Guide Guide to hatching dragons with max stats

Ever tried to hatch a dragon and it came out with stats lower than you thought it should have had?
Then this is the guide for you!

This guide will outline what you need to know to have the highest possible chance of getting maxed stats on your hatched dragons, it is not however a guide on how to acquire or start incubation of eggs.
If you do not know how to start incubation of a dragon egg, this link will tell you what you need to know:

Dragons Prophet Wiki Egg Incubation

Now on to the guide!

First off this guide applies to both hatching eggs held by your character as well as eggs hatched in your apartment or house.
As you should know by now, when incubating an egg it has a "stat bar" on the second tab of the incubation window which tells you what the current stat bonus is.
And as you or other people care for or dance for the egg, this bar will grow a little.
And to get high stats on your dragon when it hatches, you want this bar to be as high as possible.
What a lot of people do not know though is that the remaining time left on the incubation of the egg actually affects how much this stat bar grows when the egg is cared for(or danced for)
The less time it has left, the bigger the effect of each care will be.
So the big "rule" is to never ever use a dragon remover(normal ingame ones) at the start of the incubation, but rather you want to wait until the egg gets closer to hatching.

If you do use a remover at the start of incubation, you add more time to the egg and therefore lower the effect of each care it recieves, as well as remove the ability to extend it's incubation time if it needs just a little bit more time and a few more cares to max before hatching.
Most people tend to wait until it is below 24 hours, how long you want to wait before using your first remover(s) is up to you, as only you can know whether or not you will be at your computer when the time comes.
And no one wants their egg to hatch while they are gone and possibly ruining the dragon.

When using removers, you'll also want to know how much time using them will add to your egg, as the goal here is to keep the remaining time as low as possible for as long as possible to maximize the effect of the cares it recieves and with that giving you a much better chance of having your dragon hatch with maxed stats.

So the times added by each remover are as follows:

Green - 3,5 hours (Not 100% sure on the exact time for green, but it's somewhere around there)
Blue - 12 hours
Purple - 24 hours

When using spirit powders however, the items that changes the hatch % of the different rarities, the remining time on the egg does not matter, as using them has no effect on cares recieved.
So you can use them whenever you want.

And if you use the (Enhanced) dragon removers, which can be bought in the marketplace or are sometimes VIP rewards, the remining time does not matter.
As the Enhanced removers remove dragons without adding time to the incubation.

Another thing that is very good to know is that not all dragons require their stat bar to be completely filled in order for the dragon to hatch with max stats.
Dragons generally come in 2 categories: Common and Rare.
Common dragons include ones such as Horned Specklewing Dragon, Savage Wolfwing Dragon, Verdant Predator Dragon and Gelid Sawtooth Dragon.
Generally if it has the word "dragon" in it's name it is a common dragon, there are exceptions though (Crimson Blackblood Dragon King being one of the exceptions)
Rare dragons in general include almost all of the named dragons, such as Crow Bone, Hookwing, Skitter and Blackblade.
The dragon families Fabled Ancient, Ancient, Assault, Hydra, Mythical, Ironhide, Oriental, Duskreaver and Phantom are ALL in the rare category.
As in all dragons from these families are in the rare category.
And back to the point, dragons from the rare category only need their stat bar to be filled to the second to last "pip" or dot, as dragons in the rare category recieve a bonus to their stats when hatched.
Common category dragons do not recieve this bonus, so they need a completely filled bar to max their stats.

One last thing that I want to mention in this guide is that not all dragons can be hatched with max stats(6.00/10.44)
Some common type dragons will not recieve the max stats even if their stat bar is completely filled prior to hatching.
Jade Predator Dragon being an example (from Unhatched egg of Rolling Down)
This may or may not be the case here, but on the EU server this dragon can not be hatched with max stats, and there are others as well.
Sadly I never got around to making a list of which ones that can't be maxed, but keep in mind that some common dragons can not be maxed when hatched from their default eggs.
They might be able to max if turned into an egg using an Unhatched egg restoration luquid however, but I never tested this. (Read edit section at the bottom)


Best of luck and happy hatching!

PS. This guide is based on my knowledge from the EU server, it should still be applicable here but it is no guarantee as there are some differences between the servers.


2017-06-20 Edit:
After playing on this server for a while and collecting some more knowledge here I decided to update this guide with a little more information regarding common dragons and their ability to hatch with max stats.
A lot of dragons from the common category can not achieve 10.44/6.00 stats on this server, and using an Unhatched Egg Restoration Liquid and maxing the egg will not give them the maxed stats either.

Guide Equipment sets and quick change

Hello! Making here a guide of how to make sets of equipment and change them quickly, during combat or not. This is as a pre-guide to the ones i'm about to do for some basic mastery builds for some classes that require fast switching your weapon or maybe use it to switch your normal jewelry with DI jewelry when capturing harder dragons.

Firstly, you want to open your character window ( basic "C"). In that window ,at the top right corner there are 3 small buttons. One to close the window, one to lock/unlock it so it can be dragged across your UI and the third one is "Activate Quick Change" button. You want to press the third one,and it will open a new window where you can save up to 6 sets of clothes.
DragonsProphet_20170417_125329.jpg

Click on any slot there and " Add New Set". Then with the "Assign" button you can assign your current gear to a set. At the top of the newly opened window you can also change the name of the set. All that's left is to save the changes.
DragonsProphet_20170417_125400.jpg

After doing this, you can drag the icon of the set you just saved and put it on your skill bar. Whenever you press that button, your clothes will be switched to the saved set, provided that you got those same items in your bag at the time.
DragonsProphet_20170417_125421.jpg

This is how you can quickly switch your gear, and as Dragon's Prophet doesn't require you to be out of combat to change gear, it is really useful. If you have more question about this, don't hesitate to ask.

Hope this helps^^ Good luck and good hunting!

Game Tips Dragons

Hello!
Finding out there is an input of new players with little knowledge about the game, I thought I'd make this post to help them get started a bit.

This guide will be about dragons. I won't go in depth with it, as with building a good dragon or roles. That will take too much time and i think it should be a guide by itself. What I will be explaining here is how dragons can take on the healing role, and help the player survive in dungeons or while hunting, thus making the use of potions useless.
Firstly, dragons can have heal skills (healing wind, Life recovery, Life reflux). This ones are heals that the dragon uses while summoned. So if you fight with the dragon by your side, it can heal you or itself or both, depending on the heal.
Secondly, there are Dragon Soul Skills (they are still dragon skills, but they have a purple border and always are first skills in the list of a dragon). This skills are not used by the dragon, the player having to put them on their skill bar and use them consuming their own dragon soul.( found in "K"- skills window , Dragon Soul skills). This ones are very useful for the classes that don't have their own healing skills from mastery. Also the strength of this heals is based on the attributes of the player using it and mostly scales with magic power. As a side note. Having this skills on your bar will reduce your dragon soul to 0 if changing mastery. So using mastery switch during combat will become really hard as you will loose all dragon soul each time you do.
And at last, there is mounted combat heals. This is dominated by classes as Skytouched, that has heals which scale on the magic attributes of the player ( intelligence/ dragon affinity) and aqua dragons which scale based on the physical attributes of the player (strength/ focus). This are skills that any dragon can get. All you have to do is be over level 30 and visit the Dragon Riding Skill Manager in Laedis. There you can learn the first level of the dragons skills for PvE/ PvP for free.
Using all or any of this type of heals will give players an edge in combat, and help them survive for longer.

Hope this helps^^ Good luck and good hunting

If You Have Low FPS Try This

If you got same problems as many others do in DP with low FPS and in other games your getting 30+ FPS with everything on High or even Ultra.

Then you might wanna try this.

Go to your Dragon's Prophet folder and open that, now find a file called "config.ini", open that and scroll down to where it says "[Graphics]"

Now try use these settings:

Code:
[Graphics]
DoodadDensity = 0
LockedFps = 180
ObjVisibilityFactor = 0.500000
LightingQuality = 0
SSAO = 0
DoodadDistance = 0.000000
ShadowDistance = 1
ShadowDetail = 0
UnderWater = 0.000000
WorlObjDetail = 1
SkinFX = 0
SelectionQuality = 0
Glow = 0
Bloom = 0
CloudQuality = 1
FXAA = 0
LightingDistance = 2
ViewDistanceFactor = 0.250000
VisualQuality = 3
TemporalAA = 0
WorldObjDetail = 1
SkeletonDistanceFactor = 0.000000
Anisotropy = 0
MaxTextureLOD = 0
FXQuality = 0
DoodadShaderQuality = 1
OptimalDisplayArea = 2073600.000000
DOF = 0
VSync = 0
GraphicsQuality = 7
ShaderQuality = 1
ShadowQuality = 1
TerrainShaderQuality = 1
VolumeLightQuality = 0

It might give you a boost of FPS ingame, it sure did to me

If you dont like to edit any of your files, you can also do this ingame, by setting everything down to 0 or 1, then slowly increase settings to what best for you.

I hope this will help your ingame FPS and makes you enjoy the game more.

Guide What kinds of guides are you looking for?

Hi all!

I have been getting questions from time to time asking about one thing or another. I know we are working to get more guides on the forums for people to use and help them get a better understanding of the game. As most of you know this game has so many things that are not explained as well as they should. So I just want to ask you what kind of guides are you looking for? I got some in the works, and have been working on getting the screen shots necessary to put them together.

Some that I plan on making.

Guild Guide: Just basics on how to find, start, and lvl a guild. Will also give some basic information on how to utilize the guild sanctuary and do guild bosses.

Dragon build Guide: Overall good skills to look out for on dragons. How to transfer skills from one dragon to another and what dragons are good for new players to start out with. Might combine this with dragon compendium and arena guides. Not sure yet.

Gold/Insignia Farming Guide: Easy to farm daily (blue !) quests to make the most out of the shell shop. Some options on how to get gold based on your lvl of play.

Exp/Lvling Guide: I had some easy to start out with quests in my other guide that will get you to about lvl 40. This will be my mindset on how I lvled up as well as some other options to mix things up.

Stat Transferring Guide: How to make use of the stat stones you find and how to transfer the stat from one item to another to make gear more custom to your needs.

Egg Guide: How to get and make eggs and use the ones you have. Go over the items that alter the egg and the dragons inside.

I am willing to go more in depth some some guides if anyone has a request. If you think of anything you would personally like a guide on let me know and I can see what I can do. Its also always a good idea to check the WIKI as well. Tons of information on it.

Guide New to Dragon's Prophet

As there might be new players, first time playing DP, i thought i'd drop few words as to how they can get started.

Firstly, as this server has good packages for xp orbs, with the chance to breeze trough levels 1-90 in a minute, most will be tempted to do it. But for one, i'd say not to do that. Use your first character to level up slower, pass through the story quests, do all side quests and map events. Besides offering A good way of experience and givin you more time to get used with the class you chose, at the end of it you will get few little critters you can use as pets and titles.

Make sure you get yourself at least 2 dragons. A flyer and a runner for dungeons where you can't fly in. Try capping more, makig sure they have healing skills if your class doesn't have self heals. ( dragons have skills that they use, but they also can have skills that players have to put in their bar and use by consuming their dragon soul -yellow bar under HP/ AP). This dragons can be even the ones feom starting area until you can get better.

Secondly, try joining a guild, there's an awesome comunity on this server. I'm sure anyone can find people to play with here, condidering tgere are guilds ranging in all time zones. Also, as most games, it's always more fun to play with others.

Hope this helps getting you started. More guides incoming for building dragons, attributes and gearing up.

Oracle Ideas on the Oracle class!!!

Hey everyone. I welcome any tips or ideas on playing the Oracle class.

I've heard some builds that involve the class being aimed more towards a crit play style, I'm curious what you guys think? I know it's a safe bet to go the INT route, to increase damage and what not.

But again, this is a discussion on some possible class builds that yall have come up with.

This is much appreciated! Thank you guys! :D

Guide Arid Sandstalker Dragon- Battle Exp in full

Hi all this is Haildrake AKA Torrice in game and this is a quick helper guide to Gaining Battle Exp for your Dragons.

[Preface]: So a while back some guild members where helping me try to tame Typhoon, the Dungeon rare, in Aymori Sands. While looking for him, we ran around and kept spawning the Arid Sandstalker dragon and for about half an hour kept perma-spawning these beasts. 30 min go by and typhoon doesn't come out but a plethora of dead dragons on the floor and Tons of Battle Exp for our dragons. Which leads me to the main meat of why your reading this post ==>

[Gathering the Battle exp]: So in Aymori Sands the mechanic that allows you to spawn endless amounts of Arid Sandstalker dragons hiding in the sand dunes is called Parasite Pore. You obtain this status when you run thru the Mushrooms in the dungeon. It will last for 10 sec and have roughly a ~1 second waiting period before it can cling onto your character again. When active all a player needs to do is, run around a bit and the dragons will spawn from the dunes the. Kill them and repeat the process.

(When I did this with my guild mates we were all level 108 and each dragon killed gain 5768 [exp amount before VIP bounses] battle exp and were inside for 30 minutes. One member didn't convert any points till we came out and was able to gain 1.2 mil and change in Battle Exp for his dragon.)
(

[Quick Tips]:
  • 1) Parasite pores causes you harm - It is infinitesimal in the amount of damage it does but it should be noted that it still can hurt you with a tiny explosion
  • 2) Running thru a Mushroom does not guarantee a pore - Running though the mushrooms is the only way to get them but be ready for a lot of movement because they don't give you a pore every time.
  • 3) The first pop counts - If you are running this dungeon with the same intent I had to get Typhoon then know that it will come out only the first spawn (which I'm calling a pop, since they pop out) of the dune. If the dragon does not come out then you gotta reset. (Wiki link for pics and location: Typhoon & Aymori Sands )
  • 4) More people = More Exp - The more people you have in the dungeon the faster and more dragons you all can kill for battle exp. Also as a bonus note for typhoon, ALL PLAYERS IN DUNGEON CAN SPAWN HIM ON FIRST POP. Meaning that if you have 5 people you have 5 chances of getting him to crawl out.
  • 5) Arid Sandstalkers can stagger - Be very careful when fighting these dragons in massive groups because they have a chance to stagger you while attacking which will lock you from using any skills and your health can drop to zero in a heart beat.
So that's all folks! Thanks for reading I hope to find and make more discoveries to help enhance your dragonic escapades.

Would you be interested in Dragon's Prophet t-shirts?

Should AdeptGamer sell shirts?

  • Yes

    Votes: 5 38.5%
  • No

    Votes: 1 7.7%
  • Maybe, but depends on the cost

    Votes: 7 53.8%

This is a continuation of the Commissioned Artwork thread (http://community.adeptgamer.com/threads/commissioned-artwork-ideas.418/), and to see whether or not people would be interested in t-shirts (or other merchandise) with commissioned Dragon's Prophet art on it.

As stated previously, we have already gotten approval from 22Rii (at least tentatively, actual details need to be discussed) that we can sell merchandise with the art we commission.

Currently our thought is with each shirt sale, we would then give that user $5 worth of Diamonds.

If anyone has any feedback of suggestions, post them here and I'll read them.

3/20/2017 Maintenance

Here's a quick change log for this last maintenance:

  • Easter Event enabled.
  • Shell shop temporarily disabled.
    • I will be working on bringing things back tonight and tomorrow, though dragons may take longer.
  • Second ban wave.
    • Abusing login reward on multiple accounts will get those accounts banned, and lead to you being mac banned after a warning.
  • XP Orbs removed from login event.
    • We will continue giving out the other login rewards, but XP orbs are now removed from the event.

Announcement Marketplace Maintenance & Price Adjustments

As I announced on the Discord, we will be doing maintenance on marketplace for the next few weeks. The current marketplace is a combination of DP DragonFang, SkyDragon and Sakura Universe, and prices have not been adjusted to coincide with the increase in diamonds per dollar.

Some prices are going to increase, while others will likely decrease. Off the top of my head here is where prices will be changing:

Dragons:
  • Basic Dragons: 500 Diamonds ($2)
  • Rare Dragons: 1250 Diamonds ($5)
  • Special Dragons: 2625 Diamonds ($10)
  • Limited Dragons: 3750 Diamonds (~$15)
Costumes:
  • Costume Wings: 1250 Diamonds ($5)
  • Costume Packs: 1250 Diamonds ($5)
  • Weapon Costumes: 500 Diamonds ($2)
  • Dragon Costumes: 125 Diamonds ($.50)
Housing:
  • Land Warrants: Anything above 300x300 will be slightly increased, and some will be removed as plots aren't available normally. If we do add larger plots to the game, they will be sold as a special.
  • Houses: Will be re-priced based on 250:$1
Dragon Tools:
  • Unchained Energy: will be increased to 1250 ($5)
  • Dragon Enhancement: Some items will be raised or lowered to the new 250 Diamond standard (Probably 25-50 increase or reduction in price)
Utility:
  • Expansion Cards: Prices are either 125 ($.50) or 50 ($.20); primarily they're added for gifting.
  • Miscellaneous: Prices will slightly be adjusted but will primarily stay around 125 ($.50) or lower. Guild Reset will be set to 1250 ($5).
Currently EU is 150 Diamonds per Dollar, so while Diamond prices are similar, ours are still at least 40-50% cheaper in most cases. If there are concerns about specific item prices, I am more than willing to listen to any feedback.
