The Race Is On! As this is the last Heroic Dragon for the Second Heroic Collection, get ready to race in Heaven for the High Celestial Dragon which contains the elements Pure, Legendary, Light and Terra.

Race will run for 11 days (from February 8 to 19). Please refer to this post for the official announcement and the Rewards including the High Entity Dragon from the previous race -- https://forums.socialpointgames.com/topic/5393/heroic-race-heaven-more-special-rewards-balancing-improvements

For the complete guide for the Laps, Nodes and Pool times, check out the Webpage — (just replace the word “dot” with an actual dot) - dragoncityguide(dot)net/heroic-races-high-celestial/

BASIC TIPS:

• For Breeding: Breed Terra and Terra (fastest combination) or Terra and Flame with as Level 4 parents.

• For Hatching: Breed any combination above. Hatch and place on a Habitat. You can buy Terra or Flame eggs from the Shop and place it on the Hatchery. Just make sure you place it on a Habitat. Some players reported that placing on the Dragonarium also works.

• For Feeding: Feed one of the Dragons you just hatched and feed it to Level 7, then sell.

• For Food: Grow Backyard Gardner, the cheapest food to farm and collect after 30 seconds. Repeat this until you have collected the maximum required number you need.

• For Gold: Collect the gold and based it only on the maximum required number you need for the Node so you will have enough gold to collect if the next Node requires it.

• For PVP (or League Battles): Fight only the number required for the Node. It also helps to plan ahead how many Battles are required on the next Node that has PVP

• For Fight (or Dragon Encounters): Make sure you will use a Dragon with good defense and strong attack as listed on the guide.

REMINDERS:

• There are Pools and Wait time in race requirements so make sure you check the guide and do you own strategy before starting a Node to maximize your time and resources.

• To ensure that your progress will be saved visit a neighbor and return back to your city before you exit the game.

• The animation of the race has a time delay due to the different time zone of your opponent or the game servers. So, if you see a racer that dashed off around the track for some Laps, do not immediately label him a “hacker”.

• Use the Spins wisely to complete a Node. Remember that if you are only lacking one item and you received more than 1 on the Spin, the balance will not flow over to the next Node.

• Use your Gems wisely to complete a Node. If there are more than 1 requirement on a Node, try to finish one or 2 of the requirements first before you use your gems. You will notice that the gem requirement to skip a Node will decrease considerably.

• If you really think that the racer is a hacker, please report it directly to the support link within the game. Provide as much details as possible to the Customer Service so it will be reviewed properly. It is helpful to screenshot both pages of your race (showing the actual race track and the Rankings and Player Names)

Good luck, Racers!!!

@terrencedg You should add this: !!!!! POOLS START AT 4.3!!!!!
!!!! Lap 10 doesn`t repeat. The guide goes until lap 51.5!!!!
!!!! Bad waiting times: for example 88 hours in 10.5!!!!

I have it. Reload and check again.

another *********

I can't say what are the wait times for the fights but if I get the times from the last race (10 minutes for laps 1-6, 20 min for 7-9, 2 hours for 10+) the total time required to reach lap 15 is 443 hours. This should be longer because on lap 2 node 5 the wait time for the last battle is 1:40 hours, and to skip it the greedy game wants 4 gems. Excellent job, SP, just like you like to do it. I was right to not believe the January race would set the future course for those events.

For lap 12 the time is 304 hours - still much more than the actual time of the event. Why are there 50 laps? Someone is the idiot here but are the designers of the race or the players?

Moving next to little annoyances of life - the race island is on top of the sanctuary (in Android). Clicking on the island is actually clicking on the sanctuary. I have to use the side bar but it is still annoying.

@Pounawea This race is another disaster after the December one. I am going to censor myself and stop here.

(Edited for language. Please review the FORUM RULES AND GUIDELINES before posting again)

Sigh. Last race was just an anomaly. Even the breed / hatch grind seems to be taking longer. And the buy outs seem really high as well. Last time we were buying out early modes for one gem. I’ll merrily buy gems for a fun easy race. I’ll just not get this heroic if it’s five gems for lap one.

But that last race was so much fun! I don’t have time for hours of racing this month, too many meetings where pulling a laptop out to click colourful dragons would be reported to my manager.

@Bettina-Löffler lap 51? Good lord

45 minutes of breeding and hatching terras - 0 roses, 0 laurel wreaths

What does 1% for breeding and hatching mean?

This is my run-down based on the guide.

1. The guide has listed requirements up to Lap 51.

2. There is already a pool at Lap 4 Node 3. A few pools and short waiting time on Laps 5 and 6. But the real and longer pools waiting time starts at Lap 7 Node 1.

3. PVP (League Battle) at earlier nodes only requires 1 win only.

• But when you reach Lap 7 Node 5, it requires 6 wins.

• From Lap 21 Node 4 requires 15 wins and this occurs in 24 nodes in total until Lap 49 Node 4.

• While Lap 51 Node 4 requires 18 wins.

• PVP requirement for all the 51 Laps appears 43 times.

4. The most Breeding and Hatching requirement I saw is 8 and this appears 6 times. There were also a bunch of 4 and 6 required breed and hatch.

5. Race Fight or Encounters are quite a lot as it appear 91 times for the whole race.

• 8 times for the whole race that we will have to Fight 15 Dragons in one Node, this is the maximum number of Fights, one at Lap 10 Node 2 and then, the same set of 15 Dragons repeatedly used starting at Lap 20 Node 3.

• 19 times with Fight against 12 Dragons.
  Lap 9 Node 4 has 10 Encounters.

• 4 times with 8 Encounters staring with Lap 6 Node 2
  2

• times with 7 Encounters at Lap 5 Node 4 and Lap 9 Node 5

• 2 times with, 6 Encounters at Lap 7 Node 3 and Lap 9 Node 2

• 28 times with 5 Encounters starting at Lap 2 Node 5.

• Lap 1 Node 5 has 4 Encounters

• Lap 6 Node 3 has 3 Encounters

• Lastly, there are Fight against only one Dragon and that is against High Celestial and this occurs 25 times.

6. The longest Wait time for Pools (I think, even in the history of all Dragon City Heroic Races) is 88 hours at Lap 10 Node 5.

May the odds be with you.

I think I’m just gonna qualify for this one & take a break. No way am I gonna stress myself out on this one.

Which sucks as I need high entity for my heroics collection.

If I sell an egg, can the flower still come out? It does when I use facebook gameroom, but I havent confirmed this using android (tablet or phone)

I bet that after the last race, just too many people reached lap 15 and/or called it 'doable'. That just may be like a red flag...

But we'll see. Looks like only ONE is gonna get it this time. May the best insomniac win...

It means you'll grow a beard while trying to breed or hatch an egg that counts. I dunno if you're a girl or a guy but it will happen either way.

A 1% chance is only the average...

That is in fact a very good question, but it just takes too long to test it. Maybe someone HAS indeed tested it...

I tried for 2 hours breeding and hatching terras for roses or laurel wreaths and i got nothing and im only on lap 3 node 5. I cant really be the only one.. And i dont want to spend a ton of gems.

It looks like people are having the same problems as me...
lap 3 node 3 I spent 15 min and got nothing...thankfully I hadn't used my spin and got a lucky spin of 5 things.
lap 3 node 5. ****** the only eggs hatched which counted was one very rare and one epic that i had sitting in the hatchery(lets say i was trying to save them till a later node...but after 36 terra hatchings and 12 terra/fire hatchings i gave up and used them)
the breeding was even worse...56 terra/terra and 12 terra/fire= 1 laurel...idk how many more breedings i did until i gave up and gemd the last one...
lap 4 node 1...3 breedings...saving that for later...

Last race was easy...this race looks easy...but isn't...reminds me of the frozen lake race for the high snow but with less things to do...but a less chance of getting them

kinda sad...I was looking forward to getting high celestial and the high entity dragons...idk maybe i will...2nd place looks like they gave up at lap 3 node 3(the first node with 2 breeding/hatchings)

I wish SP just keep the races the same style as the high octane and the ones before...fun and doable

Where did you guys find the guid at? Can someone share the link please?

Me too. I was trying more than 80 breed/hatch Terra-Terra and didn't get any laurel/rose.
Does anybody know if the Terra-Terra combination is still working for that?
Thanx.

This does only work on PC.

@terrencedg 88 hours waiting in lap 10.5?

@Pounawea what has the SP Team done with the polling after last High Portal Race? This HR is even more dificult than the December one.
I'm very very dissapointed with the way SP treats their players. It's a really pity.

I stuck at 3.3. Many of us do so. I wont spend gems for speed up. I have not the time to tap for hours for this game. I have a house to clean, a family to feed and other real life stuff. That is too much. I will try tomorrow again.

lol...dont worry about lap 10.5, QUALIFY first...thats my main goal right now...but if i do make it that far without dying ill just save a spin an hope ill get lucky...
but seriously...the only reason why SP did it was to make people spend a bizzilion gems...its just another pay to win games...oh well...hopefully i dont have to spend all my gems(and time) to get the high celestial

Do terra-terra breedings work for anyone??? I've done about 120 of them (mountain+tree, 20 minutes, ~3 breedings/minute) and not a single trophy.

With the wait times listed in higher laps, I have but one question.

IS SOCIALPOINT OUT OF ITS MIND AGAIN???

Edit: language please, per forum rules.

I think I'm gonna give up, this race is trash. I had to use gems to skip over lap 3 node 3, only to be stuck again on lap 3 node 5, simply cause laurels and roses never come out even after 100 tries. Terrible race

Mostly inactive racers :D! Probably my luck. Just going to lap 5 and checking maybe once every day. Or just sleep until happy inferno comes on 19th. Hopefully they won't make every heroic race from this one onwards a disaster- I only have high purity and octane.

One thing that doesn't make sense is even if we have the guide, the post of @Pounawea @Community-Managers here - https://forums.socialpointgames.com/topic/5393/heroic-race-heaven-more-special-rewards-balancing-improvements and the announcement banner in the game, are both mentioning Rewards until Lap 20. Does it mean that no rewards after Lap 20?

Oh I was going to complain about 25 ateemps with only one breed, but I see it get much worse. Hard pass then, I hAve other heroics I can use for battles.

@terrencedg
good luck getting to lap 20...or even 15 for that matter...the way most people are going at it...u'll be lucky if u even get to lap 12

Do they care? I am sure they received mostly positive feedback on the last race and did exactly the opposite in this one.

So here is my feedback: *****

(Edited for language)

@Bettina-Löffler I'm stuck at lap 3.3 too.
I gave up after 140 tries of breed/hatch with Terra-Terra (my #1 is at 6.3, incredible "gemier").

The rewards for the race are pretty terrible last race the lap 20 reward was an epic card pack this race ut is 1 single legendary dragon orb in the tree of life pure garbage

Is the feasible to be on Lap 16 only 9 hours into the race?

It's annoying to be stuck in Lap 3, when the #1 has gemmed to Lap 16.

What's the estimated gem cost to get to Lap 16 after 9 hours? Is the player a hacker? Should I report?

Thanks for any advice or info!

I dont thinks theres any way to get that far unless your hacking or have spent a few hundred dollars

I had just enough gems to qualify myself

I am not a fan of the supposed "improvements" that are in the new race at all i am also not a fan of the garbage rewards

There are people that have much money and no idea what to spend on. So they are using it to buy many gems. If you want to be sure that it is not a hacker you can ask the support to check.

well...no luck for the lap 4 node 1 breedings...#2 and #3 are still stuck on lap 3 node 3
going to game normally from now on...got the tree going with the tiger/orange for the Ra, and the mountain and sanctuary breeding to finish the breedable collections. Going to check it tomorrow...hopefully those breedings will count

@Bettina-Löffler
I am about 400 breeding/hatching into lap 3.3 and nothing to show.

The only flower I got was from my daily spin.

Any word from the developer? Is this working as intended?

Also stuck on 3.3 I got the 2 breeding laurels but the hatching flowers just aren't dropping.
Do we still get the new H dragon if we reach lap 15? What is the point of spelling out 50 laps? And WTH is up with that 88hour node?? Seems completely bonkers!

Think there is a problem with those breeding/hatching nodes on lap 3. Must admit I just gave up on those and used gems...

Now on lap 7 and it’s been ok so far. Only one other racer in my group has got past lap 3 so far. Hoping I don’t have to get to lap 15.

Well lap four node one just tried in my break for breedings and after 30 didn’t get one. So, I just need to squeak to qualifying for the gems then I think I’ll take the race off. It’s not fun to keep hitting the same button over and over. And I have other fun games SP.

So much for them listening to our feedback. I'd just about guarantee that the last race got rave reviews - but did they listen - NO!!! Back to lots of breeding & hatching, long wait times and low pools.

This will NOT be fun. I want the High Celestial but I have all the other dragons already. Not sure how much time I want to waste on this race.

This was a painful first day something tells me they brought back all the breedings and hatching because people voted against all the fights in the survey. Why couldn't they add more feedings or farming? I paid 3.3 and now on 7.3. Since I am second, lap 15 it is. I need this dragon tho finish the collection so no quitting for me.

The guide is updated. I think SP only changed 10.5.

I loved all the fights in the last race. Made you feel like you were making progress. So much better than spending hours breeding/hatching one minute dragons hoping for it to count.

Day one & I already hate this race. Day one last race I was having fun & liking the race.

Well stubborn as I am, I refused to use gems to finish 3.3, and though it took a few hours of semi constant play, I finally got those 2 hatching blossoms. SP really doesn't understand how to keep its players content for these races, do they? I'm sort of hoping this is the last one.

Really hating 3.3, but i know i can pass it soon enough, and hopefully get to 12, everyone else is still on lap 1, so they most likely dont play a lot.
