Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Xenowyrm type: Pyro Gender: Female - Mate: Stone Biome: Desert Elemental affinity: Earth Mana: Creation - Result: Pyro and it was autoabandoned, because I forgot to clear up an egg slot before breeding. oh well! Xenowyrm type: Thalassa Gender: Male - Mate: Black Tea Biome: Desert Elemental affinity: Life Mana: Creation - Result: Thalassa got to keep this one. I have a very vague guess about what the rule might be--might it be opposites? next time I'm going to try to breed a Xenowyrm with a dragon that is it's opposite biome and element...

Posted July 3, 2015 Some Pretty Pairings but they all bred true. http://dragcave.net/lineage/lw1Yi http://dragcave.net/lineage/kPSIh http://dragcave.net/lineage/2NwSo http://dragcave.net/lineage/HAYAC http://dragcave.net/lineage/I01JC Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) Xenowyrm type: Gaia Gender: Female - Mate: Frill Biome: Cave Elemental affinity: Uh... Mana: Still have no idea haha - Result: Gaia! Hehe don't know what I expected but I figured I'd post my results anyway. Just got too excited when I saw an adult, didn't think any of mine grew up until tomorrow morning!

Posted July 3, 2015 Xenowyrm type: Thalassa Gender: Male - Mate: Heartstealing Biome: Volcano Elemental affinity: Neutral Mana: None - Result: Thalassa I find it very funny that the most voted for result in the poll is the 'None, it's random, Birdz is trolling us!' Share this post Link to post

Posted July 3, 2015 Birdz said to disregard that one. There was a bug of some sort in the breeding mechanics at the time, it seems. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2015 Xenowyrm type: Chronos Gender: Male - Mate: Blusang Lindwurm Biome: Coast Elemental affinity: Water Mana: Creation - Result: Chronos They actually look quite nice I was just looking for a blue mate for my Chronos, and this looks lovely. Will breed more tomorrow, I plan on doing some Xeno x Xenos. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2015 99.9% sure the result Xeno egg is decided based on the biome of the non-Xeno mate. Not sure about Xeno/Xeno breeding, but yeah. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) So it looks like the oddballs from Xenowyrms bred with non-Xenowyrms in the spreadsheet are because of the non-Xeno's parent's biome. The result was the Xenowyrm that drops in that parent's biome. Thalassa x Moonstone (Desert) = Mageia (Desert) Magma (Volcano) x Mageia = Pyro (Volcano) Hellfire (Volcano) x Chrono = Pyro (Volcano) White (Alpine) x Chrono = Astrapi (Alpine) White (Coast) x Chrono = Thalassa (Coast) Chrono x Blue Gemshard (Jungle) = Gaia (Jungle) Summer (Forest) x Gaia = Chronos (Forest) Gaia x Mistletoe (Alpine) = Astrapi (Alpine) Grave (Jungle) x Pyro = Gaia (Jungle) Pyro x Desipis (Jungle) = Gaia (Jungle) But I can't explain these ones in the sheet GoN (no biome) x Gaia = Pyro Chrono x Chrono = Gaia ???

Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) 99.9% sure the result Xeno egg is decided based on the biome of the non-Xeno mate. Not sure about Xeno/Xeno breeding, but yeah. Xeno x Xeno seems to be randomized. Kind of like how stripe x stripe make a random color. While it does seem that Xeno eggs that don't follow the Xeno parent ARE influenced by the other parent's biome, that obviously isn't a 100% chance of changing the egg. Either a 1/5 or 1/4 chance that the opposite parent's biome influences a Xeno egg. I'd say the quirk mentioned refers to biome-less dragons which seem to also produce randomly in the odd chance of it not following the Xeno.

Chronos x Chronos = Gaia Maybe this is due to the fact that the Forest and Jungle are kinda more like plant ish, and the little Gaia is bred due to this? Not sure, just a thought. GoN x Gaia = Pyro Perhaps this is because in order to create GoNs, you need a Thunder, an Ice, and a Magma. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) I'd say the quirk mentioned refers to biome-less dragons which seem to also produce randomly in the odd chance of it not following the Xeno. But 7/8 of the offspring of the no biome parents in the sheet follows the Xeno parent. If it was random, we'd see more oddballs. Maybe it follows the Xeno parent, and that GoN x Gaia is another anomaly? So my theory is that breeding a Xeno with a non-Xeno can result in: 1) The Xenowyrm parent's breed 2) The non-Xenowyrm parent's breed 3) The Xenowyrm that drops in the biome of the non-Xenowyrm parent With Xeno x Xeno = random Xeno Xeno x no biome = parent Xeno Edited July 3, 2015 by Tecca Share this post Link to post

"in the odd chance of it not following the Xeno." i.e. that 1/5 or 1/4 chance that I mentioned. eta: So I went snooping to see if the Gaia x GoN= Pyro was an error, but from looking around Jazeki's (original breeder) scroll, it really is there. It is possibly an anomaly, but there's no way to tell without more data. Edited July 3, 2015 by Daydreamer09 Share this post Link to post

Posted July 3, 2015 Two more eggs to report. So far, all my females bred true, only the male bred a Xeno of a different type.

Posted July 3, 2015 You've got to consider that people might not report results they consider boring/unsurprising or repeats of existing results, so our results will probably be skewed somewhat in the direction (numbers-wise) of pairings that produced a Xeno different to the Xeno parent. We can use it to determine what's possible but not how frequently it occurs. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 3, 2015 (edited) We should probably try to see if the Elemental Affinity has any influence on the resulting offspring by breeding more biome-less dragons with Elemental Affinities to Xenodragons of a different element. I've got a few Cave dragons lurking in my scroll I'll try to pair up to help out. Edited July 3, 2015 by Tehya Faye Share this post Link to post

We can use it to determine what's possible but not how frequently it occurs. That's definitely a good point. Personally I'd like to look through some click sites to get an overall estimate. That's pretty much impossible at the moment though. Most breedings are probably going to the ap backlog and there are hardly any 2nd gens to stumble across on click sites. For the time being, this thread and the spreadsheet are the best gauges for frequency, despite the chance of skewed data. It's the only spot to see large enough numbers of breedings and their results. Share this post Link to post
