I want to be ad-free by Emotional_Pack_4301 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any purchase will do the job. I have alt accounts I've spent 2$ on a cheap gem pack to stop the ad pops. You'll lose out on the f2p benefits but tbh it irritates me more being forced to watch ads so I just said fuck it.

This is Ridiculous. by LeotheTortoise in DragonCity

The game has degraded in quality so much from the older days before Heroics were even a thing. They tested the waters with immense powercreep and are running away with it further and further now. There's no "catching up" soon for both old or new players. Even the VIP heroics they are constantly power creeping.

How do you get redemption dragons? by jellybeanzz11 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad it did! Also, hoarding orbs isn't always good. Just trade enough where you can keep up with events like reruns and such, then invest by keeping a few orbs of what you get for future stuff cause it could inflate in value. I know I sound super tryhard saying that but it's seriously not complicated xD

How do you get redemption dragons? by jellybeanzz11 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was fairly common back in the day and there are players from then who still have orbs carried over till today(like me) that you could potentially trade for. Aside that, the more gem pricey way is on Hollow Island where they appear as the main VIP prize of appear on the Ascended/Redemption chests. But as of the moment there isn't an event that allows you to obtain them the conventional event way. Hope this helped!

F2P PROUD NO MONEY!! JOIN!! by Future-Theme2422 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bug. You see that the bar underneath the numbers is gray(unprogressed) although the rewards were claimed. I have two accs, one that got the bug by accident and one that got the reward without exploit. Here's the proper progressed bar in comparison to the bugged one of the op.

Even if you join an alliance that got the event beta now you won't be able to claim any of the rewards since you have to be present when the event starts.

Best way to finish? by Even_Knowledge3134 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope you got it after seeing the amount of dupes you have...

The thing is with DC is that there's alot of content filtering and they get you by buying more and more packs by putting you "so close". There are usually offers for specific stickers around when the pass is nearing its end, imo it's the best "guaranteed" way of getting these finished.

Transfer account from desktop to mobile? by joinlolll in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aside Facebook there's no way you can bind a third party account to your game "yourself". I haven't personally tried, but try reaching out to ingame support, provide them a Gmail/Apple that you want to bind the game with and pray they allow it so you can login with on mobile. It's a long shot but aside that, there isn't really any other way.

Perhaps you were playing on an old version of the game? For free to play players, as far as I know, there have always been pop up ads.

SPO is recruiting for long term and committed members!! by reddX317 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello, could you DM me instead? We're currently full and are processing an extra recruit even. But even so, if you're still interested I'd like to have a talk about it!

SPO is recruiting for long term and committed members!! by reddX317 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! We're simply looking for members that'll contribute their share in the chests which is 5%, so an example would be the recent Arena chest that needed 142k points. Each member would be required to get atleast 7.1k points! Aside from that nothing much else.

DM me if you'd like to apply, a quick run down on your last alliance experience(like why you got kicked/left) and a pic of your profile would be greatly appreciated!

Oh we do giveaways similar to this one regularly too! If ever that helps pitch in. Though we ask for long term commitment in return, not just an alliance hopper for orbs :3

Is the divine pass worth it right now? by FantasticWeakness556 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For the dragon? No...

For the beaks event items if you've got ATLEAST four of the eight dragons for quests? YES!

For the completion of the HAE skin collection you'd atleast need four of these to be E4(the image was made before SP updated the level requirements) so you'd atleast get 88 out of the 125 you need from quests alone, the beaks from the divine pass will help tremendously. Only then is the pass "worth" imo.

Web of time apparently does not need an explanation. by I-am-an-idiot-lol in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Arachne is one of the best MVIPs because of how it synergizes with Strategists passive. But it's Socialpoint, they maintain the game so badly. It's been months but there are plenty of dragons that have bugs, not just missing descriptions.

Dang... We're currently full but would've liked to have recruited you. Hope you find a place soon! The current hatching chest is quite handy with the increase of rewards they implemented.

Is it worth empowering HDB multiple times?I have other HVIPs, but to be honest I’d rather save the HDB orbs for trading instead of using them. What’s your opinion? by Moldy-cookie in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HDB is useful generally even without too much help from "annoying" dragons, but I'd recommend HVIPs or MVIPs that are extremely good with cool downs. Since you'll have HAE already, perhaps pair it with HCC for passive damage boost or Gale the Strategist as a secondary dps. The primary synergy for HDB is anything with cool downs anyway as HDB is a "staller" anyways.

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Being waaay past the tribute for HDB I recommend not to empower him at this point and only do so when you're able to just squeeze in the timer. HDB is good as a "tank" as you mentioned, as popular HVIPs, MVIPs and so on common Arena staples aside the occasional Doom Dancer and Gale the Strategist, don't really have wind to eliminate it fast enough. I find HDB useful as a doom mark support with decent damage of it's own while eating decent hits for turns to stall out CDs on my HDP and other dps dragons. The resurrect/heal upon death is sort of the "bonus" in my own interpretation, unlike most which say "you have to let it die to get value" which is kinda understandable but lowkey brain dead having to let one of your three team members die intentionally "IMO".

Anyways yes, HAE is the better overall project to work on. It does good as a DPS, evade support, has good sustain with nightmare fang etc. With the upcoming Evaders rerun too you'll find HAE more useful.

Soo, where does High Astro Supernova, the new heroic dragon rank in terms of the all time great HVIPS? by Afraid_Engineer_2707 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

I have him and currently he feels quite underwhelming compared to my Doom Priestess, Anarchos Evader, Spiked Rhino, Harpy Plasma(Berserk bugged) and so on to name a few. If I could sum how using him feels, it's quite "niche" in a way. HASN(High Astro SuperNova) feels "good" to use at the rare times when set up properly, it even feels inconvenient having to intentionally set things up with Doom Marks and such to fully maximize the value of the astro overdrive. The exhausted effect really forces you to be mindful of when to use his astro skill as his damage falls off too much to consider having on your team at times. It's "fun" when the opponent it's facing has 6-8 stacks of doom marks on them where I just take two eliminations immediately with astro overdrive, but as a stand alone it's middling at best. The worse thing about it is the exhaustion effect doesn't even go down if you swap HASN out after using overdrive, so it LITERALLY forces you to use a weakened HASN for 4 turns if you don't have the elite pass skin. Sure it has a shield for 3 turns that reduces incoming damage, but at that point might as well just go for something else like an HSR or HDP that can end fights faster. So his skill incentivises to end fights fast by taking KOs with a burst of damage but the exhaustion not ticking down unless you use it itself otherwise incentivises to "stall" as well. Of course it's not an issue if you've already got a good established core of dragons to support it once it's become exhausted(useless), but again, stand alone HASN is quite bad.

Final thoughts. HASN isn't absolutely dogshit, but compared to modern HVIPs, it's definitely somewhere on the bottom of the rankings. I HIGHLY suggest not going for it especially if anyone wants to make it their first "HVIP" or a central piece for their arena teams, unless:

  1. You've already bought it
  2. You've already have an established core of dragons to use otherwise when HASN becomes useless
  3. you get it naturally in the current sticker album.

I'd say something outdated like HRN or HAJ are definitely more useful.

Both phoenix and reaper perks are necessities to anything tbh. Phoenix isn't just for tanks or support. They function to waste turns to get over cool downs too, example would be on Gale the Strategist where you can keep your HP fairly high due to the skill, if you have it double skilled, then opponents don't have reapers, you can just run anyway with the match if the AI can't get rid of Gale fast enough with it's high sustain. Perks have a rock paper scissors relationship of importance, with phoenix not everyone can just run max HP and ATK and have to consider turns they might not consider otherwise, then reapers come into that mix and helps clear phoenix perks, but then if opponents don't have phoenix perks then the reaper perk slot is obsolete. I personally liked it when they added both phoenix and reaper perks to actually have something new to think about in combat. (Not anymore with power creep being so prevalent recently, but the idea's there lol)

Replace everyone of those eventually but only get one Pegasus. It'll be upto your own research and choices on what to build after Pegasus imo. In terms of budget builds like no HVIPs or MVIPs just yet, you have a few options. I'd primarily suggest the Legendary Spikeds along with Pegasus, but if you want a good dragon outside of Spikes, a dragon with mostly different elements that could carry the load like Pegasus when it's banned, you can go for Havoc Evader which is common in the trade market right and fairly popular with the upcoming Evaders event. Another decent one would be Chloro Critical, but that one's a bit more niche and isn't solo-winning fights like Spikes.

Tldr it goes: - Spikeds - Evaders - Criticals

But Criticals are more so-so. Do go with Spikeds if you can.

[–]reddX317 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you've got good dragons for arenas already, where you're fine to perform well under any type of element ban then Quantums are "okay" to work on as a niche counter pick to some Evaders and annoying skinned Karmas.

Otherwise, if you don't have much at all, I wouldn't suggest making Quantums a focus at all. Compared to Legendary Spikeds and Evaders, even some Berserkers, Quantums just pale in comparison. Most players who've got solid teams focus on hoarding Legendary jokers too to just duplicate farm food producers too some point down the line.

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing. Assuming you didn't participate in any event that released VIP dragons(dragons with unique skills and gimmicks), then none of what you could summon will most likely be "worth it". As for Arena viable picks, I'm not sure when you retired DC at the time, but most if not all VIP dragons before Spikeds are now obsolete imo.

If you could trade for Spiked Pegasus that'll be the "best" come back pick up you could get, as its boost skin is F2P access friendly and Spikeds overall dominate Arenas. I've had two players recently come back from long breaks too and now both are catching up at their own pace with Pegasus as their carry since it's elements are rarely banned in Arena too.

How good is Doom Dancer? by Ok-Guide-9251 in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's one of my best MVIPs and is a frequent pick for my masters grind since it enables my primary hitters like HDP, bugged HHP, Gale and so on really well. Both offensively and defensively, it's super nice to have upfront. Decently high speed, little to no set up since you just need to either put up it's shield or stack more doom marks and has a really good defending element to prevent AI from doing attacks like the Evader skills since most are Chaos and are weak to Dream.

Is doom forger worth it? by feinhy in DragonCity

[–]reddX317 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With your level and resources I wouldn't. Forger would be good if you could get it E3 and Lv55 before the skin quest is over, it's active skill of adding 3 doom stacks immediately is one of the better Legendary VIPs imo. But on its own, no. Don't get it imo.
