Experiment Results
First I would like to thank all of those who took the time and submitted their information. AkumaNeko, Sunnybabi1986, MissStateGirl, Goughy999, Dapplefur, Empress2013, Kwhales, NeferTekas, Horntail21, and a few others. There were 13 people/Accounts that participated in this Experiment. I hope for the next Experiment we can get more involved. Because of the small number ALL the results should be taken with a grain of salt. I know some people will read this and say how I am wrong because ?I was able to get this result so yours can?t be right?. For those I say there is an exception to every rule and PARTICAPATE next time, it only helps.
For those reading this with no idea what it?s about here is a quick recap. We decided to do an experiment to see if anything and if so what affects breeding. We took a 24 hour period, set a few guidelines for everyone to follow (Not everyone did but its ok) and picked a dragon to breed. It was this week?s LE
There will be 3 numbers for every result. First will be for those who followed the protocol. Second will be for those who did not (only rushed breeders removed from main group) and the third will be the combined total
OK So enough talk here is the results!
1. How many were able to breed Pumpkins? 4 of the 13 people/accounts were able to breed a Pumpkin. By group it?s 3/11 for C.G. and 1/2 for N.C.G. for a total of 4/13
1a- Percentages: 21 total breedings from C.G. 3/21 for 14.3%
1b- 8 total breeding from N.C.G. 1/8 for 12.5%, for a group total of 4/29 at 13.7%
SO that put the total group chances of getting a Pumpkin at 14%. What was interesting is if you add in the other dragons Born you had a 27% chance of breeding a Rare or Super rare dragon, or so I thought I will get back to this later. To round up the rest of the results there were 21 Fire Storms, 2 Scorpions, 1 Honey bee and 1Eagle.
2. Did game level affect breeding?
The group was too small to get a definitive answer on this but no one under 20 and no one over 60 bred a Pumpkin.
3. Did the order you placed your dragons in effect breeding?
Again too small to tell but out of the four who bred the Pumpkin it was an even split 2/2. That also goes for Dragon Level. Out Of the 4 success stories 2 used Epics and the other 2 were NON Epics so for now I say no to both.
4. Did the amount of Nest owned play a factor?
Not this time because I asked people not to RUSH BREED, but it will in the future. Fact is the more nests you own the more you can breed, not wait and save gold.
5. Why do I breed some dragons so easily and have a very hard time with others?
This was by far the most interesting result. I asked for everyone to give me the rares and super rares they have a tendency to breed the most. From this it seems that we are all given One Element maybe Two that we have a better chance at or a higher percentage chance of breeding.
Out of the 13 I came up with 2 water, 2 forest, 1NA, 4 air and 4 air/fire.
Those who were forest bred ALL Firestorms. Those who were water bred 1 pumpkin and 4 Firestorms. Out of the other 9 people/accounts 7 bred something other than a Firestorm. So I DEFINATLY believe that we all get an element and it affects breeding.
6. Does the time we breed and the amount we breed affect breeding?
Maybe and yes. Out of the 4 who bred the Pumpkin 3 got it on their first try. Also 3 of the 4 were Air or Air/Fire element breeders. They also bred it within the first 10 minutes of the update. Hmmmmm
Also if you miss it on your first try you Definitely won?t get it your second try. Not a single person was able to breed a Pumpkin on their second try and 12 of 13 were Firestorms. So I will say if you don?t get it your first try you won?t get until the third and beyond if you are.
7. Does the dragons Born name play a part in breeding?
Again To small of a test group to tell but out of the 4 who did breed the pumpkin 2 Air dragons had the name Cloud. One Skye and one Nepha. Both Clouds we able to breed the Pumpkin on their first try. Both were also Air Element. So for now I leave this as possible.
That is all for now thanks for reading and if anyone liked this and wants me to do another just let me know.
