For those of you interested in knowing how traits look on the dragons, at the Runic Breeding Caves, I claimed the traited-twin versions of the new unbreedable dragons from the last three events.
Frostivale Yulebration
Everfrost with a dark trait
Igluit with a fire trait
Sugarmitten with a lightning trait
Garden Noms
Bushwhack with a metal trait
Fomhar with a plant trait
Maze with a dark trait
Whitbee’s Candy Bash IX: XI Hsab Ydnac S’eebtihw
Dortal with a fire trait (baby version, because you can’t see the trait inside the ribcage on the adult, unless Dortal is on his hind legs or jumping)
Grimoire with a plant trait
Vampir with a water trait
Wow! The traits look amazing on all of these dragons. Everfrost, Igluit, and Fomhar look especially good!
The holidays may have left, but there’s something just as jolly around the corner…
A break from events to catch your breath and catch up on some sleep. And during that break, there will be an Expansion Extravaganza and two new types of islands: the Colossal Island and the Megatat!

I love that the image became the new forum banner, that art is amazing!!! It looks so peaceful, I can almost hear the birds singing and the waterfall!

I'm excited about the Megatat, and am curious about a few things (which I will find out on its release):
How many dragons can it hold
If it is upgradeable
Will it earn DragonCash, and if so, how much can it hold?
Thank goodness I have two wishes saved so I can get both of them once they release tomorrow!
I strongly suspect the new islands will both cost gems. A good use of wishes!
The new islands are way too large and way to special for DC. If the Gargantuan costs gems, there’s no way the Colossal and Megatat won’t cost gems.
I'm currently sitting on six wishes, which I've been saving for islands anyway.
After working on my Halloween themed island for the last couple of years, the island is finally full. I used the gargantuan island for this creepy Halloween project. So now is the perfect time for DECA to release another monstrous island. I need one for my next Halloween project.
We share our physical lives with those in spirit. For life, like love, never dies. Love knows no limits, not even death.

I can't wait for the Megatat to arrive. I love the idea of the dragons being able to roam free without being constrained by their habitats. This would be a perfect island for dragons like Yarr, that keep trying to escape their habitats. 😊

It is always interesting to see how Deca has applied the traits to the dragons. I'm surprised to see Vampir with a larger traited area than Deca often puts on their dragons and Grimoire hardly has anything with a trait. I'm pleased Sugarmitten's 'fluffy bits' weren't all traited. Everfrost looks stunning with a dark trait. adlerist aren't you worried that Igluit will melt having a fire trait? 😉

It appears the Display Realm idea that was suggested and supported on the Dear Deca thread has somewhat come true in the form of the Megatat!
I don’t know if decorations can be placed on it, but dragons can certainly reside there, so that should help alleviate some of the dragon display issues that players repeatedly complain about.
Thank you, singleimage , Kiwichris , mishkasmom , and ladyj for the Display Realm suggestion and support! And thank you Deca Games for the new types of islands and expanding DragonVale in such creative ways!
There could also be another dimension for a different park like how the Rift is different from the vale. It would be another new park we can get habitats for and it’s connected to the vale and rift and we can put vale and Rift dragons in it. It could be simple no breeding caves it’s just used to decorate and keep dragons. That would get your dragons out so you can display them all.
Ooo I like that idea; kinda like turning your horses out to pasture 😄 that would def interest me, and I’d happily spend on decos and islands for the ‘display only’ realm !
Count me in on the idea of having a “display only” realm. Decorating my park is what drew me to the game to start with & is still my favorite park of the game. As the game has gotten more complex, I find it more frustrating & I already have enough frustration in my RL. In fact as I think about it, I Ike the idea more & more.
Me too! I am actually so thankful for this break that I can take time to do some cleaning up. I don’t like to crowd everything on an island, so I don’t have my max number of habitats. The thing is, once I have decorated an island, they come up with new dragons, and I have to think of how to accommodate them, which ended up having to redecorate again. Yes, I have a little OCD. 😬 So yes, I vote for a “display realm”!

This is amazing! I’m really excited about the Megatat and I’m definitely looking forward to another giant island.
I’d be interested in knowing if decorations can be put on the Megatat because my storage tower is full. I keep hoping DECA will give us more than one island so I can use some of the decos, but they don’t. At least with the new giant island I’ll be able to place a lot of them.
I know where the Colossal island will be located, how about the Megatat?

I asked, since it’ll be released very soon, I can tell you the Megatat is only for dragons, no decorations. But as you said, the Colossal Island should help empty out the Storage Tower.
I imagine the two new islands will be located among / across the Gargantuan and Overgrown Islands. So that area will be complete. But that’s a guess.

I was so confused as to why it wasn't light element since it has it as a hidden element, plus before it was just yet ANOTHER ornamental-fire-earth-cold dragon. Glad they fixed that. Thanks to everyone who requested it to be changed!!
I feel like a Lace trader. My money is currently tied up in Lace pedestals.
I have 544 of them.
Isn't that almost a billion DC?!!
I calculated it, and 544 pedestals is worth exactly 979,200,000 dragoncash. It also means that @ligsie had 133,824 remaining iceberries minimum to buy all of those!

Sorry to throw off your calculations, but I actually had 244 of them before from a previous event where they were the best exchange. I did not have as many iceberries as you calculated (I did buy Greenge and Igluit).
I actually figured I would sell them when I need Xp, but I got glitched to the next level last increase and they have hung around. I’m not very good at decorating and it takes time, both decorating and selling pedestals. I’m good at hoarding (according to my husband), so the extra pedestals hang around.
I have started selling some pedestals occasionally.
Confessions of a hoarder, I actually right now have: 544 lace pedestals, 175 starwing , 124 nightmare, 95 moonstruck, 77 solarflare, 23 seraph, 6 nightbloom, 5 muse, and 5 glowwing pedestals. But each of those also include the regular and rift versions that I am collecting.
Honestly, I remember in the very first events, when you had to get prizes in order, not wanting the pedestals and thinking they were silly. Now I have 5 islands full of them!
The new islands are way too large and way to special for DC. If the Gargantuan costs gems, there’s no way the Colossal and Megatat won’t cost gems.

I'm cackling. That will cover you for another 5 years
Does anyone know if the Megatat can be upgraded? I saw it has 15 slots and a 3.5m DC cap. I'd prefer keeping wishes for islands. I'm running low after taking many breaks between events.
I'd be interested in some new easter decorations and upgrading my paradise habitats with event currency. Aside from that, I have no active projects left with Christmas over that require humongous amounts of currency.
My park was well behaved today and only froze 5 times between moving habitats! I expected at least 20. I don't have the gall to move dragons around, though. This was unlikely lucky enough. Don't ask me why it's the most freeze worthy thing there is (okay, maybe after selecting three elements to filter in the coop cave lol).

If you want to wish for it, wait. I reckon the initial excitement about the megatat will die down. 15 dragons is a lot for sure but not worth a wish in my opinion, unless you really want it for the aesthetics, because it is very pretty, even if the art style doesn't fit in completely.
i also wouldn't waste 1500 gems on it for the same reason, unless you've got thousands upon thousands of gems and don't have anything to spend them on.

I see. Thank you. No issue waiting until the improved version drops... perhaps in a hidden event
If I understood adlerist, the surface dragons have been dropped. If nothing else, it's a good place to put them since we have no decorations to go with the habitats. Their theme works well enough with the omnitats. A hybrid can look surprisingly okay... after much tinkering.
I figure many players would be happy to instead clear up an island. Put those omnitats on the colossal, if they're not on the giant already. Keeping the surface habitats to cosmetic levels opens space for brand new habitat releases. Even if the art style is inconsistent, it's a perfect dumping space for a very specific selection indeed...

What do you mean by 'dropped'? I don't think I've seen mention of any surface element things anywhere since the release of the Megatat.
