    Hello Archer's son! I love your idea about the arena!! It would be so cool to see the dragons doing something different for a change! They're in that arena for such a long time would be great to see them dance or play football!! :D

    Just got a 12 hour breeding time from a level 5 Cold dragon and a level 4 Firefly.

    Frostfire, here I come! :D

    (I keep all my dragons at level 4, much easier to play around with different level combinations)

    Please excuse me while I vent my frustrations....

    I can not get a SINGLE dragon that has come out recently!!!

    Frost fire, panlong, even ICEBERG are eluding me!!! Iceberg is supposed to be EASY to get, not like RAINBOW (please, DON'T get me started on my second rainbow troubles)! If I had a dollar for every time I felt like screaming at yet ANOTHER failure, I'd be frigging RICH!!! Has anyone else noticed that pan long's picture in the store has him giving what appears to be a smirk? EVERY TIME i check to make sure I have the right elements, I want to SCEAM in frusteration!!! That iceburg looks like an overweight seal, panlong has his smirk and don't even get me STARTED on the frost fire!

    Backflip, if you're reading this, THIS is why we need a dragon trading post, so that people like me who can't get their hands on dragons like these can trade their OTHER rare dragons for them (like the HUNDREDS of blue fires i have gotten in my frost fire endeavors).

    I can not se WHY even ICEBURG eludes me!!!!


    AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

    @girlpower
    So happy about panlong! At least SOME of us are having sucess...

    @Archies son
    Nice dream! The pouch dragon is a nice idea, did it look like a kangaroo?

    @jazbodooly
    Cooking while playing? Don't spill anything!

    Oh Dando.... :(
    I am sooo sorry you are having such a darn frustrating time, I REALLY REALLY feel for you.
    I am so surprised to hear that you can't get that fat ugly sea cow Iceberg.
    I got one straight away, then since got two more eggs when I didn't want it, tying for that elusive Frosty.
    Have sold one egg and one still in nursery.
    You would have to think its easy IF I CAN GET THEM huh?

    I will go back over my posts and also try and remember what I last used to get the yucky thing,

    As for the second rainbow.....same deal here, had to put that one aside for now.

    I ended up getting Panlong with a brand new lvl 4 blazing and an old lvl 10 mud in that order.

    Okay, I went searching through old posts when Iceberg first came out.
    You really need a lucky break right now and maybe just try for iceberg as its normally been an easy one to get,
    not including you obviously.

    Here's what I found for Iceberg

    1. Water lvl 15 / Ice lvl 13
    2. Water lvl 10 / Ice lvl 10 (mine)
    3. Ice. / Mountain (lvls not posted)
    4. Quake. / Ice (lvls not posted)
    5. Water lvl 10 / Cold lvl 7

    Maybe consider using brand new dragons (or at least one) to bred from straight away, that's worked for others and sometimes for myself (or it was just going to happen anyway - rampant random)
    Maybe try different lvls...4 has been successful.

    Not sure what else to suggest, well we could all send you a gem and you could buy one of them.....I am starting to ponder this for the Frostfire.....and I am a real gem hoarder anyway ( never know when I may REALLY need them) so don't use them much or sparingly for speeding up breeding/hatching.

    Sending you bucket loads of good wishes and if past history is anything to go by....whenever we have a rant, moan, whinge or want to throw in the towel....well we usually get the lucky break we long for....
    Make sure you post as soon as it happens please

    Australia Day!

    Aussie Aussie Aussie!

    Anyway, got some friends over today who also play DV and I'm showing off all my rates that he hasn't got! Also my EBC and Dragonsai! (Sending him a gem too!) Really feeling for all you guys unable to get Panlong! I am reliving the frustration trying to get a second! Haven't started on Frostfire yet, but I'm sure that will give me some grey hairs at the tender age of 15!

    Panlong

    Hello DV'ers! Took some time off but back again, thanks to my daughter's coaxing. :rolleyes:
    I've yet to snag a Panlong, but my daughter has two by crossing Fog x Lava. I'm also still seeking Rainbow & Sun, as before, ....and now Pan & Frostfire. Picked up Iceberg.
    Im curious, has anyone gotten Frostfire with Fire x Storm? That's a pretty sure combo for Blue Fire.

    HAPPY AUSSIE DAY!!!!! gotta love having a day off work (well me anyway)
    You will still be on holidays anyway....not for much longer though!

    Haha, Frostfire has already given me more greys.....just as well the hair appointment is next week....if she says there's more, I will blame DV :D
    Just hatched my Panlong...fed to lvl 10 for now....that's one beauty of a dragon,
    Been trying for a second one back to back since they got out of the love cave,
    and Frosty.....well back to back breeding as soon as the whisper was out.....so maybe you should start trying for that one now?

    Hello there, Archer's son! Believe it or not I've had my share of DV dreams, too! That's what happens when the last thing you do before bed is tend to the dragons ;). Your dreams sound way more interesting than mine. Did you ever become a dragon rider in your dream? That would be the BEST!

    I think it's great that your dragons are named after family members. Do they get to pick what dragon they are? Thanks for posting in the forum!

    Well hello there Archers son, it's lovely to meet you via this forum :)
    I must say your dream had some great ideas in it and it sounds like you had a great time playing with the DV dragons also.

    I really like the idea of the pouch dragon, hehe seeing as I live in Australia....you know the land of Skippy the kangaroo....well this dragon sounds quiet patriotic to me and I guess I would really have no choice but to name mine Skippy ;)

    I am also a strong advocat for the dragons to be doing something in the colosseum.....I think they must get so bored in their confined space for such a long time with a crowd of wizards just sitting there staring at them, I wonder if they get embarrassed sometimes?

    I think it would be a great idea if you got your Dad to email Backflip Studios with your ideas.....that's of course if you can drag him away from playing DV :D

    I bet you love being able to play this at your Dads place and check what he has bred since you last stayed?
    You may need to watch the dinner to make sure Dad doesn't burnt the meat if he starts trying to cook and play DV at the same time, and especially watch he doesn't go and sell a rare dragon....that almost makes me feel a little ill in my tummy to think of that happening....I would much rather eat burnt meat :p
    I think that blazing dragon named after your Dad must be a funny one to watch?

    Thank you for your great post and happy DV dreams :)

    Oh heck sorry AJ :(
    No, it didn't take weeks for Panlong, I'm not sure how many days but it would be from when it was released until my a day before my post saying it was in the nursery....that's my timezone too of course....but you are certainly correct in saying it was very quick for me.....

    Frosty is a whole different matter, but you already know that too :(
    Well the only thing I can sort of say in my defense is that you have a good lot of rainbows, so you sure left me behind when you got your second one...third one doesn't count cause that's a given with two to bred from.....weak I k ow but it's the best I can come up with to hopefully not make you feel too alone ;)

    Hopefully yours will be within the next breed to two!
    Keep us posted, it's gotta happen soon for you too xx

    Venting is good for the Soul...

    Dando, I feel your pain. :( I can't get Frosty or Pan either. :mad:
    At least I got the Iceberg. Been trying for a second Sandstorm, too.
    It is so frustrating to try over & over without success. But hang in there, you're not alone! My experience has been that luck turns just when you're ready to give up. Good luck to you! Oh, and isn't nice to have this forum to vent to people who understand?:D

    Congrats Echoseven! Hope it is a frosty :)
    I bred another cold and already have fireflys and scorches as a never ending failed breeding supply, so have also been keeping them at lvl 4 to give this a go.
    Have bred cold/firefly both lvl 4 a few times in row but no luck yet.
    Do you recall now many tries you did with yours and were they back to back breeds?

    Being an ex kiwi, where over the ditch and into the land of the long white cloud do you class as dreamland btw? Heh, just curious :)

So i went and did that and ended up with some bull crap that has a list of dragon eggs and breeding things, deffinately not the game i was looking for.. Anyone know anything of this? And how would i be able to buy the gems :(
