Can @Amerish or a Storm8 mod please add Lenasdiner's oh-so-handy steps (from post #243, pg. 25) to the 1st page? I have more than one acct, so I need to refer to the steps for multiple levels. And it's not just me, I've seen many requests for the Chapter lists for low & mid-levels.

Thanks again to those who add the steps in such a nice, easy-to-read fashion! You are much appreciated!

Btw, I asked earlier, but not sure if anyone saw. Does anyone have the storyline? Either screenshots, or just the text? I forgot to read it, I was so focused on the tasks, lol.

Just added the steps to Post #1 :D

I think in past tales it has been 2.5 for every hour of planting. Haven't gotten there yet this time.

EDIT:Only 2 per hour this time. Strange that it changed and glad I actually paid attention.

I haven't reached this task yet but can you request donations from neighbours the night before and accept the donations when prompted? This is only my second Tales and I didn't have this task the first time (low levels). I'm afraid that I might be tight on time. Thanks for the help.

Great story - thanks for posting. Love that it ties previous tales together and hints to future tales. I like having an ongoing story line rather than random tales.

You will need to wait until you get this act before requesting from neighbors .

Sorry this isn't an answer :rolleyes:, but I wanted to add more to this question. I haven't taken a tales to the end in a long time, but will do so for Glasswing. The donations confuse me.

-Is this like requesting maps?
-Does it matter how many people I ask for donations?
-----should I pick 20* people I know are likely to be online? (*20 is how many maps you can receive in one day????)
-----should I pick 40+ people to ask and hope for the best?

If I ask 40 people, or 60 people, or whatever number of people, what happens? Do they all receive the request and then once my 15 donations have come in, the requests sent out to others disappear?

What happens if I send out a request to 20 people & 10 people respond and 10 people don't respond... Can I send out more requests to new people????

Does anybody really know the answers to these questions or can someone from TL please respond.

I can't believe this donations task is required to complete tales, on the last day none the less. Understandably, the tales-tasks become increasingly more difficult as one reaches the final day. But the tasks are able to be completed without spending gold if one plans well enough in advance and logs into the game frequently. The tasks are generally able to be controlled by the player (let's just ignore those 8 battles in the arena for now :mad:). Having this pointless "donations task" takes control away from the user and seems little more than a thinly veiled gold trap. Just my (frustrated) 2 cents, TL.

40 spears for 20 hours, so 2 spears per hour of food grown.

You can only request when prompted from the task in the Act. You can only receive 20 items from Neighbors per day but you can request from all neighbors. Issues with the time when we needed 20 items from Neighbors was some people had old map requests that came in instead of the new request. As soon as I see a new Tales I stop asking for maps until I know if there are items in Tales I need from Neighbors. Yes you can request from new neighbors just added but once you receive 20 of any combination of items in a day you can not receive any more. I hope this helps.

amerirish
08-23-16, 10:18 AM
Take this warning from my personal experience: if you have a lot of neighbors (probably 100+) DO NOT REQUEST FROM ALL NEIGHBORS AT ONE TIME/ON THE SAME DAY. Last Tales event, I had to spend 155 non-refundable gold because my requests would not go through to my neighbors because a request I sent out days before somehow clogged or blocked the system. Now, I will only send out 20 per day and to different neighbors. This of course makes the task that much more difficult which totally supports the gold trap theory in my experienced opinion.

Next time use Love/Olympus only 3 fails 7hr,15,hr & the 28 is a Prime so unless you're Love & Olympus are both Lv15 your all good.

I have not noticed it pointed out to be sure and do the quests many more times than they are asked for in order to have the amount of items needed to craft the glass flower, anvil, and furnace. I have found out that I never have enough from just questing when prompted by the act. Need 20 shields, 14 coals and 2 blue sapphires.

08-23-16, 01:20 PM
Ok I have a suggestion here.
What if we form an Alliance ...
20 players who will have each others back when ever S8 throws the ( request donations) acts at us.
A lasting Alliance that will not only see us through this event but those to come.
It would be easier than trying to find suitable players within our existing neighbourhoods and we still have plenty of time to set it up.
Just thinking out loud :)

I love the idea, we'll have to create a list on a separate thread I think. I'm in the game practically every waking minute so feel free to include me :)

I totally agree, I send my dragon out on quests as often as possible after I've leveled them up to the requirements which I do immediately upon hatching them. Currently my Forgefather is evolving to level 10 while I wait for Chapter 4 to start.

It's the timeline thing that could be tricky ( 7am Wednesday here in New Zealand) but could work.

Yes is true, so we will be on the same time line I'm in theory 2 hours behind but reset is at the same time. IF you want you can send me an invite and put me on your donation list if you like!

........If anyone needs a neighbour who will gift donation after reset feel free to add me, am always playing at that time of day!

Yes you can but you will have extra parts left in storage as there is a sturdy steel quest in Chapter 9, I am going to do mine after the chapter 9 quest as it will be ready for Chapter 10. The dragon anvil you have to craft when requested however.

So I'm really disappointed in the prize of 16 island parts at the end of chapter 5. I can't use them my islands from mining have been done for some time now and my mine is blocked off. Is there or will there be an alternative prize for those of us who already had are islands completed. I'll take maps. Thk u

Hello S8, I just received 15 Island Parts. As I have reached the max.of island expansion a while ago, what can I do with this prize?

I hope you will in the future consider a habitat as a prize, this will be much appreciated. I am sure players will be happy too!

Random59 re : dragon anvil... I thought you can craft ahead of time and wait till prompted before removing it from the spell shop? pls clarify much oblige

Sorry been at work no Dragon anvil needs to be crafted at the Chapters request as it asks you to craft the anvil in one of the acts. The mighty furnace says in the act says have so you can craft early.

Reflecting on what I have just said, you can craft it early but you must leave it in the craft shop until the act request you to craft it,if it is in the craft shop the game will tell you you already have something crafting, exit it out of the message and the finish crafting. If you place it before the request you will not be credited for it. HOpe this helps.

The battles are grueling!!!
I am level 110 , so playing at high lvl.
Am at chapter 5 .. Started my battles a Around yesterday afternoon and stilling not been able to do 4 battles.
Am stuck with castle lvl 13 and have tried all the recommended Dragons. I have a 6 deep line of dragons waiting to visit the spa.
I was hoping for a tournament last night as it makes easier to do the battles but no such luck.
With a total of 24 battles to win.....

And I so do want the glasswing as it is a Rainbow/ champion . Willing to sacrifice all the food that is needed to get it.

Any suggestions as to beat CASTLE DRAGON???

Just a question to top level players ...... I'm L182 ...... I have RS L15 champ/rainbow and Glasswing is the same combo only difference is Rs is super rare Glasswing is ultra rare .....this tales is food hungry , high battle numbers and needing neighbour support in the last chapter which is usually difficult and the vast amounts of food needed throughout the tales do you really consider its worth going through to the finish .......
I've completed ch5 but struggling to get all the crafting pieces and food to eventually hopefully complete
Just asking ..... Not complaining :)

Dear Storm 8. You put island parts as a prize with insane food and this many battles for high level players during tales and you can kiss my average of 100 bucks a month good bye cuz I'm already not doing your Leader Boards. The dragons first and last were some of the best but this is impossible and the useless island parts took my wanting to even try to win glass wing away.

Hi I am level 192. I also have RS but going to try to get this one. I don't know whether it's going to be any better than RS in battle as RS is not my best fighter. But i really like this one. Besides, we can always grow more food but this one will be gone if we miss it.

You can completely avoid Virtue (33 hours) and Justice (25 hours) fails by breeding Love (or any other white-red dragon) with Olympus.

Sorry for replying late as had to go out!!

Thank you for your help. But before I went out I tried the blue white combos I had,I.e blue moon, Moonglow.... They both lost miserably. And before that my level 12 champion had lost twice.(???) As this was my 10th try and I still had 2 more battles for chapter 5 .. And another 6 of chapter 6 looming ahead.. And I was already into day 6. ... So I ultimated it.
Thankfully the battles in chapter 6 have not been so tough till now ( fingers and toes crossed) I have already done 3 and 3 more to go..hope I don't have anymore trouble.

Hi Pern. I totally hear what you are saying. I don't compulsively participate in all tales any more. But this one is special. I bought the RS pack when it came out and it is the only time I have spent real money in a game, ever. While it was definitely worth it and RS is my best fighter now, it has left me with a sense of unfulfillment and I want to get a rainbow/champ on my own merit.

As far as the foods are concerned, we can safely assume that this will be the new standard from now on and if we are to participate in tales we have to be prepared with atleast this much food. I would say, give it a try and see how long you can go without stressing up too much. Good luck.

08-24-16, 07:03 AM
I am participating in this tales for the sole purpose of getting the Glasswing ,which is an UR and that too a Rainbow /Champion combo. I do not have the RS and have seen many players using it in battles, so I hope to raise it to lvl 15 ASAP. That in itself is going to be an uphill task with the amount of food it will require! After finishing the tales my food levels are going to be very low and I will have to do non stop aggressive farming to build up my food lvls.
But I feel it is worth it .. And if I have to UH one or 2 opponents... I feel totally worth it.

topgate44
08-24-16, 08:18 AM
light at lower level you can't breed you buy for 150,000 from market. Love is red/white. many combos there. fire/light. playful/light.

virtue is from the same you usually get virtue first then love.

I am doubtful about this one's usefulness in battles.. I think all the earlier ultra rare, champion dragons earned from tournaments and tales have failed in battles miserably (at least that is the case on my island).. Let's see how this one performs..

I can't get a level 13 Goldwing to go down!
I'm stuck on Ch 4 on my 5th day because I can't get through my 2nd battle. I even had to ultimate my first battle because i only had a 10% chance of winning and I had never used gold on the battles of the Tales until maybe the last day. I'm not going to ultimate again here.
I've tried Award, Cursed Idol, Germany, Amphora, Astro, Camelot, Chariot, Comic,Warrior Princess and others, some more than once!
This isn't a tournament and I'm only on Chapter 4 for goodness sake.
Any suggestions to beat a gold producing dragon?
Thanks

Just adding...I'm level 167 and I've looked back at previous posts and see it's not just me having difficulty with these battles.
Frustrating to realize the odds are against me so soon. Will have to rethink how far I'll try to go as the last dragon will be unattainable with so many battles.

I beat Goldwing 13 with Rose Knight 15 last night. This one can sometimes hard to beat. I use champ to beat dragons level 13 up and use diamond 15 to beat high level champ. Good luck, otherwise you can use battle arena calculator, it's very helpful.

Yeah same here. Someone recommend a red/white combo (love or laser light) and Olympus to take the virtue and justice fails out of the equation. Haven't tried as yet, still waiting for my virtues to hatch and finish breeding.

How long do requests stay active? I sent out 31 requests for maps yesterday am, I have since received 25 maps, how long will the other 6 requests stay active?

The reason I am asking is because on Sunday I will be wanting to send out donation requests and if I don't get another map back before then I will be 1 short, if 1 were to come back on Sunday.

Remember when you send out requests do not send to Stormie. Stormie's reply does not count towards the 20 a day limit.
What you need to do is request from Stormie if you are 1 short. This was experienced in a Tales where you had to get 20 on the last day, where many people, myself included only receive 19. Thankfully I played the Stormie request and got the 20.

You get glass spears in addition to apples. So plant your (any) food and you will get spears when you harvest.

You should be safe. There has been some informal research on the matter of map requests and length active. (Deedee may not agree with "informal" to describe her efforts.) Basically you send your requests out and get back hopefully 20 on Day 1. If you don't send any out on Day 2, a few more will drift in. On Day 3, you will seldom get any back from the original round. I can't remember anyone saying that they received a 4 day old map request.

These quests have long become completely impossible to complete :( I can never have enough food to level the dragons they want me to level to SUCH high levels. I understand leveling to 5, 7, maybe even 10, but anything beyond that, is just impossible and moreover, I don't want all these random dragons to be anything over level 9-10 to begin with. I only want the ultra rares at 11+. This is so beyond annoying.

P.S. I am currently level 183, so I get the worse type of set of goals and yes, getting enough food is extremely difficult to level anything to level 10 and worse to any levels beyond that.

Wow, just was looking ahead to see what I need to get ready. Breed a virtue dragon with another. I didn't even have a Virtue until I got one with a fail setting up for hatching a love dragon. Virtue is a 33 hour breed/hatch/evolve so I can be ready for day 9. It's also a rare so good luck to anyone who needs one. Day 10 is going to be hectic.

What is the best combination to get a life dragon

I got mine with fire +forest.
I started breeding the required Dragons early in the quest. I got life when the task asked us to breed forest with any other dragon .. So my life has been sitting on the nest for the past so many days. I was able to buy a 2nd nest some time back , so I was able to carry on with my other breeding requirements.

I never get the common ones on these tales - last time I needed a life dragon it took me 6 tries! On the plus side I do get some good dragons!

Now I'm seriously mad. I have only been farming 5 farms for a whole day because I put 2 of them on 20 hrs so I could pass 7:4 and when I farmed them as prompted I only got 2 shards a piece.

I was getting 2 shards per every 1 harvest of the 1 hr. Crop. Eek...I can't remember the name as I always plant DD. But I was shocked to see 2 shards, I don't know why the discrepancies. Maybe I had good luck just for having to sit though three virtue fails.

I feel like I'm playing catch up with this tales, the tales started all by its self, 36 hours before I noticed, so I was grateful that I caught up almost straight away, but then I'm convinced that chapter 4 started on chapter 3, and for some reason I'm really struggling to win battles, my opponents seem to be ridiculously hard, for example I'm on loosing to dark crystal 14........ Is anyone else experiencing this?

Forest & Fire (6 outcomes) or Life & Olympus (8 outcomes). Personally I'm going to use Dino & Fire because there's only 6 outcomes, with Life being the only Common and if I get a Rex 'fail' I will have all the Dino dragons! :D Good luck!!

I got lucky and just did Life & Diamond and got three hours. My trick has been to try for the needed dragons days before it's actually needed. It ties up one nest for a while but I've noticed it's easier to get the common dragons you'll need if you're not on or close to the step when they're needed.

So, what are the chances of getting it again? All those who have tried for Pink, and know how hard it is to breed...? That's right! 100%! I got another 32 Hour Virtue today on my 2nd try! Fire and Red Rose. I won't need the Love until after reset tonight, but I'm not thinking the "ODDS" are in my favor. :rolleyes:

Kitsune/Light, Kitsune/Olympus, Virtue/Light, Virtue/Olympus are good combinations to stay away from Virtue fails. Any Pink with Olympus itself will give you four options: Olympus, Love, Laserlight and Prime Power.

I haven't requested any maps since the tales started and I'm still receiving them from my last request over a week ago. (I'm in the middle of chapter 7 right now so haven't received them as a chapter prize today.) Yesterday I had 59/60 and today I had 60/60 and was able to start an expansion. So it's definitely safest to not send out any requests once a tales is announced until it's over.

I'm on Chapter 9 .... Deliberately sped the chapters yesterday because of normal life time demands which coincide with last two chapters especially on the last chapter , my decison as I really want to completed this one , often I don't bother to go past second dragon ......

Chapter nine complete.... Had just enough food to raise white glass dragon to last evolution to L10 now to scavenge food from mines and farms to get to L13 for last chapter, once done just have decide when to start last chapter to stand a chance of finishing .... Life gets in the way of DS ... ( two newish rescue older dogs both with health problems one with severe in patient care for 4 days plus normal life of course :) )

How many gems does it cost to start chapter 10 early? Thanks!

A tournament! Praise be! We have a chance to complete those 8 battles on the final day if we throw the tournament and save the first eight rounds for the tasks.

I am so happy right now! Especially as we already have a Guardian Angel Dragon so we're not even missing out on a new dragon.

I have finished chapter 8 today. I was sure we would get a tournament today . But a flash tournament??? I was expecting a six day one as we just had a flash one last time. My bad!!!
Now I am in a dilemma. Either I throw the tournament which I really don't want to as the prize is a champion. OR I speed up my days so that I can complete my dragon tales without a hitch....
Aaaarrghh. ...

I need to win 2 more battles for chapter 6 and now a tournament starts and my prize fighter dragon has lost to a lvl 1 in the first round. Do I not participate in the tournament to keep my battles at the lower levels for the rest of the event? Or try to finish Tournament quickly and get back to normal battles? Or will it really make a difference either way?

I'm at the exact same place as you in chapter 6. The good thing is the Tournament will be over in 3 days and after this chapter we don't have any battles until chapter 10. It will be over by the time we get there!

Oh wow, that's right! I don't know why I was thinking I had a lot more battles than that coming up still. Whew! Well, I didn't start off well but I don't have a Guardian Angel dragon yet so I'll give it a shot. Hopefully I won't have too much trouble with these last 2 chapter 6 battles. Good luck to everyone still working on this. :)

Seriously?? A free boosted breed weekend?? I would LOVE that but can't tie up breeding den at the end of chapter 8, since I will need it tomorrow in Chapter 9. I also must pass on the tournament to have easier battles on the last chapter. Does anyone else feel like stepping outside and screaming?

My sentiments exactly!! ..
Though I have started on the tournament and was thinking of paying and starting the next chapter,.. Just realized that my craft shop is tied up for another 8 hrs crafting the courier dragon.
So now I feel it was a mistake to take the early fights today. Now am waiting for tomorrow start of day 9 .. Will have everything in place so that I can breeze through it and then speed up and start day 10 early to give myself some extra time to finish it

The dragons for this event are so beautiful! I ❤️ them!
Unfortunately, I will not be winning them! Battles are next to impossible for me! Do you know how many battle you are to win to get the top dragon⁉️ 24, yes 24‼️ O M Cheddar whiz‼️ I am already a day behind and stuck on Chapter 6, at least with the tournament I might get the second dragon! Anybody have any pointers on these battles? My only strategy now is to fight with a dragon that does not have any of the colors the opponent does. Only 2 of my dragons are above level 10, I level up the diamond dragon thinking that might be a good fighter, because diamonds are the hardest substance known to man, but so far it has pretty much proved itself to be a wimp!!!! Help!

Well..using a dragon that has different color than opponent's is actually not that bad a strategy. But if you want a 'pointer', find any of the battle tournament threads here in forum. In the first page you will see a detailed list as to what color is to use against a particular color and what colours are to avoid.

Re: diamonds usually become super fighter only at level 15. Before that, they are more or less wimps. Good luck.

Yup ....I started ch 10 early to get the extra time with 50 gold because of the uncertainty of the known difficulty of requested donations in past tales I'm on that section of chapter 10 now I'm 5 hours into asking now and am waiting for the last one now for the last hour ..... But have to wait ......
(Also I gave a sick iPad 2 which needs replacing which means I have aproblem logging into the game because it keeps crashing when loading DS so just have to keep trying till it connects up ....just to add to the frustration :( )

Congratulations! Lol, I enjoyed reading how you overcame the extra frustrations (like the iPad issues.) Chapter 10 really IS incredibly tight. I will probably follow your lead and start it early, as well. I've got a couple more days to think about it, though (on Chpt. 7, atm.)

Thank you very much. I have 699 unique dragons. I searched and searched and did not find(...)

I wish TL would add select buttons to our album like we have in the Battle Arena (i.e., show me all my Diamond dragons or Blue dragons, etc.)

Regards, Deb

Love this idea! It would definitely make it easier to find dragons, especially on the larger islands of long-time/high-level players. In fact, I rarely even look at my album the way it is now. There's just way too many dragons to scroll through to find anything specific.

The cool new buttons they added to the breeding den are extremely useful, really speeds things up. I'd also like to see them added to the arena. That would be super-handy, too!

When I finished chapter 9 around 11 this morning I jumped ahead and lined everything up by 4pm I still only had TWO of the 15 needed from my neighbors. It is now 9:35pm and I only have 12 of the 15. This is why I skipped ahead. It isn't right for them to put us at the mercy of neighbors fulfilling a request. I couldn't finish the last one because of this so I paid gems.

Yes I know I have the same features with my Rainbow Sentinal but I really like how the dragon looks. It is TeamLava I am getting fed up with from these quests and challenges that require gems to be spent

Simdiva
08-27-16, 07:08 PM
As far as your invites do you have maps clogging your inventory. If so, you might want to clear them out even if it means speeding up an expansion. That might be your problem, not a lack of people responding. Spending gems is your own choice I almost never spend gems except to possibly speed up and occasionally skip a task I may not want to do because it's inconvenient. I just put glass wing on the nest and the only gems spent were the gems spent to start day ten early and I did skip planting fire app,Es so I could collect my dates all in one shot. I have not found this takes that difficult. The entire key is planning and being prepared. I don't feel anyone should be complaining about gems over it as there is ample time to get everything done. The only reason I skipped ahead was because we had a tourney going on anyhow and I am getting a bit battle weary. I also just put my second courier on to craft. I will be happy to rest for a few days before the leaderboard and likely tourney on Tuesday. My food is not even depleted thanks to the mine giving nothing but food and magic is bringing back good reppbenes since I levelled him to ten. Usually at least 500. Hope this helps some.

There is a common misconception that team lava tweaks the battles and makes them tougher during takes. I have never found this to be true and I think that it's just luck of the draw. F you do your color matching rather than relying on champs for every battle you have a winning strategy. Also I believe the limit was raised to 25 a while back.

I'm running behind on chapter 7....just started crafting the white glass dragon and will still need to hatch it too. Good thing chapter 8 doesn't involve too much. I will use gold to start chapter 10 as soon as I finish chapter 9 to ensure I have plenty of time to finish. Hopefully that will be all the gold I end up spending on this. I was very lucky with breeding this time around and I'm barely going to scrape by on food. I keep telling myself I'm going to skip some events and catch up on things like leveling up my gold paying dragons and some great dragons I managed to accumulate recently that are supposed to be strong in battle and some I just want to level up because I like the way they look. Then I see the dragons for the events and there goes the idea of skipping them. Sigh. I particularly like these 3 and their habitat. :D

Actually the furnace can be crafted and placed at anytime or just left in storage. I waited till the end of chapter nine to ensure all parts were used up but normally these large deco items I craft and place as soon as I have the parts. The key word is "have" not "craft"

Even starting the first day at level 41 there is no way to complete this tale unless I spend money, which is not an option I have. Extremely disappointed. The last one was hard, but doable. This one is not. I've been stuck trying to feed that forgefather dragon, the number of food required is insane.

newzealander
08-27-16, 11:35 PM
Passera, I think it is 2-3 spears per hour per crop. So 3x5 hour crops should give you around 35-40 spears, and 3x8 hour crops should give you around 55-60. So you should be fine.

I am in the exact same boat.

Currently level 59.

I planned it all out. I got the White Glass Dragon to 10 early.

I figured 10 was the max because well 1.) It is listed as being the requirement and 2.) all other events with brackets based on level, the highest you needed for the mid bracket was 10.

I am going to try to farm food now but I doubt I will be able to make it. I am crushed if I can't. I seriously hope this is a bug.

I don't even have the thing that LETS me get them above level 10 yet.

It is, but that isn't the issue here.

All the past events have required level 10 max for the 41-90 bracket; all the info for this event indicated a level 10 max. I planned for getting to level 10 max. I didn't plan to have to get another 30k food because from all indications I shouldn't of needed to.

As it stands now, all the planning and work I put in is all for naught because of this. I can't get the 30k food in time. I could of if I knew they would just randomly change it to 11 with no precedent.

I just am hoping it's a bug at this point.

Actually the furnace can be crafted and placed at anytime or just left in storage. I waited till the end of chapter nine to ensure all parts were used up but normally these large deco items I craft and place as soon as I have the parts. The key word is "have" not "craft"
Yes you are right , think I err on carefulness because of my own totally personal difficulties trying to finish this specific tales :)

Spent the 50 gold to speed up seven hours later and still waiting on four more neighbors I have a 20 hour crop ready to harvest planted 3 farms with 8 hour crops since it is almost bedtime I also have 3 5 hour diamond dates planted can anybody tell me if that will get me at least close to the 80 spears needed from planting?

You get two spears per hour so with all dates planted which is what I did you would be short ten. I then planed a found if rush rooms to finish. Al, crops workout the same now. So if you do pears which are 8 hours you will get 16 for each one and forty for every 20 hour. In my opinion it's not really worth interrupting your normal planting routine. Ie I normally plant dates at night, and usually rush rooms the first hour or two in the morning while I wake up before I switch to grapes if I plan on doing them.

I highly recommend keeping a stock of food to be ready for tales, depending on your level.

Personally I never go below 500k between tales. Yes it takes a while to build up the stock, but once you get there it is just the new base level. After a tale no feeding before I am back to 500 k

It is, but that isn't the issue here.

All the past events have required level 10 max for the 41-90 bracket; all the info for this event indicated a level 10 max. I planned for getting to level 10 max. I didn't plan to have to get another 30k food because from all indications I shouldn't of needed to.

As it stands now, all the planning and work I put in is all for naught because of this. I can't get the 30k food in time. I could of if I knew they would just randomly change it to 11 with no precedent.

I just am hoping it's a bug at this point.

Same here, don't have enough food nor the noble crystal :(. I was shocked! But I doubt it's a bug, I mean for all of us the same bug???

If it is a bug, it effecting everyone wouldn't be too crazy.

I feel like it's not a bug but I really hope it is.

If I can manage to beat Spartan without using gold I might just use gold and skip the level 11 and hope for the best.

I put so much into this event and having it all mean nothing just because of misinformation that came to light after it was too late really sucks.

Pretty much :\ I'd been stockpiling for over a month and had just enough to get both Forgefather and White Glass to 10, and I kept checking every source I could find for the 41-90 level tasks to make sure I could, this is the first Tales grand prize I actually wanted to work for...

I hold out a faint hope it's a bug though, since the Aladdin event actually had something like this for me (I think it was get Aladdin to like... level 10 instead of 7 or 8?) and I still got the Sultana somehow... but the more time passes, the less likely it can be finished either way.

I am fighting my 6th battle for the tales and it is my 12h in the tournament( the dreaded Spartan). Have already lost twice to it with my lvl 10 Infinity and lvl14 Forgefather . But still have about 20 hrs to do the last 3 battles . So hopefully will be able to do them in time. And also get closer to getting the Guardian

Omg I'm out of food now please let me know how much food I need to get lvl 13 ? :confused::rolleyes:

147500 apples.


Dear S8, Could you please start using the 'Special' tab in the crafting hut for event items? That would make it much easier to see what special, temporary items are involved in each new event, and make it faster and more convenient to check on how many materials we need to collect to craft these items. Thanks!
Yes, please. If you can do it in the quest outpost, why not in the spell shop? :confused:

Passera, I think it is 2-3 spears per hour per crop. So 3x5 hour crops should give you around 35-40 spears, and 3x8 hour crops should give you around 55-60. So you should be fine.

It's like Simdiva said, it's now exactly two items per hour per crop, they even lowered that amount too :( In your case the 20 and 8 hour crops are enough (40+3*16=88 spears) ;)


Have just finished, thanks to Kiwi Isles wonderful neighbours and I actually bred a Neon, think I'm more excited about breeding a new dragon! Wish all who are still continuing the best,:)

Congrats, especially on Neon! It's one of my favorite breeding dragons because of all split-of colors. Together with Diamond Prism he's been giving me a lot of new dragons :)


As for me, instead of spending 50 gold starting chapter 10 early, I spent 38 on speed battling in the Guardian Angel tournament to finish that before chapter 10 battles.
Forgot to plant 2 scalypears yesterday, so planted 5 eliteleeks over night. Used 8 gold to speed up 4 firapples, with scalypears that would have been 2 gold.
Donations came in within 45 minutes (Thank you all ;):):)), 1st battle won, now waiting for second. I should be able to finish these tales without spending more gold today.

After two virtues in a row then a laser light, I used Gold to skip the love hatching.
Now if I can get these neighbour donations in quick, I might even still have a chance to finish this one.

Mid-level players chapter 9 act one craft a dragon anvil - The required quest do not give you enough material to complete the craft . You will have to do a sturdy steel and elegant glass quest with forefather to get the required materials . I suggest doing this ahead of time or you'll be delayed by four hours

Doing battles for chapter 10. I actually already had Guardian Angel, which meant I could hold off battles and just take the first 8 easy battles from the tournament.

Well I could have. Unfortunately I couldn't help myself and had to take on the challenge. Now with my second Guardian Angel secured I just have 7 more battles to do. Oh well

It actually is possible. I sped up to give myself more time on day 10 but 15mins for donations (wow, thanks guys) and then winning every battle first time meant that I finished a day early. :-)

Finally caught up to Ch 8 on my 8th day yesterday, after being a day behind due to the battles in Chapters 4, 5 and 6. My Chapter 6 battles coincided with the start of the tournament since I was a day behind, so that helped. Breezed through Chapter 9 today and paid the 50 gold (ouch) to start Ch 10 early today as donations should be easier to receive on the weekend when less people are working and able to play more. So after spending gold, I am committed to finishing the Tales, after having a discouraging start. Only 8 difficult battles remain and I can choose to finish the tourney today to get 7 of them or wait until tomorrow and get random dragons to battle which can be just as hard as tournament dragons.

I admire all of you who persevered and finished (especially without spending any gold)! This was the most difficult tales yet with all the battles and crafting the first two dragons.
Good luck to all still battling through all the chapters and steps!

For those of you needing more food, don't forget to go to your mines where you can get from 50 to 1000 apples. I used up all my dynamite and bombs and probably got about 30,000 apples this way.

What I have noticed in the mines is that the dragon egg side ... Where. You get sulphurite for sulphur dragon... It has given me only food and sulphurite. No coins. ... So that is also a good coincidence.

Sorry to my neighbours waiting on donations but the game is messing with us.
Just went in and I had 2 requests, one 6mins and one 2hrs old.

I have been in and out of the game at least 5-6 times over the last 2hrs, how come their request didn't show earlier?

This is really hard. Trying to farm up food fast enough to feed Rivets to 10. Just need 2 more feedings I think but I don't think I'll make it seeing as how then I also have to hope people reply to donation requests too. Yeah not feeling so hopeful about that lol. He needs to go on a diet.

I have this happen on other days too unrelated to this event, just with people wanting maps and such. I'll log out fully a couple times and then later in the day find there are 6+ hour old requests and they weren't there at all before!

Congrats! Yes, it completely depends on how quick you get the donations and how tough the battles are.

Congrats on finishing! I decided to battle the tournament out of the way first so that the battles would be easier (usually I get stuck on at least a couple of rounds in a tourney) but the tournament was easy this time so now I'm hoping the normal battles won't be too hard tomorrow. At least they are much cheaper to ultimate if need be.

Waiting 2.5 hours to get my "donations" for my other account (Velika's island) was excruciating to wait - mainly because it gave me a couple of maps from neighbors even though I haven't requested them in days. My main account had all of them in less than an hour. On Velika's I added neighbors just to request more donations since itd gotten stuck at 12. Thankfully those extra neighbors responded and did the trick!

Now to get all my crops done so I can focus on battles.

You spend half a million coins to buy a blue crystal thingy that lets you feed the dragons as far up as 15. It's called a "Noble Crystal."

You have to purchase a noble crystal, then your dragons can be raised ti level 15. Go to Market; Buildings; you'll see the noble crystal there.

I'm halfway through my battles. Didn't go through the tournament earlier so I'd mainly be dealing with the lower level opponents. 8 battles when a clock is ticking is a lot to get through. And Glasswing was more important to me than Guardian Angel.

I nodded off but luckily woke up 30 minutes into the new game day. So I was able to ask for my donations at the start. I realized that if you ask for the donations at the beginning of the game day, that glitch where you you don't get them all or you're waiting hours for them to show up doesn't seem to happen. That's why I started the tournament on day 1 so my day 10 would be on a Sunday and there would be no issue with me being/getting up at 3am my time to do that request.
