Anyone care to speculate on this new Facebook post? What do you think is coming? When do you think it will arrive? I know many people were disappointed when the new type of seasonal dragons were released. Do you think this will be another disappointment? Do you have any other thoughts about it?

You can trade 5 gems for 30 dark magic and 5 for 30 light magic, but it appears you can only do it once.
You can only buy each magic package in the market once (including the ones where you pay with real money instead of 5 gems)

Looks like dark is winning currently :/
I'm pretty sure the portal has a starry night sky animation no matter what side is "winning".
Also the progress bars on the light vestige and dark remnant seem to only be linked directly to what you do in your own park and not what the community is doing as a whole.

Noticed this in the notes, it may explain the magnetic+magnetic getting copper, though I didn't think Magnetic was an Epic:

Breeding Changes?

Due to a rift in magic, the wizards have noticed some changes in dragon breeding. Apparently, with the wild effects of the new magics coming into DragonVale, Epic Dragons bred together from the same Habitat can produce an egg with any of the combined elements.

Yes, but it might not be the center that shows who's winning. The starry sky is surrounded by swirls of both dark and light, similar to the unmixed swirls around each rift habitat. It might be that that changes over time to show dominance, but since the tutorial gives to both sides, it's too evenly matched right now to tell.

It is not the center that is different. It is the tines themselves. Notice the lighter and darker colors on the tines, the curved upright posts.

I also wanted to include a few of the magic numbers. These numbers reset after a period of time, so I was able to receive the 35 magic reward twice so far for collecting party hats.

For races the rewards are as follows: 50, 25, 13, 6, 3, 2, 1, 1...
For party hats the rewards are: 35, 26, 19, 14, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3, 2, 2, 1, ....

The only thing the Q&A doesn't say is how long we have to cast our magic towards these elements. Will it take 5 days? What?

8 million treats and 320 gems is a nice bonus, time to L20 some more dragons :) I'm not sure what to do with the gems though, I had already got the extra 5 habitats and only had 2 more needing 25 gems to upgrade. :)

I'm not saying this in defense of my own theory, but I think the light grey you're showing is an artifact of the flashing highlight you get when you select something - the screen capture just happened to get it at a bright moment in the cycle. At least, I hope so, because my tines are awfully dark now, and I was kinda hoping for light... ^_^

So...how much "magic" we collect and cast (for either light or dark or both) determines how big of a "reward" we will get? Are there any clues about what the reward is or how it could possibly differ in magnitude for various players? Is it possible to obtain the best reward available by collecting magic and not spending money to buy it?

So many questions with all these new features!
Looking through the market I noticed that two of the items that can be purchased for real money are 'light' and 'dark' upgrades.
These seem to make the vestiges or remnants larger and add an egg to it (making it into a habitat?)
Presumably this is also what the earning bars on them are working towards. I'm also guessing that if you earn an egg for the dark remnant and the light side 'wins' or vice versa the egg that you earned will remain true to its original element. So you'll still get a 'free' dragon of that element even if the Rift egg in the center goes to the other element.
That's just a guess on my part though.

We can now get to level 50. I am glad I didn't use my stash of treats before. I might as well get the xp for raising my bouquet and bearded to 20... I got over 400 magic for raising each one. And I am now 3/4 of the way through level 45, and 3/4 of the way to earning my first rift egg and free habitat.

Just out of intreats, which side is everyone earning towards?
Dark? Light? Or both evenly?

So somehow I'm level 50 now.

I don't really understand. Before I updated, I logged on to find myself being rewarded for getting to level 46. Then, I looked to see I was already halfway through the level.

After updating, going through all the tutorials, and collecting all my rewards, I'm now at max level again. So much for holding off on buying treats until the level cap raised.

I am gifting all my magic to light until I receive the first level of reward. Then I will gift all my magic to dark until I receive the first reward for it. Then I will switch back.
