Feeding Dragons

[uevenliftbro]

Let me get this straight.. TL made the food prices 15 times more than the old prices for the light dragons.. To put that in perspective..

It takes 144,300 food to level a light dragon from 1-10.(it takes 9620 for a non-light)

IF you were to have SIX farms and growing ONLY scalypears, you would be waiting ~687 HOURS to get that amount of food, spending ~2.679Million coins.

144,300(totalfood) / 700(foodperfarm) = 206 / 6(no.offarms) = 34 x 20(hourspergrow) = ~687(hourstotal)
144,300(totalfood) / 700(foodperfarm) = 206 x 13,000 = ~2,679,000(coinstotal)

Now, that would be TOO EASY, here's what would happen if you planted diamondates instead.. You would wait ~150 HOURS and pay over 13.5MILLION coins...

144,300(totalfood) / 800(foodperfarm) = 180 / 6(no.offarms) = 30 x 5(hourspergrow) = ~150(hourstotal)
144,300(totalfood) / 800(foodperfarm) = 180 x 75,000(costpergrow) = ~13,528,000(coinstotal)

In other words you (literally) wait a whole MONTH by growing scalypears in turn saving some coins OR you spend ~5x the amount of coins and only wait just under a week.

All statistics are assuming that you are playing actively and replanting your crops the second that they are finished, stats are under calculated if this factor is not included.

And TL wonders why this bothers us?..

Just to add, if I was to spend GOLD to get that amount of food(I'm lvl 63) it would cost 1,924 gold(@18,750per250gold) which comes to $73 dollars if i was to buy the 2900 gold deal.($74 buying 1400 and 530 separately, which comes close enough).

Good calculations OP.

I don't think many of us would care if the prices/food amounts were double but fifteen times is just ridiculous.

well if having a n epic dragon would get better results in breeding .. i would understand to try and have epics.... but since epics don't make a difference just feed them to level 6 or 7

wow i didnt know people actually buy food with gold ..i would never do that

I don't think anyone actually DOES buy food with gold, I was just making the point to prove how silly the whole thing is. And i agree with you on you're first point.

Just don't get the light dragons. If you don't want to feed them that much why not concentrate on something else.

I dont understand. My light dragon is now level 9, and each feeding is 1000, same as every other dragon?? Why do people keep sayings its more expensive? Does it go above level 10 or do u feed it after last evolution?

What version are you playing? In the new dawn to feed ligh dragons on level 9 you need 15,000 * 5 to get to level 10

1.0.5.4. The new dawn isnt for android.

So, it really doesn't matter if you breed with Epics or not? You have as much chance of getting what you want using low level dragons? Or is there a "magic number" that the dragons levels should be at in order to be more successful at breeding?
