Sagittarius Blitz Breeding

[void slate]

If the goal of the Sagittarius Blitz Breeding was to get players to use up all of their resources with nothing to show, then mission accomplished. I was finally able to get the Gingerbread dragon bred/hatched after multiple double egg relics and a second breeding den and then using breeding/hatching relics. I was able to grind and also managed to get the Pride Dragon hatched with just about a half of day to breed the Sagittarius Dragon. Used more double egg relics and all the breeding tokens I had with nothing to show. I believe I had around 11-12 breeding tokens when I began all this and used up I think 3-4 double egg relics which we know aren’t cheap. Come to find out the Sagittarius Dragon had something like a .73% chance of breeding! Seriously? At least make the game fair and FUN to play. Just leaves me frustrated with a bitter taste in my mouth having wasted all those resources I had collected for nothing.

Same here

I also used some 12 breeding tokens trying (and failing) to get Sagittarius! It doesn’t annoy me too greatly because there are no breeding tokens this ancient event (like Ik’ez) which I could have used those breeding tokens. The point remains though, players realistically had two days at best to try breeding and the odds were very bad

I've learnt that lesson from previouse Blitz Breeding Events and ignore this Event by now completely.

Blitz breeding odds are typically low as there are a lot of outcomes. (However, there are occasionally times when the odds are higher). Sorry you missed Sagittarius.

I’m not sure if it was blitz breeding, but I have seen in the past where they basically have a guaranteed percentage to breed no matter how many outcomes there are. It would be great to implement that in breeding blitz as long as the percentage was realistic.

[topaz solar]

Sometimes they do.

The dml planner gives a percentage for certain breeding combo's too, but I wouldn't call them "guaranteed" as much as a calculation of a %.

Are you guys serious? First Sagittarius, now this? Where are the higher odds? It's not a dragon whose parents are obtainable easily. Then almost with 40 outcomes. It's just like how It's used to be in old days! No boosted odds,only lucky players will get it. It wasn't even easy to attempt sometime(Sagittarius). What's the point of bringing old legendary dragons if no one can get them? Just put them in expensive bundle instead! I do remember, before this,almost every blitz breeding which had many outcomes, also had higher odds to get the blitz dragon, 5%,10% etc. Ig old team worked on that. But now,good old days are back! I don't know if these feedbacks even get reviewed.

Also,looks like we're also getting surprise events now. A gem spending event with tickets(it's only mentioned in a 'thread'), now this blitz. Maybe more to come!

[rugged spindle]

ahh - the good old days when every short event was a complete surprise are finally coming back
noice

Hi Duskwing! Thank you for sharing your concerns about the recent dragon releases and the perceived lack of higher odds. We understand your frustration and value your feedback.

Our team takes player feedback seriously and considers it when making decisions about game mechanics and dragon availability. While obtaining certain dragons may seem challenging, we aim to create a sense of excitement and rarity in the game.

We appreciate your dedication and feedback. Your voice matters to us, and we are constantly working to improve the game based on player input. Please feel free to reach out to us with any further suggestions or concerns.

Anya there have been such breedings with a guaranteed 5% odds. That's still not high, but it's worth trying to breed for these dragons. Just something for the team to consider.

[teal flicker]

Yeah,totally agree!

[teal flicker]

Thanks Anya! I hope it'll considered in future blitz breedings.

[austere flare]

M'Chelle, sure, I will pass your suggestion to the team 🙌

[topaz solar]

Thank you Anya.

Anya, please let the team know the difference between chance/luck and challenge. When you have to obtain a dragon with very little percentage, it is chance/luck, not a challenge. When you have to obtain a dragon by earning other dragons first, that could be considered a challenge but if after that, the percentages are so low, it’s nearly impossible to get (all based on luck/chance), that isn’t a challenge anymore. Hopefully these things are discussed with the team.

[austere flare]

Hi Raddad! Thanks a lot for your feedback, I will pass this information to our team 😇

Not to beat a dead horse, but I had high hopes of getting Stache since I had more time to obtain the dragon due to getting Ze Zash early in the week. 5 double egg relics spent with nothing to show!

[topaz solar]

TGood luck to you. I hope you get a happy suprise! 🍀 I spent four DER but used a lot of breeding skip relics because of the long breeding and hatching relics because of the long failures. Took 3+ days that way. I even woke up at night for a extra chance and got it the next morning.

[void slate]

No, I did’t get it. I had no breeding relics to use because I used up all of them trying to get Sagittarius. I did utilize the 5 double egg relics to their fullest though and also set timers to wake up to give it another go. Unfortunately, this turned out to be another huge waste of time, energy, and resources for me.

[topaz solar]

Stache was hard. I suggested to Anya that the team set a guaranteed % of at least 5% (rather than the 2% or less) and the team seemed open to it as they were unaware this was done in the past. You can suggest a guaranteed % in #submit-a-suggestion using .submit

[void slate]

Guaranteed % of at least 5% would be fantastic. I think if you are using up 1 or 2 double egg relics, on top of getting the required dragons in time, it is fair to have a great chance at getting the dragon. I understand they want to make dragons rare and such, but just the fact that certain dragons only come around for short periods of time makes them rare. Making them nearly impossible to get only makes players frustrated especially when it’s not due to their skill or ability, only by a very small chance they can get the dragon.
