Introductions

Hello, i just recently started playing and i have really been enjoying it. I would love to make some friends and have a pen pal to write and send random gifts to. I would be sending messages typically at least once a day or more. If this sounds like you, send me a message. [emoji=raven size=1] Thanks for such a great gaming experience! <3

[center]Hey there @rubyrat! [emoji=firework size=1]Wishing you a warm welcome to Flight Rising![emoji=firework size=1] Am glad that you are enjoying yourself! Love your lair theme and am curious about your breeding plans: very interesting! Of course you may write to me, but please do not send me any gifts, they make me stressed, haha! ------- ------- ------- Anyways- *slides in to deposit a good [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/2981182#post_2981182] [b]guide[/b][/url] to some of the basics* [emoji=information size=1] This guide is way more comprehensive than what I post below here, but do feel free to ping me when you have questions. [/center] ------ ------ [center]Oh, also I am offering: [emoji=wing size=1][b]Free levelling help for coliseum newbies[/b][emoji=sword and shield size=1] I could help if you train 2 dragons to ~lvl7, but only if you have 2 non-progenitor (progenitor are the 2 dragons you get for free when you start the game & cannot be traded.) adults that you have not yet given battle stats and stones. Send me the dragons through a 1-way [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/crossroads/deliver]crossroads[/url][emoji=trade size=1] and ping me on this topic with a reminder that you did so (using: @Islet). After I respond here, I will accept the crossroads and get your dragons send back trained within an hour. If I don respond quickly, I am prly asleep. XD[/center] ------ ------ [emoji=green vial size=1][b]Do:[/b][emoji=green vial size=1] [LIST] [*][emoji=sun size=1] There are some dailies to be gotten from this website! At "[b]gather items[/b]" and "[b]trading post[/b]" you can get some free stuff each day and in the "[b]fairgrounds[/b]" you can play minigames to make a maximum of 75.000 treasure each day. If you feed dragons daily, you get more gathering turns! [*][emoji=treasure size=1] If you want to make more in-game currency, I suggest looking into training a [emoji=coliseum team size=1] coliseum dragon. You can ask on your own flight's forum topic for dragon-lending services, so people can lend you a higher lvl dragon and so you can use that one in a team to grind levels on your progens or your own dragons. [/LIST] [emoji=red vial size=1][b]Don't:[/b][emoji=red vial size=1] [LIST] [*][emoji=breeding cooldown size=1] Personally I do not breed my progens because I don't like the look of a (messy) offspring list. If you do breed your progens or dear dragons, please [b]name[/b] the offspring something you can look at in the future and not be annoyed. Some people use song lyrics or quotes or themes to name the offspring, which can be really cool! [*][emoji=money bag size=1] Don't buy everything you want from the marketplace: look at the auction house for possible cheaper options! Tbh, some items are more expensive on the auction house, so do compare some of the prices :P [*][emoji=new friend size=1] Don't sell hatchlings for less than 4g (you can get max 5g for a baby fodder) and don't sell adult dragons for less than 5g (you can get max 7g for an adult fodder). (Really pretty lineage + lore dragons in hatcheries can go for ~50g!) You cannot sell your progens, only exalt them. Exalting a dragon means you send it to work for your elemental deity. they essentially become removed from the site and don't belong to any player, though they can still be seen. You can get your exalted progens back at any time and also 1 exalted non-progen dragon per 3 months, but you need to pay treasure for restoring the dragons. [*]Don't go against the FR policies? Idk, I can't think of something right now to put here... [/LIST] [b]To help you on your way, here are some handy information sources:[/b] [emoji=ping size=1] [b]Discord information:[/b] [emoji=comment size=1]https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/2517049#post_2517049 [emoji=left wing size=1] [b]FR overall discord invite:[/b] [emoji=right wing size=1] https://discord.gg/UG8Frxh [emoji=coliseum team size=1] [b]Coliseum:[/b] [emoji=coliseum team size=1] (One thing, do check the comments on the topics for more recent adjustments of builds!) https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/1344211#post_1344211 Some more coliseum builds, ranked by players https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/2851637#post_2851637 https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/2312095#post_2312095 [emoji=paintbrush size=1] [b]Dragon bio coding:[/b] [emoji=paintbrush size=1] https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/1047514 https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/1777871#post_1777871 Also, here is some more information about treasure that might be helpful, haha... ------ ------ ------ The fastest way to get treasure is actually by playing [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/gde/3111261#post_3111261][emoji=glimmer tile size=1] [b]glimmer & gloom on the hard mode[/b] [emoji=gloom tile size=1] [/url] on the fairground games, but fairground profit is [i]limited to 75. 000 treasure max each day[/i]. It definitely stacks up though, so if you have the energy I'd recommend learning how to through the guide linked above and playing some hard more fairground each day ^^ [emoji=treasure size=1] For more profit than that you'd have to: [emoji=treasure size=1] [LIST] [*][emoji=coliseum team size=1] [b]Play some coliseum and sell the drops there on the auction house.[/b] (eggs, runestones and swipp items tend to go for quite a sum!) Personally I think the [b]ghostlight ruins[/b] is quite quick to train in and the items from there are cute in a shadow/arcane way ^^ [*][emoji=cauldron size=1] [b]Melt items you don't need[/b] at [b][url=https://www1.flightrising.com/trading/baldwin]baldwin's bubbling brew[/url][/b] on the trading post and sell those items on the auction house. (the baldwin materials you get from baldwin vary in rarity and price, so check the auction house for that: you can often sell them for gems as well on the auction house!) This is a reliable passive income source, though you cannot melt stacks and have to check in once a while to melt a new item. It does work with 30-min intervals though and is thus compatible with The Pomodoro Technique, which is a very efficient study method! [*][emoji=eliminate size=1] [b]Level cheap fodder dragons in the mire with a lvl 25 mire trainer[/b]! The mire is a high lvl venue for quickest lvl grinding but due to the amount of players levelling fodder there the items are worth a lot less than those in the ghostlight ruins and other high lvl venues. Fodder dragons can be obtained from breeding cheap fodder dragons or can be bought at ~7000 treasure on the Auction house. You can exalt them to your deity at lvl 6-7: lvl 6 is the most efficient profit-wise, but some level dragons to lvl 8 for more profit/dragon. This will give you treasure (see how much [url=https://flightrising.fandom.com/wiki/Exalting_Dragons]on the Flight rising Wiki[/url])! This works best if you change the coliseum settings in the coliseum to correspond to the WASD(+QE) keys and keep the battlestone order similar for your fighter dragons: Over time coli can be more automated and you can then play coliseum while watching a series in the evening, or even while reading papers or a book on the side. (If you are reading papers I do recommend having multiple food stacks in your hoard already, as the focus will lead to many defeats in the coliseum and thus more need to feed your fighter!) [*][emoji=gold crown size=1] If there is a dominance battle going on that week, (A good pinglist is the one linked [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/frd/3262584/1#post_54783816]here[/url]) you could check if they have an[b] OOFR (out-of-flight-raffle) or a public buy[/b]: The flight will buy dragons from you then and especially outside of holidays they may pay more (treasure OR gems!) than the price you get for exalting dragons! [*][emoji=dna size=1] I don't do this due to keeping a no-breeding-lair, but [b]you could make a lot of profit with breeding too[/b], but it requires consistent passive play (I have seen people keep spreadsheets for a very streamlined process or just wing it but idk how to actually put it into practice) and you'll also have to come up with a fun/unique/desirable hatchery theme: [LIST] [*]If you have an open nest in your nesting grounds, get a pair of breedable dragons from the auction house (check their compatibility [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/scrying]here[/url]) and breed them. You do have to check in 1x each day to incubate the nest! [*]6 days later you can sell their hatchlings 5kt a piece, or train and exalt hatchlings for more profit. [*]If you do this a few weeks, you can expand your nesting grounds and dragon lair a bit with the money and then rotate breeding pairs. [*]When you have enough funds after a few months, you could get prettier and unique breeding pairs that you can write lore for (making your dragon lineage interesting and compatible with certain clan aesthetics that are popular) and set up a hatchery where you could sell your hatchlings for more treasure or gems. [/LIST] [*][emoji=familiar heart size=1] [b]Familiar bonding nets you 15-50 treasure per familiar[/b] (I think, not 100% sure on that) and bonding for 3 months or so on certain familiars might get you small rewards. One familiar isn't too profitable, but if you bond hundreds consistently, the amount stacks up! Familiars can be obtained through the coliseum, gathering, achievement chops and the [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/raf]giveaway forums[/url], and for rare ones you might browse the auction house. [*][emoji=net size=1] [b]Gathering could also be profitable[/b], but I'm not too clear on how since I mostly just let it all sit in my hoard XD Some rare/swpp/baldwin items from gathering can be sold for a neat amount! Tbh, not 100% clear on which ones, but the most rare items or items needed for desirable genes and swipp are most profitable!
