So... Dragons?

Oh, you know. Working together with some friends... And I got the Circuit for a really low price (90k treasure) on the Auction House... I'll keep you guys posted on their babies, if you would like.

Dang. I think I've made enough money total to buy one of those, and I've been grinding for cash pretty hard. Then again, hatchling luck wasn't in my favor, but I'll get there eventually. Those aren't the color schemes I'm looking for, so I'll just pick up some genes myself when the time comes.

Also, fiery might fragment or leaf bolt, anyone? I have spares.

Mister Arch, if I had the treasure, I would buy that Fae. Or the gene...

Well, since the dragon isn't for sale, and I can't remove the gene without deleting it, would you like to save up some treasure and see what her babies look like? Since I'll be breeding her with Drought (the GemBond Guardian), their children are going to either be GemBond or Circuit Fae OR GemBond or Circuit Guardians...



Going off this chart (which is correct, by the way; you read it by looking at the shortest distance between the two colors you're looking for), their children will be somewhere between Banana and Silver (which is a pretty big number of options) for their Primary, Maize and Midnight on the Secondary, and Lemon and Seafoam for Tertiary (the GemBond and Circuit color).

Eh, the Secondary and Tertiary options aren't that great, but... Who knows? They might have some gorgeous babies.

I would definitely do that. How much do you want for any Fae babies with the Circuit?

I'm not really sure, to be honest! We can see what their babies look like first, and then we can haggle from there... Although I'm going to guess somewhere between 35k and 50k? I guess it all depends, really.

We'll have to see. I might be interested.

Unfortunately, their primary range is exceedingly similar to my progenitor's. Which was is to Midnight. 

Either way though, I couldn't afford to pay market price for those babies. My only hope is to try to make a lot of money of off what hatchlings I can raise.

I have unfortunately spent too much money having my custom progenitor be fancy and dignified and stuffs.

I have no idea what I'm doing. I've sold off three of the five hatchlings, and now I only have
Eridan

Spoiler:

and an Unnamed tundra.

Spoiler:

Most of the babies bore purple shades and I've no clue why. I've also bought a Guardian male and named him Solidus, but he (and every other dragon I have) won't be available to breed for 11 days.

For what colors your babies will turn out, just look at the color wheel on the last page. Find the parents' colors, and anything on the shortest arc between them are color options. You should probably sell off those other two after buying two replacements from someone else, to prevent inbreeding. This will give you two breeding pairs, so you can sell and exalt hatchlings that much faster.

What price should I ask for them? 
(Also, it introduces new colors into the gene pool)

Just look through the auction house for the current price people seem to be charging for hatchlings. It changes too often for me to remember it, but I tend to undercut current market price at 20,000 to get rid of the hatchling immediately. Most people ask about 22000-30000 for a common breed.

Arch posted a color wheel on the previous page if you want to determine the colors of possible children from your breedings, and explained how to find it.

I went with 35K and 40K.

They aren't selling.

Don't just pick the most common price.

No. But economics are a thing, they exist, and when you overprice things they tend to not get sold. 

You may very well sell your dragons, because you have exactly what someone is looking for, but common exists for a reason. 

That aside, get high prices while you can, I suppose. Dragon prices are steadily going down.

Yeah, I think they're going to wax and wane. Considering people may or may not mash the breed button as soon as it's available, there'll be times of plenty and times of scarcity as dragons go.

Heh, I'll myself by trying to space my breedings to get a continual flow of hatchlings.

But not that that matters. Bred dragons are currently second class selling citizens man. Everyone's all over these first gen dragons, it's silly, but they are. 

First gens are found in randomly gathered or battled for eggs. Their only advantage is they have no parentage. For some reason this means they are zee master race and the better deals, found in the forums, typically request them as if they're better.

What would eggs fall under in gathering?

Beats the hell outta me.

I've been trying scavenging or digging, but according to the everyone else who has not found one yet, they're really rare.

I spend six actions on gathering food and then the remaining four on digging and scavenging. It's an alright revenue flow.

If you do the coliseum for food, (To which it is entirely good enough to provide for four to sixish dragons) you can devote all 10 (Or 15 if you keep your entire clan well fed for three days straight and then continually there after) to those.

Granted, 40ish scavenging has found me freaking nothing but bones and bone... jars?

You can click on jars and stuff to open them.

No, no, I know, I know. I'm just confused as to how you scavenge that, but dig up jars of gold. Me thinks someone got wires crossed.

Just bought a Fae and I still have around 41K left.

Congratulations.

I think I'm going to weight and grind until they're at breeding readiness.

I suggest saving up for the nesting grounds upgrades and the lair upgrades, if you want to have a steady stream of breeding dragons all the time...
