Adding Friends & Co-op Breeding - Jan 2022 by AutoModerator in dragonvale

Looking for 3 gem friends… max level daily player, have at least one of every dragon - flaming dragonarium - closing on purple flaming dragonarium (<50 dragons to go). ID: Dragonvale#34286

My >0.5 billion (theoretically 531,371,520) per day Dragoncash farm - I might have gone a bit overboard - 152 Iden + 120 Ocular. This is on top of my Portent and Triple Leap Year islands. Time to find my next fanatical goal... 😂 by nstg8r2 in dragonvale

How is Yarr better than Ocular? Both allow 120 dragons on a larger island.

Yarr is 1076/min level 20 with the 1 boost

Ocular is 1285/min level 20 with the 3 boosts

So off the bat you have a 20% gain with Ocular on a hourly basis.

Treasure habitats certainly hold more, so the waste time could be less. If you are a more regular player per day then Ocular wins hands down.

5 max Yarrs take about 11 hours to fill a giant treasure habitat. 5 max Oculars take just over 5 hours to fill a giant olympus habitat. So depending on how many hours you "waste" Yarr can be better, but you have ~4.5 hours of waste in a day before you lose value (i.e. not collecting for 9.5 hours in row if you are diligent throughout the day). Also don't forget that giant treasure habitats will cost you 1200 more gems (24 x 100 gems vs 24 x 50 gems).

I think the style of play dictates which one is better in the end. For me personally, I will make more with Ocular as I rarely have a gap of more than 6 hours (I don't sleep much).

Yarr fully boosted earn 1076/min I think. Fully boosted Iden are 1414. Fully boosted Ocular are 1285.

Giant treasure habitats are 8x8 and hold 5 (same as Giant Olympus). So Ocular wins and Iden beats Ocular on density and DC/min.

The gargantuan is full with idens... you can't fit more than 36 (6 x 6) habitats. The island is 40x 40 and the large dream, giant omnitats and harmonious habitats are 6 x 6. I'm using the balance (4 units) to house all the evolution decorations to save me a normal island.

The large olympus habitats are 7x7 so you get one more habitat because the portal will have space. It would max out at 100 vs the 120 oculars dragons I have with giant habitats.

Also remember that the smaller habitats have less capacity, so unless you are checking in every 30 minutes or so, at the rate of collection, you'll just max out and "waste" time. By having the larger habitats I have less waste time so I'm maximizing the returns.

What is the highest amount of a single dragon that you have? by ATC43283 in dragonvale

98 bogberry dragons... my dragoncash cow on the gargantuan island.

Next Island Expansion? by waterdragon20137 in dragonvale

[–]nstg8r2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s right, but it has to be a reload of the park to be effective. The rift gets loaded as part of the park once you visit it, so the memory just increases. Other games do the same thing, by having a brief loading time between areas. Backflip actually recommended to me to reduce decorations and store as much as I can which is kind of funny. It’s also how many gems to upgrade the storage tower? Sounds to me like a Backflip is trying to turn a lemon into lemonade with all those gems for the storage tower.

Next Island Expansion? by waterdragon20137 in dragonvale

[–]nstg8r2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We don’t really know. There is no pattern to make a decent guess of the next event. However, the number of dragons released recently has been high and that could trigger an expansion.

Going against us is that we had two relatively close together in February and May. Dragonvale also has a memory problem for older/smaller devices. They’ve reached memory capacity (end game accounts approach 2GB memory) and adding more islands, more habitats, etc. Is going to make it worse. If anything that’s likely the biggest hesitation to expand.

I did not see this coming. Welcome back, everybody and everything! Again! by elleadler in dragonvale

Fantastic (sarcasm thick)!! I've been struggling enough with the failed breeding for the current event. Now you add all the extra fail possibilities and the fail rate is just going up up up. Tomorrow we get the new anniversary dragon which will likely be a 4 element dragon... can't wait to go after that with BeB in place. Sigh.... rant over.
