TOPIC | Gene pairs: which does it better?
1 2 ... 4 5 6 7 8 ... 14 15
@InkedMyths Same! But it's so, so difficult to find that rare combo that would make me want to use, for example, Hypnotic. I only have one dragon I've specially wanted Hypnotic on. It's just easiest to say "it's the weaker of the pair and I don't like it much".

There's a new gene pair in town! I've added Python and Morph.

I prefer Morph. Python is so bold and busy that it's very hard to mix with tertiary genes.

Laced/Edged is here! They seem about equal to me.

I've added the gaoler genes!
I've added the gaoler genes!
oooooooh i vaguely remember this, i gotta do it!!

Bar/Daub: bar! i appreciate how daub can darken but it just doesn't look good to me, but i actually love bar

Cherub/Seraph: both have their uses! i like them both ^^

Clown/Eye Spots: clown, tbh. it can work sometimes but eye spots just... i can't

Crystal/Facet: oof, i think both have their uses as well. i tend to prefer crystal, though, i think?

Falcon/Peregrine: peregrine! i love peregrine. falcon is nice but hard to like for me

Giraffe/Hex: giraffe looks better as a primary pattern than hex as a secondary pattern to me. so, giraffe!

Iridescent/Shimmer: BOTH BOTH BOTH IM WEAK

Jaguar/Rosette: jaguar all the way! i've never really liked rosette

Jupiter/Saturn: honestly these genes are still growing on me, but i think i generally prefer jupiter

Laced/Edged: both are tricky :/ not a huge fan of either sadly, though, very rarely they work. i don't know which i like more... edged does look good with cherub though

Lionfish/Noxtide: noxtide! noxtide! noxtide! (i can appreciate lionfish but i generally do not like it much)

Metallic/Alloy: frankly? neither. once in a while they work but most of the time i just can't like it :/

Mosaic/Breakup: i have to say mosaic on this one. i actually really don't like breakup's mane even if i appreciate the aesthetic

Petals/Butterfly: butterfly!! i love how you can see the big gradients, and the simple splashes of color are better in my opinion

Phantom/Spirit: not really a fan of either atm but i think phantom is better; i don't like trail much and spirit reminds me of colorless trail

Piebald/Paint: oof, that's hard... both have their right uses ^^;

Pinstripe/Trail: PINSTRIPE. i love pinstripe!! except for the belly, but thankfully, belly genes exist! trail i just... do not like the look of, except on skydancers

Poison/Toxin: oof, this is hard. it really depends! though i think i tend to lean more on toxin

Python/Morph: this is hard too! i'd say both, because both work in different ways for different colors

Ripple/Current: hmm... id probably say ripple does better

Savannah/Safari: savannah is a lot more visually interesting than safari

Shaggy/Streak: kinda not super big on either but probably shaggy?

Skink/Spinner: skink!!! skink is the best. spinner just doesn't cut it for me, it doesn't do enough and kinda looks weird most of the time, except on wildclaws

Speckle/Freckle: i love both, but i think speckle does it better!

Starmap/Constellation: you know i gotta say starmap. constellation is nice but starmap just feels really magical and i love the joints looking like constellations

Tapir/Striation: i'm a much bigger fan of striation than tapir, but both have their uses

Tiger/Stripes: tiger! tiger is a cute gene still. stripes i just don't like most of the time

Vipera/Hypnotic: vipera is way better. hypnotic has rare instances of working but vipera is usually safer

Wasp/Bee: bee! wasp is neat in theory but i just don't like the faces

my god there are so many genes now x_x

@Alphazi I can understand why they partially hit a reset button for genes with ancient breeds! Whew.
