Once for free and all future changes are 1500Gems. there is also a 6month cooldown between flight changes. [*]You can disable/enable pings here. [*]you can make your Bestiary compact and decide how many are listed per page https://www1.flightrising.com/bestiary you can also tap the little book above the dragon wing on the upper right corner to get to your bestiary. [center] [b][size=5]Feed Type[/size][/b][/center] [*]I suggest selecting Selective. This way if you have(for example) a lot of plants but only a little seafood, you can feed your dragons plants first, and even if plants is their last choice of food, (if a dragon eats multiple types of food their favorite will be listed first) they'll eat it, then you can feed your next highest food and save your little pile of seafood for last [*]When selecting things in crossroads(CR) or private messages(pm) you can choose to have it automatically select the whole pile or just one. whichever you choose, you can edit it before confirming. [*]April Fools they always do something cute/funny to the graphics, you can disable that if you want it to be normal. [/LIST] [center][b][size=7] Things You Can Do Every Day[/size][/b][/center] So, I make a bunch of bookmarks on my bookmark bar to get around the site quickly, I will be sharing most of them here. There are things you can do every day, if you don't do them, you lose out on those things. at midnight flight rising time the game goes offline for 30minutes and resets all the things I am about to describe. I am going to go in the order that I personally play in, but feel free to do whatever suits you best [center][b][size=5]Baldwin's Bubbling Brew[/size][/b][/center] First I go to my cauldron at Baldwin's bubbling brew. https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/baldwin/transmute you can see all the recipes even if you can't make them yet, https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/baldwin/create/1 and the materials you make by "Melting" can sell for quite a bit on the AH (Auction House). Items that take 30minutes to melt, that you get by using your gathering turns (more on that later) can sell for 1g/kt or 25g/kt depending on the color. [LIST] [*]Food turns into Goo - try and only use food that is 2points, the goo you get is random and using higher food point food will not get you rarer colors [*]Materials turn into Ooze - use cheap stuff (value 15-30T) [*]Trinket/Other turns into Sludge - use cheap stuff(value 15-30T) [*]These 3 things have 6 different colors they turn into, from most common to least green, yellow, orange, red, purple, blue. [*]Yellow & orange are usually the cheapest, with the others being more expensive. Green items sell for more during the last week of every month ([b]Festivals[/b]) (Except December) ([b]Night of the Nocturne-NotN[/b]) [*]In December Yellow and Red items will sell higher during the last two weeks.([b]NotN[/b]) [*]Try and only use apparel and familiars that are 3g or less. To check the current AH price of an item, click on the item in your hoard, click on the little book at the bottom, this page will tell you where you can get the item, what it's used for, and all other details. Click on the money bag in the upper right corner, and it will bring you to the AH prices for that specific item. [*]Apparel turns into Slime Grey(Cheapest), Black, & White https://www1.flightrising.com/auction-house/buy/realm/app [*]Familiars turn into Muck, Copper (Cheapest), Silver, & Gold https://www1.flightrising.com/auction-house/buy/realm/fam [/LIST] If you have too many pages of stuff to scroll through to find what you need to melt, you can make a bookmark for that too! go into your hoard, Say Apparel, I like to narrow it down to stuff that isn't used anywhere else, so I'll click the little magnifying glass on the top left and in the bar that says [u]"Used in Features"[/u] select none. most of the cloth wraps are pretty cheap, so I'll type wrap in the [u]"Name"[/u] section and everything with that will pop up. then I bookmark it. After my cauldron is empty I will go to this bookmark and click one of the items, which will then give me the option to transmute it, But only if the cauldron is EMPTY https://www1.flightrising.com/hoard/apparel/1?name=wrap&sort=id_asc&use=none. [center][b][size=5]Archaeology Resources[/size][/b][/center] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/archaeology I usually do this later, but if it's your first time, you won't have any saved up. Go here to Muster Resources to get a randomized sort of digging materials that help you unlock cool stuff. https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/archaeology/dig-site/2 [i]Ancient Aerie[/i] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/archaeology/dig-site/1 [i]Thunder Lizards [/i] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/archaeology/dig-site/3 [i]Deepsea Dive[/i] I have one of these bookmarked, whichever one I am working on, but the only difference is the number at the end, which pertains to the level of archaeology you need to be. Ancient Aerie is level 2 Archaeology Experience so you won't be able to do that one right away. Hovering over the tools will let you know what they do, but here is a little extra info on "Share Research" you can send 3 notes at a time to someone on your friends list, as long as they don't already have 9 shared notes waiting to be collected. so if they have 0 notes from friends, you can send them 3 notes, 3 times. Once they collect those, you can do it again, there is no limit. [center][size=5][b]Pinkerton's Plundered Pile[/b][/size][/center] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/pinkpile This gives you one free item, I've gotten [item=berserker]&[item=ambush] here several times, they are worth about 20kt each. you can also just get random low cost things. [center][size=5][b]Fiona's Fantastic Familiars[/b][/size][/center] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/fantastic-familiars/flattery She has 8 random familiar bonding spaces, you'll get a small amount of treasure and you'll reach bonding experience with those specific familiars. You can equip familiars to your dragons and Bond(click) them everyday, (When using a keyboard, you can hover your mouse on the "Bond" button, click it, and tap the right arrow to go to the next page, where you can then click the bond button again.) [LIST] [*]After approximately 3 months of daily bonding you'll get a [item=gilded decorative chest] which sells round 40kt, the contents include between 5kt-10kt and 10g-20g and a handful of other items-a familiar, an apparel, and some junk that may or may not be useful. [*]Then first two levels of bonding give you [item=rusted treasure chest] They include 500T-2000T. Those almost never have apparel or familiars, but the stuff they give you is still helpful for different things in game. [*]The next 3 levels give you [item=iron treasure chest] which typically have 2kt-5kt & 1g-5g plus a familiar or an apparel and some junk. [/LIST] [center][b][size=5]Roundsey's Raffle Roulette[/size][/b][/center] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/raffle You can go here to buy tickets for raffle items, I do this once a week, I typically spend about 10kt for 20 tickets. I've won an egg and a retired 2013 item before that I sold for 5000g (5,000,000 Treasure) [center][b][SIZE=5]Tomo's Trivia Tablet[/size][/b][/center] I don't bother with this one. https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/trivia?continue=1 if answered correctly gives you 300treasure each right answer. 10 questions a day [center][b][size=5]Crim's Collection Cart[/size][/b][/center] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/crim You can visit once an hour for 5 offers. [s]which imo isn't really worth it, she offers a paltry amount of treasure, and you can probably get more on the AH(Auction House-player market)[/s] She is a [b]CRIM[/b]inal! she will offer 500 treasure for an eliminate, or an EGG, both of which are worth hundreds of gems! [center][b][size=5]Swipp's Swap Stand[/size][/b][/center] https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/swipp This changes every 2 hours and you can trade in stuff you have for special items [center][b][size=6]Dragon Breeding[/size][/b][/center] So much can go here...I advise breeding dragons constantly, a level 1 adult dragon, even if it's not pretty will sell on the AH for 6-8kt each, the following link brings you the the dragon AH and will show you adult, level 1 dragons that are selling for treasure. https://www1.flightrising.com/auction-house/buy/realm/dragons?currency=0&d_age=1&perpage=50&nocollapse=1&collapse=1 Exalting at level 1 will only get you about 2,500T Leveling to even just level 5 will get you about 9kt, level 7 will get you 10-12kt for exalting. If you have questions feel free to ask me [center][b][size=7]Festival's[/size][/b][/center] Every month except December there is a Festival to honor a specific flight. that starts on the last Sunday of the month at 6am FlightRising (FR) time and ends the following Sunday at 6am FR time January - [b]Ice [/b]Crystalline Gala February - [b]Shadow [/b]Trickmurk Circus March - [b]Wind [/b]Mistral Jamboree April - [b]Water [/b]Wavecrest Saturnalia May - [b]Nature [/b]Greenskeeper Gathering June - [b]Light [/b]Brightshine Jubilee July - [b]Lightning [/b]Thundercrack Carnivale August - [b]Fire [/b]Flameforger's Festival September - [b]Arcane [/b]Starfall Celebration October - [b]Plague [/b]Riot of Rot November - [b]Earth[/b] Rockbreaker's Ceremony December - Night of the Nocturne - [b]NotN [/b]- the last two weeks of December At this time, you can earn special currency and buy limited time items with that currency. Right now(not now now, but this year) it's 2 different pieces of apparel, a familiar and a Scene-the scene will be there next year, the other 3 items will be retired and the only way to get them will be the Raffle, the AH, and possibly Joxar's Spare Inventory Crate- which can only be bought once a month during the festival, https://www1.flightrising.com/exchange/joxars-spare-inventory it cost 80kt and contains a prismatic token, which is used to buy things in Joxar's shop, and a random item from a past festival, which is listed here: https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/23275/contents Unused currency can be used next year. During the festival week, say it's Plague, as that's happening next at the time of this edit, you can gather in any of the 6 sections in any flight and you'll get [item=all-seeing shroom] but only in Plague Digging can you get festival chests, these hold festival skins/accents that you can buy for 29,750-35kt, but if you are a low level gatherer you can probably get several thru-out the week. [item=plague's daughter chest]these chests have 1 or 2 gems and the skin/accent they are named with https://www1.flightrising.com/game-database/item/20102/contents [skin=20174] [center][u][i][b]COLISEUM STATS - [/b][/i][/u][/center] So, I've decided to add this here so I can stop writing it individually to every person I talk too, cause that gets old quick. I know that they have many wonderful pages of stat building, but they are long and drawn out. I know that your first instinct is to balance out your dragon skill points...that is [b]NOT [/b]the way to go. [center][b]FIGHTERS - [/b][/center] This is for the build where you can eventually use 1 level 25dragon to level 2 level 1 dragons at a time in the Mire. The only stats[i] (str/agi/vit/qck/int/def/mnd) [/i] that are important are [b]STR/VIT/QCK[/b] Vitality doesn't need to be higher than 33, ever, when your dragon is lvl 25 their stats should be about [b]120-122STR/18-33VIT/55-60QCK[/b] and that's with 3 berserker stones [item=berserker] but by level 10 their stats should be about [b]42STR/16VIT/25QCK[/b] that's without augment stones. Trust that, that will be much better for your dragons[/center] [center][u][i][b]Stones for your Fighter Dragon[/b][/i][/u][/center] [LIST] [*]You want your dragon to have Scratch or Irradiated Scratch, they do exactly the same thing, but one is green animation and you can make it in Baldwin's Bubbling Brew [item=scratch] [item=irradiated scratch] [*]Scratch is good when you are fighting against enemies that Meditate, that means the first turn or two, they just Breathe (no attack) and you can hit them without getting hit back. Scratch gives you 6 breath each time (different other attacks cost breath to use) HOWEVER... [*]My favorite to use is the Anticipate stone, [item=anticipate] or [item=plumed anticipate] they do the same thing, it's just an aesthetic which you can make in Baldwin's Brew. [*]Anticipate Gives you 4 breath when casting. if an enemy hits you before your next turn, you get an additional 15 breath from anticipate AND only 50% damage from the attack! If two enemies attack you before your turn cycles through again, then you'll get 30 breath! This stone is best for battling with enemies that attack first. [/LIST] the first two attacks you want in the second row are Shred [item=shred] does 30% damage for like 3-4 more turns and cost 10 breath to use. and one of these, depending on your element Earth[item=Rock slash]Plague[item=pestilent slash]Wind[item=gust slash]Water[item=wave slash]Lightning[item=thunder slash]Ice[item=freezing slash]Shadow[item=mist slash]Light[item=blinding slash]Fire[item=blazing slash]Arcane[item=rune slash]Nature[item=jungle slash] At lvl 11 the third slot opens up, and at that point you want to put Eliminate there [item=eliminate] does the damage of 3 scratches, costs 35 breath, but if you kill your enemy with the attack, your breath gets refunded, if not killed, then it's gone. Eliminate is currently 260G/299kt each (in the 8 years I have been playing went from 150kt to 750kt, then the game gave us all 3 free and prices have dropped down to 250-300kt, chances are whatever you see is the cheapest you'll see, so grab em when you can.) so go look in the forums and see if you can trade for it, you can also receive Eliminate from drops in the coliseum from any neutral enemy, so the higher amount of neutral enemies gives you a higher percentage of Eliminate drops. At levels 5, 7, & 13 the 3 slots where you'll put augment stones open up. you'll want 3 Might fragment in whatever element your dragon is. which will increase your STR by 2 per fragment. [item=earthen might fragment][item=diseased might fragment][item= zephyr might fragment][item=aquatic might fragment][item=frozen might fragment][item=shining might fragment][item=magical might fragment][item=natural might fragment][item=fiery might fragment][item=dark might fragment][item=charged might fragment] [b]Earth, Plague, Shadow or Fire [/b]dragons should use 3 Obsidian Hybrid Fragments [item=Obsidian Hybrid Fragment] which gives you +2STR, +1DEF, +1MND each The bottom two stone slots should have Ambush in them, they unlock at levels 5 and 15 [item=ambush] allows you to strike first in battle,(so 2 stones means 2 turns before enemies) currently about 20kt each in the AH (Auction House), you can also receive from Pinkerton's pile, check the forums or Ambush can be obtained in the Coliseum, dropped by neutral enemies. My dragon is equipped with anticipate, then haste, rally, eliminate, and i switch between Shred and A slash stone if my element is strong against more of the enemies in that venue. I use my level 25 with 2 level 1's in the mire/ghostlight ruins venues. I cast haste and rally on my lvl 25, anticipate until i have enough breath, make sure my rally is still active and one-shot eliminating all the enemies. sometimes i need to use a potion, but for the most part i can get my fodder to level 7-8 without dying. [center][b][size=7]HEALERS - [/b][/size][/center] The only stats[i] (str/agi/vit/qck/int/def/mnd) [/i] that are important are [b]VIT/QCK/INT[/b] Vitality doesn't need to be higher than 22, ever, when your dragon is lvl 25 their stats should be about [b]21 VIT/70 QCK/118 INT[/b] and that's with 3 scholar stones [item=scholar] but by level 10 their stats should be about [b]21VIT/31QCK/37INT[/b] this is without augment stones You want your healer to be faster than your other dragons because their healing ability Aid [item=aid] costs 40 Breath. and you'll need time to boost their breath and heal more often [center][u][b]Stones for Healer Dragons[/b][/u][/center] Meditate or Prismatic Meditate or Silverglow Meditate - they all do the same thing, it's just the animation that's different you can make those special ones in badwins bubbling brew. [item=meditate][item=prismatic meditate][item=silverglow meditate] Meditate gives you 30 breath every time and even though it causes a sickness that decreases physical attack, that doesn't effect your HEALER DRAGON AT ALL, because you are attacking with MAGICAL attacks. You also need 2 Discipline stones [item=discipline] Which will make your meditate give you 60 breath most of the time, with only one it's like half the time. When you are level 17 you want 3 scholar stones [item=scholar] but until then you want 3 Acuity fragment in whatever element your dragon is. which will increase your INT by 2 per fragment. [item=earthen acuity fragment][item=diseased acuity fragment][item= zephyr acuity fragment][item=aquatic acuity fragment][item=frozen acuity fragment][item=shining acuity fragment][item=magical acuity fragment][item=natural acuity fragment][item=fiery acuity fragment][item=dark acuity fragment][item=charged acuity fragment] If your dragon is Lightning, Ice or Arcane you want Glass Hybrid Fragment [item=Glass Hybrid Fragment] which gives you 2 intelligence and 2 quickness you can go to here: https://www1.flightrising.com/auction-house/buy/realm/battle?itemname=acuity&battle_subtype=3&perpage=50&collapse=1 To find acuity stones, make sure to get the specific element you need (+2)vs the regular.(+1) In the second row is where your active attacks/abilities go, the very first 2 you want, are Contuse and Aid [item=contuse] [item=aid] Contuse will do damage based on your INT and also decrease the enemies attack by 25%. Aid will heal a dragon based on your INT, There is also a regeneration stone, they do the same thing, one is prettier [item=regeneration][item=Empathetic Regeneration] (make in Baldwin's cauldron) I've tested it, and it works really well at level 25, heals for 1200 over 5 turns, I'll use both now, but I still like aid better as it does a large amount all at once. Also it's based on your INT level, so I don't know how much it does at level 10[/b] at lvl 11 the third slot in the second row opens, but don't put anything there till level 12, at that time, depending on your element you'll want to put one of these there. [b]Fire[/b][item=sear]may burn enemy, increasing physical damage [b]Nature[/b][item=envenom]may poison, causing an additional 1200 damage over 5 turns Arcane[s][item=enfeeble]may amplify, increasing magical damage-useless unless you have more magic users on your team[/s] so instead use Mana Bolt [item=mana bolt] which causes magical Arcane damage Shadow[item=shroud]may blind, decreasing their accuracy Plague[s][item=Contaminate]may apply virus, they get damaged from healing magic-pretty useless if you ask me, cause you can't use your healing magic on them.[/s] so instead use Vile Bolt [item=vile bolt] which causes magical plague damage Wind[item=disorient]may cause berserk, they attack themselves or others, including you still [b]Water[/b][item=drown]may apply slow, enemy speed drastically reduced Light[item=enamor]may apply silence, enemy can't use abilities (except scratch/meditate?) [b]Lightning[/b][item=shock]may cause paralysis, target can't do anything [b]Earth[/b][item=fossilize]may cause petrify, target can't move but def is increased [b]Ice[/b][item=congeal] may apply freeze, enemy can't attack not only will it do elemental damage of that type, but they also will do another effect as stated above. I recommend your healer dragon be one of the [b]BOLD[/b] types above. At level 17 the last slot in the second row will open and you should put Regeneration [item=regeneration] there, so your healer will look like this [item=contuse][item=aid][item=drown][item=regeneration] or something similar So that's it for healer dragons [img]https://i.imgur.com/YVjc9pv.jpg[/img] Nature dragon [img]https://i.imgur.com/0lUrff1.jpg[/img] Wind dragon [img]https://i.imgur.com/IWZj55Z.jpg[/img] Lightning dragon
