I like the looks of this dragon. It's so beautiful. I got 18 Shards with 10 bombs. This will be the first one I will finish. I think it should also be gemstone, since Obsidian is also considered a Gemstone. Nevertheless, I MUST GET 2. One Powerful and Beautiful, one Cute and Cuddly. I shall name it Apache and Cristoba. Good luck everyone!

I like the way this dragon looks - the colors make it devilish.
I have 7 pieces so far and have diamond evolving 18 more hours. I hope I can get this dragon before it goes away without to rush anything.

Given that I get one bomb per 4 hours of evolution, I have been reluctant to evolve dragons whose evolution time is not divisible by 4, because I would have up to three hours of evolution time not going toward a bomb.
Starting at the beginning this time, maybe I can afford to evolve dragons like mist -14 hours 3 bombs 2 hours extra, coral - 10 hours 2 bombs 2 hours extra, and virtue - 33 hours 8 bombs 1 hour extra.

I usually break the area up into 4 pieces and go from there. Once you find a piece, the whole thing resets so just because you weren't close to a piece originally, the 2nd piece may be right next to where you already looked.

I almost always get 2, sometimes 3 and rarely 4. Sometimes I only get 1, but I don't think I've ever had 0.

I am off to a slow start. Have 49 shards so far. I put my second Gold dragon in the evolution temple and still have 11 hours to go. I'm getting my duplicate diamond hybrids evolved above level 3 so it's taking forever because I'm not spending gold to speed up anything.

91 shards, and 5 bombs (also tired of mining, don't even bother to mine the dynamite anymore). Got a line waiting for the evolution temple a mile long, so no doubt I will get the 200 shards in time :)

When the obsidian dragon has started, I had 3 bombs and a dragon already evolving for 8 hours. I had a dragon in the Evolution Temple continuously since then.
Currently I have 3 bombs and 53 shards. I think I will be able to get the dragon anyway, but I wonder how come I have so much less than other people. I must be really bad at it. Is there a secret?

I saw one day a thread explaining how to mine, but I don't find the thread xD In my opinion it's random, sometimes in one bomb I can get 1, 2, 3 or 4 (very hardly) parts.

How do you get everithing so fast? In tournament in world event and in the mining. Are you all day in this game?

Zummat

How do you get everithing so fast? In tournament in world event and in the mining. Are you all day in this game?

During a world event I make sure to check in at least every 4 hours. On some days I am able to check in every two hours. I buy Air, Water, or Light eggs to keep my nests full. Which one depends on how often I can collect during the day. Crops are planted the same way, on how often I think I can collect them. It's all in the timing and not having things waiting too long for collection.

The mining side as soon as I get the dragon I make sure to have 25 mines in storage at all times so they will be there for the next dragon. When the timer shows up I try to put a dragon in the evolution temple that will be ready as soon as the timer expires but I don't take it out until the new dragon appears and I have exploded the 25 bombs in storage. Then take the dragon out of the temple and collect those bombs. That way I'm off to a pretty good start on the new mining dragon. Then it's just evolve and collect the bombs and explode them until I get the dragon. And the cycle starts all over again.

I now have 137 shards. I am going to start feeding my champions. Most of them are babies. I have 6 of them that are at level 1 or 3 and 2 that are at level 6. The rest are 7, 8 or 9. It's going to take a while to bring any of them to epic. Ninja is still my only epic champion.

Good luck getting Obsidian everyone.

That's a good mining guide! I am learning how to be more effective with my bombs. I'm still not always hitting the spot I meant to, but I am getting better at finding second and third fragment. I am now at 150, and I believe I'll get the Obscidian dragon before the time is up.

Not really a glitch, this is just how the game was early on and those who joined up then got stuck with it. There are ups and downs to each version. :)

Crafted Obsidian on my main acct; now working on a second one. Pretty sure I'll make it, as I'm at 78 already. 2nd acct is at 185.

Im so jealous. I have about 40 parts so far. Been pulling useless dragons out of storage and fighting with the old DS to feed my favorite ones for parts.

Out of all of the dragons I really like this one and still stare if I see Glass on someones island. Thats on my wish list for xmas dragons that they make breedable temporarily. Or bring back for crafting.

09-09-14, 08:39 AM
I have to evolve at 3, 6, and 9 so I have a long long long list of dragons that need to evolve. I have them running 24/7 in there. It gives me plenty of bombs to get one of these every month or so. Good luck everyone.

I also have to do the same but my breeding luck had tanked the past couple of months. Thankfully i won the storage fillers during the wheel event to keep it running.

And then maybe i was too lazy a couple of times to use the bombs, when taking drags out of the temple. Between this and mining for gems on farm 2, PLUS the new forest game all that tap, tap, tapping can feel tedious.

Started crafting mine last night. I was closer than I'd thought. Thought I needed 25 shards and only needed 15. Managed to get them all with the 6 bombs I had left.

So I'll evolve a couple more dragons just to have some bombs in storage and then wait until the next dragon is ready.

Amerirish: Same here. Crafted one, tempted to make a second one. Have 37 shards already, and 17 bombs, and more than enough dragons waiting to evolve, and more than enough food / money, and need the black gem... But if there's enough time?

You're in better shape than me to try for a second one; I have 0 shards right now so my dilemma is do I risk having useless shards in my inventory if I don't collect enough in time or do I wait and let my bomb counter sit at 25 for the next week and a half. Decisions, decisions :)

Just use the amount of bombs that you will get with your next evolution. That way you can keep mining and keep getting the food and you will still have 25 bombs when a new dragon is released.

That sounds like a good advice. My Obsidian has 5 more hours to go before it becomes an egg. I have one shard and 6 bombs. I probably don't need to worry about making another Obsidian, but might get 25 bombs and more food would be handy to have. Lots of hungry dragons on my island

Or let us trade them for something useful. I have quite a lot of extra materials in storage. It doesn't bother me. I may get to use them one day. I'm not trying for a second Obsidian so I will have plenty of extra shards in storage by the time the new mining dragon shows up.

Calculated that, for the love of it, I can get a maximum of 128 pieces...

I have 65 pieces already and 18 bombs. 2 pieces per bomb make 101 pieces.

I have 7 days and 21 hours left. If I evolve 24/7, that gives me 46 bombs. That gives 93 pieces.

Dunno if I should try it... It would give me a huge setback on the next craftable dragon... But I think I will speed an evolve or 2, and be done with it :)

Hope those that are close get to finish. As stated earlier don't forget to get it in the Spell Shop as soon as possible. If it isn't crafting before the timer runs out you won't be able to craft the egg and get the dragon.

So far I had mine sit in the spell shop for 3 days, I think the longest I had a dragon in the spell shop was almost a week. Trying to get the nest clear and a place to put it was not easy. So no worries there :)

I still need Onyx, Jade and Tiger's Eye but had a lot of extra obsidian parts, about 130. I figured 10 bombs for 40 gold would yield at least 20 parts. So I ended up spending 120 gold to get a large black gem. Better value than buying the parts, which was 4 gold per piece.

Only cost me about 8 gold, for I had to speed the evolution twice: it would be finished just a couple of hours after going to bed, and I needed the bombs. If I had tried hard enough from the beginning, I could have made enough bombs without gold, but ah well, 8 gold ain't that much :)

Are we getting a new mining dragon? I didn't think it took this long to release the new one.

I have 25 bombs saved and its not increasing for two days even though im still evolving dragons. Is 25 the limit to store bombs? Do you know?

Yup, 25 is the limit for bombs and dynamite. So if you know you're gonna get some, you'd better use the ones you're going to get, so you can atleast get some money/food for it :)
