Question: How many duplicates are you holding onto?

I was planning on doing an inventory here shortly after I finished evolving all of my dragons. Only had 3 Serpents left and my Pumpkin and Cheshire dragons ( which I refuse to evolve ). But I recently just got a Dark Angel ( YAY ) going for a Troll Dragon, so I decided to do the inventory to see which dragons I'd sell to make room. I'm currently at Habitat Cap and have almost all my dragons ( 141 ), even my duplicates at max level.

So here's what my island looks like ( Click Spoiler below to view images ):

That's the habitat / location breakdown. Here's the list of types and amounts, easier to see how many duplicates I have... 1 dragon ( unless noted ) Colored green = common dragons Bolded to make duplicates easier to see.


Fire

Forest
Water

So from that list you can see I have a mass swarm of Tuskers, but I'll probably get rid of 3 Genies to make room for a new Black Habitat for my new Dark Angel dragon.

I could really use trading and crafting... I have 57 duplicates if I counted right. 3 dragons per habitat would mean 19 habitats are just wasting space where I could decorate better and really reduce my lag. I was wondering how bad it is for others. This is mostly directed towards Android since we kind of have to hold onto our dragons ( or just sell them, Yuck! ) but iOS can answer too if you are holding onto a bunch for whatever reasons.

I can't even fathom how many dragons I've sold that I could've traded instead since I would have only needed to feed them to level 4 instead of raising all my dragons to level 10.

Anyways, let me know your thoughts!

Don't know exactly but I think I've got at least 6 habitats of them. Left my duplicates at level 4. I would sell them, if I can get the gemstone/diamond hybrids easily. Unfortunately, I can go weeks without getting any new dragons so I believe they'll be staying around for quite a while.

My duplicates are:
babies - left and right hearts, familiar, tusker, griffin, parakeet, crusader , serpent
level 4 - atlantis, landworm, mindvolt, 2 virtues (just keeping them because I'm missing Naga, Kitsune, Quartz, Kite), bubble, honeybee, scorpion, 2 extra fireworks (well, one is epic, one is level 4 and one is level 7), 1 stone, saturn (well, didn't get eclipse, might as well keep an extra)

wow, I thought I had less. Lol. Some I'm keeping just because, but there are others I don't wanna sell...Like the Hearts and fireworks. :/ and Saturn, that one doesn't need to leave.

59 duplicates here. I keep them mostly for the money. I'm nearly maxed out on habitats and have only got 80 different types of dragon, so it seems silly to have lots of empty spaces when I can fill up habitats with duplicates and make more money!

Some duplicates will be traded out for gems, but mostly they will be sold off once I need the space, or to replace with a higher earning duplicate. My favorite duplicates are my 3 spare aethers and second crusader :) So far 58 duplicates are still only at levels 1,2 & 3 as I've so many 'keepers' I'm trying to evolve, LOL.

I did a rough count of my duplicates and the number is somewhat over 60. I cannot bother to be very specific because I'd waste such a lot of time, and I have kids to take care of IRL,

Some of them like my duplicate gemstones or fairytales I keep because it would bother me to sell them for a mere 100 coins. The others O started keeping to fill the habitats -more coins and replace them with duplicate rares or super rares. The duplicates change a bit depending on what I'm trying to breed and the fails I get. I wish I could do something useful with the duplicates I have.

This was a pain. Just pressing on my habitats to see the dragons, my game crashed 18 times because I'm Android. However, throughout all the frustration, I did get a list of what I'm working with per habitat color.

Red
Fire, Titan, Eagle, Mirage, Eagle, Love

Yellow
Scorpion, Four-Leaf, Mindvolt, Elf, Leopard, Honeybee, Easter, Parakeet, Air, Clown, Firework, Mirage

Green
Landworm, Parakeet, Dawntree, Forest, Elf, Mermaid, Aurora, Serpent, Summer, Snowman, Atlantis, Aurora

Blue
Super, Aether, Summer, Water, Athletic, Ice Cream, Super, Super, Mermaid, Seabreeze, Mirage, Aurora

Purple
Magic, Wizard, Trickster, Mistmoth, Aurora, Aether, Mirage, Titan, Wizard, Titan, Mistmoth, Super, Familiar, Wizard, Planet

White
Light, Luck, Tusker, Caesar, Griffin, Pegasus, Tusker, Sunrise, Dream, Luck, Ice Cream, Luck, Tusker, Ice Cream, Sunrise, Winter, Sunrise, Hypnotic, Luck, Caesar, Tiny, Laserlight, Fuzzy, Ice Cream

Black
Night, Hunter, Night, Illusion, Illusion, Illusion, Illusion, Bat

Pink
Virtue, Kite, Justice, Mask, Chocolate, Virtue, Origami, Justice, Virtue, Flower, Tiny, Bubbles, Virtue, Origami, Tiny

Diamond
Diamond, Angel, Crusader, Quetzal

Cosmic
Cosmic, Cosmic

Mythic
Mythic, Atlas, Medusa

Fairytale
Fairytale, Cheshire, Fairytale

Rainbow
Rainbow

Gemstone
Gemstone, Ruby

Stone

So going by my list, my duplicates are: Titan x3, Eagle x2, Mirage x3, Elf x2, Parakeet x2, Aurora x4, Aether x2, Summer x2, Super x4, Wizard x3, Mistmoth x2, Mermaid x2, Ice Cream x4, Luck x3, Tusker x3, Caesar x2, Sunrise x3, Tiny x3, Illusion x4, Night x2, Virtue x4, Cosmic x2, Fairytale x2

So if my addition is right, then I have 40 duplicates with no storage to take advantage of. :-P

I'm an Android user. I have 136 unique, epic dragons ( only missing Boo, Zombie, Witch and Turkey ). The only duplicate I currently have is Leo, because I'm tying to get Virgo. I get rid of duplicates, even diamond hybrids: 1 Infinity, 4 Gold, 3 Angel, 2 Mercury, 4 Anubis and 1 Crusader. Without crafting what is the purpose of having duplicates? Unless you are a low level user trying to collect more coins

I've got 135 dragons in total and have 2 duplicates. A baby Moon and a baby Angel. I would sell those if I needed to, but would prefer to keep the Angel if I could :)

I was thinking about this one quite a while. Would I keep duplicates if I were iOS? And the answer is a maybe. The reason I want all of my dragons gone is because I'm on Android and it would help with the lag and just navigating around my island.

If I didn't have lag issues and could navigate around freely I may decide that my coin output would not be high enough and actually keep duplicates. As it is right now the only duplicate I would really want is the Pumpkin dragon, I love the baby form but wouldn't mind the Juvenile and Epic forms.

I used to log in all the time and would :: gasp :: visit neighbors too, but that was early in the game when I didn't have so many habitats and didn't decorate heavily, navigating around was cumbersome but liveable. Now I log in check my evolutions & breeding den and log out. I rarely collect food and coins now just because of how much of a pain it is to move around.

I think ideally ( in a non-laggy world ) I may keep 20 or so duplicates ( if my coin output was deemed too low for my tastes ). It would give me enough coins, room to decorate and not lag me to the point I wouldn't want to log into the game.

I have between 40-50 duplicates. Keep them for the coins. A few because I really like them. I already made a list of dragons to get rid of as the need for space arises. I also did a habitat breakdown for my island and put each of them in the highest earning situation possible :) Until I get dragons that I don't already have I will keep my duplicates.

I also did a habitat breakdown for my island and put each of them in the highest earning situation possible :)

I did that a while back and more than doubled my hourly earnings.

I have 2 duplicates - a second fire, and a second mythic, and I don't remember if I have a second Cosmic (since I couldn't get the hybrids).

The title says it all.
I like to keep only one of each dragon(just like moderators say"no copies").

One! I don't like getting duplicates even if it's a dragon I like.

Except for Parakeet and its too cute to be true baby. Might sell him one day but not today. Oh and also I keep all diamond types - I have two Diamonds +one in the breeding den and four Crusaders.

I have 29 duplicates at the moment. It was an exclusive list of Retired and Super Rares until the big habitat increase. Now I'm keeping everything to evolve once for mining and trading. I'm waiting to max out habitats until I actually get some new dragons.

I am on ios, but I hate to "sell" a dragon if I can feed, evolve and trade him away, but those virtues with 33 hour evolve time, i usually give up and sell those as it is I have over 2 months straight of evolution time backed up, I just can't keep up. I even made a spreadsheet [I am a little OCD] that helps, so I try to time it where one comes out another goes in, still it takes time I refuse to use gold to speed up evolution unless, there is an immediate need of the dragon in there

My only duplicate is a level 3 eagle, I'm waiting to evolve it.

123 dragons and only 2 clones:). One hunter and one forestfire. Ill get rid of those too if ill ever need space. I dont like duplicates and i dont see their purpose as long as TL gives us like 2-3 new dragons/ week. And i love those islands full of unique dragons. But ofc this is just my opinion.
