Hi Dragonalley :)

The first summoning didn't work out for me (I had only 3 farms then), but I was successful in summoning both the Metal dragons and I owe it all to the crops.

It's a good idea to send out your Forest dragon on the quest as soon as you can - each quest is 5 hours, so you could probably do about 2 quests a day, one overnight. Each quest guarantees 1 ornament. I doubt we'll be able to collect all 30 ornaments, but the idea is to get as many as you can get.

The most important in my experience is the crops. I also love Rushrooms the best, but the sad thing is, it gives nothing. People are reporting success with Diamond Dates (5 hours) - they say you get 1 candy cane each farm, so that's a total of 6. I hear that Eliteleeks (8 hours) gives 2 candy canes each farm, so that's 12 each harvest. From my previous summonings, Eliteleeks and Diamond dates would sometimes give the parts, sometimes they wouldn't.. but what guarantees parts every planting is ScaleyPears (20 hours) - I've been getting 4 candy canes each farm, a total of 24 everyday. At that rate, with 8 days left, that's plenty candy canes you'll collect (24 x 8 = 192).

Last dragon summoning, they tweaked the drop rates midway without telling anyone - hatching dragons would give nothing, not even for Super Rare dragons. No crops except Scaley Pears was giving parts, the only thing giving parts was the quests. Luckily, I kept planting Scaley Pears, which is what helped me reach the final target. They are very capable of tweaking the drop rates again, so I'd advise you to stay away from the 5 and 8 hour crops for a few days till the summoning ends.

This time with hatching, I got 4 gifts for Island, 3 from Mist and nothing for Life. It's seems like they're more generous this time for common dragons, but you never know with these guys - they'll change things anytime without any warning. I doubt Fire dragons will give any gifts, so continue breeding as you usually would. Since hatching is a luck thing, I say don't depend on it, focus more on questing and planting. Whatever you get with hatching is a bonus.

I agree, this is all just a money making tactic - they'll make you come close to the final numbers (260 parts) and tweak the drop rates at the end. In your desperation to get the dragons before the timer runs out, you'll decide to use a little gold to complete the summoning and buy the dragons for a small amount. It depends on you though - if you really like the dragons and think it's worth having or not. Hope you find my tips helpful :)
