on a sense of progress, and you can spend money to make up for missed time. You wouldn't know if you aren't very familiar with the mobile game market, but DV's generosity to people who don't pay is near unparalleled. It's an absolute anomaly.
So, they put players under constant pressure to make off time seductive. My problem with that is that the very expensive "monthly pass" dragons available are a) too expensive and b) unrifted, hence near absolutely useless statistically for breeding. Having to buy them feels like a punishment since you're passing up future breeding opportunities. This is, frankly, extremely stupid.
Another "extremely stupid" is the land shortage. With plenty land available, people want to build, want to be online. There's optimism towards new realeases and not... dread. The land shortage can be excused because of lag, yes. However, there are options to save RAM use without having a small park. I've personally found them extremely effective. DECA could fix it even more by implementing tricks such as "animated items stop moving when you're not looking at them". Auto disabling crows on dragons. Disabling all movement, but letting you keep the decorations. Fixing whatever is horribly wrong with the rift. Etc.
DECA has options and giving us no more land is one with logic behind it, but also possibly the worst one.
T H E S U P E R E X P A N S I O N Everything is Expanding!
In the past, with Backflip’s Rift Expansion, there was a lot of anger and backlash when prices were increased and players were caught off guard. So, I asked Deca if they’d be willing to share this information in advance. They have kindly done this.
Knowing that the mystery egg caps and breeding prices are going to increase will prepare players. You can now strategise and either spend as much of your Etherium before 8 September on mystery eggs, or save it for the expansion. You also know there will be 20 new Rift islands and more Miasmic Ether to clear, so keep that cost in mind too.
Thank you Deca Games for sharing the inflation in advance so we can plan. Many cheers!

God, I'm glad for the other stuff, but my rift already can barely run from all the lag and I spend all my currency 😭
Can I beg for an option to disable animation of rift traits? If I get 20 more, I'm sure my park will just crash every time I attempt to breed or buy an egg. It's already close too often
That's just increased egg cost for me and nothing else unless I want to play with fire
