Whats up with s8 upping the anti on the monthly dragon required parts its always been 20,000 now its jumped to 30,000.
And im guessing deadpixels post about crafting two and trading for essence just before this came out had nothing to coincidentally do with it now hummmmm way to go s8 always making it harder to get no where fast

Heavens! I never even noticed the change. So now I might not get the monthly dragon at all because I usually only get about 25,000 pieces per month. I don't activate my second den every week. I guess they're trying to make us do that now. 😡

I thought that it had been so nice of them to increase the symbol awards that they gave out as ?prizes? during the Dragon Tales events. Now we know why :mad:

Funny how S8 pays attention to some things, but ignores other things....:confused:

I agree just trying to make loyal players spend money. I just don’t bother trying for every dragon anymore I won’t pay cash unless it’s something I really want.

Yes..why on earth are they trying to make things harder..too hungry for $$ I assume..but I won't pay out to get a dragon if I can't get it the old way..
I think they are shooting themselves in the foot..will not get the results they want, lets hope....

I usually hit 35000 in a month, so I know I can still make it. Still wish they hadn't changed it though since the option not to play one or two events/tournaments would have been nice. It's asking a lot for players to player all but one event every month

There is really no point in playing anymore when there isn't space to put dragons. They decided to monetize space when it was promised we would always have free space to put all of the dragons.

Yep . No point . I've told so many people never start playing storm 8 games. You won't like the results down the road

So the bar has been shifted again by Storm8, really is anyone surprised, this dubious practice of altering requirements has gone on for years!

Accountability is not one of their strengths, healthy critiques are ignored!

I frankly am no longer concerned about the increase to get the monthly dragon. I feel sorry for the other players however. I am at a point now where I ignore Bingo. Leaderboards are impossible to get the top dragon anymore. Tales and tournaments I usually still play but I am running out of space anyway. Looks like soon I will have to just be leveling up my dragons and occasionally expand so I can continue to play tournaments. I do not want to use my Bingo tokens to buy dragons if there is no space for them. I have played this game for many years but I see where there will be an eventual conclusion for me. I will soon get rid of most of my commons from Tales to get to play some but the expansion requirement is so slow now for me at 50 per new space. It takes ages for me. I was hoping that we would eventually get to use Mystic Maps again as we still get them as prizes but they appear useless. Maybe once we get to the last area? I am not optomistic.

Due to intense frustration with the changes in the game, I took a long break from Dragon Story. I opened the app for the first time in a year to find that the only changes to be found are the raising of requirements in several areas.

Not encouraging! But I promised myself I would play for a month (long enough to complete one of each event) before making my final decision on whether or not to keep the app.

A very large part of me has really missed the game and the satisfaction of adding a new dragon to my collection but the rest of me recalls the near endless frustration of a system not well equipped for long time players. I guess only time will tell at this point...

I didn't make last month's dragon. I think I didn't complete two of the tournaments (I feel like they also amped the tournament difficulty), but I completed all other events. I don't know why I didn't make it. Did they not do the double points at the end of the month? Either way I know I don't have a chance at his month's dragon so not going to try for it. I might even take a bit of a break and just play for breeding and skip all the events.

I didn’t get the monthly dragon last month. I reached 25k points instead of 30k.
Due to this unresponsible increase Im going to miss another dragon this other month even if I ve been playing all events and tournaments.
They only want to make easy money. Im tired of this and Im really near to close this game for never reopen it again.
Expansions are impossible to get, prizes are getting ***********... why should we keep playing? For what?
S8 what a shame!

know the feeling its been same for me also :( i remember a time the forums was buzzing with users nowadays the posts are few and far between , as i think most of the old players just got fed up and cant say for certain if they still play or not theese days but can you blame them tbh , such a shame as well

I'm going to attempt some math here....

24/7 breeding at 14 scarykins per hour is - 10080 (30 days)
Total scarykins prizes in Tales - 3010
Total Scarykins for tournament - 910 (per tournament) 4 tournaments - 3640
Total Scarykins during Community Event - ?
Total Scarykins during Leaderboard - ?

So, totals for what I know are - 16370. This is not including double points for last 5 days (1680 points)

So, community event and leaderboard must be about 6815 in order to his the 30K points. Every previous month, I have hit about 28K points - I complete every event and every tournament. I have, in the past, taken a breeding breather during Tales, so that wasn't quite 24hrs, but I was still breeding. In Sep I suddenly found out we needed 30K and scrambled to get it but it seems an impossible task.

Anyone from S8 want to give a response to this thread or will you forever ignore it? I won't get the monthly dragon again because I couldn't breed a stupid ultra rare dragon for dragon tales. At least before I was able to BARELY make it. I'm assuming if nobody responds, its just another cash grab by s8.

I'm at 20941 Skarykins now.

We have one more event, 8 days. That's 2688 for breeding. If you count the 5 days of double points, that's an additional 1680 points. So 4368 and I need 9059 more. So the event goals needs to give me at least 4691 more scarykins.

Will I make it? I am really not sure. Anyone know how many scarykins we got for World Event? I'm on an android so those numbers don't show, I have to remember to look at my storage right before and right after hitting the milestone and usually forget. Mostly, I don't realize I'm hitting a milestone in the goal until I do...

All of my accounts are a good 8,000 away from hitting the goal, so not planning on getting the Occult dragon on any of them.

Unless the next Dragon Tales yields 4000 skarykins, I have no chance

Amazingly, I will be getting Occult, I think on all 3 accounts, which was far from having enough Scarykins prior to the leaderboard.

I got enough scarykins to get the monthly dragon, I missed some breeding- due to work and used some boosts to get 1st in leaderboard last night and ended today with 30102 or something... so it is doable but not a lot of room for error.

Just a point, I only have one breeding den going.

This is the second time i miss the monthly dragon! I m only able to reach 25k points and I always need last 5k points at the end... what a pity! I play on all the events and tournaments. Any suggestion?

Have the scarykins stopped dropping, I seem to be at a standstill.

Yes, the Scarykins stopped on Tuesday, November 5, when the new Dragon Tales event started and we started earning "North Glows" towards the Crystal Hearth dragon.
Although it shows that you still have 5 days to get the Occult dragon, that is just extra time that they give us to craft it, not to collect more Scarykins. There is a sale that is going ot end in 12 minutes that offers Scarykins, food, and a dragon for $30 US.

I'm so close but 30.00 is too much

Me too, not happy, not going to even bother with tales anymore, too hard and not worth the effort.

Hi everyone, did you notice that qty reqd for crafting monthly dragon is now reduced to 25k . Also previous qty given in tales is restored . I feel , this may be due to initiative taken by Elsa since i had written pm to her. Thanks Elsa And S8
