Mar 2015 Release Breeding Plans

[Esmeia]

Did some test breeding with my first adults!

 

Found the female Colossus looks really good with Gold!: http://dragcave.net/lineage/gNSoe.

 

Tried out my red Gemstone female with my Silver. Looks really pretty to me, though I get the feeling the blue variant will be the best match: http://dragcave.net/lineage/B9xD2.

 

Paired my male Colossus with a Ribbon Dancer! I quite like the muted vs. bright colors. They also have a good pose match! : http://dragcave.net/lineage/dOOmo. Plus I got a cool code out of them.

I like this combination: m green Gemshard x f River.

[Rowan]

My favourite combination is now Plated Colossus x Stone!

PB gemscale! All three colors in one lineage- I quite like it!

Nice! I like it too!

I can't find anywhere more relevant to post this, but I just recorded the colours of 300 Gemshard hatchies at random from EATW's viewer (I know it repeats some so I should maybe take an AoND sample too to be sure) and they came out at 104/99/97 which is so close to completely even that it's spooky.

 

So yeah, none of the colours are rarer than the others - you can plan with the Gemshards you like and not worry about how hard one colour might be compared to another.

And just found a cute Colossus pairing - Colossus x Pillow.

[Gusearth]

Has anyone tried the Colossi with Brutes? They strike me that they would go well together.

I Just bred this to the AP. I forgot I was full on eggslots...

 

 

Also, New release x New release anyone? They are both sleek eastern dragons, and the colors go well together. *Cuddles the egg*

Brown coppers go well with red gems

(Ignore the marrow)

[angelicdragonpuppy]

OoOOOohhhhhh golly gems don't follow parental color: http://dragcave.net/lineage/4KDDW

 

WELP I thus abandon all plans of lineages with them. I wish those brave souls among you who try it the best of luck, though ^^;

[Lumikkja]

LOOK AT IT

 

I DON'T EVEN CARE IF THE HATCHLING HAS A DIFFERENT COLOR

 

LOOK HOW PERFECT ITS PARENTS ARE

 

and LOOK

 

can you tell I like Spartacus

 

thanks TJ for giving us a dragon that looks good with Heartstealers!

Tried some more things I thought might be pretty.

 

Since catching gems isn't going so well, I think I'll start trying some of these breedings.

 

I tried all gems with all the pyrals even though I don't think all of them look great. =p

 

Blue Gem x Alman

Blue Gem x Pyrope

Blue Gem x Spess

Green Gem x Alman

Green Gem x Pyrope

Green Gem x Spess

Red Gem x Alman

Red Gem x Pyrope

Red Gem x Spess

 

Plated x Hellfire

Frostbite x Plated

Hellfire x Plated

[Tehya Faye]

Oooh, Frostbite and Plated look surprisingly good together.

[TCA]

I like the pyrals with female gems better than with male gems.

[dragongrrl]

I'm still working on collecting what I need to have 4 breeding pairs of the new releases.

 

11/8 Plated Colossi - 3 pairs completed. The rest are untried, but I believe I have a 4th pair. <3

16/24 Gemshards - 6 are eggs. The colors divide out as follows:

....4/8 Blue - 0 pairs completed. Only have 2 adults males so far.

....3/8 Green - 1 pair completed.

....3/8 Red - 0 pairs completed. Only 1 adult male so far.

3/8 Striped Rivers - 1 pair completed.

 

All 2nd gen PB eggs have autoed to the AP, but one Plated pair dropped a great code. I hope it goes to someone who will appreciate it! <3

 

I want to try the Rivers with the Tidals, once I have the four pairs, because that combination really looks good to me.

 

[dustpuppy]

I haven't seen this combination yet, I really like it: f green Gemshard x m Fever Wyvern

[pinkgothic]

Someone posted the gender-swapped version of that in the release thread. I linked to it here (right along with the excessive degree of my admiration for it).

 

Agreed, it's really pretty!

[Sundew]

M Striped River x F Falconiform

 

Yes? No?

 

I love the poses, but the colors could be better. Still pretty nice though, IMO.

[Myra the Sark]

I'm going to be dedicating most of my time to a PB Gemshard lineage, with all of them named after minerals.

Granted, it'll be frustrating trying to get the CBs required with how fast they go...

[Nyka]

I kind of hate that two-headeds can't breed with regular dragons or else this would be happening

 

 

[Avarule]

I don't know about you guys but I quite like how this turned out. Shame that nocturnes can't stay blue 24/7.

[dreamtosleep]

Aha! I have found the thread.

 

A bit late, but does anyone think this is as pretty as I do? I just think their texture is awesome together.

 

EDIT: Upon further examination, Desipis x Colossal has already been suggested. If I had found this thread a bit earlier...

[moxiegraphix]

I think this makes a great stairstep lineage.

 

Brute X Plated Collossus

 

Edit: Forgive me if this has been suggested already. I'm late to the party, as usual.

Sleek, thin gemshard with brutish, large desipis. YUS

[dustpuppy]

I'm pleasantly surprised how well the greens of Plated Colossus and Mistletoe go together.
