Talk:Dragon Rarity Guide

By any chance, what are the specific rarities of Blunas, Nocturnes, and Canopy Dragons? And are Electrics Extremely, Very, or Moderately common?

i know tj compaired them to waters so i believe in the very common as for blunas i believe in the uncommon is the best place, i will put them there and see what people think Votehim 01:33, March 10, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I also saw TJ comparing them to Water dragons so I assume they would be moderately (maybe even very) common. Nocturnes and Canopies would be put under moderately common as well. And I agreed with Blun's being uncommon =) Bluesonic1 09:02, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

Rarity of Day Glory or Night Glory Drakes
I don't see the Day Glory or Night Glory Drakes on this list, and wondered how they currently rank.A little dragon girl 16:34, October 15, 2010 (UTC)

That's already fixed by somebody, they're under 'very common', though I think more suitable is 'common'. Yarrowpelt 08:19, August 16, 2011 (UTC)

Article improvement
This article really needs improvements. I will spend a little time adding every dragon species and adding an 'Only Obtainable Through Breeding' section.


 * "Only obtainable through breeding" does NOT deserve a special section on this page. It is very safe to say that Shallow Waters are more common than Alt Vines, and both are only obtainable through breeding. If you want, you can put an asterisk or something by species that are breed-only, but please do not put them in a separate section. SH172 17:16, April 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * I agree with SH, this page is to show rarity, not means by which to obtain, that's already in Dragon types.
 * Although I do agree, this page could use a good updating. (I'd offer to help but i'm not active enough in-cave to know the current rarity standing.) Votehim 19:24, April 17, 2011 (UTC)

Missing Types
Starting a new topic for missing types.

As far as I can recall, these are the ones who aren't listed yet: Coastal Waverunner (MC), Ember (MC/U), Glory Drakes (MC/U), Harvest (MC/U), Flamingo Wyvern (MC), Pillow (MC), Ridgewing (MC/U), Shallow Water (U, breeding only), Spitfire (MC/U), Swallowtail (MC), Terrae (MC).

I pre-labeled them according to what I think of their rarity, but I'm not really sure about it. Kumiholim 16:33, April 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm more active in-cave than Votehim is, so I'll offer my advice. Flamingos and Harvests I'd say are Very Common, I se them in both the AP and the cave at least once or twice an hour. Glory Drakes are maybe uncommon, and all the others you have marked as MC or MC/U I'd say are MC. Purple ridgewings are MC, Tan ridgewings are U. SH172 23:27, April 22, 2011 (UTC)
 * Right, thanks! I really wouldn't know, so I guess every opinion counts. As for Flamingoes and Harvests, I don't see them as often as Balloons, Neotropicals or Water, which are listed under Very Common as well. But I'm not that much of a hunter, so I'd rather stick to what you say. :P Kumiholim 01:03, April 23, 2011 (UTC)
 * Just mentioning, be careful with checking the AP for the rarity, for instance, right now the AP is full of magis, which I haven't seen since before the BSA was annonced. And when Black stripes were released there were solid rows of blacks when usually there are only four or five. Votehim 03:00, April 23, 2011 (UTC)

I've notice that on the dragon's page it would say "common" but on here on the rarity guide it would say "uncommon" for that same dragon breed.

I can't remember all of the ones I've noticed but the flamingos were one, and ridgewings were another.

There are some unobtainable missing: pancakestake, <3, XD just to name some. And maybe state CB tinsel raffle/contest.

Some of the rarities are waaaayyy out of whack, in my opinion. I see seawyrm pymies multiple times every hour, yet they are 'rare'. Seasonals get snatched up immediately yet they are under 'common'. These are just two examples but some of the other species don't fit either. Is it okay for any random person (like me) to put them under a more appropriate classification?

 * Yup, the list is pretty outdated. If you feel up to it, feel free to update the rarity of the dragons to their current state.

I Have Fixed the dragons that were located under the wrong heading!
I have changed all the dragons that were located under the wrong sections. So now they should all match what their rarity is on their pages. As in if a dragon is common and it was located under rare. There was quite a few so hopefull they are all good! :)

Cleaned it up a bit.
I checked the rarity of all the dragons listed in Dragon Types and moved those in the article accordingly. Added several that were missing. Cleaned up the links and compulsively changed all links from plural to singular.

Striped, Seasonal, and Red Dorsals are labeled as Very Uncommon in their species' pages because of the methods for obtaining their variants, but I left them with the rest of the uncommons instead of making a new category anyway. Although, as the Commons and Rares have their own Very Commons and Very Rares, I imagine somebody is free to categorize those dragons in a Very Uncommon category if they feel it's necessary.

The Holiday Dragon list literally listed all Halloween and Valentine's Dragons as 'Moderately Rare', and all Christmas Dragons as Common aside from the Holly, which is 'Extremely Rare'. I removed their individual rarities in place for the time of year they appear, and left note for Hollies being still Extremely Rare and Vampires obtainable thoughout the entire year. I think that the sheer fact that holiday dragons are found only during the holidays explains that they are rare enough.

Hope I helped. 68.119.1.252 09:15, February 1, 2013 (UTC)

On updating this page...
...shouldn't we just match this with which egg is which? i believe that that page is a pretty good rarity guide.

Holiday Dragons
I'm kind of new to this but can, for example, I get any halloween dragon on halloween? Even if it was from a different year? The Cavern Lurker dragon is from 2012 but can I still get it this halloween? Do the dates just say when it was released?JayTayJay (talk) 12:52, March 20, 2014 (UTC)JayTayJay


 * Hy there JayTayJay, yes you can get Halloween dragons from previous years. But only bred ones, since the cave borns (a dragon which no parents listed on its view page) can only be obtained the year they were released. If you're trying to get some of the old Halloween dragons you should stalk the Abandoned Page about one week before Halloween since their breeding time starts around this time. greez Nyastara  (Talk)  15:25, March 20, 2014 (UTC)
