Flight Rising Discussion

henlo yes please give me your statements i need to know i'm not alone. i'll start:

i have a project going for a flint/strawberry/sanguine imp. they have the right prim/tert but only one's an imperial, and the odds of getting both an imperial and strawberry secondary are 8% so I was kindaaa,,, [vibrates intensely] waiting for them to be nestable??

and, one of the two parents finally got out of the limbo of initial breeding cd, so i was super excited because IMMINENTLY COMPLETE PROJECT!!!!! and i nested them.

in my own (Wind) nest.

The project dragon has Plague/Button eyes.


Please comiserate with me :'D

R.I.P on your month wait to breed them again [emoji=coatl sad size=1] especially with the skewed breed chances... as for me, i have multiple different breeding projects going right now; two of them have such small ranges that you'd think i would've gotten the correct dragon by now. LOL no :) nightmare. and then we don't even talk about my imp project pair. i've been breeding them for [i][b]NEARLY TWO YEARS[/b][/i] for the dragon i need. and they refuse to throw me the correct colors. i am in Hell and there is no escape.

If you don't want to rebreed, you can always try and make do! I did that myself (wanted plague, nested in my own (at the time ice)) [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/88315280][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/883153/88315280_350.png[/img][/url]

oomfies my lead/fog/cyan project has been going on for almost 2 years now

it'd be a little expensive but you could breedchange the father into a coatl or wc to give yourself a higher chance at imp offspring instead of 50/50 you currently have with noct/imp. it just would also put the cooldown timer higher. you are def not alone on getting too excited to nest...

I decided, in 2016-ish, that it'd be fun to do one of those challenges where you try to breed gem genes onto a project dragon, starting from trip-Basic (and going through treasure genes, thankfully).

I've been trying for the primary since 2019.

I had written down in my notes that I needed a Shadow/Gloom/Blood dragon, so I bought a ton of dragons near that range to begin breeding. I managed to breed most of them once or twice before I took a second look at my notes and realized my notes actually said:

Shadow (as in eyes)
Gloom
Blood
Blood

Had to throw the whole gang out and start over, so that was 2ish months wasted. xD

I was doing a breeding project for a dragon with Fern/Obsidian/Shamrock and I was at it for a few months, nowhere near as long as some people, and then I fell off with FR and only checked in every once in a while. Completely forgot about the project so when the Dusthides came out and I came back again, I exhaled some of the rejects without naming them… the project was for a fan dragon and I had been naming all the rejects things to do with him

I definetly could’ve unexalted them but I honestly wasn’t even in the fandom anymore and just couldn’t

There's a project of mine for which I bought many dragons to make pairs of. Like 30 of them. When I started buying those pairs I was already working on another big project so I just put all of them in my den as to not have too many projects at once, bought more dragons over time, and never checked just how far from the goal their colors were... Well, if I had done that right after each purchase, maybe I would have realized earlier that I had not one, but two dragons that were the right colors! And the right breed (Imperial!) And with the right eye color (Light!)

So yeah, lots of money and den space wasted on dragons that I won't be needing. It's not even a question of "I was looking for the right genes too" because when discovering I had the right color combo all along, I checked and had exactly three dragons that each had one (gem) gene I needed.

And it doesn't stop there. As a way to remake a bit of the money spent on the thirty-ish dragons -because of course I didn't keep track of their price- I decided to breed some of those dragons randomly to, you know, create fodders. Well, a Skydancer x Imperial pair gave me an Imperial with the right colors. Because of course they would. And another pair gave me a one-off with Glimmer -which my project needs-, so now I've made those two into a pair and hopefully when I send them to a light nest they'll give me a kid with Glimmer so I can at least save money on one of the three genes... I could just take the L and regen one of the dragons I purchased and call it a day, but also... at least I can still call it a breeding project and not just a regen project... :')

needed to get twin white/lead/black skydancers, got the first one relatively easily but took MONTHS to get the second. my fault for wanting them to match in both colors and gender (this was pre-silhouette scroll, which saved my life with two other projects that kept giving me right colors wrong gender)
