Dragon city is free to play multiplayer mobile game available on both Android and iOS devices. It was first launched on May 8, 2012, on the Facebook social media platform. Next year ( 2013 ) it was made an official available on iOS, and then in August 2014, it was released on Android OS.
It a popular gaming title developed by Social Point and currently has more than 80-million users worldwide according to official statistics. The social point which was founded on 15 October 2008 is now a subsidiary of Take Two Interactive Software, Inc. They are also the publisher of various other gaming titles like Monster Legends, world chef, etc.
What is Dragon City?
As the name sounds is a competitive 3-on-3 multiplayer game centred around dragons and their breeding. Currently, it has more than 100 million downloads on Google play store with 4.6/5 start rating. It also has millions of users and has received 4.7/5 star rating on the iOS platform. According to sensortower, this game is generating revenue of 1 million USD per day.
Within the game, you will get your own floating islands where you will have to farm for food, build up defences to defend your city and collect all sorts of dragon eggs. You as a player will get access to all kind of in-game training, tools and upgrades to become a true Master.
You will start your journey as a trainer, and in your journey, you will get the opportunity to fight with millions of other players. In order to achieve the Master title, you will first have to collect all sorts of eggs in various categories. Then you will need to feed your pet dragons and evolve them to higher levels. If you want, you can breed them to create a new, more advanced and epic battle dragons.
Remember that in this game you can breed almost 500 different types of dragons. There are also dozens of eggs to collect and evolve.
If you want to evolve your pets to higher levels, then you will also have to farm and harvest resources on your islands. Then if you want your pets to grow faster than you will have to fight with other gamers in order to loot their resources.
So basically it’s a very involved game which requires lots of patience. Now as a player you obviously can speed up things if you have thousands of bucks to spend on in-game purchases.
Additionally, you also need to build strategies on how to attack other gamer’s cities in order to loot their resources and to upgrade your own city.
Dragon City Breeding Guide with Tables
The basic starter tutorial is given when a player starts the game for the first time. If you are a new player or starting from scratch, then your first mission is to feed and evolve your dragon to at least level 4. Once you have achieved that level, your next task is to build up a breeding ground where your dragons can lay their eggs. It takes time to lay eggs and then its a game of patience. It can take from a few hours to weeks for babies to hatch from their eggshells.
Remember that breeding is a game of patience and a bit of luck. Developer, Social Point uses some sort of algorithms which sometimes make its hard for players to breed dragons they want for themselves. This might be a bit annoying, but it also increases the difficulty level and thus fun and competition.
In this guide, I have tried to create easy to understand tables to help you breed various types of dragons like legendary, pure, electric, etc. Each table will have the information related to only one specific category of the breed.
Terra
| Type 1 | Type 2 | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Sea | Terra | Mud type or waterfall |
| Terra | Electric | Chameleon or star |
| Flame | Terra | Flaming rock or volcano |
| Terra | Nature | Cactus or tropical |
| Dark | Terra | Venom or Hedgehog |
| Terra | Ice | Alpine or Snowflake |
How to get pure dragon
The only way to get pure is by breeding any of the legendary. Now you must remember that you need to have at least 15 million gold because this is the amount you need to spend to evolve your pure dragon from hatchling to the adult.
Furthermore, offspring is guaranteed. It means that if you breed pure with fire ( for the sake of example ), then you will definitely get Pure Flame. The same applies to every other type.
Example:
- Pure + Sea will result in Pure Sea
- Pure + Electic will get you Pure Electric
How to get a legendary dragon
This game had an update back in July 2013 after which the only way to get legendary dragon is by breeding the pure or pure hybrids together.
Now getting pure or hybrid dragon is by themselves way too hard. I have been playing this game since 2014 and I will able to get my first pure in mid-2016 ( just to make it clear, I am not an avid player ).
You should note that the possibility of getting legendary is 1 out of 6 trials. The breeding time is two days and six6 hours, and please check the example below:
- Pure + Pure ( any type, for ex: Metal, Nature, etc.).
- Pure + Pure
War
In order to get War type, you will need breed War with any of the other type dragons except the sea.
Below I have listed the easiest combination.
| Type 1 | Type 2 | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| War | Nature | Red Woods |
| War | Flame | Juggernaut |
| War | Terra | Colossal |
| War | Metal | Panzer |
| War | Archangel | Elific |
There are few other possible combinations but the possibility of getting them is quite hard, and so I have not listed them.
I will try my best to keep this guide updated with all the latest combinations and newly updated breeds.
If you think that I have missed anything or have a suggestion, then please let me know in the comment section.
