DragonCash

DragonCash


DragonCash can be found in the Treasure section of the Market. It is used to purchase buildings such as your Colosseum and Treat Farms, clear obstacles, buy pure-bred eggs, purchase Decorations, The most important use of DragonCash is probably making habitats and saving enough to buy a Water Dragon. Once you have aquired a Water Dragon you can simply breed the Fire Dragon with the Water Dragon to get an Air Dragon. It takes 2 hours to Breed and 2 hours to Incubate but sells for 500,000 DragonCash! If you start another Water and Fire Dragon right after the first two are finished (and the Air Dragon Egg is incubating) you can collect 500,000 DragonCash every 2 hours and your money worries are officially over. Visit the Strategies page if you sill don't understand the trick.

There are two primary ways of receiving DragonCash in DragonVale.

Paid DragonCash
DragonCash can be purchased through the Treasure screen for real currency. The images above show how much DragonCash you can buy per USDollar. Like Treats and Gems, you are offered more "incentive" DragonCash when you spend a larger sum of money at one time. It is one of the staples of the In-App Purchase system and without it, the studio or game publisher wouldn't generate any revenue from the game.

 Example : The first purchase option is for 144,500 and costs $0.99 (£0.69). So we'll assume that the rate is 144,500 DragonCash per $0.99 (£0.69). The next step up is 289,000 for $1.99 (£1.39), using the 144,500 per $0.99 (£0.69) rate, the second offer doesn't give you any extra "incentive" cash. The next step up is 758,625 DragonCash for $4.99 (£2.99). Using the same rate, this offer gives you 36,125 extra "incentive" cash. The next step is 1,589,500 for $9.99 (£6.99). This offer provides you with 144,500 extra "incentive" cash. The next step is 4,046,000 DragonCash for $24.99 (£17.49). This offer provides you with 433,500 extra "incentive" cash. The final offer is 8,959,000 DragonCash for $49.99 (£34.99)! This offer gives you 1,734,000 extra "incentive" cash.

DragonCash is only a problem until you reach level 14. We highly advise against any purchases of DragonCash because after level 14 you can use the Air Dragon trick (in the Strategies page) and within a day you'll have over ten million DragonCash (which is worth more than $49.99 according to Backflip). It's quite an easy thing to do as you can just grow Blushrooms in the process of waiting as they also take 2 hours and accumulate quite a bit of Treats and DragonCash for the future and you didn't spend a dime. If you're going to spend your money on anything, spend it on Gems.

Free DragonCash
Your habitats will slowly fill up with DragonCash until you collect them or they fill up (whichever comes first). In the case of Plant Habitats, the large one can only hold 500 DC so you would have to constantly be watching and collecting it to get the most DragonCash out of your habitats. The Earth Habitat is the best one for collecting and saving up DragonCash because it can hold the most over time. When you go to sleep it'll be your Earth Habitats that make your morning a beautiful one (especially when you unlock the Large Earth Habitat).



Another way to earn a little extra DragonCash per day is to go to your friends list and visit their parks. You'll see some habitats with a little party hat over them (image to the right), there will be three of them scattered around the park. Just click on the party hat and you get free DragonCash dependant on your level. You can repeat this process for each friend, once per day Here is a table below to show you how much you can collect based on your level. Taken from the friends page.
