@amogh-sai if you're in master 2 arenas then you are allowed heroics. I'm not sure why you are complaining about not using them?
And there are skip fight options, so you can avoid those highly empowered teams.

I also missed out on the gems.

@jimmbo-slice
You've tried 150 times for that 5x1% chance at a heroic dragon for 100 gems offer?
Did you have 15000 spare gems to use () or did you use the same few gems over and over?
Myself, I have been playing for 2.5 years and am level 100 with 812 dragons. I am largely free to play but am no newbie.
So I assume that many events, like the breeding islands and this offer, are set up like those maze islands with the hidden gem stash, where we all have a different number of squares to open before we get the gems. I think we all each have a different number of of tries assigned to our account at the start of the event, which doesn't change, and some are lucky and have a small number while others have a big number that is too expensive to attain the prize with.
I unfortunately did not get any gems in the freebies, despite spinning 3 times each day. This might also be tied to an assigned number, don't know except I'm an unlucky one.

You keep playing league 400 over and over.

@jimmbo-slice why do you think that because you tried 14 times and didn't get a heroic, that it is a scam? There are 5 x 1% chances, which is 1 in 20. You'd expect to try 20 times on average to get 1 heroic, getting it in just 14 tries is lucky, not a scam.

@amogh-sai
Oh well you can understand why I didn't make that connection considering this topic is for the maze island.

This comment makes no sense now!

@amogh-sai
You got a heroic dragon from a chest on this island? What path was it on? And does everyone get the same dragon?

@nynaevelan
I always stop between 12000 and 13000 when I hit master 3 and just do enough to stay there until the next season. I still get reset to master 1 like everyone else.
But are you saying that some in master 3 don't get reset to 1 but keep on in 2 or 3 for some reason?

@Nynaevelan Well I have the sanctuary going fulltime with supersonic but the tree and mountain are used for races and breeding events when needed, and Kratus when not. It will be a while before Kratus is done, but I don't know what to empower after that, nothing really seems worthwhile. Will probably do nature and electric for kicks

I will be completely ignoring the rescue aside from what I can get from quests and freebies. I already have ozone and don't want to waste token on that path just for keys. And I really want archaic so that is my ultimate goal. Once I get that I will go back to finish another path, if I can.
