What is the most efficient combo for a Bloom dragon? Does Storm+Plant have the shortest fail times, or is there something else?

Yeah. Adding another element will give LYD as a choice.

Alrighty, thanks Fletch.

The Sandbox says the following will have the same fail times as Storm + Plant, but nothing with a faster fail rate.

Ash + Storm
Bloom + Storm
Cactus + Storm
Evergreen + Storm
Lichen + Storm
Reindeer + Storm

Oh yes, any combination of the 3 elements should do the job.

Just making sure. I can make a lunar eclipse dragon and an equinox dragon after Jan 2 by breeding them together. Correct?

Hi and welcome stormbreaker. Head on over to the Gem Exchange thread, you will find people to trade with there

Is it an error on the sandbox that ash + lichen does not produce the possibility of bloom? Cold, plant and electric are there.

Ash is plant, lighning, lichen cold, plant *sorry had to type out thought process lol* so yeah probably?

According to the wiki, storm is required, which is probably why the sandbox reflects accordingly.

Oh, thank you. This explains my poor results.

Scorch Lichen for LYD? Ok. Willing to try. Seaweed Firefly isn't working

Are you quoting me there? Sun, Moon and the much more frequent Blue Moon is available with the Cold and Lightning elements. You might not want to breed with them this close to the finish line.

I think the percentages for LYD are all the same except the fail times are different (Seaweed and Firefly being the shortest). I got one while trying for a Pearl (Seaweed+Snow) after I gave up on going for it straight with seaweed and firefly. It just needs to have 4 different elements in it with water, plant, fire, and lightning being the shortest fail times.

I know that they all have dif percentages. I just mean that maybe Seaweed/Firefly may not work for me...oh I dunno anymore.

The chances of you making a LYD with any combo that has 4 or more elements is the same as any other. The odds don't change as you change breeding combinations, or dragon levels, or order in the breeding cave, or anything else. It is out of your control. All you can do is keep trying. And the combos with the shortest fail times allow you try more frequently than any other.

Koala.

Hmm, this is rather weird and i need someone else's opinion.. i'we got this app connected to the dragonvale wiki site, and its saying that breeding 2 Solar eclipse dragons can either make solstice, garnet or Opal... finding this hard to believe and i sure as hell dont want to waste 96 hours on yet another solar eclipse, already got 8 of them !!
