Thank you so much for supporting DragonVale by submitting your feedback. It is immensely helpful, as it provides the Deca DV Team with player responses and recommendations for the dragon designs. Here’s a repost of some friendly reminders to ensure all ratings are accurate and counted.
1. You can add comments to your ratings, but please double-check and be sure you provided a number to rate the dragon.
2. If the following is submitted:
1. 5 2. 4 3. 3 4. 5 5. 4 6. 5 7. 5
But there are 8 questions (or if 8 ratings are submitted, and there are only 7 questions), the ratings will not count because it’s impossible to tell which rating goes to which category. Using the dragon’s Rate a Dragon template will help avoid this issue, but it’s not a requirement.
3. Please use a number between 1-5 to rate the dragons. Numbers outside this range will be discarded; it will not be calculated in the ratings average.
4. If more than one number is submitted, the rating will not be included.
5. If you change your mind or warm up to a dragon, you can edit your comments or ratings. But if you update your ratings, please inform OboeKade so he can ensure it is accurately recorded. You must be a member to edit your post because guest profiles are not saved.
6. Deca Games asked players to rate their dragons and provided questions for the categories they would like to receive feedback on. Please keep all comments related to the dragon. Opinions and suggestions about the selection process Deca utilises to add player-designed dragons to the game, requests to include or exclude a player’s dragons from the game, and other off-topic comments will not be passed on to Deca. In addition, excessively rude, graphic, or offensive remarks will not be relayed. Criticism is certainly welcomed, but try to keep it constructive and related to the dragon.
7. The Rate a Dragon threads will be locked on December 6th, when the event concludes. If you need more time, please message me prior to the deadline.
Many thanks to ladyj, MinyaZ, OboeKade, samiam, and Worms for all their work on the Rate a Dragon project! And a huge thank you to everybody for taking the time and providing your feedback on the new dragons. It is greatly appreciated by all!

3. Rate Waterwalker’s price (11,000 Magic)
4. How well does Waterwalker fit the theme of the event
5. Rate Waterwalker’s design details

Animation: 3/5 Although I enjoy the way that the dragon hides underwater, it could have been portrayed much more smoothly. I just see the dragon's sprite shrinking into oblivion, which is an unnecessary bother to my ocd.
Size: 4.5/5 Overall, Waterwalker's size seems about right. It is simply just a looong boi.
Price: 5/5 Much cheaper than last event.
Theme: 3/5 I am unsure if I would see many lilypads in a greenhouse.
Design: 1.5/5 This "dragon" is merely a giraffe with a lilypad on its head. As far as my judgment goes, I do not believe that this creature even classifies as a dragon. Perhaps a kappa, but certainly not a dragon.
Combo: 4/5 Overall, the combo is pretty good, although thine hast one concern. The only hidden dragons which are available to obtain during this event are Cumberpatch, evolution dragons, and Diggy. With no monolith dragons currently available to breed Cumberpatch and with Diggy requiring Bloatato to be bred, it could be a tad difficult for new players to obtain a hidden dragon needed to breed Waterwalker.
Preference: 3/5 I have no preference for nor against this "dragon". I do not hate it, nor do I really like it either. Waterwalker will probably end up being one of those dragons that I end up forgetting about most of the time, like Efreet.
Comments: It seems that DECA Games really enjoys bombarding us with new Hidden-element dragons. I would really love to see a new Epic Dragon that is not a hidden dragon, especially for Olympus, Chrysalis, and Gemstone elements.
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.

1. Animation 5
2. Size (if you don’t own Waterwalker, please check a friend’s park) 5 in general I think the artists need to make the dragons slightly smaller, but it makes sense here
3. Price (11,000 Magic) 2 please don't make unbreedable dragons with low cloning odds over 10,000 EC. 2 points not 1 because I'm thankful it's much better than recent events
4. How well does Waterwalker fit the theme of the event 3 not sure how it relates to greenhouses, but it is shown on the loading screen at least
5. Rate Waterwalker’s design 5 I think this is a really good example of a dragon that represents something but still looks like a dragon/an animal rather than just the thing itself. Well done to the artist(s)!
6. How would you rate Waterwalker’s breeding combo (BOG + Hidden) 2 it’s only not 1 because Bog is easy to get. I think whoever created this combo forgot Lotus exists (also, see comment)
7. How much do you like Waterwalker (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) 3 in my opinion unbreedable dragons should never ever have cloning odds under 2%. Since I already have all the dragons I want and desperately wanted Walkerwalker, I spent so many gems on this dragon across my parks, only to not get it in any of them.
Comments/feedback for Deca Apart from evolutions which can’t be bred anyway, there are no hidden dragons where neither an evolution dragon, the hidden element/a hidden dragon nor a monolith dragon is required to breed it (maybe not directly required for the dragon but somewhere in its tree), meaning all hidden dragons essentially force you to spend event currency/gems (outside of using the co-op cave which is reliant on others, or getting one from an egg of mystery which is even more unreliable than co-op) due to how monolith and evolution dragons work. In my opinion, there should be at least one hidden dragon for every event (that has them in) that can be obtained with a normal combo (unrelated to evolutions, monoliths, other hiddens, or other dragons that need to be bought). Waterwalker’s combo should be Bog + Lotus. Suggestions for other events: Igluit could require two of Icebound, Flurry and Icy Torrent, Redbeard could require Celtic + Clover, Scout could require Valor + fire + cold (because of its two heads), not sure about Morphimagus. Combo changes seem to be rare but I think this is really important as breeding is the main point of this game for a lot of people. There are plenty of examples of epic dragons not having epic dragons or elements in their combos, so why has the hidden element been singled out?

Comments / feedback for Deca It’s a giraffe, not a dragon, but someone went to a lot of effort to make its walking and running animation really graceful.
1. 4/5 Nice animation, if a bit clunky 2. 3/5 Woah, way too big for my taste 3. 4/5 Keep unbreedables under 10k please 4. 4/5 It’s a bit of a stretch but okay 5. 4/5 Love the lily pad but too big & too spindly 6. 4/5 No complaints really but a bit graceful looking for Bog 7. 4/5 Just slightly misses the mark
2. Size (if you don’t own Waterwalker, please check a friend’s park) 4
3. Price (11,000 Magic) 5
4. How well does Waterwalker fit the theme of the event 4 I guess a really BIG greenhouse might have a lilypond big enough for a giraffe to hide in
5. Rate Waterwalker’s design 4 I don't really get the concept, especially with the name (giraffe as a waterlily? and there's no walking on water, a water strider type insect design would be more appropriate
6. How would you rate Waterwalker’s breeding combo (BOG + hidden) 5
7. How much do you like Waterwalker (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) 4
2. Size 4/5 A bit too big. Thank goodness for the FOY!
3. Price (11,000 Magic) 2/5 No! REPEAT AGAIN: Too high for an unbreedable! Please just stick with 10,000 ESPECIALLY for these short events.
4. How well does Waterwalker fit the theme of the event 3/5 i have never, ever seen a Greenhouse that contains an actual lake or river!
5. Rate Waterwalker’s design 4/5 WW is a totally adorable Giraffe but is it really a Dragon?
6. How would you rate Waterwalker’s breeding combo (BOG + hidden) 3/5 Great for me as i have all of the hidden dragons and no need to breed one before breeding.
7. How much do you like Waterwalker (1 = I hate it, 5 = I love it!) 5/5 So cute and i love it but it just does not quite fit this particular event.
Comments / feedback for Deca: i know that i am 'speaking into the wind' but i wish DECA events had some kind of spreadsheet so that ALL artists were on the same page, designing for the same game. ALSO... please, PLEASE no more Evolution dragons in short events... it's neither realistic nor fair.
4. How well does Waterwalker fit the theme of the event: 4
5. Rate Waterwalker’s design: 4
6. How would you rate Waterwalker’s breeding combo (BOG + hidden): 4.5.. The combo sounds “easy”, but the low cloning odds is making it difficult to obtain. I had to buy it in 2 of my three parks.
7. How much do you like Waterwalker: 4
Comments / feedback for Deca: I think this is original (a giraffe) and I love waterlilies. However, a giraffe wearing a waterlily is not that appealing to me. I do like its hidden effect of becoming a floating waterlily when in the water.
