Hello Friends!! Now that we got the very basics on how to train your baby dragons, what happens when they are all grown up? Let's find out! PVE Battling - Age 5 and older ~ Your dragon is all grown up and looks amazing and wants to battle!! You will want to wear your dragon and go to the battle screen in your HUD, by clicking the red diamond. When the HUD is successfully linked to your dragon, you will see all its stats in that screen. This is what you need to do to make sure the Archetype sticks for your dragon. Here, you will see the stats of your dragon and any battle buffs you have added to your HUD. As well as, buttons for battle settings. They include: Set Dragon Icon - Allows you to set a picture for your dragon. Monster Encounters - Allows you to search for enemies. Challenge A Player - Allows you to participate in PVP (Player vs. Player) battle. Play! - Allows you to train your baby dragon. The Archetype you trained your dragon will show with an (X) next to it. As you can see here under Speed. PVE (Player vs. Environment) battling is the way you gain levels after age 5. You can train your dragon up to Level 50 max. To start a PVE battle, click the 'Monster Encounters' button. This will make the HUD search for enemies. Equip the biome of your choice and click it (You'll only need to equip this once, until you want to change the biome/environment) and then walk or fly around with your dragon to find enemies. The biome determines the environment you'll fight in. There are three biomes to choose from now and two of them can be found in the folder with your HUD and training toys. The third one is for the Festival of Flames and is a permanent environment! YAY! When your HUD finds an enemy, it will change and take you to the battle. This is where you fight your enemies. Starting from the top of the HUD, you will see a list of enemies you'll need to fight. As you gain levels, you will have more enemies to fight at one time. You can also see a picture of them beside the list. Next, you'll see a Battle Log area. Here, you will be able to keep track of every action made during the battle. Then below that is where you keep track of your dragon's health and make your attack. Here's the breakdown: Name of your dragon. Hit Points (HP) - How many hits your dragon can take during battle. Actions - Each cell represents one action that you can take against your enemies. Some actions take more than one cell. Surges - Are for using magic and breath. You build these up by successfully attacking your enemy. The harder the attack, the more surges you get. Action Buttons: You have a choice of 6 actions during a battle. The numbers on the buttons represent the percentage of chance you have of hitting your enemy with that action. Claw - Takes one action cell to perform. Tail - Takes two action cells to perform and can only be used once per round. Bite - Takes two action cells to perform and can only be used once per round. Breath - Takes five surge cells and four action cells to perform. Magic - Takes at least two surge cells to perform, depending on the action and this will bring up a menu, for you to choose your action. The choices are: Goss Bandage, Rage, Wool Bandage, Silk Bandage, Mana Blast, Haste, and Heal. More about these buttons is below. Flee - If you want to end the battle early, but will count as a loss. End Turn - If you don't want to perform any more actions against your enemy. This allows your enemy to take their turn against you. Magic Menu: Goss (Gossimer) Bandage, Wool Bandage, Silk Bandage - This will allow you to use one of your bandages. You can only use one of each during a battle. Goss restores 60 HP. Silk restores 40 HP. Wool will restore 20 HP. Rage - Gives extra damage during a battle for three rounds. It takes two action cells and three surge cells to perform. Haste - Gives one bonus action cell for three rounds. It takes one action cell and one surge cell to perform. Mana Blast - Will blast your enemy with damage. It takes two action cells and at least one surge cell (up to three) to perform. The more surges you use, the more damage you will inflict on your enemy. Heal - This will restore HP to your dragon. The more surge cells you use the more HP you will restore (up to three surges). As you battle you will see the play-by-play in the Battle Log and when the battle ends, whether through victory or loss, it will show in both the Battle Log and Local Chat. Your Flee button will change to End Match and you'll want to click it to get back to the main battle screen. Once you're at the main battle screen, just click your Monster Encounters button to start another match! **Please note that the battle buffs in your HUD pertain to YOU and not your dragons. You will be able to use them for ALL your dragons as specified by the buff itself, which we will cover at a later date. Also, please refer to the PVE video made by Ava to show you step-by-step how these battles are done in real time. And remember, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out within the community! See ya out there!

Crafting is among one of the best things about owning, breeding and raising dragons. Digging and Crafting go hand in hand. In our world of Mystical Creatures we dig for the treasured resources needed to craft special items! These are the items you can dig up and all have value. Some of these treasures you dig up, can be valuable and can be found in dragon markets within the community as well. What types of items can you dig? The following are items you may find while digging around~ " -Resources - These are accumulated on your hud, you use the resources to craft Blueprints that you find! -AP Items - These items give you AP points that are used to craft. -Blue Print - These are craft able Blueprints used with resources to craft. -Catalyst - These are used to craft some Blueprints." Read more about the items you can dig up in detail here~https://dragon.amaretto.wiki/index.php/Crafting_Resources Have you dug up some Blueprints that you just cant wait to see? Ever wonder how to craft from Blueprints? What items you need to craft? Lets look at the basic steps to craft~ 1. First you have to be near a Leyline Forge. (Get a updated version of one at any official Mystical Creatures stores for free) Have your MC HUD on and turn to the crafting page by clicking the bottom left diamond at the bottom 2. Rezz your leyline forge and place your blueprint on the forge, then click the blueprint to start. You should see a message like this one " Mystical Dragons ~Leyline Forge~: Blueprint: ( small chest ), checking for ingredients..." "The ingredients needed to craft will be displayed on your Hud in the Blueprint box, you will chose which items to use by clicking them in the resources box, once all ingredients are selected a Craft button will appear at the top of your hud, click the craft button and you will see the following in local chat: "Leyline Forge: Attempting to consume items... Leyline Forge: Consuming item Blueprint" "Leyline Forge: Congratulations! You have crafted! This item is currently being processed and will be delivered shortly! The item should be delivered to your objects folder in your inventory and the Blue Print along with any Catalyst used will disappear." You can also refer to our wiki page on how to do all this in the below weblink~ https://dragon.amaretto.wiki/index.php/Digging_and_Crafting_Instructions With the Festival of Flames in full swing we are all excitedly digging up those cinder shards to turn in for those special prizes and at the same time we gather important items to be used in Crafting too. What will you try to craft first? Please check out this video below as well on how to craft and how to split stacks with Ava! Happy Crafting everyone!

As the fiery embers of the Festival of Flames Stage 2 began to dim, the skies above the Mystical Creatures Lands were painted with streaks of gold and crimson. For the past week the land had been alive with battling Dragons, frantic Digging, and many Fire Dragons entering the Eternal land of Ascension. The Flamekeepers, steadfast guardians of the festival, diligently oversaw the collection and offering of countless Cinder Shards scattered across the land. Now, as the embers settled, whispers of Stage 3 stirred, a new challenge awaited, one that would test not only the might of the dragons but the strength of their bonds. Tia shouted "The flames have spoken, and their call must be answered. Stage 3 of the Festival of Flames begins! New Flamekeepers shall emerge, secrets long buried shall rise, and the flames will reveal those who are truly ready to claim their place among the legends." Excitement crackled through the air like a storm of embers as dragons from all areas prepared for the next phase. Some sought Cinder Shards by digging, others claimed theirs through fierce battles. As the first challenge of Stage 3 dawned, the skies ignited once more. The Festival of Flames had entered its next great era, and those who dared to face it would etch their names into the chronicles of dragonkind forever. The glowing Cinder continued to amass, overflowing the altar with radiant energy. What could stage 3 hold? You never know! Everyone who turned in Cinder Shards during this stage will recieve Mystical Fire Crystal Garland! The top 10 people will recieve 8 amplifiers! The top 3 People will recieve 8 amplifiers, 8 Mystical Nesting Charm for Dragonesses, and 8 Mystical Nesting Charm for Drakes! Once again the Leader Boards have been reset for stage 3! The Mystical Creatures team challeneges you to become a Flamekeeper and ensure the Festival of Flames continues to BURN!!

Hello Friends! So you want to train your dragons for battle? Let's start at the beginning! You've just hatch an egg, now what? The first 5 days ~ The first thing you'll want to do is choose an archetype to train your dragon. There are 6 Archetypes. All Rounder Attack Defense Speed Focus HP You will want to train your dragon in only one of the archetypes. If you train them in all, they will be an All Rounder. You can find more info in your Mystical Dragons HUD Folder > Handler's Guide > Battling Instructions. You'll need to rez the Handler's Guide and open it. What next? EASY!!! Secondly, you'll want to rez the corresponding toy to the archetype you've chosen. THEN.... For the first 5 days of your dragons life, you can train them with the toy, every 6 hours! Remember, as long as you train your dragon at least 3 times it will take the trained archetype. However, if you chose to give it away or sell it before the first 5 days, all the training you've done will be lost. It needs to be 5 days old and connected to the battle HUD in order to retain the archetype. Once you rez the toy next to your dragon, it only takes three easy steps to properly train it! 1.) Click the toy 2.) Click PLAY on your HUD (Under the Battle Screen) 3.) Click your dragon! You will then see in Local chat if your training was successful and will show you how many times you've trained your dragon, up to 5 times! You can also find a Training Tutorial by Ava in this video. Training your baby dragons is easy and FUN! See ya out there!

Tia’Malcara regards the little island she calls home with fondness. It's been quite busy since the festival began, visitors coming and going to pick up supplies or donate their hard-earned Cinder Shards. Another person, dragon in tow, excitedly scrambles up the steps, dumping a basket full of shards into the Altar, and cheers when their name climbs the rankings–a little board she devised, knowing that Tamers, Breeders and Collectors loved competition as much as their Dragons. It had certainly motivated them and their drive was obvious through their enthusiasm. She could sense that the Obelisk was nearing its first milestone. This was certainly cause for celebration, and she pondered what sorts of rewards she could provide those who showed the most promise. After all, her hopes and expectations had not only been met, but exceeded! Tia’Pyra would’ve been overjoyed, and she hoped that wherever she was, she could feel the warmth of everyone’s hard work and dedication. With a smile, she prepared herself to channel the collected magicks into the Obelisk. She was eager to see how much progress had been made so far! Thanks to the community’s hard work since the festival began, we’ve hit our first major milestone! The Obelisk is starting to fill—come check it out! Stage 1 is now complete, and Stage 2 is officially underway! A new leaderboard begins now, but don’t worry your totals from all stages are cumulative. At the end of the festival, everything will be added up! As a thank-you, everyone who has turned in cinders will receive a participation gift Mystical Terrain - Blazing Steppes! Keep an eye out! In addition to the participation gifts, the top 10 players on the leader board will receive 1 Mystical Charm of Eternity! The top 3 players will receive any Mystical LE of their choice old or new, as well as a Mystical Dragon Breeding & Wellness Pack! We are now entering stage 2 of the Festival of Flames! If you are not participating its a great time to get started! Who knows what fiery surprises await? Let the flames burn bright!

Tia’Malcara’s words promise a Festival packed with fun. But that begs the question: How do we acquire these ‘Cinder Shards’? She smiles. “Observant, you are. It's simple! Dig. battle, and breed as you have been doing. You may find them by defeating monsters in a specific Biome, while Digging for treasure, or when Ascending Fire dragons to my care.” What about Earth, or Water dragons, you ask. “Only Fire dragons will grant Cinder Shards upon Ascension. And, I’ll be able to grant you double the amount of Ascension points for each Ascended Fire Dragon or Egg during the Festival as well!” These Leyline alignments sound quite fascinating, you think! She agrees. After all, they’re the source of Dragon magic! “Now then, my friend-I must finish preparation for this Festival, so please let everyone know about it! We’ll need everyone’s help to collect enough Cinder Shards to Kindle something incredible.” She waves a taloned forepaw in the air and an arcane circle drawn from Draconic runes etches itself from thin air, glowing a brilliant blue color. From the arcane sigil emerges a scroll. “Here, friend. This scroll contains all the details you’ll need to know. Oh, and please do let people know that there will be some goodies for them to collect as part of the event, including an event-specific Wand for digging, and a Biome Beacon to help you seek out monsters carrying Cinder Shards in the Molten Crater.” You thank her profusely. “Safe travels, friend! ‘Til we meet again!” With that, she turns her back to you and begins directing a few Adolescent dragons who seem to be failing miserably at building a wooden stall. Apparently the instruction manual was upside down. You take a moment to review the Scroll, which seems to be a brief yet informative overview of what she has dubbed the First Festival of Flames: Welcome, Breeders, Tamers, and Collectors alike! Join us, March 18, 2025 for the First Festival of Flames! -Gather Cinder Shards by Battling, Digging, and Ascending Fire Dragons and Fire Eggs! (Must be Fire Element Skins to qualify). Greater Contributions of Cinder Shards grant better rewards, with the grand prize being a Legendary Edition event-exclusive Dragon! Head over to the MC Main store to grab your box of Festival of Flames Essentials containing: -An Event-specific Fire Festival Wand - Ramshackle Tool for Digging can be acquired at the Mystical Store for free. -’Molten Crater’ Biome Beacon adds a new, permanent Fire-themed Battle Biome, while monsters defeated in this Biome will drop Cinder Shards for the duration of the Festival. -Ascend Fire Element Dragons and Eggs for DOUBLE Ascension Points for the duration of the Festival. -Strut your stuff during the Parade! Show off your prized Dragon for all to see, dressing up to match is encouraged!* -Bring the Fire with a burning hot party! Live music and prizes!* -And more!** *Dates for all activities will be announced soon. From the Team here at Mystical Dragons, we hope you’re all fired up for our first Festival event!

You continue to talk to Tia "Oh, a Celebration you say. Whatever for?" “Why, to celebrate Fire of course!” You glance around, taking in the sights. The Fire crystal garland, the red banners emblazoned with the Sigil of Flames, the flaming braziers being set up around the area. You hadn’t quite noticed that ‘Fire’ seemed to underpin everything, too enraptured by Tia’Malcara’s story. Of course, a Fire Festival! “Tia’Pyra loved parties, and festivals. It was her idea to host festivals in the first place, hoping to build comradery amongst our people. So they became an annual tradition. Or maybe it was every hundred years…? Or maybe thousands. Time is a funny thing to us Dragons.” So a festival then. That sounds like fun! “Yes! Great fun indeed, all in the spirit of Tia’Pyra and to celebrate the bravery, passion and drive of Fire Dragons. After all, they’re strong-willed and passionate creatures, and it's only fitting that we celebrate Fire dragons in the only way we know how: With a party of course–And during such an auspicious time, too–The Leylines haven’t aligned like this since before the disappearance of Dragonkind!” So what’s that Altar for? And the Obelisk behind it? Does it have something to do with this ‘Leyline Alignment’? “The Altar of Flames is a sacred Dragon relic for condensing Magicks into a more versatile form. During the Festival, you’ll all be able to collect Cinder Shards–coalesced shards of Fire magicks, which only occur during Leyline alignments. If enough of them are brought together, we may well see something we’ve never seen before emerge from the flames of your success.” What are cinder shards? Do you know?!

Have you seen what's new Dragon Lovers? New Traits are popping up all over town, coming from our latest combination breeding challenge! On January 31st 2025, Mystical Creatures gave the community a really cool breeding challenge for our dragons::: 3 breeding challenges! 1. Breed together Baron Skin with Antlers Sleet 2. Breed together Leafage Caladium with Datentud Skin 3. Breed together Ruby skin with Charcoal Piebald Marking It doesn't matter which parent has which trait as long as 1 parent has 1 and the other parent has the other! As many of us take part in the fun of this breeding challenge, traits are beginning to show up in the community! Working diligently to breed together the best combinations to bring out those special new traits on the best dragons possible is both challenging and rewarding! Just look at what we have seen so far: #1 Breed the Baron skin and Antlers Sleet + = gave us these amazing new SCARLET ANTLERS #2 Breed Datentuds with Caladium Leafage += gave us ... this Obsidian Leafage! #3 Breed a Ruby skin with a Charcoal Piebald += the latest and greatest....Red Piebald! Keep breeding out those beautiful combinations and see what inspiring traits you get~ You may be the lucky ones to drop these latest and greatest new Traits!

Today on Mystical Creatures Isle........... Tia’Malcara reclines upon the rocks, her gaze fixed upon you. "Did I ever tell you about my siblings?” Her siblings? No, she hadn’t. But you’re certainly curious. “You might be quite surprised to learn that I am the youngest of my brood, lastborn of the Primes.” That is surprising, actually. She never really gave you the ‘youngest sibling’ vibes. She smiles at your look of shock. “Yes! I have five other Brothers and Sisters, you see. Val’Tenebrux is the oldest of us-He’s the Prime of Shadows. After him came my sister and the Prime of Embers, Tia’Pyra. Next is my sister, Tia’Serene, the Prime of Currents.” She pauses to let two dragons pulling a cart carrying a large, carved stone sculpture of a taloned hand gripping a clear orb rumble by. “After her is my brother, Ti’Gaian, the Prime of Stone. Then there’s Bal’Tempest-He’s the Prime of Zephyrs. And lastly, myself, born L’maura, Prime of Prisms.” Wait, Tia’Malcara isn’t her original name, you ask. She shakes her head. “The name Malcara was given to me by a dear friend who is no longer with us. I only hope she’s at peace in the beyond.” Her expression is tender, but sorrowful. You apologize for opening old wounds. She waves a forepaw dismissively. “Worry not, friend. The memory of her lives on in me.” They all sound like such unique and interesting individuals–you’d love to know more, if she’s willing. She’s happy, excited even, to oblige. “I was closest to Tia’Pyra and Bal’Tempest. Tia’Pyra was an extremely passionate and driven individual. Her personality burned as bright as her fire breath, and she inspired us all with her drive and fervor for life. I miss her deeply. Bal’Tempest meanwhile was carefree and constantly trying to skip out on his responsibilities so he could master trick-flying. He was a thrill-seeker, never happy unless he was airborne. The winds called to him and he answered with glee.” Sounds like one hell of a guy, you say. She nods. By now, you’ve both come to a central plaza where helpers are setting up that carved stone Altar you saw earlier, setting it gently at the base of a grand stone Obelisk. What about the others, you say. “Mm, yes. I wasn’t as close with Ti’Gaian and Tia’Serene, as Ti’Gaian was usually busy building new lands for our flourishing kind. He was hard-headed and an even harder worker, but had a heart of gold. He’d move mountains–sometimes literally–for someone if it meant helping them. My only regret was not getting to spend more time with him. Tia’Serene wasn’t like the rest of us, however. She worked tirelessly to make the oceans deep and fathomless, and often secluded herself there. She preferred quiet and privacy, and rarely ever surfaced except when Mother, Tia’Amat, summoned us.” Wait, there’s one more, you say. She politely declines. “Another time, friend. No time for tears, for now is a time of celebration!” A celebration? What does Tia mean by that?

A lengthy trek to to Mystical Creatures isle, home to Tia’Malcara............ When you land, Tia’Malcara is there to greet you fondly, bowing her head in reverence, only to be startled as a hatchling runs headlong into her hind foot. The fireling circles her foot, ‘roaring’ at the larger Fire adolescent in pursuit. She shoos them away, and the pair go bouncing away excitedly. “Never a moment's rest!” She chortles happily. “They grow up so quickly, though, so I enjoy this as long as I am able.” You nod in agreement, they’re only so cute for so long. But you’re here on the matter of her concerningly brief invitation. “Oh! Apologies. I would’ve written more, but the Hatchlings were trying to eat my pen. Well then, you’re here now so, please, walk with me.” She beckons, turning her great mass such that her wing shields you from the noon-day sun. You ask her what was so important, that she’d summon you so suddenly, as you walk along beside her. The island is quite abuzz with activity. Caretakers and Dragons alike are hard at work erecting wooden stands and banners. Garlands of fire crystals are hung across the walkways. Lanterns are set up all along the ground, ready to be lit. It looks like preparation for a.. Festival, of sorts, but it is not quite ready. The journey continues....
