Posted October 21, 2016 You hatch the hatchling and then you have to fog and wait for it to die in the fog. It can still gender in the fog if it has enough views however. Thank you!!! Need to get all the sprites this year ^-^ Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2016 Managed to kill Test of Bravery and three AP hatchies a few days ago. Hopefully at least one of them zombifies Share this post Link to post
Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) Congrats, Zeditha! Since this is the zombie advice thread, here's some advice: Get your missing hatchie zombie fodder now, they need to hatch on the 24th or earlier, or they won't starve before Halloween! That means: Without incubate, today is the last day to get zombie fodder from the cave or from breeding. With incubate, tomorrow is the last day. I have at least one male and female hatchie of each type fogged and dying, or dead already. Now I'm going for s1 hatchies. Here's what I do to get s1 zombies: I catch eggs and fog them until they're at 2 days or less time left (because they need fewer views to hatch if the timer is lower). Then I put them in a lot of ER's, and fog them as soon as they hatch. That worked for me last year, they usually end up with 100-200 UV's that way. Right now, I have one hatchie with 149 UV's and 3d 17h that hasn't gendered yet. Edited to add stuff. Edited October 21, 2016 by Ha-Ki Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) Impressive! But I noticed you named all your dead hatchies which brings up a question. Does anyone know if the naming of zombies will be the same as previous years? Meaning, if your hatchling/adult disintegrates and it is named, that the name will remain attached to your disintegrated hatchling/adult and you can't use it again? I'm not talking about successful zombies, because their names can be changed. I mean unsuccessful attempts which ends up in 'deceased' dragons. I learned the hard way in previous years and now before I kill/resurrect a hatchling/adult, I always remove the name. Edited October 25, 2016 by whitestar Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2016 As i know it is still the case that the name will stick with the disintegrated critter. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2016 Sunsongs finally got changed to their correct type! Woo! Good luck to everyone getting the new sprites as well as the 'old' ones. Share this post Link to post

Posted October 25, 2016 (edited) So are the odds increased now? Can I kill off my messy xenowyrms right now or should I wait until Halloween night? Edited October 25, 2016 by blockEdragon Share this post Link to post

Can I kill off my messy xenowyrms now or should I wait until Halloween night? https://forums.dragcave.net/index.php?showt...dpost&p=9302481 There's already four tiers of success chance (day time, night time, 31st of month, Halloween), which match the four states of zombie visibility. You can try now if you want. You will have the most chance of success on Halloween. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2016 *sighs* I must have rotten luck in getting any type of Zombie. I keep killing my dragons only for them to die Share this post Link to post

It means you can try to revive them in order to try and get a zombie. (Excuse me if that's what you're doing, but if you're missing a step, that is important to know!) Share this post Link to post

I've been able to use the same name more than once, if it disintigrates the first time I use the name before...in fact, some of these names I'm using this year are using names I've used before on disintegrated zombie attempts.

Posted October 25, 2016 Holy moly, I love the Drake sprites. I need an army of them so badly! Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 I got 0 this year. Well, I guess it makes sense. I joined in 2011 and it took me until 2014 to get my first zombie. See you in 2019, I guess. *incredibly bitter* Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 My first Zombie attempt succeeded. http://dragcave.net/lineage/hspLF My three hatchlings died, though. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 I would have figured that the disease that makes the dragons sleep all the time would at least make it easy to kill infected dragons, guess not. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 31, 2016 (edited) All right, I have a question -- What on earth does this zombie come from? There's an image of it in this spreadsheet, but there seems to be inconclusive evidence, and it does not appear on the Dragcave wiki. I haven't seen a single one in person on the site.

Posted October 31, 2016 Gah. Last batch of fodder: 2 dodges, 3 disintegrates. Oh well. I have my Wyrm zombie at least. Share this post Link to post
Posted November 1, 2016 *Sigh* One disintegrated, and the other revived. Question. Is it possible to try again some other time with a dragon who is revived? I will always be amazed by the people who get a zombie on the first try. I've been trying for years, and I've never succeeded. Share this post Link to post

One revive action ever, I managed to get a zombie this Samhain Eve, but I will mention that *wasn't* my first attempt. Share this post Link to post
