I'm on Android and bought Rainbow cuz it was cheaper than the amt of gold I used failing to breed it. Buying Rainbo was my best purchase b/c I bred both Ruby & Emerald back to back. I used Epic Fire & Gemstone lvl 8 to get Ruby. I used Epic Forest & Gemstone lvl 8 to get Emerald. The next day I believe I used either Bat or Night Elf lvl 9 & Gemstone lvl 8 to get Sapphire. Yesterday I also used Night Elf lvl 9 & Gemstone lvl 8 to get Hunter. I may have used Bat versus Night Elf but I was trying for Tiger's Eye when I surprisingly got Hunter as a fail.
I will suggest using Bat & Gemstone to help u get great fails. I always put Gemstone 2nd when breeding. For some strange reason it produces better results than when putting it 1st. I hope this helps some discouraged Android users. I was skeptical at 1st after the many Island fails but after I figured out putting Gemstone 2nd when breeding it's been well worth the aggravation.
I only need 14 of the existing dragons. I have 135 so far. I thank TL for creating Rainbow or I wouldn't have the opportunity like IOS users to obtain those beautiful gemstone dragons with better fails than normal breeding seems to allow.
Good luck everyone !!! We Androids just need more options like battling. Or I guess I'll continue to stay ahead of the breeding curve.
Island makes sense too, if you're attuned to the right sense.
What you say about Diamond is far from true. Diamond is a SINGLE PURE element that doesn't split. If it were four colors, then pairing Diamond with Fire could produce 4 or 5 different families of red hybrids! But Diamond-Fire can in fact only produce two dragons - either Fire or Crusader.
There's logic in all the breeding rules. It just isn't always apparent to every player. Also, since the rules differ from one group of dragons to another, it can be a daunting task to keep track.
Huh?
What does Rainbow have to do with using Gemstone to breed gemstones or other hybrids?
The Rainbow thing aside, I'm so glad to hear of your success so far with breeding these dragons. (I wish I had a Bat.) I'm hearing so much doom and gloom on this thread, it's enough to discourage any player - iOS or Android - from even trying. You are being creative and experimental with the breedings and you're clearly having a good time! High five!
