It's likely been brought up before, but I'd like to bring it up again with some insight on hows and whats. A long time ago, back in closed/open beta, Runewaker made an attempt to bring the similar Dungeon Ancient mechanic to the larger raid styled dungeons. At the current patch, the level cap was 60, and the available raids were Dunar Temple, Accursed Tower and Juno Crystal Gallery. At the same time flutes existed, and upon using them people chanced upon some unusal spawns.

These were Indigo Flame, Emerald Crystal, Jade Soul (and Ebony Thorn, but has since been patched out), Diamond Bulwark, Scarlet Flame. Within time, each dragon was determined to be spawns of particular dungeons, like how Indigo Flame belongs to Puretia's dungeons, should you have either the luck or the endurance to run multiple times.

With digging some flavourtext by Infernium, as well as translations provided in game by the dragon compendium Diamond Bulwark, Scarlet Flame and Vibrant Thunder were intended to be located in Juno, Accursed Tower and Dunar Temple respectively.



It was mentioned multiple times that the lines that would trigger the spawn do exist, but in their current form don't work. I don't know if this was a flaw due to removing the extreme difficulty setting, or the fact that the dungeon has more rule modifiers than a normal instance, but Runewaker never looked at implementing dungeon ancients again and never did for the following level cap raids.

The proposal I have is that, not only re-implement these raid ancients, but use it as an oppotunity to offer a 'cookie'. People run Racman's Grotto, Dragon Heart Temple and Dunar Temple a lot. To see either new or pre-existing dragons within these instances in some form would give variation to a long series of runs as well as offer something new that couldn't just be handed out with eggs.

The 'cookie' also gives an oppotunity to run other dungeons a lot. Sometimes, I get a little tierd of seeing the dragon-gambling casino halls of Corzine again and again and again, so sometimes I'll switch regions to grind my ancients, loot and what-have-yous to keep the scenery and content fresh. Besides the Flameheart Amulet, no one is going to likely wander into Iron Fang Fortress again for anything other than glamour. There's probably stats on instance usage somewhere.

There are issues with this system. It's easy to just suggest things, the marathon is the implementation. There was a solid reason in the mess of code why Raid ancients never worked in the first place, and I imagine it would take a deal of sleuthing and testing a mechanic that seems, on the outside, very simple to function. Another issue is that raid dungeons are a deal longer than your regular dungeon fair. Implementing the same point system into a raid and not factoring the extra minutes it takes to complete them (We're looking at 10 minutes per run on DHT compared to a 2 minute run of Bloodstone Citadel) and the grind burnout would be pretty real. Raid ancients could benefit from the same flat spawn rate as regular dungeon ancient encounters but with only half the point total required. Or you could factor the third difficulty in Methus/IFF. Again, another tricky trinket that needs fine-tuning.


So outside Juno Crystal Gallery, Accursed Tower and Dunar Tower, what goes where? It's up to opinion honestly. But I'm sure you've ran through Dragon Heart Temple and thought:- Man, Obsidian Thunder is a neat dragon I want him on my team, but then you try and press the capture when you spot this unique ancient in the dungeon and just frown. But what if, upon killing Urukar Hexclaw, you had a chance, or with enough dedication to multiple runs, a guaranteed chance at him? I'm sure there's also dragons in Runewaker's library that go unused in some manner, or could be converted into a capturable format.

So what else? Besides dungeon ancients in raids being a tiny cookie to help them push forward a bit more without the 'It's in eggs, so I don't need to run ancients.' It brings back some of the more classic grind to Dragon's Prophet, because to be honest, without it, the grind solely lies with getting loot, extracting it for recipes and crafting. I'd rather have both accompanying me at least, because at the heart of it all, Dragon's Prophet is a pokemon collectathon game too.

Standing around for hours on end in an egg circle just waiting and hoping that your egg gets enough cares to reach max stats just simply isn't enjoyable. You can't really play the game when yer stuck holding eggs, which in turn detracts from the overall enjoyment of the game. The situation with eggs in nests isn't much better, because unless you have a lot of regular dancers, it's going to be difficult to get them maxed there as well.

That said, I think it would be interesting if there were special items that you could collect and use on an egg to 'help make it stronger' by filling a little bit of its stat meter, similar to how caring works. This item could potentially be a drop from dungeon bosses, world bosses, hidden in special locations throughout the zone, maybe even have special PEs or bosses you could fight to obtain it. This would effectively give you the option to actually play the game with something to work towards, while still being able to help improve the stats of your egg.

I'm here because HeroineDP on twitch kept streaming Dragon's Prophet. It looked fun and dragons.

For some reason the thread tag is wrong, should be a suggestion.

When Runewaker added Treasure Hunts, they were severely imbalanced. Quests designed as a weekly achievement deemed impossible to clear in the week due to the immense and unrealistic grind by a handful of the quests. Caromund's Treasure? The only RNG you dealt with was road quests at night, at the rates were fine. Dog Star Pages? Also fine, you just had to hunt out Remnant Moon merchants. Barbarossa's treasure is a fairly fun one, wandering into Corzine to spawn the dungeon rare was a fun task. However, the imbalance lied with the last few quests.

Now, with this server and Lundhal's treasure, thanks to how it deals with the PE completion in the territory war zone, it always guarantees the final piece, no matter what. So in a sense, that problem was fixed with adeptgamer's server. A once, very tedious quest, was placed more in line with the reasonable weekly grind that the Babarossa's, Dog Star and Caromunds also follow.

Now, the only two outlier quests are Azores and Severites. Runewaker thought it was an excellent idea to hide Severite Treasure fragments on glowing mobs. Spawning these is a grind in itself, you have a roughly one in 10 chance of spawning one, and they are fairly spread in number across the map. The second RNG wall, is the drop itself, and on NA server, this took me 6 months of on and off grinding to complete. That... doesn't sound like a weekly quest to me. I don't know if the drop rate was a slip up or someone in the RW offices felt horribly devilish that afternoon. What's more, you also need 4 of these Severite pieces in order to complete the quest. That seems... unreasonable. The enemies that need to be killed are Stone Eye Witch Doctors (Puretia), Blood Stone Guards (Alentia), Steelsnarl Fighters (Korhala) and the third Palace of Methus Boss (His drop feels far more reasonable, for whatever reason.)

Azores isn't as severe as Severite, but the quest itself is safeguarded by a very high entry toll so the difficulty for the first stage is needless. The drop needs to be boosted, everything else does not. We're already paying 300 Kindred Insignias, 3000 Adventurer Insignias and 3000 Dragon Shells (Yes those shop shells, it's a good shell sink.) in order to complete it.

Anyway, that's about all. I really hope I can, for once, see the weekly treasure hunt complete, because if I'm not mistaken I don't remember anyone who's ever done all of them consistantly per week.

I'm getting there, but the in-game menu and shortcut tutorials aren't perfect. Had to google to find out the shortcut for combining shards.
Getting the hang of it though.

Hello, I feel that what could really make this version shine, would be introducing the soul gaze system that gamigo currently has in their dragon prophet game version, called savage hunt. This system, gives people a small chance (probably around 10-40% depending on dungeon), of the dungeon boss dropping an item called a soul gaze. This item when used reveals a hidden giant egg that can be collected in the boss room by only the person who used the soul gaze (also if not used, the soul gaze dissapears from inventory upon exiting the dungeon). This egg gives one of usually 5 different cash shop dragons, each dungeon having a different static set of 5 in them except for the first beginning dungeon (consus cave only having 1, brimstone glow). This system made their version very fun to play, giving it a pokemon vibe, collecting all the cool dragon models and working hard to earn one rather than just buying one outright. I feel that implimenting the system on this version, besides excluding maybe a few cash dragons from it, or creating new skins of dragons to sell in cash shop instead, would make the game feel fresh and exciting. It would also elevate this version of Dragons Prophet to the overall superior version in all sense of the word, pricing, gaming experience, community, etc. & it would attract over the majority of the players who went to savage hunt specifically for the new soul gaze system.

This is just a suggestion but I feel it could really make this version extremely popular and bring a larger influx of new players into it. & as you know, happy players are more likely to spend money on the version they enjoy, especially for simple things like cosmetics/costumes or perfecting their favorite dragon.

Hi I hope I am posting this in the right place lol

I would just like to ask if the Valentines day items will be on market to buy as I have been waiting on it for the two teddy bears (Girl teddy) and (Boy teddy), I had them on EU and would love to have them here

It's been too long ;-;

I was thinking maybe people would like to show off the shirts they bought or other accessories such as mugs from the shop. Sometimes it's hard to judge what the product will look like from the stock images so why not show off your merch here!

I'll start with the FroYo shirt I just got in the mail the other day, I chose a light blue for the shirt color because I thought it went well with the blue accents on the dragon. The print is nice and clear, vibrant, and silky smooth!



I also apologize for the horrible cell phone camera.

To celebrate the Holiday season we will be having a 50% Bonus Diamond sale starting tonight and ending on the day after New Years at 11:59.

You can purchase Diamonds for Dragon's Prophet here.

Would it be possible to maybe enable a choice as to whether or not we get the skills learned notifications popping up on screen? When swapping masteries all the notifications are quite distracting and it's just unnecessary graphics for my gpu to process.

Crossing fingers

We will be having a GM event on Baerton Starguard (B11) this Saturday at 4PM PST. Any players on the island at the completion of the event will be eligible for the event reward.

Because we are likely going to see an influx of players in the immediate future I thought it would be a good idea to preview some of what we've been working on behind the scenes.

Concept Art

One of the biggest tasks that we have been working on has been expanding upon the concept art we'll have available when we finish our update. We have been working with @22RII, @Vipera, @Theluji and @heminyx to create new model concepts and some recolors of existing dragon models. These are some of the ones that are finished, but there are many more ideas that we will be working on in the future.

Amhuinn, Protector of Travelers

Called the Protector of Travelers, Amhuinn is known to save travelers who are lost in the woods. The vines and flowers that grow from its body are considered a panacea able to cure all wounds and ailments, making it widely sought after. While Amhuinn is usually docile and gentle when attacked it will retaliate with it's overwhelming strength.

Falkor, the Wish Dragon

Extremely wise and kind, Falkor is among the friendliest and most dignified of dragons. Sought after due to it's innate ability to increase luck of those it bonds with, Falkor is also a strong fighter and capable of holding its own against the best.

Yuletide Joy, the Festive Snoozyfloof

This emerald green and scarlet dragon is seen only during the Osiran midwinter festivities, assisting Karuna and Randolph in delivering presents. With its warm and joyful smile it spreads happiness and merriment to all it blesses with its gifts and presence. It is often heard at twilight singing endearing songs about the Osira and their bond with dragonkind.

Ivory Shadow, the Hidden Watcher

This dragon is deceptively difficult to spot, able to hide practically in plain sight even with it's bright coloring. With highly sensitive senses even when spotted it is extremely difficult to approach without being detected. When it is threatened Ivory Shadow is particularly nasty, protecting himself and any he has bonded with.

Arsir, the Scarlet Dragolich

Arsir, the more violent of the Dragolich siblings is permanently stained with the blood of it's victims. Prone to attacking without cause or reason, many travelers have lost their lives at the claws of this dragon. As cruel as it is strong, this dragon is one to be wary of, and best avoided if possible.

Imri, the Azure Dragolich

Imri, the less violent but more intelligent of the Dragolich siblings. Extremely skilled in the use of magic, this dragon's strength lies in it's intelligence, cunning and sheer force of will. While not as cruel as it's sibling, when angered there is no saving the cause of their ire.

Pegasus Model

New model based off of Mythical dragons. Most of these will be available in the wild to be captured, with a few exclusive to the marketplace or dungeons.

Faceted Dragons

A new variation of existing models, Faceted dragons will be more ornate dragons studded with gems.

You can see all of the concepts we have posted publicly here: Dragon's Prophet Concept Art

Merchandise

While not exactly dealing with content creation, we have also been working with our illustrators to come up with new merchandise to make available to players who are interested. The majority of merchandise is of existing dragons, while a few will be new color variants of existing models.

Each purchase of $25 or more will also receive 500 Platinum for use in purchasing Diamonds.

You can see the available merchandise here: AdeptGamer's Merchandise | Featuring custom t-shirts, prints, and more

Research

The majority of work that we have done has been research. Researching existing mobs and mechanics, compiling data on how things work internally in the game, and discovering functionality or content that can be adjusted or expanded upon are extremely important to future updates.

To bring forth new concepts, ideas and the overall vision that we have for Dragon's Prophet will greatly rely on the research that is done by @Haterslayer, @Light and @newb. The more that we are able to learn and understand now will greatly affect future updates and the content that we can provide.

New (and old) Content

Now for the information that is most important to most players... Content!

View attachment 663

We have previewed Devouring Void previously, which is the unfinished 108 dungeon. We have recently been testing what needs to be done to get the Dungeon completely ready for release. We have also begun doing play testing to test how hard we should make the dungeon, and how we should pace it. There is a possibility that we may use the dungeon for an event so that people can see it, but it would be made up of placeholders and not completed.

For those that are nostalgic from the original beta of Dragon's Prophet, you probably fondly remember Satuma and the original introductory tutorial. Thanks to the research that has been done and the hardwork by @Light we should be able to bring both back soon after we release our source update.

Both new and old content will not be ready immediately after we release our update as we will need to fix some issues with Devouring Void, and add missing functionality and features that didn't exist back during the beta to Satuma.

Retexturing

Along with making unreleased dragons available, adding the missing Brastens to battlegrounds and expanding mechanics we will also be working on completely re-texturing all dragons. This may not be fully available with the release of our update, but we will continue to offer updates with new retextured dragons while adding new functionality and bug fixes.

In regards to previous timelines, we are a bit behind due to delays on other projects, but we will continue to keep you up to date every so often. Real updates take time, and it's best not to rush just to make a quick buck. Be assured that our primary concern is making sure that Dragon's Prophet survives a long time, and continues to grow and evolve as we develop it.

For those who wanted their ideas of a new recolor of pillow. There you go!


If you have questions, let me know!

LG RII

After you bypass 105 lvl, all the treasure hunts gets fcuked up. I can confirm that, as I try to do as many as i can weekly. You either get nothing ot just 2-3 items(usually that white one and powder, sometimes also that marketplace chest). All other items, including special orange chest with currency, gears, gorgoreus diamond etc, are gone. Everything is fine, if you are 105 lvl or lower, but if you're 106-108 lvl, you can't finish them correclty.

I never introduced myself here, so I've decided to do it lol.
I'm Theluji, but for most known as Luji, QQuji or TheQQji yeah, I have to admit, I used to whine a lot in past, and I still sometimes do, but that's just how I am.

I was playing on EU since idk November 2013, stopped in middle of 2015, right before Sitheran release. I'm quite experienced player, I discovered many things on my own, and helped for many in past as well, tho I'm not so much of a helpful type anymore due to bad experience with some people But I don't bite, if you want to ask me something, ask, If I will feel like to help with, I will help, if I don't, I don't. Simple as that.

I'm not sure if I'm going to seriously play here, I'm first going to wait to see that Savage Hunt thing, if it turns out to be bad, I will spent more time here.

For now I'm focusing on doing concept arts for this server.

Hey everyone!!!! I finally found what I have been searching for, since NA shutdown!!!! I played dragon's prophet since closed beta in na, I was one of the people to name one of the servers for the server thus winning me that cool dragon's prophet shit!! its good to be back finally. If you want to catch me in the game my ign is Risengeth!!!
