FAQ



Q.: Event Ending Time


June 1, 4AM PST

You can use this Time Zone Converter (http://www.thetimezoneconverter.com/) to figure out your local time. You can enter "San Francisco" for the TL time zone (PST).




Looks like adventures sent before the expiry time, but collected afterwards, still have a chance to find the egg. However! The quests themselves ("get the ultramarine egg") will have expired, so you won't be able to start them =/

I would plan on having all your Adventures collected before the quests expire.


Q. Do I have to do the timed portions?


Exactly! Completing the timed portions of each egg's questline will speed up the process of hatching them, but as long as you have the egg, eventually you'll be able to hatch it.

Q. What are the chances of getting an egg?


There is not an equal chance of getting each egg. Each egg has a different rarity.


Also, all 3 eggs drop independently of each other. Whether or not you have one does not affect your chances of getting the others.

So if you have an unhatched egg of one type it won't prevent you from getting an egg of a different type.


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.

Getting all 3 eggs is a tall order, meant to challenge you lv. 50 players with lots of resources and an advanced game.

Q. I haven't had any egg drop. Is there something I need to do first?


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!

You only need to chop 1 trove to start getting the chance for the eggs to drop. The eggs will drop from the adventure not the troves.

Q. How do I get [resource]?


If you have the resources, the jeweler's trade in the royal exchange has a 50% chance to drop Mithril and is probably the fastest way to get it!

The Large Diamonds from the Treasure Troves can in fact be used to hatch the dragon from the Forgotten Roost... I don't want to give too much away but if you're debating whether or not to use it for that purpose, I'd recommend going for it :)

Note: the above bit is for the people who have a dragon egg and are up to the raw materials quest (needs diamond, Golden Fleece and burning ember)


Hmm, the polaris adventures should have a 100% chance to drop forever snow (either 8, 10, or 12 of it). are you certain that you did not get any snow?

Seeds: conservatories, faerie respite, magic garden, Ivy's hut, goddess tree
Conservatory: 15 red petals, & 5ish super glue, fancy beams & fancy blocks to build,2 hour collection time


I was wondering that as well. You can get jewels from the Mines (Sparkling and Deep), Sabina's House, the Jeweler, Toll Vault, Rock Croppings, Iron Rich Rock, Dark Cave Formation (20 gems), crafting in the Magic Forge and I'm sure I forgot sth.
So building several Jewels may help, chopping down Rocks like mad and crafting will be my choices and -naturally- collecting from the above buildings. Oh I forgot the Treasure Troves!




It's possible, but may require a little planning. For one, wait until after 1st of june to move on with this, or until you have all 3 eggs.
- Be sure you are maxed on jewels when you start.
- Make sure you can collect from your mines all day long for two days.
- If you can, buy more jewelllers.
- Remember to collect from Sabinas house.
- Do adventures to the ancient vault, have it ready to collect when you start the quest. This adventure usually drops jewels.
- Save your treasure troves until you need them, they contain lots of jewels.
- Chop all kinds of rocks and deep cave formations.
- Ask you friends to start sending you jewels, don't collect your gifts for 6/7 days until you start the quest. The system usually saves your incoming gifts for a week or up to a maximum of 20. This alone should give you 18/20 jewels ready to collect.
- If you have the 4th shard and have allowed your coal supply to build up again, you can craft jewels in the magic forge.
- You can do exchanges with Belladonna, this usually gives you jewels.
- Collect from sir piggy and your regular dragon(s).

All in all I think it's very doable and you don't even need to do everything on the list to get all 200 jewels.

Q. If I get all the dragons will I still have the adventure?


The adventure will stick around until 6/01, even if you've gotten all 3 eggs and hatched them.

Q. Can I get more than 1 of each egg?

You can only hold 1 of each egg in your inventory. It is possible to get another egg once you've hatched a dragon. It is only possible to hatch more than one of the ultramarine dragons (provided you don't complete the water birthing goal, ie don't feed baby dragon)


Q. Will skipping the egg goals give me the egg?

Skipping these goals for 200 gems will give you the egg (so you don't have to rely on them randomly dropping from the adventures)

Q. If I have the egg and the 10 days expires will I still be able to do the quests for the egg?


They will never expire once you have the egg. The timed portions of the quests will expire if you don't complete them in time, but the quests themselves are designed so that even if you miss every timed portion, as long as you have the egg, you will be able to hatch it.

Q.what are the feed/collect times for the dragons?

Baby dragons get hungry every hour. It takes them 20 feeds before they grow up. Adult dragons are ready to give their gifts every 22 hours.

Castle Story has beautiful animations always. But I can't help but think of how horrible the dragons on dragon story look sometimes. The bijou dragon would have sticker tattoos and and pink and white faux hawk.

I have the other two dragons, back then I had to use gems to finish the original red one early. I can imagine how long this one will take! I'm waiting for my alicorn to get ready to collect in 8 hours. It's SO hard not to touch anything on release day.

I can already foresee the lack of having a dragon yet is gonna be a prob for many people in the lv 28-30 or so range ...
If u buy one in market, get the blue MITHRIL one cuz if u buy other one, u won't get egg from roost (or so I've read elsewhere on here)... But I'd hold out just a lil bit to see what's next)

Bummer. The dragon scales makes this a non-starter for the account with my son. How disappointing! Too bad it wasn't a requirement to have a dragon to participate in the quest last week ... that would have put us on alert a week ago to consider whether we wanted to purchase a dragon and start collecting scales in advance.

I had wanted to buy a mithril dragon on that account about a month ago. I would have needed to supplement saved gems with a 250 gem purchase, but then I lost 180 gems when the screen blinked and reset as I was checking expansion requirements. Just couldn't bring myself to pay to replace that many lost gems.

I agree that they should have at least given us a heads up. If we would have had to collect 5 dragon scales just like we did for the light armor we would have had a better idea.

Although the magic armor is only 5 gems for the first one and 8 gems thereafter in the adventure. So... It's not that terrible. As long as you have everything else.

Unfortunately I don't have that much mithril :(

what about uk?

You will have noticed by now it is usually 8pm GMT, which means even though the adventure is only 3 hours long it will be 11pm when that finishes, so as always we wind up being a day behind. The silver lining is that come the morning there will be a full list of requirements for the quest line, so much easier to plan ahead.

They drop in the new adventure... so your going to need a decent amount of Mithril and dragon scales to get to 100.

After first adventure you have to do back there a few times to get the egg so keep making ice sword/dragon armor (adventure still there after you get egg)



If the adventure is still there, does that mean you can get a second egg? :-D

Apparently Castle Story is very popular with people in Florida..

Especially as it's getting too hot to go outside anyway!

I was born, lived, schooled, married, had 4 children in Florida. Then 4 years ago, after 40 years of marriage, divorced & moved to S. Carolina. I want to go back to Florida to be near my daughter but I don't have enough $$$ to be able to move back. :^( Anyways, update has arrived in S.C. and I have just finished the blade and the armor in my 2 magic forge's...no plans for holiday so I am off on the hunt, sure need a gem sale just in case!!

I believe the main quest has no overall timer... the 2 additional eggs are limited to 10 days... I haven't got them yet from adventures. So your main issue to getting as many ice swords and dragon armors made for attempts at the 2 extra eggs before the timer runs out.

Yes to the blade and armour, no to only 3 of each, you will probably need more.
Your only option may be to spend 8 gems buying each item, so 16 gems total per adventure.

I can already foresee the lack of having a dragon yet is gonna be a prob for many people in the lv 28-30 or so range ...
If u buy one in market, get the blue MITHRIL one cuz if u buy other one, u won't get egg from roost (or so I've read elsewhere on here)... But I'd hold out just a lil bit to see what's next)
I purchased a dragon when I started playing about a year ago and I still got the egg (but not until I reached around Level 32). LOL

I'm backed up on the original dragon quest through the regular game because of item needed from the dark caves that hasn't been forthcoming, so my orange dragon egg has just been sitting in storage. I have maybe 10 mithril just through random drops and the coal was the one thing I was low on since I've been making wisps and lanterns to expand....Guess this isn't the update for me:( Level 33 here.

I received a dragon egg from the forgotten roost a month ago, and have only collected 6 of the 10 books from the library to hatch it (along with everything else needed in that chain.) This timed event is not for all. A fair event would have given everyone a fair advantage (no dragon required.) Then again Mithril is hard to come by, so requesting such things, this quest is aimed at making people spend gems or money. I will only use as many gems as I feel fit, and guess what, new dragon egg or not, I am not spending my money on a pet in a game. Because they requested 10 sword and armor last week it will obviously take a lot to get an egg. I still like the game, but come on team lava, you will have to try harder than that to get my money.

TL really should have made dragon scales part of the pre-quest. I understand they wanna keep some of the mystery but it would have given us a clear idea of what to expect.

Plus, it may have encouraged some people to buy a dragon in preparation.

You can get quite a bit of coal from chopping rocks. 8 hours is 160 energy. One of my accounts had very little coal but I'm up to 50 now from chopping 20 times and 4 mines.

Aggwyn stated on the first post that we don't have to complete the timed quests to go on. Or did I understand it wrongly? I'm a bit confused.

I think you have to get the 3 eggs in 10 days, but you have unlimited amount of time to hatch them? Also, mini-timed goals involved in hatching the eggs, but you don't have to meet them to carry on? That's my guess anyway...

Not sure if this has changed, but these were the Polaris North requirements before

Holiday Feast x 5,000 coins (8 hours)

Holiday Feast:
5 hot chocolates (from cottages)
2 gingerbread men (1 flour, 1 sugar, 10 milk per gingerbread)
10 milk

Aggwyn stated on the first post that we don't have to complete the timed quests to go on. Or did I understand it wrongly? I'm a bit confused.

Previous quests that had a timed portion meant that the timed portion would give a head start on the non timed parts, so let's say a timed quest would want 100 jewels, your reward would be 20 crystals, it would then move onto the none timed part, that would require 50 crystals, so anyone who completed the timed part would have an advantage on those who didn't complete the timed part, they would have 20 crystals.
If you didn't complete the timed quest, it would expire, you move onto the next part with 0 crystals and have to craft the full 50 required and that could take many days and resources.
Hopefully that is well explained

You can get quite a bit of coal from chopping rocks. 8 hours is 160 energy. One of my accounts had very little coal but I'm up to 50 now from chopping 20 times and 4 mines.
Hmm possibly but then there's the issue of spending gems for dragon scales for the adventure, someone reported getting only 4/100 items needed from one adventure. I think it's more fun for me when I don't have to spend gems to speed things up or replace what I'm missing. Ill part with my gems for valuable resources such as my wizard schools which I don't regret for a second, or the new living tree which i just purchased which was worth it for me, some of the side packages, etc. But I won't part with them if I feel sort of forced into it, which is sort of harsh but it's how I feel here. Maybe the next one will be more my speed :) but I bet whatever dragons you guys get will be pretty awesome. #jealous :D

Looks like we have 10 days to get the eggs, then unlimited time to hatch them. No clues yet on what the dragons give us.
Presumably they may be purchasable in the market after the event, but that isn't guaranteed, but on past experience that may prove cheaper than spending gems on each stage if you are low on the required resources

I think I'll just go and buy that nice little Mermaid Pond I've had my eyes on and then I can't be tempted to spend gems on missing quest items or accidentally lose them before I buy anything (I was also thinking of saving until maybe I had enough for the Wizard School but I'm just going to go for the pond).
They're both nice purchases! But I think after the 1st or 2nd shard from the Tabernum (spelling?) you get better drops from the ponds/well. So some people have thought the purchase wasn't worth it, but it's lovely and it guarantees mermaid scale drops, and the ponds and wells don't, even after you get the shard. It's nice because that way you're never low on enchanters essences which can slow you down, plus you're not wasting energy checking on regular ponds for scales.

I know, much as I appreciate bobbo's speeding up, we don't know the rewards for the timed portions, may well be that after giving 500k in coins you get 30 prime cut and 30 truffle and maybe even a golden apple, that would certainly give a helpful boost.

Now all that water is just crazy. Glad I have about 12 wells, guess I'll have to get the rest of my ponds out of storage when I hit that part.

Let's do some math!

If it takes 33 adventures, and each one is 3 hours, let's assume we're awake for 12 hours a day. That's 4 quests a day.

We have 10 days to complete the quest, so we should be able to do 40 quests total in 10 days. Even more if you have barracks. You can also probably squeeze in closer to 5 or 6 quests a day, especially since you'll start one before you go to sleep.

-Event runs from 05/22/2014 - 06/01/2014
-Collect all 3 Dragon Eggs from the Caverns!
-If you obtain a Dragon Egg you will have unlimited time to hatch it

:o


Pyre Egg

1. Hot Potato!
* Give 80 stone
* Give 50 Wood
* Place egg (click Button)

2. Highly Combustible
* Give 50 Wool

3. Hot and Heavy - TIMED 8 HRS
* Give 100 Coal
Note you don't have to finish this one but if you do it gives 12 pyre crystals as a reward

4. Place the Egg (hit button)

5. Drop it like its hot - TIMED 8 HRS
* Give 30 sap
* Give 60 wood
* Give more Coal 30
Note you don't have to finish this one but if you do it gives 16 pyre crystals as a reward

6. All Fired up
* Give 40 Fish
* Give 10 Butterfish
* Give 10 Catfish

7. Pyre Crystals
* Give 100 Pyre Crystals
So if I get this right, 10 days to get the egg, which is the first stage, then unlimited time to do the rest, apart from the individual timed portions obviously.

One more question, the eggs drop from the pyre caverns adventure, is there an equal chance of getting each egg? Once a particular egg retrieved, is that egg removed from the adventure so we are then left with a 50/50 chance of the other eggs or can we still get any of the 3 eggs and have multiples of each dragon?

Ok, thanks for the reply, but it was more of a question on multiples, just badly phrased. Once we have 1 egg, will that egg be removed from the drop rate, or can we have multiples of the same egg and so therefore multiples of the dragon, or will the dragon only be hatched from the quest line, so we could wind up with multiple eggs, but no way of hatching them?

I'm one of the community who reported dragon scales, but it isn't confirmed, it looked like scales, but the quest dialogue blocked the collection screen so I can't be 100% sure.

Thank you maguar for the edits.

Am I correct that we only need 100 pyre crystals for the Pyre dragon but not for the others? I believed it was 100 crystals for all..Im having a think now..

For some of the people asking you can get 2-4 dragon scales per adventure... not 100% drop rate but they are common.
Thanks for this:) seems its the mithril that's a no-go..

I was opening the troves thinking they may contain the egg, I assume they don't. Does the egg just drop along with the other items?

Eggs come from castle... you will know when you get one as the new quest icon will flash right away.

Do I read/understand it well, that we have ten days to try to collect the eggs and after that we can take all the time we need to compleet the other goals?

05-22-14, 02:32 PM
So I guess we should focus on as many trips to the Pyre Caverns as we can in the next 10 days as rhe other bits can be done after?

Can someone please confirm the Pyre Cavern adventure will still be available after 10 days and only the chance of eggs dropping is removed? Because I believe we need to get resources from that adventure to help hatch the eggs?

One thing I am glad of is that unless you get an egg, you will not get the steps that require all your precious resources. So it's mostly the armor, sword and vital extracts you are giving up.

They do, but I am completely unorganised and have absolutely no idea how many I had before opening the trove. So have no idea how much it went up by either :o

2. Nose Goes! - TIMED QUEST 2 days

3. True love to melt the ice
* 50 forever snow
* Build a nest of snow (click build)
Rewards: 370 Coins, 3 XP


Why does a timed goal pop up as second step? thats a pretty intense step.. i know its to get the extra snow.. just confused on why the other 2 eggs timed goals come later.

05-22-14, 02:41 PM
So if you get the ultramarine first (if indeed the eggs come randomly rather than in some order) then you have to do a timed quest of four adventures while still needing to do the ten day timed quest of many adventures to get the other two eggs. Great...

So at the end of the event we could conceivably end up with 3 or 4 of the same egg. Ugh! And not even get all 3 or even 2 out of the 3?

I don't know if there's a way to get dragon scales otherwise without spending those initial 5 gems.

If you fail the time quest it just means you have to do the royal exchange more... you don't lose the egg or anything.... it will just take you longer to finish.

Exactly! Completing the timed portions of each egg's questline will speed up the process of hatching them, but as long as you have the egg, eventually you'll be able to hatch it.

Also, all 3 eggs drop independently of each other. Whether or not you have one does not affect your chances of getting the others.

Looking at post 1 this quest is only available till the 1st June. Then it is gone, if you have eggs then you will have infinite time to hatch them, but you won't be able to get any eggs that you haven't got without buying them with gems

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 haven't gotten one from this quest yet, but if it in fact is called "Large Diamond" then it should be the same thing and work for hatching the dragon.

From my first quest, I got 10 energy, 2 gems, 2 pyre crystals. From my first treasure trove, I got 15 coins, 2 iron ores, 5 jewels, and would have gotten some faerie's murmur if I weren't already full up.

The amount of jewels & vital extract we need is crazy though... Goodbye my ready to brew 20 energies :( On the other hand I have lots of stuff left over from when we had the Polaris North goals (was it for the reindeer? I can't remember), looks like I'll be able to use them after all~ What does that adventure drop? If it only drops forever snow then the exchange, which drops tickets, makes more sense...

05-22-14, 04:24 PM
So bottom line if you're going to focus on something in the next 10 days, it's to get those 3 eggs. Hatching them can wait until afterwards if you're pressed for time or resources.

I only have 5 mithril and I started the quest. I'd say it's worth it. Also, each item only costs 8 gems, so you wouldn't be spending too many gems.

I did get dragon scales after my first adventure which did help a lot. Not sure what I'm gonna do about mithril.

Just wondering if I understand this right; pay 12 gems Bc I have no dragon scales or pay 8 gems to buy dragon armour in the adventure menu or pay 5 gems to skip making the dragon armour in the Kingdom Goals section Ice Ice..

If I skip with 5 gems will that take me into the adventure path or will I have to pay more gems to start adventure.

If you have the resources, the jeweler's trade in the royal exchange has a 50% chance to drop Mithril and is probably the fastest way to get it!

The Large Diamonds from the Treasure Troves can in fact be used to hatch the dragon from the Forgotten Roost... I don't want to give too much away but if you're debating whether or not to use it for that purpose, I'd recommend going for it :)

I ask that you please start using the word "Coins" instead "Gold," unless you actually mean GOLD. Examples of actual gold in CS play: Golden Egg, Gold Nugget, Golden Apple, Gold Ingot. If coins are being used, it's much more accurate to use the word COINS (and less confusing).

After saying that, Thank you all for the wonderful work you do for all us players of Castle Story!

The first time only you can pay 5 gems to get the dragon armor. Everytime thereafter it costs 8 gems if you pull it up from the adventure menu. There is NO reason to pay the 12 gems for scales.

Join the confusion club, lol! It's a very select clientele.

I think it's messing with the inscriptions b/c you need piles of seeds for both things to grow plants for the exchange, and you need them for vital essence. It seems everyone is on some different part of the goals, and there's a zillion different things going on.

From what I can tell, we're adventuring to the pyre caverns to try to find eggs. Then, bunches of other things happen in order to hatch them.
