Breeding the elusive Diamond Dragon in Dragon Story is a coveted goal for many players. This magnificent creature is not only visually stunning but also a symbol of dedication and strategic breeding. The direct answer to how you breed a Diamond Dragon is this:
You can breed a Diamond Dragon by using an Ice Dragon and a Mine Dragon, in either order, at any Breeding Cave. It’s a straightforward combination, but achieving it still requires understanding the mechanics of breeding in Dragon Story.
Understanding the Basics of Dragon Breeding
Before diving deeper, let’s refresh some fundamental concepts of Dragon Story breeding. Each dragon in the game possesses a specific set of elements (e.g., Fire, Water, Earth, Plant, Cold, Lightning, etc.) that determine what other dragons it can produce. Hybrid dragons possess a combination of these elements.
- Breeding Caves: These are essential locations for attempting to breed new dragons. Any of your available caves can be used, provided you have compatible dragons.
- Order Doesn’t Matter: The order in which you select your breeding pair doesn’t affect the outcome, meaning Ice Dragon + Mine Dragon has the same possibilities as Mine Dragon + Ice Dragon.
- Time Commitment: Dragon breeding isn’t instantaneous. Once you start a breeding attempt, you will need to wait for the breeding process to conclude, followed by a separate hatching process.
The Diamond Dragon Breeding Process
Choosing Your Breeding Pair
To breed the Diamond Dragon, you specifically need an Ice Dragon and a Mine Dragon. These are both hybrid dragons with specific element combinations:
- Ice Dragon: A combination of Cold and Water elements.
- Mine Dragon: A combination of Earth and Fire elements.
Make sure you have both these dragons in your collection, and they are at a level where they can breed. Ideally, raising them to at least level 11 can improve your chances of getting rare outcomes.
Starting the Breeding Process
- Navigate to any of your Breeding Caves.
- Select your Ice Dragon and your Mine Dragon as the breeding pair.
- Confirm your selection to initiate the breeding process.
- The game will now display the breeding time. For the Diamond Dragon, this is typically 44 hours.
- Wait patiently for the breeding time to complete.
Hatching Your Diamond Dragon
- Once the breeding is complete, an egg will appear in the breeding cave.
- Tap on the egg to move it to your hatchery.
- The egg will now require 44 hours to hatch.
- After this time, you can finally add the majestic Diamond Dragon to your island!
Key Factors Affecting Breeding
While the combination of Ice Dragon and Mine Dragon guarantees you have a chance at a Diamond Dragon, certain elements can influence your chances. Remember, there are always a range of potential dragon outcomes from breeding any pair of dragons.
- Level of Dragons: Higher-level dragons can increase your chances of producing more rare dragons. Aim to breed with dragons at level 11 or higher to improve your odds.
- Patience: Breeding in Dragon Story is not a race. There is always an element of chance, and you might have to try the combination a few times before getting your Diamond Dragon.
Diamond Dragon Information
The Diamond Dragon is a prized dragon for many reasons:
- Appearance: It has striking, crystalline scales that shimmer beautifully and make it a unique addition to your island.
- Breeding Time: The 44-hour breeding and hatching time is a signal of its rarity and worth.
- Rarity: The Diamond Dragon is not a common dragon and is considered very desirable.
