Anyway, @Ayelldee you can also check the "type" of a dragon in its encyclopedia entry, which is probably the most reliable way. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 20, 2018 (edited) Question, is it a bug that we can only have two Mistletoe dragons (From 2014) or is just a bug? I remember that the other christmas breeds had their limit lifted. EDIT: Some other breeds, like Hollys are also limited again. And no, wasn't picking up from the ''Holiday page'', but from the abandoned page.

Posted December 20, 2018 You can only have 2 CBs of any of the Christmas and Valentine breeds. You can have as many bred ones as you have space for. Share this post Link to post

I know I've seen some. They still count against the limit even though you're not the one grabbing them from the holiday biome directly. Share this post Link to post

If you were hunting in the AP when you got the message that just means the egg you clicked was CB, I've done that a few times. People do drop CBs to the AP in an attempt to help others. 5 hours ago, Chococat0815 said: Wouldn't that be the Razorcrest, which is a wyvern?

I just assumed they were talking about the one that looks most like a sea serpent. Share this post Link to post

The extra 21 came a couple of weeks ago and I didn't do anything unusual that week. Wait, what's the actual non-glitch max for this week? I'm at 3200 and I thought that was normal but maybe not?

Well, my total when I posted that was 3121, which said I was at 100% -- as I have been every week so far without spending any shards. BUT, since then my total jumped to 3221. Glitch? Christmas bonus of 100 shards? Something happened that added 100 more. Has anyone else suddenly noticed a 100 shard jump in their total?

They look brighter to me with their features standing out more, including comparing the sprites between my scroll and the wiki There are definite differences between the one on the wiki and the ones on my scroll, they must have had a bit of a color update. It must have been a few days ago at least, because I have screenshots from the 16th that are identical to the current. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 21, 2018 @MysticMusician @HeatherMarie Red dragons along with seasonal dragons got sprite updates as part of the cave Birthday Celebration back in May. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 21, 2018 @Dracaena Yes, but it seems that new sprite has been updated recently. The colors are noticeably brighter, highlights are noticeably brighter especially if you zoom in. Share this post Link to post

The colors are noticeably brighter, highlights are noticeably brighter especially if you zoom in. Humm, looking at the wiki their image almost looks muddy. I do remember the scales were distinct with the May update. What I found objectionable was the change in color from the lovely deep red it used to be, the disappearing teeth on default scroll background, and altering the silhouette that didn't play nice with my lineages. I've done my best to ignore the red dragons since the May update so if there has been a subtle tweak I've missed it. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 21, 2018 @Dracaena @HeatherMarie The Red dragon sprite on the wiki is jpeg'd- that is to say, poor quality and not how it is supposed to look. The new sprite has not been altered. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 21, 2018 (edited) Not a huge thing, but I use TJ's scroll stats banner, and my scroll is not hidden - though it will be soon - but I have over 7k dragons, 8 eggs and quite a few hatchies.. My stats show no adults, 6 eggs and6 hatchies. Other banners look normal... Why isn't mine? ETA edited big time. That was the oddest spellcheck oopsie I've seen in a while...

As far as I'm aware, the dcrecords site may be made by TJ, but it's still using the API, which grants no access to hidden scrolls. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 21, 2018 I'm a little confused (and sad) - did it always used to be that temporarily held eggs counted toward egg limits, even though you can only keep one of them? I just bred two pairs in parallel so I could be prepared in case one of them went mono-culture breeding on me, and I lost the entire second clutch (setting me back an entire year, possibly more if it mono-cultures on me next year). Was I just misinformed and the whole clutch has always counted to the egg limits, or has this changed? Share this post Link to post

The non-glitched shard max for this week is 3200 @purplehaze maybe a cache issue? If you didn't spend any and reached your limit every week you should have been at non-glitched 3200 the time you posted Share this post Link to post

Posted December 21, 2018 OK, thank you very much for the information, friends. I thought I remembered people getting over their egg limit with held eggs and then still being able to breed to keep, but I guess what I'm remembering must just be the first part. I guess this is what I get for being misinformed. Share this post Link to post

It is now, but it wasn't when I posted, though my post got bit by my spellcheck, which meant it said something rather odd.. Also, though, if it showed anything, it shouldn't have shown no adults at all! Edited December 21, 2018 by Fuzzbucket Share this post Link to post

I guess this is what I get for being misinformed. Well, it only used to be possible if you bred during lag, and several breeding results were worked on at practically the same time. Even without multi-clutches. (I once got 7 eggs this way when we still had a limit of 4+1, all of them bred during the hourly lag.) It doesn't work any more, though, and hasn't for a while.
