The new mining dragon is here! You have around a month to collect all 200 radioactive fragments http://i59.tinypic.com/2dw95sm.jpg to start crafting this dragon! Super rare, green and red.

Just found it, just as I decided to stop breeding and hatching for a while so I could catch up on evolving and feeding ..... Well thanks for letting us know we have around a month ...... That's life ;)
But with existing 25 bombs I have gained 41 fragments ;)

Now to evolve shorter time dragons ? but plenty of time

37 fragments with my 25 stored bombs. Would've had more if the APP HADN'T CRASHED ON ME.

37 fragments with my 25 stored bombs. Would've had more if the APP HADN'T CRASHED ON ME.

To prevent that I close the app and restart it for every 5 bombs used. It's a hassle but I managed to use all stored bombs and got 58 pieces.
Based on the info from those 25 bombs and some messing around in Excel I can expect the first dragon on April 3rd and the second on April 17th

I'll have to start doing that. I would've had 40 without that crash, one heck of a head start. I only average about 1.5 bombs per try, so I likely won't be able to do two of these. (I'm already planning on naming it Imagine.)

If you're having trouble making the most out of your bombs you should take a look at the mining guide (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?72394-Dragon-Story-Mining-Guide), it's really helpful

Love this dragon! So pretty! But a little disappointed that it's another red-green.

Got 66 pieces from 33 bombs, so a perfect 2:1 ratio :)

Only 60 pieces from 30 bombs for me; an off day, I usually average a little over 2/bomb. Alas. Glad to be able to evolve again!

One of the dragons I dislike. Radioactivity isn't fun or a game and causes nasty disseases, to me this dragon also looks like it's ill and groenig pimpels out of every inch of it's body.

I really dislike hem having bear one of my other precious dragons, I would be scared he would contaminate the others...

It takes forever to mine dragons, especially when I lose the bomb because the game stops just as I'm using bombs. Very frustrating!

yeah I had mine issues as well. Only got 40 parts from 25 bombs so lame TL. Twice I had finished mining and when it would tell you how much you had it closed on it own and when I opened it back up and went into the mine the screen was frozen on the part where you can pay gold to continue and it would not move from there. I am almost sure I lost my pieces from both of those times.

I'm really trying not to think about the real effects of radiation. Growing up during the Cold War makes the prospect of radiation absolutely terrifying for me, so I'm just completely divorcing this game from anything resembling reality, in my mind. It's a nice glowy dragon and I'm going with that.

Radioactivity in and of itself isn't fun, but I like glowing green things. Glowsticks. Neon. Monster blood in movies.

THINK OF THIS BB LIKE GODZILLA, GUYS. No one can hate on Godzilla.

Besides, if I ~don't~ go for it, I'll have to wait /even longer/ to evolve my dragons. I like actually being able to level up w/out losing bombs.

I really wish this wasn't another green and red dragon. Wasn't scarab green and red? I like it overall though, just wish it had been black and green or another combination. I think I have 80 something pieces so far.

Well, if you know that Gojira was actually a horror movie and look at it from the Japanese perspective. They, as a nation, were attacked with two atomic bombs and were living with the realities of radiation. Gojira is actually f***ing terrifying if you watch it thinking about that. So yeah, "Godzilla" is scary. At least the early ones. I'll give you the latter ones where he'd morphed into the hero of the nation.

I'm not gonna try for two but I'm gonna keep mining once I craft one Radioactive Dragon cause I have a looooong list of dragons to evolve and I just can't bear my bombs going to waste like that. xD Better keep using them to mine pieces and get bonus apples in the process. :)

These things usually last at least 4 weeks that is why it is so important to put the date in the title line so you always know when something may be close to ending. Some times they give 3 extra days but that is rare and I never count on that.

Just be sure you are evolving all throughout the day, and evolve longer dragons at night depending on how long you generally sleep. Can't play for a day or two? Evolve any diamonds, islands, magic, nights and other dragons with long evolving hours so the hours are not completely wasted. You can do it!

Is there going to be an extension on this one until the update crashing issue is fixed? The game hasn't made it two seconds past the splash screen since I installed it. I don't remember how many pieces I had, but if I can't get back in soon, I know I won't make it. I don't just collect dragons for numbers either, I only keep what I like looking at, and I think this one's cute. :-)

The only reason I was able to get two of these was because I had the maximum number of 25 bombs already just sitting waiting at the beginning so I think they just sit there till needed so should carry over .... Hope this is the correct info for you ;)

roguebee
04-22-15, 07:20 PM
Yes, the bombs roll over from one dragon to the next. Many people have posted good advice on what to do. The ideal situation is to have a dragon ready to finish evolving when the new dragon appears and have 25 bombs in storage. I have 24 in storage and a Crusader ready to come off Friday afternoon (11 more bombs).

zero_me

The mine has a max capacity of 25 Bombs and 25 Dynamite. If you are at the max you will no longer receive Bombs or Dynamite until some have been used.

My left side of the mine has dissapeared altogether. I can't be the only one, now can I?

Nope, the Radioactive has expired and the next mining dragon hasn't been released yet. Mine will be closed until then (let's say, wait half an hour)

The left side of the mine should be locked for everyone until the new mining dragon comes along. It should be here soon!

Mine did too, first it showed it was closed, but now the left side is gone. Hopefully this means the new dragon is coming really soon?

Is there going to be an extension on this one until the update crashing issue is fixed? The game hasn't made it two seconds past the splash screen since I installed it. I don't remember how many pieces I had, but if I can't get back in soon, I know I won't make it. I don't just collect dragons for numbers either, I only keep what I like looking at, and I think this one's cute. :-)
Lovely how the update to fix this didn't come out in time and doesn't load either... :-/

So how do I get this one? Stupid question I know, but this is your fault, not mine.
