Talk:Peridot Dragon/@comment-5410269-20120820195806

While Ruby was out, I asked if anyone had gotten more than one gemstone/rare dragon using the same breeding pair. And several users responded that they had. My follow-up question is: if anyone has gotten more than one Peridot with the same exact breeding pair, about how many failures (or how many days of failures) did you get in-between? I know that everything points to the breeding being completely random, and that your odds of getting a dragon should be the same every time you breed. But I'm curious whether there's been any testing done or anecdotal evidence about whether there's something in the algorithm that prevents getting a rare dragon w/in a certain amount of time or tries after you get one with a certain breeding pair.

Currently, I'm incubating my fourth Peridot. Once I got one with a particular breeding pair I raised new crystal/cactus to level four and used those instead. I did the same thing last month and got six Ruby. Maybe it doesn't mean anything, but. Just thought I'd ask about other's experiences.
