This is the place to discuss everything about this event.
There is only one path. Final reward is the Nirvana Dragon.
We do not have to use only legendary dragons. We can choose other rarities as well.
It seems that the keys we get and need are different for each player. So it makes no sense to put informations here for that.
Good luck.

This gets stricter as you progress, with progressively more of the six slots becoming limited to Legendary and Heroic. By the time you get to node 10 they are all so limited.

Post count: 11130Reputation: 6765Joined:Location: New Jersey, USAHmm unless I missed something it would only let me pick heroic and legendary dragons. Though it might be more of a case of me not having any in the Rare category since most of those are in the dragonarium.

Hmm maybe they will give out more, I only got blue in the first two set of videos, plus the picture showed only blue orbs. Funnily I had to look up Mysterious because in my head I was saying to myself "wow that looks like Kryptonite". I do not remember him being on the list of dragons with the name changes but I guess he was on that list.

There are no blue keys in this one. They used them in the image for the freebies for some reason, but it gives out red, and there isn't even a slot for them in the key stock display.
I do not think this is correct, I got nothing but blue keys from freebies. In the next round I will write them down but I didn't for the first two sets.
But with that aside, I did the temp quest in airplane mode and these are they keys I got. I am not sure if they are random or not so take it with a grain of salt.

That would be incredibly weird, and seems impossible to balance properly, but it seems like the only explanation at this point.

What do you mean there are none in your game? None in your freebies or none on your legendary path?? I am sitting in front of my second door (I think) but the 7th or 8th tile and here is what mine looks like:

Well that just sucks!!! I wonder why that is. I get that some would require different amounts at different doors but why have some colors excluded. I wonder if it is level based. But I am going to go out on a limb and say that the higher your level the harder your path.

Post count: 11130Reputation: 6765Joined:Location: New Jersey, USA@bettina-löffler I wonder if the rewards are the same for everyone.... so far I got 8 very rare joker orbs and two sets of Warlord orbs, I think it was 10 in the first set. I got the epic joker orbs also but I do not remember how many those were.

Ill check what I have there when I reach it. I stuck at the second door because I need blue keys. My videos are not ready yet. So I dont know what I will get from them.

Post count: 391Reputation: 149Joined:@Nynaevelan I have green which you don't (the three colors in my display are green/red/yellow where you have yellow/blue/red, respectively). And it looks like you're getting red from the puzzle island based on that 10, where I got yellow. That door for me was 4 red/3 green. And I got 2 green/1 red from the first two quest rounds.
Which implies they AREN'T actually randomizing the requirements or rewards, just what color they show up as! What you see as blue, I see as red. What you see as red, I see as yellow. What you see as yellow, I see as green. But while the visual display varies, it's mechanically exactly the same under the covers.
That actually makes much more sense, since it would allow for proper balancing of the key requirements vs. availability.
If I'm right, then the door between nodes 12 and 13 will be 10 red for you, since it's 10 yellow for me.

Post count: 11130Reputation: 6765Joined:Location: New Jersey, USA@scott-clark thanks Scott for analyzing all that and yes your conclusions make sense for me. I am wondering if the quest chest contents will change as well based on this analysis.

Post count: 391Reputation: 149Joined:@nynaevelan I assume you mean the reward chests as you progress through the nodes, since the keys obtained from the quest do match up as described? I doubt those are random either. What I got so far, as best I can recall, is the same as what others have reported. But since we can tap to see the upcoming rewards, node 14 for me is 10 Legendary orbs. 15 is 30 Warlord orbs. 17 is 10 Legendary orbs. 18 is 30 Warlord orbs.
The more I think about this, the more it really annoys me. If there's no true randomization, what's the point of the APPARENT randomization except to try and prevent us from sharing information? And as we've just demonstrated, it wasn't exactly hard to crack the concealment. Trying to -actively discourage- community collaboration isn't exactly a good thing.

If it helps anyone, I got 1 red key from my freebies this morning and I had green and red keys for my first door.
I needed yellow ones.

Post count: 391Reputation: 149Joined:Given that we now know the colors are scrambled, it’s probably best to share info in terms of where the keys appear in the display, rather than their color. I propose the convention that “key 1” is the first in the top row, “key 2” is the second in the top row, and “key 3” is the one in the second row.

Post count: 391Reputation: 149Joined:The final door is actually only like 3 keys total, unfortunately I forgot to write down which ones! Basically as long as you get the two chests from the puzzles, it takes very few quest rounds to get through the doors. And the fights don't scale up anywhere near as hard as last time - I'm up to node 18/20, IIRC, and haven't hit one yet my top team couldn't take in one go. With the 8 hour cool down, this'll be a cinch to finish.
I'd say it's closest to the Easy path on the last Dragon Rescue. There is absolutely no comparison with the Hard path.

First two doors required a mix of both top-row keys (for me this is red and green)
Third door requires 5 (I think) second-row keys (yellow for me)
Third and, I think, fifth are each 10 key #3s. Matching up perfectly with the chests on the Puzzle Island.

Easy is relative though.
I doubt I will get there, purely because I don't have enough (and/or high enough level) L/H dragons.
If I can even get past the last door key wise.Good point though you should be able to make it as long as you can get to the final battle. Once you do just whiddle him down with multiple teams until you win.
The best thing I like about this Rescue is that the keys are easier to obtain and the battles are not as difficult.
The one thing that I do not like about this Rescue is if you try to select dragons by filtering on rarity it only gives you legendary, as it should. But if you autoselect it picks from all rarities, if legendary is the requirement than it should only be selecting legendary dragons.

For the first battles only the first 2 had to be L or H. For the next onse it was always one more L or H. I could choose other rarities first by filtering. Later not anymore. But autoselect also didnt.

Not easy for me. I'm not even half way done & need 4 blue & 3 yellow keys to unlock the next level. I have no blue, 2 yellow, & 12 red.
Seems as if for some it was easy to get the keys and for some it was difficult or impossible. That was not well planned.

Hmmm something wonky with my game, I had epics, very rares and even commons picked during my autoselect. Since there was only a 8 hour wait time I stopped picking after the first few battles, I just let auto select do it.

Post count: 11Reputation: 5Joined:My biggest frustration with this event is that I cannot control the attacks by my dragons. The computer has terrible strategy when attacking which has cost me many battles that I should have won (example: not using strong element attacks against their corresponding weak element defenses). As a newer player, not being able to utilize smart attacks will cost me the ability to finish this event, which is incredibly unfortunate.

I could only use epics, VR etc in early rounds, past gate 2 I think legendary and heroics only even with auto select

Post count: 391Reputation: 149Joined:@stark My dragons seemed reasonably smart. If the one that was up could crit an enemy, they would normally do so. And if I'd picked a target, they would normally use their most effective attack against that target. I can't say for sure it was 100%, but it was close. Seemed like they were using essentially the same AI as opponents in the leagues/quests/arenas, picking their best attack if they were up but with no possibility to switch. At worst they were picking a random target and using their best attack against that one, even if they could crit another target.
And from a programming parsimony perspective, that's what I would expect SP to implement - no need to put in the work to create a dumber AI for this when they already have a perfectly serviceable implementation. Even if they do pick random targets, that could just be argued as granting an advantage to those players sufficiently on-the-ball to direct individual targets for each attack. Which I was not, I will admit.
I specifically never saw one pick a weak attack, much less an immune one.

Post count: 100Reputation: 27Joined:Location: Indiana, USA@scott-clark Do you remember if they picked the highest power attack if both were equally "effective" - that is, they would pick a 1500 power attack over a 1050 attack if both attacks were neutral? Mine were not doing this and it was very frustrating because I put time into training those attacks up.

Post count: 391Reputation: 149Joined:@ratless I have no specific data on or recollection of that, but neither do I have any specific recollection otherwise - and for my top dragons, I'm sufficiently familiar with the attack powers of their different moves that I probably would have noticed.
Not that differing attack power makes THAT much of a difference, of course. A 2100 and a 1200 actually vary by something under 10% in their expected damage AFAICT. It's absolutely not linear with the listed attack power, though I've never bothered to look for whether the specific formula is published.
