Board Thread:Dragon Story Breeding/@comment-24963246-20140520033923/@comment-26035215-20150123092853

Hello there, I'm somewhat 'new' to the forums, but can be considered as an 'old-timer?' to my standards. Just came accord this thread and read every comment meticulously and would personally like to drop off my personal experience with this game.

(P.S. please skip the next three paragraphs if you wanna forget about my blattering and into the reason why i posted this essay!) 

....Anyways with that said, I started playing DS TL around October of 2012 on an andriod and learnt the game's charms and very devilish setbacks (no thank you, greedy TL!) as the 'underprivelaged' player. No matter, I was usually very patient when it comes to breeding, but when there's a huuuge gap in the breeding time and hatching time in the nest; e.g. virtue breeding time (33hours) and a love hatching (5hours) in the nest, I'll spend the gold I've earned from downloading the promoted games and such.

Eventually the biasness varying from iOS to andriod, 4months of failed diamond attempts with the addition of TL introducing too many new dragons for players to keep up has a toll on me, and I quit the game after i failed to get the Eclipse Dragon (In case you don't know, when first introduced, the Eclipse Dragon was available for a short duration of time too!). And that happened around September, 2013.

More than a year later, I came back to DS TL after Christmas (and missed so many christmas exclusives lol) but this time with an iOS and a more positive outlook in DS. After a little over 3 weeks of playing DS and a very long period of rage-quit,   ' I got 1 Cactus Dragon, 2 Celestial Dragon, 1 Iridescent Dragon, 1 Seer Dragon, 1 Mistmoth Dragon, 1 Penumbra Dragon, got lucky with the most recent 'Spin to Win' and got 2 Sparklers, 2 Seahorse, 1 Lunar Horse, and the exclusive Penumbra Dragon  (Note, I only spent 30 gold to spin again once, and that was how I got my second sparkler)  tried and succeeded to breed the Peace Dragon  which gave me  another 3 Griffin Dragon  in the process and I'm currently breeding for a Dino dragon to try Dino + Scarecrow combo for a Diamond (P.S. using this combo cause most of its possible outcomes with this type combination are no longer than 12 hours) and   ' from my seven tries so far I got 3 more Landworm Dragons  of which i already have two epics of, bringing the total number of Super Rare Landworm Dragons on my Isle to five.

And now, finally, to tell the reason why i posted this.

1) Rarity of the breeding parents do not matter.  I got my peace dragon from Light + Yellow combo and got my three extra landworms using the Fire+Forest combo. The other rares and super rares i got and was stated above was achieved by these common hybrids parents; Fruitful+Coral. By purely using only the common dragons, you can easily rack in coins, and spam those Upgrades to evolve more dragons without loosing your total amount of coins.

Just remember to spend within your needs, and never spend a dime on those gold! TL is very evil with their money-sapping games, but  this is the exact same reason why I tell myself to appreciate everything you get on your isle , especially when you're not getting what you want.

<p style="margin:0cm0cm0.0001pt;line-height:16.5pt;"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;border:1ptnonewindowtext;padding:0cm;">3) But look at all these Coral and Luck Dragons! <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">  <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">I   was an andriod user after all and will sell every extra common my isle hosts, but iOS users should be grateful instead because we can trade them away for materials and craft decorations and gemstone dragons with the gems you receive. It'll definitely take time to get them all out of your isle, but you'll be rewarded with more bombs at the mines for exclusive dragons and a chance to expand your isle more. In fact, that's how I got my Fire Opal after two weeks of my return!

Go ahead and take a leave.  <span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">I'm not joking here. I've quit this game for more than a year because of the exact same reasons all of us faced. If the pressure of not getting what you want isnt meeting up with your expectations, it's really okay to take a breather and leave. Just remember that uninstalling the app doesnt mean that your Isle's progress is lost forever; TL actually does a good job of safekeeping it. So if you felt like coming back for memories' sake, feel free to hit that install button and delve back into your bittersweet memories again.
