When the gemstone dragons disappeared from the spell shop, the lotus dragon went too. I guess S8 just forgot about that goal.
I will flag this over.

We can craft it with Essence, but I agree that it should not be a goal anymore since the Spell Shop no longer exists, and people shouldn't have to use Essence to craft one if they don't want one.
1. Tap on the CODEX at the bottom right of your screen
2. Filter the list by tapping on the symbol for BLACK type dragons
3. Scroll down until you are in the RARE zone of dragons that you DON'T HAVE and look for the LOTUS Dragon. You will have to look at the names because the dragon's icon will be a grey relief and not a full colored picture because you do not have the dragon yet.
4. Tap on the Lotus Dragon to open up the Lotus Dragon's album card. At the bottom right of its card should be a button to purchase it for 400 essences. Note, this button is only present if you don't have the selected dragon.
If you have the required amount of essence, go ahead and purchase it. If not, you'll have to trade off unwanted dragons to build up your level of essence.
Thank you so much deadpixel! That really helped. Thank you!
In your opinion, is Lotus a good dragon to use essence on? I’ve only got 120 essence. Took me ages to save up that much
For me, getting the Lotus Dragon was just so I could complete the quest, and in those days, all you had to do was to send your neighbors requests for the required part. I find that it is good to have around as it is useful as another “pure black” dragon, but I personally wouldn’t spend 400 essences on it unless it happens to be one of the last dragons I need to get to complete my dragon collection.
As for building up your Essence stockpile, never let your Trading Post rest. Always have a line of dragons ready for disenchanting and favour trading Rares over Common, Super-Rares over Rares and Ultra-Rares over all. IMHO, I feel that disenchanting commons are a waste of time, 2 points of Essence for a 12-hour wait? But, if you only have a common dragon at hand, then I guess it’s better than nothing.
