How to Breed the Elusive Iceberg Dragon in DragonVale

The Chilling Truth: Breeding Your Iceberg Dragon

The Iceberg Dragon, a majestic creature of frozen wonder, is a sought-after addition to any DragonVale park. The good news is, breeding one isn’t as daunting as scaling a glacial peak. The key to obtaining an Iceberg Dragon lies in understanding its elemental requirements. Specifically, the Iceberg Dragon can be bred by using any two dragons, in any order, that possess both the Water and Cold elements. This means you have a decent range of breeding combinations to try. You don’t need any specific, super rare dragons. This flexibility is excellent for new and veteran DragonVale players alike. Head to any Breeding Cave (Normal or Epic) and start experimenting. With the correct elements, a frozen marvel could soon call your park home.

Understanding the Elements: Water and Cold

Before you begin your breeding journey, it’s crucial to understand what dragons possess the Water and Cold elements. These two elements are the foundation for a successful Iceberg Dragon breeding attempt.

Water Element Dragons

Dragons with the water element are diverse and can be obtained through various breeding combinations. Some popular examples of Water element dragons include:

• Water Dragon (A primary Water dragon)
• Seaweed Dragon
• Current Dragon
• Rain Dragon
• Bubble Dragon
• Tidepool Dragon

Many other dragons have water as one of their elements. So, check the dragon descriptions for those additional options.

Cold Element Dragons

Similar to Water dragons, the Cold element dragons are abundant, often easily accessible or breedable from common element combinations. Examples of dragons with the Cold element include:

• Cold Dragon (A primary Cold dragon)
• Snow Dragon
• Glacier Dragon
• Permafrost Dragon
• Yeti Dragon
• Icebound Dragon
• Apocalypse Dragon

Again, many other dragons have Cold as a component of their genetic makeup.

Breeding Combinations: Maximizing Your Chances

Since you need any combination of dragons containing the Water and Cold elements, there are numerous options. Here are a few examples to get you started:

• Water Dragon + Cold Dragon: This is perhaps the most straightforward combination for beginners.
• Seaweed Dragon + Snow Dragon: Both dragons are readily available and can create an Iceberg Dragon.
• Rain Dragon + Glacier Dragon: Another simple, achievable combination.
• Any Water Element Dragon + any Cold Element Dragon: Experiment and see what works!

Keep in mind that breeding is never a guarantee. However, using dragons with the required elements will maximize your chances of hatching that icy beauty.

Patience and Persistence

Like many rare dragons in DragonVale, breeding the Iceberg Dragon may require some patience. Sometimes, you’ll get other dragons. Don’t get discouraged. Continue breeding, using different element combinations if needed. Remember, even failed breeding attempts can help you discover new dragons for your park.
