if i got all 3 eggs but i didn't hatch any of them just yet

can i still get a 4th egg if all 3 in my inventory???

or do i need to start the hatching process in order to get that 2nd egg of that type?

wanna know if i can send to Pyre Caverns adventure

there is no point of sending if i can wait and save resources for later use when i will start the hatching process

but if i can get that 4th egg now then thats what i wanna know


From what I'm seeing from another post you have to hatch them before getting another egg and the of you don't finish the quest line you can hatch more then one of each egg I finished the quest line so I am unable to hatch more eggs hope this helps you can only hold one. Egg I your inventory at a time.

First post. No egg still ,... :( and I'm going on adventures every 3 hours or so. Are success rates for eggs determined by completed quests, goals, etc? discovered this forum and started using recently! :) Needles to say I'm hooked but behind on goals etc as per my level would dictate. Any suggestions ?

It's possible to hatch more than one Ultramarine eggs if you don't complete its quest line. Here are my two Matrix dragons:

Thank you!! I finished the quest line so I'm done lol ooooooh now I wish I hadn't :(

This is a limited time event and as far as we know at this moment, these dragons will not be available elsewhere. In 6 months time there will be new players coming to the game complaining it's not fair that they can't get these dragons because they started playing too late, just like we see with people who started playing after Valentines 2013 with reference the Love Shack.



I've been wondering about whether these dragons will become gem purchase items after the quest is over. Yes, the love shack was strictly limited time only, but many other timed quest items are now available for gem purchase - the kingdom inn, reindeer stable, harvest pergola and glimmerbat habitat.

I'm curious how the purchase price for those completed items compared with how many gems people paid to get missing items before those quests ended.

And those items, when gem purchased, came fully built without the need for additional resources. I wonder, IF the dragons become available for purchase after the quest, whether they will be sold as eggs requiring lots of resources for hatching, or be already hatched baby dragons.

Anybody else care to speculate?

I have that page in my book right now.... Since I only have 1 diamond of the 5 needed, it gives me the option to skip for 40 gems, so I assume that means they're 10 gems each. I'm not sure if I were to skip (which I'm not gonna do lol), if it would GIVE me the diamonds or not...hope that helps

I have 4 white diamond ,I wait a bit to see if another drops thanks

Well you can buy the eggs 200 gems each (with bypassing the initial quest with gems). I think this would be the cheapest way to "buy" these dragons in case you wont have the eggs at the end. (But until, do as many adventures as many you can.)

So, if any time these dragons would be available as gem purchase, they may be more expensive. Now a regular dragon costs 350, mithril 400.

Also, you dont have to pay more gems to hatch the eggs, coz the adventure (which hatches it) will never expire (the timed parts do, but as said before timed parts do not have to finish to move forward)

I'm confused about the mention of the Polaris quest. It got taken away long ago after the holiday event ended... Somebody he'll me out with info please! Also I'm thinking that all I want to focus on is getting all three eggs in my possesion. So... If that's my goal then shouldn't I just keep adventuring or trying to as I'm very short on mithril and jewels which are needed for acquiring mithril in the exchange... I have the pyre egg so far.

No, you're not wasting your time. The discussion about more than one egg is in regard to the same type of dragon. You can have one of each of the 3 eggs in your inventory.

Can you explain this? Hatching the egg completes the quest line and you have to hatch to place the dragon in your kingdom. So how do you hatch multiple matrix dragons without hatching them? Or am I missing something here? Thanks.

The Polaris North adventure is part of the process for hatching the ultramarine egg, to acquire Forever Snow. I had limited resources so I did the Polaris adventures while gathering more of what I needed for the pyre adventure.

This is true for the pyre egg and sparkling egg. Both hatch during the quest and can only be done once. The ultramarine egg is hatched in the magic forge, and it's possible to hatch more than one egg if the quest for the first egg isn't completed.

Oh that would be nice to have an answer for! If they do go on gem sale I will be disappointed because I did use gem for resources to get the dragons.

Reporting in with statistics - got the pyre egg on my 5th adventure and just got the ultramarine on my 12th. I'm going to do the four Polaris North adventures because at the moment I can only go into the Pyre Caverns three more times. I had 44 hot chocolates and one gingerbread left over from last winter so only need to cook Gingerbreads.

I've saved up 11 Treasure Troves and will get a few more from the caverns once I'm done going to Polaris North so am going to try for the 200 jewels. I'll ask my gift exchange friends to start sending jewels. Not sure if I'll bother with a second jeweler; have to check the initial building requirements. It might be more efficient to just chop rocks since I can afford plenty. I did just build a second conservatory for the seeds; put it in place of my second library. I already built a second greenhouse for Belladonna. I don't have a barracks so all my trips are via the Queen's Castle.

After my four trips, there will still be 5 or 6 days left to get the Faberge egg (sorry, forgot its official title). Then at worst I can always buy that one with the gems I've earned from trying out other games. And while I'm going to Polaris I can stock up on seeds (currently out) and craft light armor, vital extract, and Enchanter's essence, which are also out. In the meantime I'm also stocking up on the glimmer resources needed for Belladonna's inscriptions.

I love this game although TL might not love me since I don't buy gems. Thanks TL!! And thanks to all of you on this forum for the tips and tricks; they really help me plan and anticipate. I've been playing on my ITouch for about a year and a half and my only serious wish is that I could play it on my Kindle Fire HD. Everything's so teeny tiny on the Touch!

Is the Polaris adventure still available on barracks or something?? Because I have not had the option of doing that quest for...months. Also I've been reason peoples posts here and there but I wish a mod would answer. I don't understand that it says we have unlimited time to hatch eggs once this is all over but then why must we hatch one before we can get another egg ?!!! I want to know for sure...

The Polaris event is triggered in your castle during the ultramarine egg hatching series. It stays there until you complete four trips and then disappears again.

You won't see the Polaris adventure until you have the ultramarine egg. If you have the pyre egg or any of the other eggs, you can get the other eggs that you don't have without hatching the one you do have. What you're reading is about hatching one egg before getting another of the same type of egg. (Like 2 ultramarine eggs)

The 40 forever snow that was listed on post #4 was incorrect (and has since been edited out) - you don't get any forever snow for completing 4 adventures, but what you do get is 8-12 forever snow per adventure that you do, so once you've done 4, you should have between 32 and 48 forever snow in total, which is why you have 38.

Well if they did go into the market they are likely to cost more than 200 gems which is what you need to pay to skip the part of the goal which needs the rare drop of the egg but if they did put them in the market it may look odd and be open to complaints considering this has been advertised as a limited timed event to collect these dragon eggs.

If I was to speculate :D I would guess that they may have more different type dragons for us planned for the future, or maybe other animals/buildings which are limited and exclusively for those who are able to play at the time they are made available.


It encourages long term committed players rather than the casual because you can't buy the items at a later date if you were not around to play at the time. This is very effective in Dragon Story (and other non-TL games)

This is why I think they probably won't because it could be open up to complaints from people who have spent money/time/resources on something advertised as limited.


Edit to say, the pink alicorn was in the market to buy at the same time as the limited quest so everyone knew they had a choice to pay more and skip all the work.

Good question! For the moment the ability to craft gingerbread men and hot chocolate still remains in my kitchen and the trade is still in the exchange. I thought both would disappear after I handed over the 50 forever snow but it didn't. It may disappear after the entire quest line is finished though. (Feed twice)

Started the 200 jewel thing half an hour ago. I had 99 jewels and ten treasure troves. After chopping them and collecting from jewelers and mines, I have 146 jewels with coal to craft 8 more. Since I will keep collecting troves and can start chopping rocks, it seems entirely possible to get 46 more jewels over the next couple of days. Hope this is helpful info to people considering whether to attempt it.

Despite the fact that I've only received the Pyre egg, I am finding this timed quest lots of fun. Yes, it is eating into my resources--fortunately, I had a number of vital essences and some dragon scales and mithril that got me started.

I understand that people may feel that the drop rates are "unfair", but that seems to be me inherent in the drops being random.

I just got my second egg (ultramarine), I got both from the queens court. It took 22 quests 23 if you count the first one to set off the quests. I'm off to Polaris north. Keep on trucking everyone. My last post I was crying and now I am re-motivated. In 8 days this will all be over and we can get back to normal. It's a long weekend here plus our wedding anniversary and of course this lovey new quest!

You are so right! We still have 7 days! We've all got this! Happy Anniversay! It's mine too!!! Yay too us!

Ok, I am so depressed. I have refrained from complaining about my lack of receiving eggs or this whole rare drop rate. Got a pyre egg after 20ish trips, yeah for me. Last night I only needed 3 pyre crystals to hatch my egg. On my adv I received 2 pyre Crystal and the ultramarine egg...yeah for me again!! Couple things. First the quest to hatch the egg started automatically. I would have waited to start the quest since I am leaving town, but OK I can deal. I did not have enough gingerbread to Adv to Polaris North so I went to my kitchen and stated baking. Meanwhile I did another Pyre cave adventure. All was good in my Kingdom so I settled for good nights sleep.
I woke early today excited to get my gingerbread and start the adv to Polaris North. First I collected from my castle but the Pol North Adv wasn't there so I looked at my quest and it still said I did not have the Ultramarine egg?!?!
Maybe I dreamed the whole thing? So desperate for another egg I imagined it all. Well, I took a trip to my kitchens and what did I have, 2 gingerbread. So what happened!? I thought maybe there was a glitch and when I collected again from my castle it would be there. Nope. HELP!!

Oh Evritta, that sucks! I hope TL can find your egg. Or that you get it again soon.

Still adventuring here. Down to my last Mithril but doing the exchange in hope to get some more, last time it didn't. I am going to keep questing till the days are done, I mean one of these days I will get my other two, right? Right?

With the reideat i was stingy onmy FREE gems, and ended up with nothing. This time, i send t a quest even if it costs me 8 gems every other quest or two out of three. Still waiting on two eggs but hoping for the best. Missing three pyre crystals and i am ready to hatch flare.
Am i frustrated,a bit, but i am also having fun. My kitchens are sitting in wait for instructions, and in the mean time i am stockpiling flour and sugar and chocolate. My workshops and potion shops are inactive for fear of using some resource that will be necessary the minute i finally get the eggs.
But i am having a blast.
Now if the seeds would just drop, all would be well.

05-25-14, 10:35 AM
Right, knuffel!

Guys, I am so excited! After three jewelers exchanges yesterday that did not yield a mithril, I thought I was headed for a second day of not being able to do the adventure... and then my deep mine dropped a mithril! So I was able to go on an adventure this morning and I got the pyre egg! Yay!!!!!! I was really worried I would not get any eggs, I am just thrilled to get this.

I sent my knights out on one of regular adventure yesterday and they brought back a few gems, so I am able to go on one more pyre adventure now! And if I am really lucky, maybe my latest jeweler's trade will bring back a mithril and that will get me a third adventure today!

Good luck everyone!

Anger and disbelief had just set in. I'd worn out the Pyre Caverns and significantly depleted all my resources. Why does it always seem like I am the chosen unlucky one. The decision had already been made that I'm packing my own lunch next week to transfer funds from my lunch budget to my gem budget. And then...

...on adventure #27, my second egg dropped, the Ultramarine. I can now work the egg quest line and give my Pyre Caverns a rest, building up some resources for my search for egg #3.

Hang in there everyone.

The fact that you had the recipe unlocked in the kitchen to make the gingerbread will prove that you had collected the egg and started the quest.

I suggest you take a screenshot of the gingerbread in your inventory showing the page it is on. The fact that it is on one of the top pages will prove that it has recently been made (and not from last christmas).

Then you can put in a ticket with TL with the screenshot and hopefully they can give you back your egg and open up the adventure again. Good luck with it.



And for everyone a reminder for everyone to always force close your game before collecting an adventure or anything important such as a rare drop. Force closing stops the app being idle in the background and gets it to reload properly and sync with the servers. If you just open your game and start playing, the game is not necessarily ready for play because it has not loaded and synched with the server.


To force close on IOS, double tap the home button and swipe the app upwards

Does anyone know what these dragons drop? I am soooo lucky I got one egg I am sooo sorry for those that havent(: I will be able to try a couple more times as I won't have the necessary items to go adventuring. I already spent a few gems Bc I didn't have any dragons scales to start this. I won't be spending anymore tho. It's disappointing when you see "full on Pyre Egg". Why can't we get the eggs we don't have if the adventure was lucky enough to drop an egg . Sorry to complain for those that don't even have any. Again;

What do the dragons drop?

So I didn't read through the entire postings (106+ pages at this point), but I just realized yesterday that I was doing something dumb and could be more effective with a few quick additions in trying to get my second and third dragons.

I realized that the Greenhouse was a resource building and I could have 2 of them, so I moved some things around and built a second one. The other thing that I realized is that I only had 2 conservatories, but 4 libraries and I'm not using my libraries for anything, so i built 2 more conservatories to get additional piles of seeds and stored the libraries. If it's still a problem, I'll add 2 more. Living wood is starting to be a pain so I got one of those trees too which helps a little bit, but 2 or 3 every 4 hours is hardly enough for these adventures, so saving energy to hack lots of trees these days.

So if anyone else wasn't paying attention, thought I'd just share those quick thoughts in case it helps anyone.

You have to be done with 4 Polaris adventure in kings/queen then that disappears. Then Polaris goes to exchange for three hours

Urgh, 22 adventures and no more eggs. Perhaps 30 adventures won't be enough for all three eggs ?!?!
It was stated that 1 adventure per day should be enough to get at least 1 egg. So 30 adventures doesn't promise all 3 eggs, but *should* yield at least one.


Does anyone else find the time restriction a little unfair to those of us who don't have any dragons yet? The very first challenge requires dragon scales which you can only get from a dragon?!? I am still in the process of getting my first dragon and I'm pretty sure I won't be finished that quest by the end of this week. Is there any other way to acquire dragon scales that I don't know about?
The way I got my first dragon scale was from a St Patrick's day rainbow thingy.


You may not have more than one egg OF EACH NEW TYPE at a time. If you hatch an egg, you may receive another.
^^Fixed it! :D


Am I wasting time going to pyre adv with one egg in inventory?
Not if you want the other eggs.


I hatched my dragons but the quest line remains incomplete. Here's how it looks:

As long as I don't feed my baby Matrix dragons the craft to hatch Ultramarine eggs, the snow exchange and the lapis lazuli adventure remain.

Ok, I am so depressed. I have refrained from complaining about my lack of receiving eggs or this whole rare drop rate. Got a pyre egg after 20ish trips, yeah for me. Last night I only needed 3 pyre crystals to hatch my egg. On my adv I received 2 pyre Crystal and the ultramarine egg...yeah for me again!! Couple things. First the quest to hatch the egg started automatically. I would have waited to start the quest since I am leaving town, but OK I can deal. I did not have enough gingerbread to Adv to Polaris North so I went to my kitchen and stated baking. Meanwhile I did another Pyre cave adventure. All was good in my Kingdom so I settled for good nights sleep.
I woke early today excited to get my gingerbread and start the adv to Polaris North. First I collected from my castle but the Pol North Adv wasn't there so I looked at my quest and it still said I did not have the Ultramarine egg?!?!
Maybe I dreamed the whole thing? So desperate for another egg I imagined it all. Well, I took a trip to my kitchens and what did I have, 2 gingerbread. So what happened!? I thought maybe there was a glitch and when I collected again from my castle it would be there. Nope. HELP!!

So sorry this happened to you! I've been frustrated by sync issues before and now I always force-save the game by visiting a neighbor every time I get a rare drop or start an important action like sending my knights on an adventure during a time limited quest.

I've been thinking (dangerous, I know) about the problem of the threads getting way too long b/c people ask the same questions over and over. I was wondering if it would be possible to have a sticky for updates that just lists the answers to the basic questions. I know most of its in the first post, but even that seems like too much for some people to dig for. Something short and sweet, like this:

The pyre dragon quests expire on June 1. If you do not have an egg by that time you will not be able to get one.
If you skip the adventures with gems, you will get a dragon egg and be able to proceed with hatching.
You may not have more than one egg at a time. If you hatch an egg, you may receive another.

I can't remember the other questions that come up time and again, but you get the idea. It would mean there would be two posts for updates. The basic info sticky and the regular one for discussion, complaints and flippant responses. :)

Thoughts?

Yeah, something! I've actually read through all 107 pages of this thread but the repeated questions are starting to get to me with that unpleasant moment of annoyance instead of the happy-to-share-what-I-know feeling. I don't think having an extra sticky would change anything though and my personal solution is to cut down on my obvious addiction (ALL 107 pages, really?!) and to see it as a gracious opportunity to learn patience, compassion and being able to see things from a bigger perspective (not letting the little things get to you). With all that being said and done, at least read the first page!

05-25-14, 01:15 PM
day three and still no egg! this is soooooooo frustrating!!!!!!!! I am already using lots of gems to skip past dragon scales & mithril. I have been working on making and/or collecting mithril from deep mines for the past few months to try & make the net needed to hatch my dragon from the forgotten roost as well as needing mithril for the respite & glimmergate before this event ever started! why did this event have to include mithril and scales?!?!?! it makes it nearly impossible to continue trying for eggs especially when you don't have a dragon for scales & you can only make two mithril every two days.... the last three visits to the pyre adventure did not give any scales so I have to spend gems. did the jewelers trade a couple of times & no mithril returned so I have to spend more gems. I'm lvl 35... why offer something so difficult for everyone to participate in & say you have to be lvl 28 plus or whatever. this seems unfair to mid to higher level players who have not yet reached lvl 50! I'm beginning to regret having started this event line!!!!!!!!

2nd day, I still have about 18 hours left, but sick of going after jewels and not doing much else. I did want to keep a few treasure troves, but needed to smash them to get the multiple jewels. Thankfully the quest stays active even after the 3rd egg is collected so I can obtain some more.

Only posting this as you stated others have had gem sales while you don't, this is further proof that happens.

I play on multiple devices, as in iPad, android, iPhone, ect. From what I have seen in the past with my TL games, the gem sales seem to cycle based on your device. For example, iPad users would have gems sales one day, android would have them the next, and so on and so forth. I'm not sure why it's done this way. I'm guessing it has something to do with transactions on different markets. It may also have to do with location, for similar reasons.

I bought gems on my iPad(main) account which was not a Gem Sale.. have yet to see a Gem Sale ever.. iPhone account i did a Gem Sale once and continue to get them.. i think someone needs to look at that table in the database and reset that database counter.. we know your watching so take notes TL.

I'm with you! Good idea! The scientist in me is now wondering how many adventures are possible. I still have 19 vital essence and can prolly make one or two more each day, so I'm up for it. I'll run my mithril into the ground if I have to!

There is one person who did 37, I think. So that's the number to beat. I'm at 25 now. I think there's quite a few if us who are around that number.

Game on!
Yes I did 37 in Total (sped up with gems) before I had all 3 eggs. I'm doing extras to collect troves for jewels though. I'm glad other people are getting them before they hit that number. It was fairly expensive and a lot of players don't have 700 gems or so to throw away.

On a side note, I'm glad I spent the gems to actually go on the adventures and not just buy the eggs. The treasures I received from the pyre adventures have helped immensely in hatching the little critters 😜 for those of you contemplating the 200 gems to purchase the eggs, I would personally suggest using this as a last resort if time runs short. The amount of gems you may have to spend to hatch the eggs, or the months you may spend gathering resources may not be worth it if you can afford to travel to the Pyre caverns instead.

On my main account i'm sadly tempted to spend the 400 gems to get the two remaining eggs. It would save a lot of Mitril, Seeds and Energy... hmmm. Doing 8-10 adventures a day is a real pain.

I bought the barracks on my 2nd account just as this started, i wish i hadnt now as i dont have the gems to buy the eggs on that one now :-( And having the extra adventures is just looking like it is pointless.

It is looking like these extra eggs could be as rare as Burning embers or Alicorn parts. therefore it could take months of adventuring, not just 1 week.

Started the 200 jewel thing half an hour ago. I had 99 jewels and ten treasure troves. After chopping them and collecting from jewelers and mines, I have 146 jewels with coal to craft 8 more. Since I will keep collecting troves and can start chopping rocks, it seems entirely possible to get 46 more jewels over the next couple of days. Hope this is helpful info to people considering whether to attempt it.
Update after 5 or 5 1/2 hours: I have 177 jewels and am crafting 2 more. So I need basically 21 more. I've chopped 2 treasure troves, collected once and chopped 4-5? rock outcroppings. I will probably be done today

On another note, my brain is working overtime on this quest. I took a nap and dreamed I was a knight on a quest looking for dragon eggs. Lol.

Ah yes, that makes sense. I didn't realize that dropped Mithril for the same reason, I was maxed out, and I only do that trade to draw down water and glimmerdust, not for the results of the trade and I don't do it often, but still a good thing to know. Thanks for setting me straight on this!

Hahaha! Good stuff! So, first, you're welcome for the info. Second, that's not what I meant. I know there are players who aren't spending gems and continuing to adventure with fingers crossed at this point in time. A fair few have posted the enticing contemplation of purchasing the eggs and foregoing the adventures. I was simply stating that since there is still time to do the adventures, which are chock full of everything you need to hatch your dragons, they should continue on that path and obtain the rewards and possibly the eggs instead of giving up so soon. The 200 gems per egg should be last resort. :)

Funny as and so true. I'm on my 20th and 21st adventure. Got the Prye on the second, another (useless) Prye on the 8th and another one somewhere on long the line, didn't bother to take note, as it was useless.

Still waiting for the ultra and sparkley one. Have enough resources for about another 8 adventures at present. Pile of seeds are my bottleneck. However, as there is still almost 8 days to go, recources will restock during this time.

Hopefully, by the end, I will have the 3 eggs. If not, then, oh well, I tried.

I just wish that those that state they are going to quit - do so. I find it very frustrating to see the same people complain, threaten and state their gone, only to show up at the next timed quest to start complaining all over again.

Whilst frustrating not getting all the shiney new toys that you/I wanted for Christmas, It's a game, not life and death.

To thise happy to plug along like me, happy gaming and I hope we get our shiney new toys in the next week. Cheers

There is hope, a shiney new toy showed up on Aventure 27, the Ultramarine, from the barracks. 1 more shiney to come. Fingers crossed.

Yes, NW, it is me.

1 adventure per day should yield an egg? I have done 4 or five a day in the last two days, zilch! So not true!
See below.


Though we don't have the loot system improvements we want yet, we took great pains this time around to try and guarantee that players will get at least 1 egg before the time runs out, if they are able to do the adventure at least once a day. We're monitoring feedback to make sure that this is the case. Remember that it's only day 1! There's lots of time left.

I think is might actually mean one adventure EACH day, so if by the 10th day a player doesn't have an egg and sends out an adventure, then hopefully the programming will grant an egg.

Ah yes, that makes sense. I didn't realize that dropped Mithril for the same reason, I was maxed out, and I only do that trade to draw down water and glimmerdust, not for the results of the trade and I don't do it often, but still a good thing to know. Thanks for setting me straight on this!

I want the sparkling egg that's my last egg. I hope these crystals are going to be useful soon. Did anyone notice after u get some good treasure trove then u get the bad troves? Like it just has coins or 1 energy.

Alas, another disappointment from the jeweler's trade. No mithril and not enough gems, can't go on another adventure yet. But I did start crafting mithril in the magic forge and that should be done tonight, sooo there's still hope for tomorrow.

Hi Everyone! Hope you're all having fun.
Thought I'd share my strategy. After 4 Pyre Cavern Adventures, I received the Pyre Egg (Flare Dragon). After another 23 Adventures, I received the Aquamarine Egg. (27 Adventures total)
After estimating the time/resources needed for about 20 more Pyre Cavern Adventures, and the resources needed to hatch the Aquamarine Egg and the Sparkling Egg, I pulled out my wallet and spent 200 gems to purchase my third egg (Sparkling Egg).

By having both Aquamarine and Sparkling Egg now, and estimating the days left to this Questline, I think I'll have a better chance to craft, acquire, or obtain the resources to hatch both. Moreover, the 200 gems for the Sparkling Egg is a reasonable price-point, because other dragons/special items cost more. And, I did receive two without spending any gems.

Good Luck to everyone. Have a wonderful day!:cool:

I have a question about fey crystals since it is a part of hatching the bijou dragon. Amazingly, on this account I have a grand total of ONE. I have over 20 on my other account. I have all but 3 badges for T&T (expansion, feasts and adventures) and all 4 shards completed so I have harvested a lot and slain a lot of monsters. Lol I read a discussion of the crystals coming in places dependent on what shard you were on but I don't know if that still holds true, and if so how the 4th shard affects it. Anyone have any ideas? No, I don't have the faerie respite built yet nor can I yet. (On a side note, at what level does the respite ever drop anything?)

05-25-14, 04:12 PM
I'm assuming if you pay the gems to skip the "everything gold" section (200 jewels, 5 gold nuggets etc), it gives you the 10 lapis lazuli (right???) and you don't have to wait the 2 days for it to expire in order to progress to next stage of hatching ultramarine.
So...anyone know the gem cost to skip that part?

05-25-14, 04:15 PM
Here goes nothing! Bought gems for the first time ever. I had an iTunes gift card someone gave me like three years ago but I never buy apps and rarely buy music. I figure the $10 I spent gives me enough gems to keep going on adventures for the next 7 days. Now I just hope I get some eggs!

I don't remember, but it changes as you give more. For example, if you give 99 jewels it'll make you pay for the remaining 101. The more you give the less you'll have to pay.

And yes, skipping should get you 10 lapis lazuli since you're paying to "buy" what you don't give.

Can't remember exactly, but it's over 400 gems to skip, possibly 500 or more. Basically, it's not worth it! Either wait for it to expire or actually do it (won't take that long if you use all energy chopping rock outcrops).

That's a shame. I suppose it depends how many gems it costs to skip just the gold nuggets bit, sorry I can't remember, if it's a small amount you could still do the rest, if not probably best to let it expire then :(

It's 40 gems to skip the nugget part only.

It's also important to note that the first step of the sparkling egg is to give 50 jewels and 50 silver among other things. So I'm letting the 2 days expire on the ultramarine egg.

That's true, depends what eggs you have. I don't have the sparkling egg yet or the large diamonds, so I won't need the 50 jewels/silver anytime soon, leaving me free to do the silver/jewels/ore for the ultramarine egg.

I already spent a few gems Bc I didn't have any dragons scales to start this. I won't be spending anymore tho. It's disappointing when you see "full on Pyre Egg". Why can't we get the eggs we don't have if the adventure was lucky enough to drop an egg . Sorry to complain for those that don't even have any. Again;

Once you get the egg that needs the large diamonds (bijou), you have forever to hatch it, so it doesn't matter if you have none now as they drop from the troves, from deep mine, and sometimes from quests I think.


Does anyone know how many gems it is for the 5 large diamonds on the Bijou Dragon if skipped?
I'm on Like Diamonds In The Sky and I have 4/5 large diamonds. To skip it wants 10 gems, so that's for 1 diamond. Probably 50 for all 5. But the next task requires us to "arrange the large diamonds". Not sure if I will get the diamond by skipping or not, and if not, I will still be short for arranging.

The eggs are not in the treasure trove and it doesn't hurt your chances to keep the troves.

I'm one of those collecting the treasure troves. The reason for that is that each trove gives jewels and later on there is a timed goal that asks for 200 jewels. I need them then.

Depends. Personally I find getting the eggs more important. There is no time limit to hatch those beauties. Even more because tracing with Polaris is not difficult. I find it easy to produce 3 gingerbreads and 3 hot chocolates for it. Just did my first trade, and I think I got 3 snow. Not 100% sure though.

Depends. I did Polaris because I don't have the resources to do 8 Pyre adventures a day for a solid week. So I took time to do Polaris and built up seeds.

Does anyone else find the time restriction a little unfair to those of us who don't have any dragons yet? The very first challenge requires dragon scales which you can only get from a dragon?!? I am still in the process of getting my first dragon and I'm pretty sure I won't be finished that quest by the end of this week. Is there any other way to acquire dragon scales that I don't know about?
I don't have a dragon too, and I started this event with only 1 dragon scale. On my first adventure, I got 2 scales, and since then I've been sending out atleast 10 adventures, none of which I bought with gems. At this moment I'm crafting my next Dragon Armour, and I still have 3 dragon scales in inventory.
Started with 1 living wood too, so I'm shopping dead logs and collecting from Iceland Poppy Patch like a mad men, so I can craft Living wood in the potionshop. I'm using the rest of my energy to collect from my ponds for the mermaid scales and hope for the best.
I'm always running behind, and I have to work 3 hours and plan everything very precice, so I have just enough to get another adventure out.

I already have the Pyre Egg and the Sparkling egg - and as you see, I started out with almost nothing, and still have almost next to nothing. It's depleating my intire inventory, but hey, after you got 1, 2 or even 3 eggs, you have forever to fill that inventory and hatch the eggs, so I'm not worried about that.

If I were you, I'd give it a shot, pay 5 gems in the castle for my first adventure, and hope for the best.

Ps, I'm level 37 as off today, do I'm no way an advanced player.

PS2: this event is costing me way to much sleep and think-time! lol :P

Update: 26 adventures, 1 egg, pyre dragon. To say this is starting to suck is an understatement.

Don't give up! After 3 days of dedicated playing I finally earned all 3 eggs. It will take me a few more days till I have the resources to hatch the Bijou Dragon, but the drop rate for the eggs is high. Just keep plugging away at the Pyre Cave Adventure. There's still 7 days left so chances are high You Will Succeed!

I'm keeping the treasure troves for now so I can keep track of how many adventures I've sent. I got a pyre egg from the first of 24 completed adventures, another pyre egg at some time which I couldn't collect as my inventory was full with the first egg. No sign of the other two eggs thus far. I've shifted my production to trying to keep a supply of seeds with 8 conservatories but I'm also running low on living wood so it appears I'll be chopping old logs for wood for the living wood alchemy which also keeps me supplied with petals and mushrooms hopefully.

I was maxed on mithril and dragon scales before this event started. I certainly hope I can manage to get all 3 eggs in the allotted time.

Edit: On the 26th adventure I collected the ultramarine egg. I'm going to run the Polaris North adventure 4 times from the castle while keeping the pyre caverns going from the barracks.

I thought i did have the resources, but i'm thinking i might run out. I have tons of armour and swords, and i guess i could get the mushrooms. But my limiting factor will probably be the Mithril and or the Vital extract. I think i can do another 35 adventures before it starts getting tight. Which would leave me about 2-3 days short.

Chopped my first two treasure troves.....got jewels, an enchanters essence (nice) and some silver. Right now I have quest 29 and 30 out searching for the third egg. Don't give up people there is still time to do this. I will keep plugging away till June 1st. Then of course there is my fall back position and just spend the 200 gems and buy the darn egg. One way or another I will reach the goal ;)

You should be able to get them in that number of adventures! I got my second egg on my 27th, and I've just sent out my 30th looking for that last sparkly beast. I did decide to do at least 3 Polaris adventures, cos it will cut down on the number of exchanges I have to do to scrape the last bits of snow together. I'd already decided I'm going to gem the last egg if it doesn't show up by the end, so I've now calmed down and slacked off to just adventuring out of the barracks for now. I've put just about everything else on hold so I can collect only the important bits.

You can do it! Be strong!

Thx for the advice. I hope that 60 adventures will be enough for all 3 eggs. I think i've done about 28 so far (plus 2 currently out there). I' now slowing down making the Ice Brand/Armor in the hope i can get the last egg with only 7 more adventures with the ones i have already. Wish me luck :D

Only 1 egg so far, adventuring constantly since this started, no idea how many so far. I'm up to 10 conservatories to keep seems going, will build more as soon as I have enough red pedals. First egg has hatched, hoping that another egg will drop soon.

Seed piles are the stressful resource right now...

Just in case it hasn't been mentioned in the last 110 pages and I missed it ....
You don't have to pay 50 gems for a piece of mithril ... The completed sword and armor can be bought in the Kings/Queens Keep for 8 gems each. I wish I had noticed this earlier before I paid 12 gems for 3 piles of seeds to complete the vital extract recipe which then takes 2 hours to complete.
Good luck everyone!

I feel terrible because I had decided to stop posting until I figured out how to post correctly. Sorry, but I need to say this because I feel awful that I can't give this to someone!

I made a bunch of swords and armor to do the Pyre Adventure and had plenty left over after I finished hatching all three eggs so I decided to use them to collect treasure troves. I just got a Sparkling Egg back from an extra Pyre Adventure and I can't hatch it!

I am sure many would love to have this egg right now, and I wish I could give it to you! It was fine when I sat on a Burning Ember after I finished the first Dragon quest, and I was surprised a couple of weeks ago when I got a Dragon Egg from my Roost because I could hatch it in the Forge! But this pretty egg is not hatchable because even though I have leftover hatching materials, I have been done with the quest and have lost the ability to hatch it!

So while I didn't feel at all guilty that I sped through this quest with gems, I feel terribly guilty that I have a beautiful Sparkling Egg sitting in my inventory while so many others are sending out adventure after adventure and don't even have one yet!

Going back to my determination to stop posting now, but I had to get this off my chest!

Alas, another disappointment from the jeweler's trade. No mithril and not enough gems, can't go on another adventure yet. But I did start crafting mithril in the magic forge and that should be done tonight, sooo there's still hope for tomorrow.

Me three! We must be on the same cycle!

How funny. Mine was 25th but close. Now there is huge anticipation for the next egg and when one of us gets it the others will be expecting it too!

I've decided to do the 4 Polaris adventures because I can't sustain continuous Pyre Cavern trips from Court and Barracks anyway. Have plenty of faerie jars so that is not an issue. And as there have been reports of embers coming back from Polaris it is worth the chance I think. The Barracks can do 2 or 3 Cavern trips a day for now.

My mithril is going dangerously close to 25, something which makes me nervous. It's piles of seeds though which limits the vital extracts I can make at the moment. I don't want to spend 200 gems on that last egg but I really, really want that last egg. I am a bit OCD like that, must have the whole set! Have enough for 9 more adventures and can probably craft 2 more a day but is 25 more adventures enough? Maybe better to just pay for that last egg now... but I know I won't do that unless I absolutely have to. Decisions, decisions...

I'd wait. Set your fail safe point where you absolutely won't use any more mithril and see where that takes you. You might get it on two more adventures.

Hmmm, if pyre egg was 1:10 and ultramarine maybe 1:25 then is the last one 1:40? Knowing my luck it takes the full amount to get the egg. But I don't mind, just so glad I got two eggs so far as would be willing to part with 200 gems for the last egg but 400 gems would have been very painful. I would love to know what they drop though because if it is ordinary dragon stuff I don't know why I am bothering...

05-25-14, 11:33 PM
I got my ultramarine egg on the 27th adventure (28th overall), doing Polaris in my castle now and pyre in my barracks since I won't be able to keep up with nine pyre adventures per day with my remaining mithril stock. Have 24 mithril left and a newly grown up mithril dragon, plus 7 sets of swords/armor already forged. Although once I got to the give 200 jewels/100 silver part I'll start chopping up my stored dark cave formations and see if more mithril will pop up there. Have six conservatories now to collect piles of seeds and usually one round of collecting them yields about four piles of seeds so I can make one vital extract every four hours.

The diamonds are used for hatching the sparkling egg; they'll drop from deep mines or you can find them in the treasure troves. See the first post of this thread for more detailed info. :)

Yeah I thought as much. I don't have any and I have chopped all but two treasure troves. In any case I am still waiting on my second and third egg.

spending my energy chopping trees and collecting white petals to make living wood. I haven't enough gems to buy the living tree.

So, it looks like there's a pattern here. If you don't get all three eggs within the first 8-10 tries, then it's 23-25 ish for the ultramarine. We'll have to see how the final egg matches up. I'm thinking 35-37.

QZ and Wibbly. Great minds think alike. I'm doing Polaris (just sent my second one out). I'm only doing the get an egg one through the Barracks for the next 2 days so that I can stock up on seeds and extract. We will still have approx 5 days after that to get Mr Sparkerley if he hasn't arrived by then. I also have decided I will gem the last egg, however, only right at the end if I have too. Whilst I have banged on about gem sales, I do still have a small stash saved for rainy days. Just haven't been stocking up the stash. Happy hunting. Cheers

You do in fact need to chop the treasure trove in order to see the dragon egg drops. For players who aren't active in the forum, it just doesnt make sense to have them drop before they even know the eggs exist!

I've been feeding my first dragon from the quest very often for 3 days and still no adult. How many times does it take? I keep reading all the threads and not seeing this mentioned.

I'm almost ashamed to say it, because others seem so unlucky, but I must be the luckiest player TL has!

Started out with only 1 dragon scale and 1 living wood (not short on seeds and mithril, though), no Barracks, no dragon and only lvl 36, I thought, "Ah well, let's give it a try, and sent out that one adventure".

Now, +/- 11 adventures later, not only I still have 3 dragon scales, but I also have all 3 dragon eggs.,.

If i'd only had the resources to hatch them... Lol!

So, I realy, realy, realy wish everybody, from this point on, as much luck as I had! I hope that everybody will get all 3, preferably on their next adventure. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
