Thoughts on the new Siyat dragons?

[jocosa]

I love the dragons, but the mechanics required to get purple or blue is freaking annoying. Not being able to use incubate, and having to tie up slots for 2(?) extra days if we want purple? No bueno.

I like to earn my shards early each week, so I hit a biome, max out my 8 slots, hold for 5 hours, kick to the AP. Lather, rinse, repeat until I hit 100 shards. Then I hunt for me. I want the purples, and blues, for lineages but not sure I'll bother if I have to tie up slots until they're under 2 days, unincubated.

What about you?

Incubate won't change the outcome, you'll still need the egg to reach it's natural age for the desired color.

For example.. You want a Blue hatchie. You grab an egg (Biome does not matter for color outcome), you incubate like normal. Egg hits 3 days, 23 hours, has enough views to hatch. Hatches. Gonna be Green.

The time may say just under 4 days, but it's naturally just under 5 days. You'd need to hold that little influenced egg until it's a bit under 3 days incubated time.

So no point incubating unless all you want are Green hatchies. The color variants are affected by the eggs normal, unchanged time only. You'll need to mentally add a day back on if you incubate them.

Green hatchie - Treat like a normal egg. Hatch it at 4 days.

Blue - Hatch it below 4 days but before 1 day, 23 hrs.

Purple - Hatch with 1 day 23 hrs left, or less.

Green and Blue are proven. Purple is still a work in progress.

All right, I think I got it. Thanks for the help. Crossing my fingers for luck in the cave and with the experiments!
