Patience is a virtue, I know, but these gem dragons are really testing my resolve!! I am level 30 dedicated, daily player who is extremely proud of her islands. I bought gems to get the EBI and to upgrade hibernation cave but have mostly relied on patience for breeding (until now) I have at least two of each dragon, including reg rares - thanks to trying to breed emerald :-).

I bred non stop in both caves for the entire time emerald was available and managed to get only 3 for my efforts. Lost my patience after 9 days of patiently breeding with no emerald and bought gems to speed up-I really wanted it. My daughter also bred as much as possible but she did not get any!

I have been again breeding non stop in both caves since Pearl became available. I just now got my first 30 hour. (RBC-lv12 snow/seaweed) After 5 days of continuous breeding!! I am going to keep at it, but am going to use only one cave for Pearl, and the other to breed my Forge and Copper dragons-been too busy with gem dragons to even try for them!!

Sorry for the long post-i guess my point is that the odds for getting these dragons seems to be messed up! Some getting in 1 try(?) but most needing 40 or more tries. I understand they should be more difficult to breed than other rares, but REALLY?!?! Please Backflip....adjust the odds of getting these dragons. I LOVE this game but the stress level of getting these dragons is taking some of the fun out of playing. :-(
