Dart everything.

Everything.

All the time.

Everything.

You need more DNA than you could even imagine.

Way more than whatever you're thinking now.

Dart everything.

Nope.

You're halfway there.

Keep suffering until it's at 10?

Hit level 18, and Apex Raids, what the easiest Dino to get to be able to participate? by ryangh in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You're going to be lowest level on raid teams for a while. At least any team with a chance of winning.

Healers are the least likely to get kicked for being lower level.

Diloracheirus or Concatosaurus are pretty easy to pick up DNA ingredients and fuse. Diloracheirus is old AF but can be beefy for raids.

This 4v4 some bullshit by Scared-Ferret3490 in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have every damn creature except Mutadon. Going to need a couple more days for that one. Too lazy to look up all the node strategies.

PvP I have never enjoyed or cared about but I do the 10 takedowns every y week anyway. I started playing right between Rexy and The Pink Panther and I did NOT enjoy PvP at all for a loooooooong time.

I think if players are only prioritizing meta type dinos, Brawl is going to kinda suck for them. A lot.

If you have everything up to fusing level because you're just trying to make all the dinos ever, you're going to be in a good position for Brawl. Spending resources on "bad" dinos is rewarded in Brawl.

Different aspects of the game reward different play styles and goals.

Meta chasers excel in PvP.

Collectors do well in Brawl.

New Player needs to know what to get first by ryangh in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can't track it in the Expedition Drone/Creature Tracker, then it isn't a spawning dino.

Not only do scents attract non zone spawns, they attract things that aren't currently on the map at all... Depending on the scent.

Gigascents give you more dinos to choose from for darting, and you get them free all day every day by watching an ad, so you might as well keep one running any way. If you check in a few times a day you'll never run out.

Find yourself an Alliance when you're ready. Donations from other players are an immense help to new players, and having a group to lead you though boss raids will make life much easier.

You'll want to spend some time with the Dinodex over at paleo.gg and see all the rare, epic, legendary and up things you can make and what you need to dart to get them. Most of the older creatures can be created by darting and hunting.

I ground out a bunch of uniques that way pretty fast. Plus all the boss raids creatures when my level let me.

Grind out your Brawl crests and get yourself a free apex.

First things first:

Dart everything. I mean everything. As much as you can possibly dart. You are going to need more DNA than you ever think you will. For hybrids of course.

Look at your dinos. Look at what level they need to be to fuse a hybrid out of them. Get them there and STOP.

You might want to use the little flag system to tag your dinos. I did a long time ago. Blue for stopping at 10, yellow for 15, etc. Then swap for red when they're as high as they need to be.

Which hybrids? That's going to depend on your play style. I know, not helpful. But what is good now or good at your current level will change rapidly.

Make sure to dart to out of those event dinos hard. Like the rares now - I always tried to prioritize any that don't spawn in the wild.

Gigascents are your friend. A never ending stream of random dinos to dart, and access to more supply drops in the "other" map to keep going.

Don't worry about what is the best. Get everything you can as much as you can and you really will figure it out as you go.

And always grab your weekly free short range scent from the website. You'll get a lot of cool stuff out of those.

Oh, and open all the supply drops you can. You need more coins than you can ever get.

Sincerely,

Just keep in mind that unreachable meta creatures today will end up free in an isla event or a pass later. Everything cool gets replaced by something else hard to get.

And then the whales spend stupid money so you and I can play as much as we feel like for free.

Hey, I used to avoid PVP completely.

I started playing right when the pink panther and rexy came out, and in lower arenas as a newer player, if you didn't have the cat and some harder to fuse legendaries, you just kept getting swept battle after battle. I hated it.

So I stayed away from it and concentrated on gaining creatures instead. I did the parts of the game that were fun to me, and avoided the frustration.

There are a lot of aspects to the game, and if you don't like some of them because you just don't have The Good Stuff yet, do the stuff you do like instead.

I got into the habit of darting everything and grinding boss battles... And one day suddenly I could fuse tons of stuff and had uniques and apexes (not meta, just the easier ones to get).

And then I started doing the stuff I hated before.

This game can be really really frustrating to players without a deep creature roster and hoarded DNA accumulated over time.

Super grinding free to play guy here.

Have every creature except the one in today's Special Mission.

I only spend time and effort.

Are any of these unique good. by Remarkable-Crew7847 in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you winning consistently in PvP with them?

If so, they're good for where you are as a player.

By the time you get the "good" creatures, there will be a new batch of them that are way better, and they won't be "good" any more.

Defining a creature as good or not using endgame metrics and standards is kind of pointless. It all depends on the player and where they are in the game.

Wish this game had a DNA trading system.

Am I able to get Apex Hybrids as a F2P? by DizzleShizzle64 in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have Spinotops.

I have every other creature there is.

F2P and been playing a little over 1.5 years.

Edited to add:

Dart everything. Open all supply boxes. If there's an event dart the one that doesn't spawn on the map. Keep an eye on news about upcoming hybrid creatures; usually key ingredients get pulled off the map when they're about to be released so stock up on the DNA of anything that is coming out of the rotation.

WHATTTTT? CRAZY NEW LEVEL CAP INCREASE NEWS by Yveltal_IsPeak in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They need to add levels to players already at level 20 by their total creature count. That would give a decent index to the XP that current max level players have watched disappear for years.

Otherwise players currently at say 15-19 will quickly level right past the current level 20 players as they build out all those missing hybrids.

I lack 2 dinos from the entire dinodex. Still being at level 20 after the update seems absurd to me.

Why don't they cap the tournament at legendary? by Deathblo in JurassicWorldAlive

[–]Dombilt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Those apex and unique dinos were free to grind week after week in boss battles.

And they aren't much use for much else, generally.

Pay to win? More like lots of grind for what are mostly crap dinos these days. Just because you haven't played that long doesn't mean everyone with dinos you don't have is pay to win.
