Quests & Challenges

This challenge is loosely based on a Legacy of War challenge, except, uh, there's no war. Just Legacy. The goal: Take a line of Fathoms from triple-basic to triple-gem genes, breeding ONLY with dragons already in my lair. The methods: -only Fathom dragons may be chosen as heirs. --with that in mind, breed only with other Uncommon, Limited or Rare breeds. Common should be used only if no more suitable mates can be found. -for highest chance of success, only upgrade by one gene rarity at a time. The potential outcomes: -if a nest results in NO Fathom dragons, the heir should be nested again until success. -if a nest hatches ONE Fathom, it is automatically the heir, whether or not there is a gene upgrade. -if a nest hatches TWO OR MORE Fathoms, whichever hatchling has more gene upgrades is the heir. If there is a tie, take it to the Coliseum and whoever lasts the longest becomes the heir.

Darkwillow and Vadik have 3 eggs cooking! Yes, I've already broken my "no common breeds unless necessary" rule because all my other potential mates are in my hibden and I didn't feel like shuffling anybody around [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/static/nests/10/3.png[/img]

Well, the first nest had no Fathoms, but we did get some very pretty babies. If anyone wants one of these cuties for free, let me know :) [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/95922711][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/959228/95922711_350.png[/img][/url] [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/95922712][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/959228/95922712_350.png[/img][/url] *faceted eyes!* [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/95922713][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/959228/95922713_350.png[/img][/url]

I've decided to run two lineages side by side, for more of a challenge. Our next nest from Chia and VashtaNerada has 4 eggs: [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/static/nests/10/4.png[/img]

Chia and VashtaNerada's 4 eggs hatched! We have ALL Fathoms, THREE of which have two upgrades! That means we'll have to wait and have them battle it out once they're grown :D [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/96042362][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/960424/96042362_350.png[/img][/url] Name: Zephon Breed: Fathom (U) Primary: Tiger (C) Secondary: Basic (P) Tertiary: Underbelly (C) Upgrades: 2 [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/96042363][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/960424/96042363_350.png[/img][/url] Name: Aura Breed: Fathom (U) Primary: Tiger (C) Secondary: Stripes (C) Tertiary: Basic (P) Upgrades: 2 [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/96042364][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/960424/96042364_350.png[/img][/url] Name: South Breed: Fathom (U) Primary: Tiger (C) Secondary: Basic (P) Tertiary: Underbelly (C) Upgrades: 2 [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/96042365][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/960424/96042365_350.png[/img][/url] Name: Farain Breed: Fathom (U) Primary: Basic (P) Secondary: Basic (P) Tertiary: Basic (P) Upgrades: 0 Farain is up for grabs for anyone who wants her, as well as the three Pearlcatchers from the last nest :)

In the Woodland Path, South stood up the longest against a barrage from a Coral Basilisk and a Trumpet Porcupine, so she is the heir! [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/96042364][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/960424/96042364_350.png[/img][/url] Name: South Breed: Fathom (U) Primary: Tiger (C) Secondary: Basic (P) Tertiary: Underbelly (C) Upgrades: 2 Her mate: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/76604282][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/766043/76604282_350.png[/img][/url] Name: Phobos Breed: Snapper (C) Primary: Giraffe (U) Secondary: Safari (C) Tertiary: Ringlets (U) Upgrades: all genes, but breed is common.

South and Phobos have two eggs in their nest. With that number, I don't have the HIGHEST expectation that we'll get any fathoms, but I suppose anything is possible. [img]https://www1.flightrising.com/static/nests/10/2.png[/img]

To hedge my bets, I'm also going to breed South's brother, with slightly higher likelihood of getting Fathoms.

Good news! South and Phobos's hatchlings were BOTH fathoms!

But with one upgrade apiece, I'll search through my lair for available mates. Potential mates for Funky: Annus, Hyppolyta, Seeker Potential mates for Shine: Spear

Zephon and Mailu's nest had two Obelisks and one Fathom: [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dragon/96713958][img]https://www1.flightrising.com/rendern/350/967140/96713958_350.png[/img][/url] Name: Maddy Breed: Fathom (U) Primary: Tiger (C) Secondary: Basic (P) Tertiary: Underbelly (C) Upgrades: 0 There are no 100% ideal mates for her, but we could use Nenya (good upgrades but a Limited primary), Theo (good upgrades but a Rare primary) or Paladin (good upgrades for secondary and tertiary but same level primary).
