I agree. While this is one power that was bound to come to DV eventually, even though it is a rather inefficient power, I am more peeved than excited about this one. Last time, when Gaia was released, I actually felt excited about the quests and collecting the fragments. Even with the mythic dragons, there was still a desirable reward. This is now worth it at all. With a large park, sometimes the only time I look at certain dragons is when I'm going around collecting money. I am also displeased with BFS for not allowing chests to be bought with gems. So the only way to get the "Abundant Essence" (which isn't very abundant), is to open the two chests, which probably won't yield more than 100 a day and collecting... which seems to grant maybe 1,000 a day if we are lucky? I got about 200 from collecting once, but maybe that was just so I could buy the first piece and the normal day-to-day rate will be lower than that. The dragon costs about 150,000 of this essence stuff, so maybe it's not awful if we can get about 1,000 a day (would only take 5 months of continuous play to get it), but it's cheap to not make the chests or pieces able to be bought with gems like the other four dragons. Also, I don't like that I might get a hybrid dragon instead of the essence since I already have all of them and their twin versions (and note, this doens't include Rift hybrids since they are of the Rare category). All in all... a cool dragon, with a nice, but not necessary power, with a horrendously painful way of obtaining him. Really, I'm only upset about not being able to buy chests or pieces with gems since I have been saving up for almost a year so that I could speed run the next legendary/mythic dragon. Oh well..........
