One of my parks bred a traited Dracomancy in the rift two days ago. Since then, I've been trying to single parent clone it as well as trying the breeding combo (they have similar odds according to the Compendium).
Dracomancy can be cloned and evolved at any stage, but it will cost gems to evolve after the event. With Dragons Week arriving today, I can't decide whether I should try and get the dragons that I need traited in the Rift or whether to continue on with the Dracomancy effort.

I need to decide what to do too. I now have two traited Draco 1 and they have given another non traited Draco. So I have enough for one of both traited and normal Draco 1 and 4 amd a regular pedestal. I'm sure I have plenty of dragons needed to fill out my rift with one of everything. I’m not a completionist but would like to get to blue fire and then purple one day.
Thanks to the work put into compiling information on this forum, I get how Dracomancy works now. Though it doesn't reflect well game design-wise that these convoluted processes are not communicated well without consulting the meta. Sometimes I am very baffled as to how Deca decides to communicate game mechanics within the game. Feels like this happens almost every single event. I remember the Treebark dragon last event being somewhat confusing as well.
You're very welcome! I'm so glad we could be of help.
Unfortunately, explaining things in the game has never been Deca’s strong suit. So when new features and concepts are released, the reps try to convey as much information and detail as possible because we know players won’t find it in-game. I’m not sure how players manage if they don’t engage in a DV community.
I couldn’t agree more, the community is like the driver’s manual for an extremely complicated piece of technology. Or something. I know I would have missed many things if I didn’t consult the forum! But I get why it’s complicated, Backflip/Deca kept/keeps the game interesting year after year. I love the fact that they still can surprise us. And I love the fact that everyone here can explain the surprise for me afterwards 😂
I was just thinking about that, and decided to put a set of my Dracos in an Apocalypse habitant. Btw, it would be really helpful for the dragon count cap and the DC cap be increased for the Apocalypse habitat. I seem to remember that this has been requested. 🙏🙏
And I’m saying it again- maybe DECA did ask in the Discord group about increasing spooky habitats, & it may have been met with some resistance- but no one else seems to agree with it! It does seem odd that there’s only a max of 4 allowed on a habitat- especially since most other event habitats allow 5 or 6. And since there’s been 11 of the Halloween events & the ghostly event- say there’s an average of 6 dragons released during an event, that’s 66 spooky dragons, however, with a max cap of 13 habitats, that means you can only house 52 of them! I’ve ended up adding a Dark habitat to my spooky island so I can keep them all together but it does ruin the look somewhat. I can’t see why DECA would think most people wouldn’t want an increase- more dragons needs more room. I think they need to at least do your suggestion Adlerist, and create a giant spooky that holds more, without a bigger footprint! And now we are having the same thing come up with the Apocalypse dragons- with a fresh batch of 4 Draco’s added to the mix! Mind you- there’s no giant Apocalypse as yet so……
I did request an increase to the dragon capacity for the Spooky Habitat. (Deca didn’t ask the Discord players. It was mentioned by a player and other players disagreed.)
The Apocalypse requests from all the DV communities include, Giant Apocalypse Habitat, Giant Spooky Habitat, increase the Spooky Habitat cap to 15, increase the dragon capacity at the Spooky Habitat, and adding the dark element to the Apocalypse Habitat. None of this happened. I can ask for an increase to the Apocalypse dragon capacity, but it sounds like the giant version is what players have been clamouring over.
Throughout this event, there have been constant complaints in all the DV communities about the Apocalypse and Spooky Habitats. I’ll ask for all of the above again, but since the Halloween event is ending soon, I doubt we’ll see any changes. These will likely be up for consideration next year. Sorry about that, everybody. The reps really tried.
thanks Adlerist- we really do appreciate that you try and look after us! It can’t be an easy thing! 🤣 Well, this far into an event, I don’t expect too many changes, but fingers crossed we get a Giant Spooky & a Giant Apocalypse soon!! Though with the next event on the horizon, it might be better pushing for some Giant Ornamentals!!!

I love the new icons with numbers. Any chance they would be willing to do the same for the eggs? Without having Draco 2 or 3 in the dragonarium, there's no way to search for the two eggs to determine which are which in your own park. I know 2 and 3 aren't officially listed, but many of us players are still going to collect the 2 and 3 Draco dragons and eggs regardless. It would be nice to have them in the Dragonarium for searching (ideal), but if not, then having the numbers would help.

a bit off topic, Quil, but I don’t know how to send private messages in this forum. Will you please put your Awoo in coop? It’s my only remaining event dragon to try for… thanks for the help!

Yes, I requested this based on your previous post. I thought the numbers were going to be added to the pedestals at the same time as the dragons, but it’ll be included with the next data deploy. Thank you for the suggestion!

Hello, Dee! In the DV Help Desk, under the board Forum Help, there is a thread called Forum Features. It has instructions on How to Message a Member. You can also post on the Cooperative Requests thread and ask members to put Awoo in the co-op for you. Sending lots of luck for Awoo! He is a tough one to obtain with its co-op cloning odds at 1%.

Oh my goodness, I didn’t realize that I was using my candy to evolve my Draco!!! I just wasted 19,000 candy that I was saving to get more dragons at the end!!! I am DEVASTATED.

It’s not a waste to evolve Draco. The fully evolved version is a different dragon. In the Dragonarium, there are two Dracos. Draco1 (purchasable in the event market for 1,000 EC), and Draco4, fully evolved. This post has all the information you need about Dracomancy. And this post has pictures of the different Draco stages.

Yay! Thank you Deca for adding the numbers to Dracomancy. It was doing my head in trying to remember to rename all my Dracos with their numbers as I bred them. When they were newborns they all looked the same. 😉
I like that the earning rates for Dracomancy 1-4 are different. It is an unusual feature but very fitting when Draco 1 is only a head. But the Etherium rates were too low. Thank you Deca for giving them a boost. 😊
From clandestine burials to ominous dig sites, CalliAlli and Hawk have harnessed legendary powers, and unearthed not just double the heads, but quadruple the skulls with twins of the first Dracomancy dragon!
Mythology and fabled tales recall when the heroic and celebrated Drbobdob, K5WC, Nagini, and Nymphetamine remarkably conjured up a twin Dracomancy, in its final form, from a simple bag of bones!
Thank you so very much, CalliAlli, drbobdob, hawk, k5wc, nagini4732, and nymphetamine! Dracomancy is the dragon all dragons secretly wish they were. Apologies for the late thank you. I know some of you bred these Dracos days ago — I am barely catching up to you. In the meantime, I have sent candy red gems and candy apple treats in hallowed and Halloween thanks and appreciation!
If anyone else sent a twin of a new dragon and didn’t receive gems and treats from me, please let me know. I may have missed it, but I’d still like to send the gifts. Cheers!

Sorry if this has been answered a million times already but can I breed Dracomancy IV in the rift & if so, how?
You’ll need to use the breeding combo Bone + Scourge to breed Draco1 in the Rift, then as Jrmur24 said, evolve it to Draco 4. If you have two Draco4 dragons, you can breed them together and produce another Draco4 or the traited Draco4 pedestal.

Dracomancy1 (base) and Dracomancy4 (final form) now have different eggs!
Dracomancy1 egg
Dracomancy4 egg
Collect both of them while they’re hot!

Since we aren't going to have Om of Noms this year, I would like to see them included in the final day claim as they will not be available to claim again until next year.
With that said, it may be a bit late to request, and I don't know if that would be too many dragons to add.
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.
I passed out in the Whine Lounge and now have an Epic hangover. No Scourge dragon of any kind from my rift breeding cave at either one or four percent odds. However, there were enough Eldritch fails to dress up all the Four Horsemen, provide a naked Eldritch, and a pedestal. Oddly enough, some of the Eldritch fails were even traited.
I can’t remember when the Four Horsemen rode into the Vale but I have since given them the names Wyatt, Doc, Billy, and Frank. Mrs. Murphy refers to the new Ominous Digsite as the OK Corral. Boot Hill might have been more appropriate, but a cemetery is already part of this event.
