The amount of time it takes before the last claw is attached.. The 9th claw was attached within 7 hours or so after the release of the 9th dark block.. I think the 10th dark block is already there for like 14 hours or something...
I need a break. I realized last night that I was within reach of the third egg with a bit of grinding. Three islands of bushes later and bingo. My little island is too far off to bother trying though. About 10,000 to go there and I lack the resources for a big push. AND I really would like a week or two off. But then I foolishly entered the Jet comp didn't i? dang. Still I think once a day is within the rules. And no visiting and no racing yay!!! Ex I need to borrow your patented bush exterminator. I am not even going to keep my maze/labyrinth.

That is truly amazing, and funny, too!!!!! Thanks for the laugh!!!!
Feel like doing this to my hardware, can't get in the game on smartphone or Kindle I'm sure them pesky dark dragons are messin' wit me...
My thing atm is that I cannot get into the gift giving and retrieve nor give gifts at all right now. BFS is currently working on it to try and solve the issue. It's been this way since the last major DV and iOS updates were applied. I wish you the best, for real.

Still need one more Rose and one more Gift to complete my set.
No errors at this time and predicting that we get the Dark at 5:51 Mountain time today! Let's hope
10.20pm GMT now, how far behind are you? Really ticked off by all the error messages and crashes. But each time I manage to get in, which is about once every 5 or 6 attempts, the dragons have not crossed over the portal. I think I will have to wait until tomorrow now
Kindle park1: nearly all dragons are frolicking in their habitats! (A Thorny little problem to resolve...)
Smartphone park2: Geode, a dragon with rocks in! Still to breed 4 dragons...

Looking around and enjoying life!
All Dragons are safely in their habitats or in the HC

The Dark element is here! 30 billion magic has been collectively cast towards dark and the Tines are now complete. Dark Rift Dragons have been awarded to those that earned eggs.
Rift Dragon
This Rift Dragon has identical stats to the previous one.
Dark Dragon
Available at level 25, 13 (displayed as 10) hours to incubate, earns 6DC at level 1 and costs 3 million DC. Along with the same Dark Hybrids made up of Plant, Fire and Earth combos.
Nightshade - Dark + Plant, level 25, 13.5 hours (displayed as 9 hours), 7DC at level 1, 900 gems, 3.15 million DC Fungus - Plant + Dark, level 25, 13 hours, 8DC at level 1, 900 gems, 3.15 million DC Cave - Dark + Earth, level 25, 11 hours (displayed as 6.5 hours), 6DC at level 1, 1200 gems, 2.6 million DC Root - Earth + Dark, level 25, 9 hours (displayed as 12.5 hours), 7DC at level 1, 700 gems, 2 million DC Dungeon - Dark + Fire, level 25, 15 hours (displayed as 12 hours), 7DC at level 1, 960 gems, 2.88 million DC Watch - Fire + Dark, level 25, 7 hours 48 mins (displayed as 8 hours), 6DC at level 1, 960 gems, 1.56 million DC
Only hybrids from the first 3 elements are available right now and they have a shiny new habitats to live in, including the Reward Habitats which don't take up a slot. The stats for these are:
Reward Habitats
"Dark Reward Habitat", Capacity 1, Cap 100 000, Size 3x3 "A testament to your work on the return of Dark magic, these tourmoline crystals resonate with dark magic. Any dragon returning through the Rift of the Scar will find this habitat comforting. Welcome home! This habitat doesn't count towards your park's habitat cap."
"Large Dark Reward Habitat", Capacity 3, Cap 200 000, Size 4x4 "Dark magic wouldn't have returned without the help of park owners like yourself. As thanks, the Wizards have rewarded you with a habitat capable of holding several dragons. Oh, don't worry about giving treates to the nibble plant. It feeds itself. This habitat doesn't count towards your park's habitat cap."
"Giant Dark Reward Habitat", Capacity 5, Cap 350 000, Size 5x5 "Congratulations! With your help, Dark magic has returned to DragonVale. The wizards have given you a reward fit for a king. Covered with phosphorescent lichen found in the Vathis Trench, this massive habitat needed extra adornment to support so many dragons. This habitat doesn't count towards your park's habitat cap."
Regular Habitats
"Dark Habitat", Level 25, Cost 7.5 million, Build Time 18 hours, Capacity 2, Cap 50 000, Size 3x3, "description": "Contrary to popular belief, sleeping on this oozy surface doesnt make your dark dragons dirty. Instead it keeps their coats shiny and clean. Then again, can you really tell when a dark dragon is dirty?"
"Large Dark Habitat", Level 28, Cost 15 million, Build Time 22 hours, Capacity 4, Cap 100 000, Size 5x5 "You'd be astonished how hard it is to work on a habitat containing so much darkness. Wizard craftsmen were constantly losing their tools only to find them several days later. After spending months crafting these spacious habitats, they recieved requests to build Giant Habitats. A wizards work is never done."
"Giant Dark Habitat", Level 34, Cost 25 gems, Build Time instant, Capacity 5, Cap 175 000, Size 6x6 "The craftsmanship needed to hold five dark dragons represents quite a feat. It was second only to building a habitat that hosts this much dark flora. Collected from the darkest regions of land and sea, these plants thrive now that dark magic has returned. WARNING: some of them look hungry."
New Decoration There's also the obligatory element flag for 1 million DC and a decoration:
"Erebus Ostracon", Level 25, 1.5 million DC, 2x2 "The Tower of Erebus was laid waste when the Scar of the World was created. After dark magic returned to our world, the young wizard Keh discovered a piece of the ancient tower. He warned his wizard parents "Don't touch it! It's evil!" but they knew better and made a beautiful decoration from it. As Keh discovered, dark magic is not evil, just misunderstood."
Notable absences There are no hybrids for Cold, Lightning, Water, Air or Metal. No doubt they will be coming soon. At present you are not able to breed a Rift Dragon or a Dark Dragon with any dragon that does not include Dark, Plant, Earth and/or Fire elements. There is also no statue (not that it is necessary any more) and no boost.
Big thanks to Gallifrey for the images.
