So perhaps this is information that can't be divulged, but I thought I'd put it out there anyways:
Does anyone (adlerist ?) know if we should expect to get another free runestone as a daily reward during the course of this event? I'm trying to figure out how many I want to buy from the market and don't want to buy too many. I normally just buy a satchel of runestones, but that ends up giving your more runestones than there are caves to activate. I usually do it anyways, but I spent more than usual on DV last year and am trying be more conservative this time around. Thanks in advance!
I do know the answer to this, but it’s probably too spoiler-y to mention. Whenever the Runic Breeding Caves are in the game, I always buy a satchel of Runestones. It’s a great way for me to support the game, since I don’t need other resources. Claiming ten eggs is absolutely fantastic — and I don’t mind extra Runestones.

Do we know if Deca have updated it so second Runestones allow a further claim? It would definitely make the satchel more attractive, I personally went for the three-pack this time

I have suggested this idea to Deca with a limit of 20 claims. I believe it would greatly encourage more purchases. But Deca has not implemented the concept and hasn't given any indication that they will in the future.

The Four Horsemen dragons — absurdly low breeding percentages, and they’re all in locked breeding combos.
Also, Bastion, Djinni, Embossed, Terracotta, Faire, but please check out the Compendium for all the dragons and their breeding percentages.
As if to prove your point, three of the four horsemen are not available for two-parent cloning (mostly because I slept through the end of last Halloween event whoooops)
However, thanks to you, @metaphoricalrobin, and Quil (for the excellent Compendium)
I also appreciate all the RBC guidance and dragon lists. Is there a way to tell when a dragon can be single-parent cloned vs. can only be double-parent cloned? I have the wonderful Google Sheets helper, but this isn’t specified. I’m wondering whether I’m wasting days trying to single-parent clone some dragons.

Evolution dragons require two of the parent you want to be bred, so if you only have one you can Co-Op for another; if you want to clone in the Rift you need two. In addition, it is only in the Rift that you can single parent clone monoliths and snowflakes (due to a bug) so again, you must have at least one to be able to complete their specific requirement (two snowflake/monolith dragons) in Co-Op. If you haven't got any others yet, I'd advise getting Snowflake 7 due to both its horrible odds and the fact it's now a required dragon
Then there's also the fact that you can't breed gem-earning dragons so they can't be cloned, and the fact that no Galaxy dragon can be cloned outside of Co-Op and all Rift-exclusives can only be bred/cloned in the Rift, those these three exceptions are more widely known from what I can see. Lunis, Solis and Rigel are the only Galaxy dragons that can be bred outside of the Co-Op cave, though none can be bred in RBCs due to Rigel being a Rift-exclusive and Lunis/Solis causing bugs with the RBCs. Lunis' combo is galaxy element + Moon dragon, Solis' combo is galaxy element + Sun dragon, and Rigel's combo is any two Galaxy dragons when you have all Galaxy dragons (excluding Rigel obviously) somewhere in your park. (For this reason, besides those three, traited Galaxy dragons can only be obtained via EoM, and cannot be cloned in the Rift.)
The guide also mentions epics, Chrysalis dragons and Ghostlies, though I think those three posts are about hidden elements and how you can breed for the other two throughout the year; as far as I'm aware, they can all be single parent cloned in any cave (unless they fall into one of the categories above and apart from Ghostlies which can't have traits so can't be bred in the Rift).
Edit: as to whether you're wasting time, I have a suggestion. What I did was note down the two hundred-or-so dragons I'm missing, found out which dragons (that I don't have) that they're required for, and then noted down their Co-Op chances. This is the order I listed them:
Higher single parent clone chance before lower
Limited before permanent
then required for multiple before required for one/none
then required for one before not required
then permanent and required
then galaxies (since they can only be bred in Co-Op)
then unrequired permanent dragon
In each sub-section I put dragons with pre-requisite dragons that I don't have (such as Florea needing Woodvine) before those that I can complete the combos for already
Obviously you can rearrange the list however you like, but I'd argue prioritising dragons with higher cloning odds is best because then you'll be able to get more out of Co-Op. So I'll be aiming for dragons with 10% single parent cloning odds, that are both limited and required, and have dragons required for their combos that I also don't have, first.
The cold remained as a standard of the day. No warmth broke through to soften the ice or edge towards spring. But from the frost, new life began to swirl. Woolly beasts, icicle trees, and crystal plants flourished and expanded across the Vale. NATURE stood tall and sound. The resilience, the reverence, the reminder that all life is good.
Nature is in the co-op with a restorative mood. Koala power to all!
Breeding hint: REMINISCENCE + cold + air
Incubation time: 23 hours
Status: Limited tier, 7 days
Elements / Habitats: cold, air, water
Breeding percentages: breeding hint 2.2%; co-op clone 10%
TIP: I bred Nature in the Rift on the fifth attempt (but it doesn’t have a trait ☹️). I used Icebound to fulfil the cold + air requirement, because I’m missing some traits for Icebound. Reminiscence contributes cold and water, so you only need to add air.

I love that description! And its design is awesome! So many great dragons this event 😁
I rarely post but goodness, I adore this dragon to bits. The design is so pretty and the lore is interesting. Definitely gonna be a dragon I draw in the future. ❄️
So would Nature's best chance if you don't have one be Co-Oping with Nature and using your own Reminiscence, since Nature fills in the element part of the combo?

I don't have the stats but I reckon so! According to the icon trick I got one first try like that!

Yes, that’s correct. If you clone Nature with Reminiscence, you’ll receive both the breeding and cloning percentages.

Nature is gorgeous! I love that it has a decent size head with eyeballs! 😊
Deca have released some beautiful dragons this event. It is going to be hard to pick a top three for the poll. 😊

I've got three things:
First off, I'm jealous. Why is everyone rift breeding this dragon without a trait? During the times when I don't have a new dragon to breed, I usually try to breed a non-rift version of dragons in which I only have a rift version of.
Second, the horns of this dragon reminds me a lot of Mesmer, which is somewhat bad since it feels like too much on the head of the dragon.
Third off, I am kind of sad for this dragon. Its backstory is really depressing, and I kinda want to make a fan-evolution centered around its previous form.
The Original One is in all things. The Original One is nowhere at all. From all creations, over all creations, does Arceus watch over all.

This got me thinking. I can't draw to save my life but I'm wondering what it used to look like. Obviously the colour scheme would be different.
I reckon the main body would be something like green/yellow rather than white/gold, and the flowers on its knees would have been more vibrant. And for the wings, I reckon they used to be larger and more decorative. Colder regions doubtless meant harsher conditions so more practical things were required, but maybe in the fields they used to live in, they had large wings that kinda looked like a field of flowers rather than ice? The golden parts might have been branch- or vine-like, and the tips maybe flowers or something like that, and the main parts might have looked like grass or leaves. It has a brown part on its head; I'm thinking this was originally greener, like grass. Maybe with little flower-like things on it. The tips of the ears have some green curl sort of resembling a seeding. I reckon this was more obvious before, perhaps even had leaves. And the curl on the end of its tail I think was green too, and had a bud on the end of it. If hypothetically we were ever to get a notification that had its original form on it, I reckon the particles around it would be petals and leaves rather than stars and snowflakes.

This was fun to imagine! How do you imagine it??
My idea was actually quite similar to how you imagined it.
The Original One is in all things. The Original One is nowhere at all. From all creations, over all creations, does Arceus watch over all.
