I notice that on the wiki it lists these dragons as limited. Is that based on an announcement such as on FB or is that based on speculation? If limited, when do we speculate they might disappear? I believe the olympics ends on the 12th of August. I would hope that the three dragons wouldn't disappear then.
Too many dragons to breed with so little time. :O ;) :unsure:
Mabuhay!

There is a post on page 3 I think from DragginDragon and I agree - I don't think these dragons are limited.

Points raised - these dragons have their own habitat. No limited dragons to date have their own habitat, they go into their respective element habitats. In the description, the only thing limited is the brazier lighting up every couple years.

So, I agree with DragginDragon that these dragons are here to stay. It would be nice to know for sure, though. So, I think that the limited statement on the Wiki is speculation until further notice.

@divergent: Sweet!! :)

@Fletch: I'm always struggling with that when making suggestions. Even though it's only a 1% chance, if I post it, I know there WILL be people that hit Rainbow, and if you already have your fill of Rainbows that's really going to suck. I still hope to bring properly-weighted numbers to the combo finder at some point, but in terms of making suggestions on a large scale, I'm finding it's not just a matter of average time, but a good balance of the average time and the worst-case scenario.

EDIT - added Butterfly + Tree back as "alt" suggestion
Yeah, it is tricky. We've started making suggestions and making note of the possible unexpected long fails.

Interesting. Maybe Gold isn't affected by the EBI but Silver and Bronze are?

Aha, that could certainly be! Something like 2-4-4/2-8-8 or 3-4-4/3-8-8 or 3-3.5-4/3-7-8 or whatever

Because of the % of Sandstorm, I think the original pairs of Butterfly + Tree/Moss/Clover (Sakura + Sonic, Love + Sandstorm/Dodo) are probably still better time wise with 7.5 hours for the average common fail with Rainbow occuring 1% of the time.

Let's see what the maths says

Air + Quake/Crystal
Crystal and Quake for 15 hour average 70% of the time
Sandstorm 2 hours 10% of the time
Olympus Dragons 20% of the time

Fail average is 10.5 hours + 0.2 hours is 10.7 hours average fail.

Butterfly + Tree/Moss/Clover
Blazing/Cactus/Crystal/Firefly/Flower/Lava/Moss/Poison/Quake/Scorch/Sonic/Tree/Willow/Pollen for 7.5 hour average fail 79% of the time
Rainbow 48 hours 1% of the time
Olympus Dragons 20% of the time

Fail average is 5.925 hours + 0.48 hours is 6.405 hours or 6 hours and 24 minutes.
So how come no-one pointed out I didn't have Sonic in the fail for the first lot of figures? lol Let's try that again.

Air + Quake/Crystal
Crystal, Quake and Sonic for 12.66 hour average 70% of the time
Sandstorm 2 hours 10% of the time
Olympus Dragons 20% of the time

Fail average is 8.86 hours + 0.2 hours is 8.88 hours average fail or 8 hours and 52 mins.

Better than I had, but still not as good.

Speculation, I still hope they are here to stay

First off all, I"m having a lot of succes with quake and fireworks. In my four accounts I got two gold, wih this one.
With sonic and crystal I have silver and bronze so far.
Someone at the wiki mentioned that he had a lot of success with limiteds. and that If you had five elements the chances would go up, Is this true ? So if he is true then using clover, fireworks, or another limited would give you a better chance. Could this be confirmed ? Panlong with lightning ?
With air and crystal I got in one account a second sandstorm, so thats cool. And I have a rainbow cooking, with fireworks and crystal.

@Acquablau 1/3 Blazing + Crystal, 2/3 Air + Quake

@coolcor I seriously doubt it, to the point that I can't bring myself to test it :P

I have ill-rotten good luck... So far I got 2 Golds and 4 Bronzes... That's really cool but I'd need at least 1 Silver before they "go away"(yes, I'm part of those who think they are limited.

I'm kind of bummed that all three dragons have the same basic design, I wish there were some more differences between them. Oh well. I've got a Bronze and Silver in the hatchery, and I'm waiting on an unknown Olympus in the EBS. Hoping it's a Gold.

I'm enjoying the extra challenge that there are 3 types of dragons to acquire (and that I specifically want a 2gold-1silver-1bronze combination of them for future breeding purposes since I assume they will go away after the Olympics end) from the same element combination. I have one of each so far. The suspense of not knowing whether what I'm currently breeding is the 2nd gold I need or yet another bronze/silver is making things more interesting and suspenseful for me, and really putting some excitement back into the game.

PS I've gotten all of mine with the EBI and I have gotten an absolute shit ton of crystal dragons, which I now have a hatred for because of how long they take to hatch...

I am shocked by how quickly people get dragons. I have been hammer-and-tong on breeding since release and have one olympus (of unknown metal) so far. I would guess it would take me a few weeks to breed the set. Maybe I need some new friends (funone021) for some more gems! I try and keep 6 friends and swap daily - but two of my friends have moved on - so looking for another two if anyone has space.
