TRADING GUIDE for Dragon City 2023! How to Do Fair Trades and Avoid Getting SCAMMED!

  • Hi there! So today I thought I'd go through trading in Dragon City, meainly because I see a lot of newer players (and some older players) get confused about the value of dragon orbs. Nobody is going to agree exactly with another as to exactly how valuable one orb is to another, however there are some main things to keep in mind about trading that will help to create fairer trades for you and others in the community.
    The simple way to think about dragon orb values is mainly based on the following three things:
    1. How easy are the orbs to obtain?
    2. How good is the dragon in pvp arenas?
    3. What rarity is the dragon? Common, uncommon, legendary, heroic?
    However, there are a couple of extra things you may want to consider:
    4. How desperate are you to get these specific orbs?
    5. Are there any active events or quests for a specific dragon?
    Ratio trades can be complex (and a waste of essence). The only way to do ratio trades or cross-trades reliably without getting scammed is by doing the following:
    trade 1 - x5 hmk for x5 high nest orbs (player 1 initiates trade)
    trade 2 - x5 random heroic orbs for x5 high nest orbs (player 2 initiates trade)
    Repeat until trade completed as originally agreed.

    Hey quacks, I've seen your video regarding the tips and tricks on empowering heroics so I wondered if you have a video on empowering dragons in general, as in regardless of rarity. I've seen other forums on the DC subreddit with tips and tricks but I just wonder if there are any other ways that aren't either 1.) Getting dupes and ranking them up to Gold 1 before recalling them for what is essentially unlimited orbs; 2.) Trading for them which this video is convenient for. I'm planning on turning some dragons into e5 because up until recently, I only really played to collect dragons in my free time, but I noticed I found myself struggling mostly with League Battle pools with the last Heroic Race event because of having dragons only capped out at e1 or no empowerment at all (lucky I even got High Scale).

    • @quackalakes
      @quackalakes  Год назад +1

      The tips for heroics would be exactly the same as other dragons, just minus access to the bonus orbs from heroic quest. If a dragon is breedable, just breed more copies of it then recall. If a dragon is rescuable, just rescue until you get 2k orbs. If a dragon is a vip, you'll have to collect joker orbs from collections and events and then empower during empower happy hour

    Since im new to the whole trading system, this might have already been a point of discussion, but why dont they just allow you to select how many orbs you are going to trade and for how many in return? The whole issue with ratio trading could easily be fixed. And it takes away the unnecessary wait times involved

    • @quackalakes
      @quackalakes  11 месяцев назад +2

      Because then they wouldnt be able to monetize essence, which is essentially why they are unlikely to change that. They also want trading to be a thing that players can use, but they also want to avoid trading being a thing as much as possible to stop say f2p players from getting p2w dragons

    What is a fair trade for angelic eternal? Someone in my alliance said it was the best dragon in the game and i should trade my high voodoo orbs for him but I don’t think so. Is a vampire orb a good trade for angelic?

    • @Shattered_shards
      @Shattered_shards Год назад +1

      Eternals are terrible.
      Their skill only activates at 15% HP left, and usually have terrible defending types. Furthermore, a titan would be a good trade for angelic orbs as titans are also…meh.

    • @quackalakes
      @quackalakes  Год назад +3

      Eternals are, arguably, some of the weakest VIP dragons in the game currently (although maybe reaper perk will make them slightly more viable now). They are worth the same as other vips, although due to how easy angelic eternal and phoenix eternal were to get for f2ps, you'll find orbs for the other eternals harder to find

    quack, can i summon a prideful vampire with 11 orbs and 80+ joker orbs in summoning happy hour? if I can't, can you tell me what i need to do to be able to summon him?

    • @quackalakes
      @quackalakes  Год назад

      No. A dragon that costs 100 orbs to summon means that you need 100 orbs *total*. So that could be just 1 orb of the dragon + 99 joker orbs of that type, but it still needs to come to 100. You would either need to get more orbs of prideful via trading/events or you would need to get more joker orbs

    • @quackalakes
      @quackalakes  Год назад

      To be honest, you're actually technically giving out more value than they are by trading out arcana death since he's pay-only right now whereas prideful isn't. Maybe the players in your alliance don't have prideful orbs or they're actively working on him so they can't trade them out? They may also not be avid collectors, but players such as myself that are f2p would likely be in favour of that trade because it means they can get a paid dragon in exchange for vamps, which aren't the hardest vips to get.

      They're still limited because they won't be available via events or purchasable, plus divine orbs habitat is very random. Doesn't mean there will ever be zero orbs for them available, but definitely not very many will be left floating around as time goes on

    i think its just how the players manipulated the scarcity of certain "rare"/"OP" dragon orbs which leads to ratio trades and such, but from my point of view all the dragon orbs has equal value when it comes to trading. its all for the collection in my case HAHA lol

    • @quackalakes
      @quackalakes  Год назад +2

      I'm also a collector, but I don't think it's true to say all orbs in the game are of equal value - some dragons are incredibly easy to get and collect, others seemingly near impossible if you're f2p. This means that the harder ones to get would have more value, just fundamentally

    • @christianjusticedy7885
      @christianjusticedy7885 Год назад

      good point but its ratio and cross trade is so unhealthy, F2F or F2W people are so far apart huhu. then again it would have been nice if there are limited quests where you get VIP/Rare Drag orbs without having the requirement of a certain VIP dragon itself.
