Posted May 24, 2020 Hi guys, glad to see you are all enjoying the dragons! The Jesters were a fun design I came up with by trying to combine the Bauta's 'mask' aesthetic with the black and white color scheme of the Blancblacks, around the same time we decided to do a care package theme, so they fit right in as a representative for finding ways to occupy your mind and relieve stress via consuming entertainment. Wishing you all the best!! Share this post Link to post

Yeah, I LOVE glitches. Not. But in the end I love their sprites. Pretty new dragons. ❤️ Edited May 24, 2020 by Seriva Senkalora Share this post Link to post

This is my third MS birthday--first were Harry Potter houses, last year was elements or something I didn't recognize, but haven't seen a theme this year. Wonder if any of the others can be tied to books? Last years were the Infinity Stones from Avengers Share this post Link to post

That would explain why on day one we had one wave of entirely blue, then one of entirely (or mostly, and we just missed some blues) red, and then, when the window for "incubated and hatched as soon as possible" was over, they started mixing, because people put their eggs in hatcheries unincubated or with less than 4d0h left, leading to them hatching with different intervals between time caught and time hatched (not the exact 48 hours of the first ones). Edit: Ah, wait, no. You said you saw the eggs both had 3d21 left, and then they hatched about the same time, but produced different colours ? Then... I'm stumped. For the time being. I tested part of your theory and it worked for me... somehow... might have been random luck... 4 blue spotted eggs caught on the 21st between 7-9pm DC time. 2 were ER hatched after 00:10 and hatched blue before 08:00 on the 24th. 2 were ER hatched after 09:01 and hatched red/brown on the 24th Share this post Link to post

Posted May 24, 2020 The adult dragons look beautiful & colorful! 😍 Apologies if this has been asked before, but I’d like a confirmation if the hybrids can be caught in-cave? I haven’t seen any thus why I’m asking. Share this post Link to post

I haven’t seen any thus why I’m asking. Hybrids don't drop in the biomes. They're hybrids because they have to be bred by two different dragons. Share this post Link to post

I suspected it was RNG since I picked up two eggs at about the same time but a day apart and they hatched into one of each color. Thanks for the confirmation! Share this post Link to post

I'm happy to see I was partially wrong about the theme - you made something wonderful and positive in spite of the scary background. I love this so much. ❤️️ Thank you, artists and TJ and everybody involved in this truly heartwarming release. (And I still can't believe how beautiful all the sprites are!)

But in the end I love their sprites. Pretty new dragons. ❤️ Well, by the same token there must be lots of people with reds but no blues from the period when the blue ones temporarily shut off. So there's always the Trade Hub. But I agree with you, both colors look so good that I want to collect many of both, so I am not too fussed about which colors I get first. They will balance out eventually. Breeding them in checker patterns will be a pain exercise in patience, though! Edited May 24, 2020 by tjekan Share this post Link to post
