TOPIC | Ancient Breeds: Aether Dragons
This probably won't be seen, but I am so angry with Flight Rising for allowing people to buy up the breed change scrolls, and then resell them for extortionate rates. I'm sick of waiting up to an entire year for new dragon breeds ro slowly trickle into the public, because people just can't wait to rip off everyone else. This should be prevented in some way and it's just not.

[/quote] The marketplace items are rerolling sooner or later, but during the last 3 days alone I've seen Aether scrolls available most of the time. It's certainly not impossible to get them, even if you're not online much. Worked the same way with Undertides. Even if you didn't got it right away because you couldn't afford, you can wait out the hype and overpriced auctions and get it later. These scrolls are accessible, but it doesn't mean they're super easy to get, and they shouldn't. We would end up with half of dragon's population being turned into Aethers, making them not so desirable, and practically resetting their genes rarity. It's part of the game, we're here for that.

I feel like, if for no other breeds, we should be able to use numerals in our Aether dragons' names! If canonically one is named xXxDarkStarxXx, I'd love to be able to use one of the ~edgy~ screen names I had in the early 00s (replacing the letter O with 0, A with 4, etc)!

How big are Aether Dragons? I've been very curious about the sizes of the enw dragons (obelisks, abbies, Underrides, Aether) compared to the originals.

[quote name="FuzzyMaro" date="2023-03-28 09:03:25" ] I absolutely love their design, they are amaziiingggg!!! I don't want to sound like im complaining, im just wondering, why only acient species appear recently? [/quote] This is because ancients can't wear apparel like modern breeds do, thus having an [i]EXTREMELY[/i] lower amount of work required to create them. There's a lot of apparel in the game now and that number's always getting higher, and each piece of apparel needs unique artwork for each breed in both poses. Sadly this means new modern breeds have to be more of a once-every-couple-of-years-maybe occurrence, otherwise the artists would be very overworked.
