Posted April 13, 2022 I'm trying to turn a sapphire egg gold by exposing it to a lot of views, so naturally it's been getting sick. The first time it got sick, I warded it, and the ward expired six hours later. Now it's sick again and I can't seem to ward it a second time. The egg is marked as "already protected" even though it isn't– the ward expired yesterday. Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding how the ward BSA works? Can you only do it to an egg once?

Posted April 13, 2022 Also, Sapphires do not need to be bombed with views as an egg to change to yellow! They can change as hatchies without ever getting sick. As long as they get to about 4020 views or so, they will turn yellow no matter what stage they are. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 14, 2022 Also keep in mind that if you're trying to turn it yellow in the hopes of being able to view the yellow egg for your encyclopedia that won't work, because IIRC it only counts views per dragon once (or, like, once every X days or so?). So since you've already viewed it as a blue egg, even if you turn it yellow you won't be able to get have it count as viewing it as a yellow egg. So it's really safest to just turn it as a hatchling, or to take a bit longer at it and raise the views more steadily than just bombing it rapidly unless you're specifically trying to make it yellow for some reason (such as trying to trade it or something) Share this post Link to post

Adult dragons can count every 30 days, I believe, but eggs don't last that long. Share this post Link to post

I wasn't aware that the encyclopedia worked like that. Looks like I went overboard by bombing it early. Thanks! Share this post Link to post
Posted April 14, 2022 You're welcome! It's easy to assume you have to get it to change while in the egg, IIRC basically every other dragon that has multiple colors is set at hatching, so it's reasonable to assume you have to turn Sapphires as Eggs, too, but they're the exception. :3 Share this post Link to post
