I had 2 hatchies die (GMt+1 time) yesterday when Zombies were invisible, but ofc I revived when Zombies were visible, again only desintegrations...

 

so far I've tried at least 10 adults and 5-10 hatchies(I lost track of things by now), not a single zombie. Today I'm killing more adults just I don't know... does it now matter when the dragon died too?

Becuase I'm assuming it never did when zombies could be made only if revived on Halloween but could die anytime up to 2 weeks before Halloween... Did it change maybe and now if the fodder dies when Zombies are invisible my chances are lower than if it died when Zombies are visible?

The hatchling automatically had 2 days added to her timer. Hiding and letting a hatchling die again probably won't make the "Revive" option available a second time. Has anyone experimented with that?

Stats so far:

 

Zombie attempts via kill action:

Success 0/15

Failure 15/15

 

Zombie attempts via fogging:

Success 0/2

Failure 2/2

 

Total Success: 0/17

Total losses: 17/17

Updated stats.

 

 

And I am starting to think the zombie update was kind of useless given the minuscule success. I really hope there will be better chance on halloween because I want to stop trying after one or two cycles. It's a total waste of perfectly good dragons and the losses are far greater than the gain. Really too frustrating and boring. :/

Revival only works once per dragon - period. How it dies each time doesn't change that, sadly.

[kiranat]

I've made 18 attempts so far (all when zombies were visible)

15 gendered hatchlings that ran out of time : 12 disintegrated, 3 successful zombies linked below

2 killed adults: 2 disintegrated

1 killed ungendered hatchling: 1 disintegrated

 

So total success rate is 3/18 = ~17% success when zombies are visible

 

I won't link all the failures, but you can see them on my scroll if you want.

Successful zombies:

Wingless female hatchling

Wingless male hatchling

Seaserpent female hatchling

Updating my attempts since those listed above:

 

24 attempts (mostly hatchlings that were fogged and ran out of time, but a few killed adults as well):

19 dead

3 revivals

2 zombies

 

New zombies:

Female wyvern hatchling

Male eastern hatchling

 

(I'll add them to the spreadsheet now as well).

 

Total stats:

42 attempts (34 dead, 3 revivals, 5 zombies)

5/42=12% zombification rate

 

NOTE: all attempts when zombies visible

[natli]

General stats:

33 hatchie attempts: 2 Zombies

15 adult attempts: 0 Zombies

Zombies were visible ofc.

 

So...2 zombies for 48 attempts. I think I'll take a break till Halloween.

Great to know, thanks!

 

Of the five killed dragons this round:

Two-finned bluna adult: disintegrated

Water adult: success! http://dragcave.net/view/z9xQ4

Magelight pygmy wyvern hatchling: disintegrated

Avatar of destruction hatchling: disintegrated

Undine hatchling: disintegrated

 

1/5 ain't bad when my previous 15+ attempts failed.

[Amazon_warrior]

Ugh, this sucks so much. Four adults and two timed-out hatchies - all disintegrated. :/

[tjenni]

5 new Adult Zombie failures again

[Nakuru]

I got my first success with a hatchling! It died today while fogged and unlike all my previous adult kills, it became a Zombie~

[Sinion Kabe]

5 new Adult Zombie failures again

Dragon link: The success and the failure

 

This is the latest in approximately a dozen tries; one successfully revived as a normal dragon, but all the rest that I managed to kill (my dragons, especially the Blunas, are very good at dodging) all disintegrated.

[HeatherMarie]

Two kills and two disintegration at 1:17am, zombies visible. I would love to complain about the insanely-low success rate since this change, but I have gotten one hatchling and one adult since the change, and only had one ever before then.

And I should probably stop naming them with apologies. It makes me feel worse ;-;

[Amazon_warrior]

Zombies - the new GoNs, except there are lol!millions of sprites to collect. :/

[silver_tiger]

I just tried to kill a couple dragons but they both died and disintegrated. I don't have any more fodder just now so I'll have to hold off until I manage to build up some more!

[VixenDra]

FINALLY I succeeded in getting my 1st Zombie ever...

It's taking loads of dragons really... I got lost how many disintegrates I got so far...

 

It was my 1st attempt today, the other one (adult CB Nocturne, killed just before the attempt) disintegrated.

 

 

Eastern s2 made of CB Striped River, revived at about 5:44am DC time;

my Eastern S2 (added to the spreadsheet)

They don't get their "proper" tombstone until 2 weeks after death.

[silver_tiger]

They don't get their "proper" tombstone until 2 weeks after death.

Ooh! I see, thank you for explaining that! I was a bit concerned that my Volcano zombie had a plain tombstone like it had been killed and not reanimated. That does make sense though (and now that two weeks have passed it is indeed the correct tombstone.)

My last adult attempt for a while. Apparently Water Dragons are very slippery, because this was after all my others dodged for the third day in a row.

[Quinney]

Five attempts at Xeno's, five disintegrations. Three dodged.

 

What a complete farce.

 

I'm done until halloween.
