Hey nonnyd, are you also trying to avoid (Double) Rainbow fails? Here are my suggestions according to the assumption that you are:
You could try for both Bronze and Gold at the same time by using any combinations with Fire + Earth + Metal, like Lava + Iron, for example. Adding Light to this combination will let you try for Mirror, while also adding the possibility of getting Rainbows.
For the rest, trying for more than one at the same location will probably put you at risk of getting Rainbow fails, since most of these each have 3 elements to begin with. But if you don't mind that risk, you could probably try for Snowy Gold, Seasonal, and Bicentennial at the same time, with Rose + Storm.
Daydream has a locked combo, so there's no way to try for your other desired dragons.
Hope this helps!
GCID: rionhow Thanks to ElektronX for my Light Rift avatar!
Last year, this time I started to prepare for my BeB list, a decent number of dragons was on there. With the help DV gurus, I managed to breed all, except 2, Panlong, and Apoc.
This year my list is much shorter with just 2 Emeralds, a 2nd Panlong, and a 2nd Century.
So, is there a combo for both Panlong, and Century? DV gurus?
We have new members this year. With the exception of few like Arkynos, and Skitch, I understand most prob. feel BeB is a stressful event when you toss a pair in Sandbox, and an array of dragons are on display, but it is really not. You just need a little planning on your part. So if you need help w/ breeding particular dragons, post your wanted list of dragons up here, one of the DV veterans will help you breed those Dragons!
For me BeB was very fun, only a few along the way, mostly because I failed to breed Panlong, but 14+ Taraddiem or so. On the other hand, one of the fun parts was that I originally wanted 2 Leap Years, but ended up with 6 All members were quite pleased w/ the dragons that they had got when BeB concluded.

Last year when I also needed several of the most wanted (Panlong, Leap Year, etc) the first thing I went to was Bloodstone breeding guide at the bottom of his posts. It has and remains the best reverence for me in breeding to catch up through time! I then use those elements and his advice and play with Sandbox a little as I get more particular. I will say this to newer people - Panlong is a pain to breed-but worth it and Apoc (which I wanted the most) might be best to buy as there are a ton of fails in its combo. Koala to all
Looking around and enjoying life!

Since you've already got a Panlong, you could try Cold+Panlong. Since it's during BeB, the fail list is pretty long. But any combo that would give both Panlong and Century would give plenty of long fails anyway since it includes Cold, Earth, Water, Fire, and Air.
Okay. Thanks K! How fun. We have about 5 weeks, I am prepared to hit "Retry". Looked thru SB quickly, think I can use a 2nd Frostfire. This 2nd BeB would be a true test of patience for me. My gems bank is ehh good, so just how far can I resist from purchasing Panlong.
Are you in search of a 2nd Panlong too? Want a side bet?

Ugh no thank you. Panlong and Apocalypse were horrible for me last year. I don't want a reminder.

Sure, since you already have 3 Century, 2 Apoc, and are happy w/ just a SINGLE Panlong (it can be lonely)...what can a girl say? I checked your park, you know

I'll try to get a 2nd Panlong too. It's the only limited dragon (apart from the gemstone dragons) that I only have one of.

I have a hard cut off at 5:00, will check back later. Did not mean to post and run

I'm content with having only one of each non epic limited. I have more than one century because I needed high earning dragons to fill my habitats way back then. I don't think I need anything during this BeB. Aside from a century egg, but I have more than one so I can get it any time.

This is wonderful! In preparation for BeB. Does anyone have suggestions on the best combos to achieve any of the following... (Prepare yourselves, it's quite a list!)
Now with winter it should be out before be and around way after too, so that one isn't so important. But the others I want to have as good a shot as possible with.
thank you in advance!! x

The only one I can tell you for sure is the Sunstruck... That is Heat + Mirage... It's the only one I'm missing... Other than that one, refer to Bloodstone's monthly forecast, and that should help with most of the rest... It's a very good guide to all the dragons...

Alpha-order! Love it. These things do not go unnoticed!
Arbor: Locked Combo: Tree + Forest Mistletoe: Locked Combo: Tree + Lichen Sunstruck: Locked Combo: Mirage + Heat
Not an easy list to work from... All I can manage is to make pairs, I'm afraid.
We have a couple of locked combos. If Arbor, Mistletoe, and Sunstruck are high on your priority list, make sure you have the necessary parents before the start of BEB.
Winter and Victory share air and cold elements, so pair up on them. Bloom + Dodo/Sandstorm has the shortest average fail time. Leaf and Sprout share water and light elements, so there's another pair. Something like Carnival + Lotus
Or you could do something kinda crazy and put Rainbow + Leap Year together for some alone time, which gives you a chance for Apoc, Leaf, Prism, Sprout, Victory, and Winter... and every other dragon.

Ooh thanks all of you. These are the only dragons I have left to get full stop. All unavaliable at the moment. So frustrating!
So hopefully I may get lucky & get a sprout early on it could open up more breed options for ones I'm missing. Perhaps go for the locked ones on Island or cave and use the other breeding location for more generalised ones!

Thanks so much rion! Yes, avoiding DR. Now I'm still trying to get gourd, plus the new lodestone. Will keep trying on those others!

When do folks think we will see mistletoe? What is the ideal level dragon on a level 60 park to go for these hard to get dragons that sit in the middle of the pack of breeding possibilities ? Kite is another example for me that i never managed to breed in June. I went with level 15s before .would crowned dragons improve the odds?

Last year Mistletoe was released on December 10th, so we could be seeing it again within a few weeks. There is also a chance that BFS may hold another Bring Em Back event which will allow you to breed it and Kite during this time frame at the end of the year.
For level of your dragons, it's really up for you to decide and how many resources you have to spend on leveling them up. Although the game does say that level 11+ dragons have better breeding odds for rare dragons, there really aren't any statistics proving this claim to be so. I personally have all of my dragons at level 15+ because of the past shrine goals, but sometimes I can get rare/epic dragons with dragons that are only level 4. It's all chance really.
The only benefit that I can see with crowned dragons is for your Colosseum events. A level 20 dragon is almost guaranteed to receive a gold placement.
Yay! beb is back! I you guys would be so kind to help me figure out what would be the most efficient combo to get these dragons:
The 4 Snowflakes Nightmare Berry Dusk
Any and all help is appreciated! Thanks and Koala to all during this event!
Dusk is Sun&Moon at night Berry is Fire/Water/Light, so something like Fire&Lotus Nightmare is only Abyss&Howl
The first 2 snowflakes are only available as event rewards and the other 2 will either be by breeding those 2 or as gifts during the 24th-26th. We don't know which yet.
