Posted September 26, 2015 I should have my first adults in 9 - 10 hours. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) I have 3 silver lunar adults that grew up last night. I only have them because I used earthquake to hatch them early. WOW - you're so much braver than I am about that now. I only used that once on the Undines - and had NO deaths - lucked out big time. Way to go, Ruby!. ETA: My first adult should appear around 5 hours from now. Edited September 26, 2015 by oddsoxdi Share this post Link to post

ETA: My first adult should appear around 5 hours from now. Thanks. I just got lucky and ended up with some hatchlings and not all just dead eggs. Undines were also the last time I used EQ before this time. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 I must wait another 12 hours until the first of my silvers grow up. If I remember correctly, the golds are supposed to start dropping again on the 29th.... I think. In between now and then I must breed 1 more silver egg, just one more, and I'll have my core set of Lunar goals accomplished. Yay! Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 Inubated some of my Lunar eggs and now I have more pretty hatchies I also caught a few more, plus some CB Autumns in the mix Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 Welp I have one perf Alpine pair and one perf Volcano, ended up with two males from Desert. Good enough for me though, even this relative balance was in my favour . Now to get unlocked.... Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 I have my two, one bred and CB. Both hatched already. Share this post Link to post

Posted September 26, 2015 As long as this thread isn't closed, I'll be watching for eggs and phase changes! (and even after that with the DC Moon Watch and Lunar Herald Theories Thread.) Anyone willing to help out when the clock strikes 8 PM? The moon phases should change again. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 Does anyone know when the Encyclopedia will have the new breeds? Share this post Link to post
Posted September 26, 2015 My first batch of silvers are going to grow in 3 hours. This was the best release that I ever saw in DC, gorgeous dragons, smoooth drops, easy to collect. I have almost 100 heralds in total now. I'm a little sad that is going to end. Thank you to all involved for this great release, including the great members who deciphered the moon phases and kept the information updated. Share this post Link to post
Posted September 27, 2015 PHASE CHANGE! Both Aurax and Cirion are WANING GIBBOUS! *to be confirmed* Eggs are still silver. We now have ALL THE LUNAR COLORS!!!! - Ladylyzar has given us the Silver Lunar Herald Avatar, and thus, all the Lunar Herald Avatars are available! Remember to upload them separately if you use one of them! - Millie-Azure has made a New Valkemare Lunar Calender, based on current data, that predicts the Lunar Egg Herald results all the way to 2020! - Check the DC Moon Watch and Lunar Herald Theories Thread for the current theory on how the Lunar Egg Colors and Moon Phases work! So far, we have been correct! - State your breeding plans and funny names for the Lunar Heralds in the Lunar Herald Breeding and Naming Thread! - Please vote for your favorite Lunar Herald color on the What's Your Favourite Lunar Herald?, Vote away! Thread! - Please tell me if I missed anything! A CURRENT SUMMARY OF WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE MOON AND EGGS: (For everybody who was late to the party and/or wants updates) ------- - We have Beautiful pseudo-six-winged Lunar Heralds, the former prize breed, moon-loving dragons! - PHASE CHANGE!! Currently, Aurax (Gold Moon) and Cirion (Blue Moon) are now both in the WaNing Gibbous phase. - Everyone is still catching Silver eggs in the Cave! No color change!** - We have Adult dragons, and we are breeding Silver Lunar eggs!! No color change!** - The eggs are found in the Alpine, Desert, and Volcano Biomes. (Think places where the sky is easily seen.) - All of the Lunar Herald colors (Gold, Bronze, Blue/Indigo, and Silver) have dropped in the Cave! And all the Lunar Herald colors, (Bronze, Blue/Indigo, Gold, and Silver) have been bred. ** = to be confirmed - Info on the current moon phase can be accessed from the Time page, which you can get to by clicking the clock in the top right hand corner of the new Standard DC skin, by going to the Help page and clicking Time Reference link, by going to the first page in this thread and clicking the link in the banner, OR by clicking the 3 above links embedded in this post. - As of Sept 21, 2015, 9:00PM, the Silver Lunars began flooding!! The flood has dissipated now. - No one had been tracking the moons until now, so we have no idea how quickly they change. So, we cannot accurately predict what eggs will come when. - That means no one knows how to get the other egg colors until the other moon phases come and the lunar cycle completes itself. - IMPORTANT: All data before 09/03/13, 1:56 PM was incorrect as the time page was showing Aurax's phase for BOTH moons. TJ has provided a corrected cycle in his post. - This does NOT affect the information gathered on the eggs, just the moon phases the eggs were caught/bred under. - The cycle has progressed, and so far we know: (Cycle Post taken and modified from TJ's post) --- Based on current data, it seems that Cirion's phases change faster than Aurax's. ----- Aurax takes 8 days to move from WaNing Crescent to New Moon, 7 days to move from WaXing Crescent to WaXing Gibbous, and 8 days to move from WaXing Gibbous to Full moon. ----- Cirion takes 4 days to move from WaXing Gibbous to Full Moon, 3 days to move from WaNing Gibbous to WaNing Crescent, 4 days to move from WaNing Crescent to New Moon, and 3 days to move from WaXing Crescent to WaXing Gibbous. ----- Aurax's New Moon and Full Moon phases are 24 hours long. ----- Cirion's Full Moon and New Moon phases are confirmed to be 24 hours long. ----- Cirion and Aurax both skip the First Quarter and Last Quarter Phases. ----- !!! Cirion's cycle is completely confirmed! ----- !!! Aurax's cycle is almost completely confirmed! Aug 29, 2015 @ 12:00 AM EST/DragonCave (DC) to Sep 01, 2015 @ 7:59 PM EST/DC.

Sep 26, 2015 starting 8:00 PM EST/DC Aurax: Waning Gibbous Cirion: Waning Gibbous CB Lunar eggs are Silver***, and Bred Lunar eggs are Silver***. ***=to be confirmed [Edited by Shokomon] - Note: The Moon Phases TJ posted were Phases of the moon at 12:00 AM EST of their respective date. That is why the post doesn't match up with the color change. - We can assume that on Sept 1, 2015, the phases changed at 8:00 PM EST/DC, where Aurax shifted Waning Gibbous to Waning Cresent, and Cirion from Waning Cresent to New Moon. - There are many theories on how the eggs will come and when, including, but not limited to: 1) Certain eggs being available during different phases of the moons in general, under the assumption that the moons are in synch, and will share the same moon phases. 2) Certain eggs being avaliable relative to the different phases of each moon (assuming the moons are NOT in synch) and overlap between both moons' phases. 3) One moon's phases controlling cave-born colors and the other moon's phases controlling bred colors. 4) Certain Lunar eggs colors are linked to Aurax, and the other colors are linked to Cirion. 5) Gold is the CB color, and the others could be Bred colors. 6) The Lunar egg colors are based on what percentage of the moons are illuminated. If one moon is greater than 50% illuminated (gibbous to full), while the other moon is less than 50% illuminated (crescent to new), then Lunar eggs are the color of the dominant moon. If both moons are equal in illumination, other colors show up. 7) The Lunar Herald egg colors will come in a linear fashion (aka all the colors in a row.) For example, Gold --> Bronze --> Blue --> Silver --> Gold --> Repeat. 8) The Lunar Herald eggs colors will NOT come in a linear fashion, and there are possible periods where a color or two do not show up for extended periods of time, despite the other colors showing up. For example, Gold --> Bronze --> Blue --> Bronze --> Gold --> Silver --> Bronze --> Continue. - Exactly which moon phase produces what eggs, which moon controls breeding and caveborn colors, and which colors are associated with which moon are up for debate. - The Lunar Heralds' description has given some support to Theories 1, 2, and 6. - The newest phase change, recent egg colors, and TJ's correctional post seems to support Theory 2, 6, and 8. - There are also theories about the DC lunar cycle itself, including, but not limited to: 1) The Moons are in synch and share phases. 2) The Moons are NOT in synch, and occasionally have overlapping phases. 3) The DC Lunar cycle is equivalent to Earth's Lunar cycle, and the current phase will change in at most a week. 4) The DC Lunar cycles are NOT equivalent to Earth's Lunar cycle, and the current phases may last longer or shorter than a week.- And there more theories on the size of the moons, their relative speeds, their distance from Valkemare, and the list goes on. - As of the most recent phase change and TJ's correctional post, the Valkemare's moon phases are not in synch͵ supporting Theory 2. - As of the most recent phase change and TJ's correctional post, the Valkemare's moon phases are not in alignment with Earth's, supporting Theory 4. - LadyLyzar will tells us more about the dragons, once we start getting adults. - TJ stated that the orbits of Valkemare's moons are close to circular, and the centre of mass would be close to the planet as it is much larger in size. --- (Sorry for the confusion here! I completely misinterpreted what TJ posted. Thank you pinkgothic for making a much more accurate summary statement.) - LadyLyzar seems to hint that the Lunar Heralds may have been initially intended to be prize dragons, and later states that they were made at the same time as the Shimmers. - LadyLyzar confirms that the 2nd and 3rd set of wings are in fact illusions. Only the top ones are real and that it is not motion illusion. - LadyLyzar has given us information on the Adults! - LadyLyzar is giving us a pretty Gold Lunar Herald avatar to match her own avatar. She'll give us the Bronze avatar once we start getting adults. --- She has given us the Bronze Herald Avatar! And now the Indigo Lunar Herald Avatar! And lastly the Silver Lunar Herald Avatar! Thus, all the Lunar Herald Avatars are available! Remember to upload them separately if you use one of them! - LadyLyzar states that Lunar Heralds do indeed have metallic scales, but she didn't intend for them to be classified as "metallic dragons" like Golds and Silvers. As they were originally intended to be prizes, she wanted to make them shiny and pretty. - LadyLyzar does not call the "blue" Lunar eggs "Indigos;" She just states that the "blues" are indigo in color as indigo is her favorite color, which makes sense as the "blue" lunar was meant to be her Alt. She later has reaffirmed this, stating that there is no official name for the "blue" Lunars and that they really are just indigo in color as they were to be her alt were these dragons to be chosen as prize dragons. -LadyLyzar states that the element for the Lunar Heralds had not been planned out, and that she would put them as "Light" element. - LadyLyzar states that the Lunar Heralds were retooled after the Shimmers were chosen for prizes, and while the moon phases work a little different than she expected, it's not complicated, and we will figure it out eventually. She won't tell us anything about the mechanic though. - The description for the Lunar Heralds has been updated from this: Lunar Heralds are deeply attuned to the two moons of Valkemare, Aurax and Cirion. Strictly nocturnal, they draw energy from moonlight and will only hunt when the moons have waned. When breeding, the amount of moonlight the parents receive from each moon will determine the color of the egg produced. - To this: Lunar Heralds are deeply attuned to the two moons of Valkemare, Aurax and Cirion. Strictly nocturnal, they draw energy from moonlight and will only hunt when the moons have waned. When breeding, the amount of moonlight the parents receive from each moon will determine the color of the egg produced. When a Lunar Herald is struck by direct moonlight, an illusion of multiple wings may appear. Witnessing a Lunar Herald’s illusory wings is commonly believed to be a sign of good fortune.

Only the top ones are real and that it is not motion illusion. - LadyLyzar has given us information on the Adults! - LadyLyzar is giving us a pretty Gold Lunar Herald avatar to match her own avatar. She'll give us the Bronze avatar once we start getting adults. --- She has given us the Bronze Herald Avatar! And now the Indigo Lunar Herald Avatar! And lastly the Silver Lunar Herald Avatar! Thus, all the Lunar Herald Avatars are available! Remember to upload them separately if you use one of them! - LadyLyzar states that Lunar Heralds do indeed have metallic scales, but she didn't intend for them to be classified as "metallic dragons" like Golds and Silvers. As they were originally intended to be prizes, she wanted to make them shiny and pretty. - LadyLyzar does not call the "blue" Lunar eggs "Indigos;" She just states that the "blues" are indigo in color as indigo is her favorite color, which makes sense as the "blue" lunar was meant to be her Alt. She later has reaffirmed this, stating that there is no official name for the "blue" Lunars and that they really are just indigo in color as they were to be her alt were these dragons to be chosen as prize dragons. -LadyLyzar states that the element for the Lunar Heralds had not been planned out, and that she would put them as "Light" element. - LadyLyzar states that the Lunar Heralds were retooled after the Shimmers were chosen for prizes, and while the moon phases work a little different than she expected, it's not complicated, and we will figure it out eventually. She won't tell us anything about the mechanic though. - The description for the Lunar Heralds has been updated from this: Lunar Heralds are deeply attuned to the two moons of Valkemare, Aurax and Cirion. Strictly nocturnal, they draw energy from moonlight and will only hunt when the moons have waned. When breeding, the amount of moonlight the parents receive from each moon will determine the color of the egg produced. - To this: Lunar Heralds are deeply attuned to the two moons of Valkemare, Aurax and Cirion. Strictly nocturnal, they draw energy from moonlight and will only hunt when the moons have waned. When breeding, the amount of moonlight the parents receive from each moon will determine the color of the egg produced. When a Lunar Herald is struck by direct moonlight, an illusion of multiple wings may appear. Witnessing a Lunar Herald’s illusory wings is commonly believed to be a sign of good fortune.
