    Fire and flame!
    Draco and Lyn Draco are back to make July even hotter!
    These small dragons didn't waste the time they were away: this summer they bring with them new gifts, refreshed in accordance with changes in the world of Elmoreden.
    Help Draco and Lyn Draco to hatch out, and you will be generously rewarded!

    1. How to get Draco Eggs?

    Hunt mobs and collect eggs of different size:

    [​IMG]

    Keep in mind that you won't get event items from monsters 9 and more levels below your character.


    [​IMG]
    Hunting monsters is not the only way to acquire eggs. Speak to NPC Servant of Flames Aslan and he will give you Agathion - Spirit of Flame. When Agathion is summoned, it will give you eggs at certain time periods. You can get a next egg from Agathion the next day after 6:30 AM. Here is more details on this process:

    [​IMG]

    2. How to hatch eggs?

    First, speak to NPC Servant of Flames Aslan and he will give you Agathion - Spirit of Flame. You can find Aslan in every big town.

    [​IMG]

    Equip your Agathion and summon Flame Spirit. It has unique spells which will help you to heat eggs to the required temperature.

    [​IMG]

    Agathion has two basic skills: Pa'agrio's Hand and Attempt Incubation. The first is used to heat the egg to an appropriate temperature, the second - to facilitate incubation.


    [​IMG]

    Click twice on an egg in your inventory to summon it. Upon summoning an egg you will feel the effect of Attention to Draco Incubation that won't allow you to summon other eggs. Special interface will help you look over the heating process. in case of game restart a summoned egg and temperature interface are dismissed. Draco eggs summon is only possible in peace zones!


    [​IMG]

    Summon an egg and immediately use Pa'agrio's Hand skill to heat the egg to an appropriate temperature. Basic egg temperature is 16°C. Small Draco Egg's temperature can be raised 1-10 degrees at once, while Large Draco Egg can only be heated by 0.1-1 degrees. Heat the egg up to 37 °C but don't go higher than that! Small Draco Eggs should be heated within 20 seconds to 26-37°C.

    Large Draco Eggs should be heated within 25 seconds to 36-37°C; the closer the temperature to 37°C the better. Be careful: Pa'agrio's Hand is less effective with Large eggs, you will need help from your friends!

    Small Draco Egg is personal and belong only to the character who summoned it. Attention to Draco Incubation puts your target to the egg, even when you are in a party where one of the members summoned an egg. In the same way, players will not be able to heat small eggs summoned by other characters. When being in a group, summon eggs at some distance from other small eggs, or just leave a group in order to proceed with incubation.

    [​IMG]

    Moreover, it is important to remember that even after reaching the appropriate temperature Draco may not be incubated. For example, incubation from Small Draco Egg may fail even at 36°C. Optimum incubation temperature is 37°C sharp, so the closer you made it to this level the higher chances you have to complete incubation successfully.


    After reaching the required temperature (scale will go yellow) use Attempt Incubation skill upon a heated egg. If hatching is successful a small draco will hatch from the egg; he'll give you a gift and disappear.

    [​IMG]

    Upon successful incubation Draco will give you Draco's Gift. If you heat an egg to 37 degrees precisely small Draco will reward you with Draco's Shiny Gift. The gift you receive does not depend on egg's size: only on temperature at which Draco was incubated.

    If hatching or heating is unsuccessful you will get Shattered Egg Shell that you'll be able to exchange for event items at the event NPC Aslan.

    Heating Large Draco Eggs requires cooperation: party members should heat an egg to reach the required temperature. When heating large eggs a player who summoned the egg receives special reward; so does the one who heated it to the highest temperature (if several players make the same contribution in heating process, a reward will go to the character who made it the first).


    [​IMG]

    Special box will inform you of the details of the heating process after the incubartion: contribution to heating, rank and name. Upon successful incubation the character who summoned the Large Draco Egg and the character who got the highest rank will receive two gifts from Draco (will it be Shiny or not? It depends on the temperature at which Draco was incubated). Other party members will get one gift.


    [​IMG]

    Upon incubation there is a chance to meet a uniquie blue dragon: Lyn Draco. After hatching, Lyn Draco will reward the character who helped him to appear in Elmoreden with a Lyn Draco's gift! Please notice: Lyn Draco will give you only one gift regardless which type of egg it incubated from (e.g. upon meeting Lyn Draco after heating eggs x50 you will receive only one gift).


    [​IMG]

    To meet Lyn Draco you should be quite a lucky adventurer! Finding Lyn Draco does not require optimal temperature (exactly 37°): just hit the temperature when incubation is possible (the yellow indicator). Here you can find the table showing the chances to meet Lyn Draco.


    [​IMG]

    3. Small Draco Eggs with improved reward

    NPC Servant of Flames aslan can unite several of your eggs in one. 10 small eggs will create Small Draco Egg x 10, while 50 eggs - Small Draco Egg x 50. You can obtain 10 or 50 times more rewards respectively. Small Draco Egg x 10 and x 50 can be obtained only from event NPC, you will not get them as a loot!

    [​IMG]
    4. Aslan's lottery

    You can play a game with Aslan: bring 50 Shattered Egg Shells and get one of the following:
    • Small Draco Egg
    • Large Draco Egg
    • Draco's Gift
    • Draco's Shiny Gift
    Be careful! Aslan can trick you and you might get nothing at all!
    [​IMG]


    [​IMG]

    According to the incubation temperature you will receive different gifts from dragons. Here you can look up what is inside:
    Draco's Gift
    [​IMG]

    Draco's Shiny Gift
    [​IMG]

    Lyn Draco's Gift
    [​IMG]

    Shattered Egg Shell exchange list:
    [​IMG]


    Take a good care of Draco and Lyn Draco, and they will make it worth your while!

    Additional Information:

    seriously, the drop rate of this evnet on me is bugged or something, i kill faster than others and i farm more time and I get few eggs (10 in a hour, not joke) and isee others with 100 or more.

    farming in the cemetary both.

    Farming AoE LoC we got 1-2 event drops from every pull, including the adds from dead mobs. During x3 time, too. Sometimes they dropped 2 egg stacks.

    If you want eggs, better hunt stuff that dies fast. And don't be unlucky like Winegod :D

    No bugs. This is a typical timing-based event. A certain amount of event-items drop to the server at a certain time interval. This applies to all farm events.
    Jul 8, 2015
    10 small and 2 large per day for each character.

    This is not bug. It is system change from long time ago. If you use AOE damage and kill a lot of mobs at once you get less quest items. If you kill mobs one by one you have better chances to get quest items. Just part of anti-bot system :)
    (40 normal eggs in 30 min farmed this way at the evening)

    I didnt farm this event os much, but i think they a bit reworked system in last event, and it wasnt so "easy" as before when window was aproximately every minute for few seconds.
    But now, only pure farming for 1 hour ( leveling toon) i got 130 small and 9 big. No clue if there is timer and how much farmers with timer can get, but i dont think 20 per hour like people said its true.

    You got valakas last event so they keep you away from farming to make things even.

    This event is not working with drop windows* but i believe with actual drop chance.
    I have killed mobs and got items from every 2nd or 3rd, if it was like old events every mob would have dropped in that time.


    What i wonder is, did they really apply 3x drops for 18-2 CEST?
    I farmed with same char, same equip, same buffs at the same spot both last evening and this afternoon for 1.5h.
    Each time I got 30-40 event drops / 30minutes, not 90-120 as it should have been with 3x drops...

    *old event system released a certain number of items every X time. Every mob would drop in that time, and there would be no chance for drops outside of this.
    How do i know it's not a time but a number of items? Because at low activity times, the windows with drops last longer, but in prime time it was hard to get items even when u time it with a watch.
