Path of Dragons

General Overview

The Path of Drgaons is a new game event, which is similar to Path of Valor

It’s a probably a 28 day long event same as Path of Valor, during which there are Daily Challenges and Dragon Challenges. This is not a Stage-based Event, unlike Challenge Events and Seasonal Events. It’s about completing Challenges in various parts of the game. There isn’t new playable World Map/Quest content.

Completing these Challenges will earn you Path of Dragons Points, which unlock rewards.

Path of Dragons has two sets of rewards: Free and Premium rewards. Premium rewards are unlocked when Path of Dragons Pass is activated — and requires purchase. (NOTE: The price of the Path of Dragons Pass is set to FREE in Beta, so we don’t know what it will cost. )

There is only one Path of Dragons Pass.
(There is no Elite Pass like what we have for Path of Valor or Giants.)

If you unlock a Milestone, you’ll get the Free reward whether you’ve purchased the Path of Dragons Pass or not. If you’ve purchased the Path of Dragons Pass, then you’ll ALSO get the Premium reward for that Milestone.

If you buy the Path of Dragons Pass, then it gives you 300 Gems, 1x Legendary Dragon Token, and 1000 Path of Dragons Points.

Note, if you are maxed, you can’t accumulate. So folks like me will have to find a way to use up resources when this daily challenge comes up. Fish is easier with leveling. But dragons tone may require crafting as long building times stay.

Given the shortage of feathers, I may not use all of mine up so I can load the hatchery as needed.

I don’t have three dragons available to level. This one could be tough.

Thanks for info. I am currently raiding a lot with ton of rerolls so fish is not problematic, and if I ever have full Dragonstone Storages I’ll just craft something.

Otherwise hoping this will cost $10 at most.

There are some battle items,which require Fish for crafting.

So that can help too.

Hope they don’t price me out… I’m a big fan of the engagement I get from PoV and PoG. Shouldn’t be higher than PoV.

Big skip for me. I don’t want to double the monthly spend as well as double the time spent on the game.

Even for PoV & PoG, once I’ve completed, close to 2 weeks I don’t even bother looking at the daily challenges.

I don’t do a lot of raids, and constantly have full fish.

Will have to plan around the training related ones too. I’m often low on dragonlings and feathers

Thx, I have fixed this.

Any word on the timing of this? Be a shame if it didn’t coincide with PoV and PoG, but it would also suck to wait four weeks for it to start with the next one.

The earliest date it can start is November 18th.

Right. I know that. Was wondering if they’re linking the events to start at the same time or have them independent.

I’m missing some activities in the list of daily challenges:

  • tickle 10 flying dragons
  • watch the watcher dragon in your base for 1 minute
  • watch the grass grow in your dragon base for 2 minutes
  • switch the positions of 5 buildings in your base
  • Greet a Dragon villager => boop the snoot of a dragonling
  • play hide and seek with the tiny dragon gang (soon)
  • win a flying dragon race by quickly tapping your dragon (soon)
  • grow 5 crypt mushrooms in the not-so-secret cave (soon?)
  • catch 3 different fish in the river (soon)
  • sell 5 crypt mushrooms in the market (soon, new building)
  • activate the dragon roomba (batteries not included) to clean the dragon basis from moss (soon)
  • collect 10 gems from the gem mine on the nearly invisible flying island (soon?)
