🐉 Dragonspire - Map

[PlayForFun]

This thread is to provide early insights and discussion on the Dragon Map Area and Gameplay.

Dragon Map

Overview

• Dragon Map is accessable if you switch from Stronghold view to Dragonspire view, and you click on the Map button.
• The Map is a full Map like what we have for Season 1-5.
• There is only 1 difficulty mode like in Season 1.
• The Map consist of 22 Areas, and each Area has 10 stages + 1 Outpost.
• Similarly to Season 1 each Area now ends with and Outpost, which is a Raid battle, and it gives +5% production increase for Wathctower. You need to have a Watchtower build to complete this stage.
• So there are 220 stages in total +21 Outposts (if there is no Outpost at the end of the last Area).
• The Areas have got an own name.
• You can only complete stages in order.

Tile Boosters

• The Map stages boards consist of tiles in 5 rows and 7 columns.
• You can match at least 3 tiles from the same element. When tiles are matched they turn into fireballs and they damaging the enemies in the same column.
• If you match 4 tiles, then you get a special tile like the “Dragon” in the regular game, and if you activate it, then the tiles above, below, left and right are also explode.
• If you match 5 or more tiles, then you get a special tile like the “Diamond” in the regular game, and if you activate it, then the tiles
• In the third row the second and the sixth tiles is a “Tile Booster”.
• When a tile is matched on the Tile Booster, it launches a cluster of 9 fireballs towards enemies instead of one.

Battle Item Slots

• There are 4 Battle Item Slots similar to the regular game, but unlikely to the regular game you can not equip any battle items to any slot.
• Each Battle Item has a Slot Type assigned to them:
  • Heal: Small Healing Salve, Medium Healing Salve, Super Healing Salve, Cleansing Feather, Healing Comet, Angel Feather
  • Damage: Ballistae Attack, Ice Attack Spell, Poison Attack Spell, Storm Attack Spell,
  • Mana: Small Mana Shards, Medium Mana Shards, Super Mana Shards, Mana Comet
  • Misc: Veil of Attack, Veil of Protection, Veil of Eternity
• You can bring only one item per slot type into battle.

[Ruskin505]

Do any data mining experts know if the loot odds on each stage in area 1 have the same odds? If I’m farming, does it matter if I do 1-1 or say 1-5?

[Coasterfreak53]

When is level 4 of Dragon Dawn going to be released… just says “Coming soon”.

… in the mean time, I guess I’ll just keep collecting fishies and pink gems. Lol

[Pr0spero]

If the last set of stages are anything to go by, 3 years for another 30 levels

[CaptainFurface]

It was lame there were only three levels open.

[Lippy]

Meh, that’s how Atlantis / Valhalla / Underwild / (Egypt) worked. Those all had three levels open each month.

Curious to see if there will be a “Hard Mode” in the future. Nobody’s ready for that except the high spenders.

[dusko_m]

Me on Welcome to Dragonspire, tier X. Can’t upgrade Assist skill to lever 6. F-ing 1-star item (parchment) is nowhere to be farmed, only available through higher tier WtD or as a chance in those idle chests. Boring

[QuikStrikeNinja]

Come on, buddy, you know how it is. Most players in the front agree with you and are frustrated because they’re experiencing the same issues. But then there’s that one voice in the back shouting, “You have to spend to keep going”—and that voice belongs to the developer.

[Gerg]

@dusko_m

Boring

perhaps, I’ve been auto-farming (I’ll call it) province 1 and cup drop working through raid options, both of which I suspect add to chest loot, which has resulted in this modest stock.

I’m still stuck as I can’t fulfill my traichern dragons challenge as I’m researching an option in the hatchery which, even at level 3, takes days. I imagine that another hatchery will become available, say, at dragonspire level 6 when new buildings become available.

[Gargon]

Same exact thing, but it´s finishing research today, so I´ll get past it finally!
Not that I really care. I only play the Dragon thing as a hobby… E&P is a full-time job already

[NO3]

Mostly waiting at this stage.

Waiting and doing other stuff. Might go mountain biking instead… have 36 hours of waiting to use up.

[Beer]

Well a normal mob doing 3500 dmg auto attack in the quest certainly doesnt help progressing. The boss does 5k auto attack.

This is just stupid. They can give as much free summon as they want. If you dont get the board you are screwed.

On the other hand if you get the right combo you melt a boss with 3 tiles. The whole dmg structure is effed up. In both ways

[Gerg]

@Beer

If you dont get the board you are screwed.

jeopardy!

[Aksu]

I’m not stuck, I just stopped playing it already lmao

[NikolayVKazakov]

Just relax and play it. Can’t finish in a day, week or month. For those that don’t pay the construction part will last for like 1 year or so. And if they release 3 provinces/ month, looking at least 7 months wait only to probably face final boss which you won’t be able to kill right away, cos of your dragons being weak.

[NO3]

And “Most Convincing Sales Pitch of the Year” award goes to…

[Pr0spero]

Nonsense.

[Dickens]

“Where are you stuck in Dragonspire’”

A good question. I’ll go with

“At the motivation part”

[NO3]

@Dickens

At the motivation part

As a metaphor, consider a broken down beat up car that refuses to start …

My motivation is colored red.

[Dickens]

@NO3

As a metaphor, consider a broken down beat up car that refuses to start

I’d be mad too, if my car died on a sidewalk.
