TOPIC | Advice for breeding a new color XXX?
1 2
Hey guys! I'm a June registrant but I've been playing this game nonstop since I started and I really think I'm getting the hang of things!

I was wondering, has anybody bred an XXX before (using dragons that aren't also XXX or even XXY etc)? I want to try for one of the new colors, but obviously since it's only 6 days old at this point it's gonna take me awhile.

Thanks!

@Tchime Breed dragons that have a very close colour range to maximize your possibility of getting one.

Ie: if you wanted a triple cornflower dragon, you would breed a triple splash and a sky . See this visual for where colours sit on the wheel.

I would also suggest using two different breeds of dragons so that you have a chance of getting 5 eggs.

I think those are just about the only things you can do right now. Some triples have been hatched, but they are very expensive!

@chespin Hey thanks! That's great advice! c: I'm actually trying for a triple Peridot. I have these cuties here that I just grabbed off the AH: [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=24288540] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/242886/24288540_350.png[/img][/url] Peridot | Fern | Honeydew [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=24575945] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/245760/24575945_350.png[/img] [/url] Peridot | Chartreuse | Spring Primary: 100% Secondary: 12.5% Tertiary: 25% ... which gives me about a 3% chance for the combo I'm looking for. Do you think that I'm on the right track here? xD

@Tchime ppbbbbtttt those are both really pretty. I tried to hatch a triple peridot myself (and got a one off triple radioactive instead otl).

It will get easier to breed triples as time goes on so if the chances seem very low, don't get discouraged :D

I got curious and looked it up... there are currently a grand total of two triple peridot dragons

@chespin

Oh dang. I'm not really a huge fan of radioactive though I saw a lot of people looking for it?
Yeah! I just looked it up too and one of them is up for auction at 8000g. Nope nope nope lol I'll just try to breed my own

The breeding cooldown just sucks though. Considering my female is a baby and a rarer breed (?), she can't breed for like a thousand more years

@Tchime If you want I can keep an eye out for either a closer match or a more common breed so that you can breed them quicker :D

@chespin

That would be so helpful! Thank you very much!! c:
I should put it in my forum signature... That'd be helpful. I'll have to keep an eye on the AH too.

@Tchime if it helps, i found this pair of dragons, if you wanna have two pairs going at once!

@Tchime Keep at it, and don't give up. I've bred a triple several times now, including one new color triple a few days ago. While it wasn't the color I was originally after, it did sell nicely when I put it up. But narrow ranges do help, though I've also gotten a couple from wider range breedings, through a bit of luck, I guess? And as it was said, the more new babies born, the more chances to find some in a usable range to narrow your chances down.

I'm also trying for a triple, with as narrow a range as possible at the moment, though stuck in the early stages of long cooldowns as well. :)

@multiplicity

hey thanks so much!! that is so helpful! :D i'll definitely do that!! just gotta come up with 20k more

@QyetLady

hey that's really awesome! I haven't been around long enough to surpass most breeding cooldowns so it's the waiting game for now I suppose, but thank you for your advice! glad to hear from someone who has some experience trying to do this precise thing i'm trying to do haha c:
