Explorers, update 1.2.29 was recently pushed for Android (1.2.26 for iOS) and we were once again provided with some delightful findings under what Ludia claims to be a patch for:

Support for Japanese and Russian languages;

Improved error messages to better troubleshoot player issues;

Stability optimizations and various minor bug fixes.

Luckily, there is more to it!

Visual Glitches

Remember the white silhouette-like icon that appears before launching the Drone Sequence? Or the Coin Reward that you seemingly receive when doing an Oustanding DNA collection sequence? Thanks to PokeFodderYT, who has received confirmation from Ludia, it appears that these two are simply visual glitches. While it indicates that you are receiving a Coin Reward, you are actually not receiving any coins. However, this might be linked to the potential quests that have been found in the APK a while back!

Arena

There seems to be more indication about upcoming Arena ranks, which would go up to rank 12. However, there are seemingly still a few ranks missing in the APK.

New Dinosaurs

There identities are yet unknown, but as soon as we find out we will let out know. From what we know, there would be at least:

2 Commons;

3 Rares;

2 Epics;

1 Legendary.

We have no information as to whether or not these would be Hybrids, but stay tuned until we find out!

TWO MORE WEEKS OF SPECIAL EVENTS! And trust us, they are looking amazing!

Special Event Week 6

Monday+Tuesday+Wednesday (36 attempts in total)

Tarbosaurus, Ankylosaurus Gen 2 and Apatosaurus

Thursday+Friday+Saturday (15 attempts in total)

Argentinosaurus, Amargasaurus, Nodosaurus

Sunday (3 attempts)

Nodopatosaurus

Week 6 Analysis

Week 6 is obviously going for Gigaspikasaur, although depending on your situation, you could also use this opportunity to create or level up your Tragodistis, Amargocephalus, Nodopatosaurus and/or Stegodeus. Our advice? Aim for Gigaspikasaur, Stegodeus, or Tragodistis.

Tragodistis Amargocephalus Nodopatosaurus Stegodeus

For Commons, use most of your attempts on Apatosaurus. It is an extremely important Dinosaur to unlock/evolve several Hybrid Dinos such as Nodopatosaurus, Stegodeus, and Gigaspikasaur.

For the Rares, we would suggest to aim for Nodosaurus and Amargosaurus. Stegodeus (created from Nodosaurus DNA) is one of the best Indominus Rex counter in the game and probably the best tank in the game. As for Amargosaurus, it has two very powerful Hybrids: Tragodistis and Gigaspikasaur.

The Sunday Epic is a bit underwhelming since it is a Hybrid that you can create with a Rare and a Common, but you should make sure to collect DNA from it nonetheless.

Special Event Week 7

Monday+Tuesday (24 attempts in total)

Lythronax and Deinocheirus

Wednesday+Thursday+Friday (15 attempts in total)

Proceratosaurus, Dracorex, Utahraptor

Saturday (3 attempts)

Sinoceratops

Sunday (1 attempt)

Utahsinoraptor

Week 7 Analysis

Week 7 is the Utarinex week. It not only has both ingredients for Utasinoraptor, but it also has the Legendary herself on Sunday.

Utarinex Utasinoraptor Dracorex

For Commons, Deinocheirus is definitely the Dino to go for. It’s a great Dino with Rampage on your first turn, high speed and it is also fairly hard to find as it is a park related spawn.

The Rare Dinos are tricky. There’s a good argument that could be made for each. Proceratosaurus is a decent Rare in the game and since it can only be obtained in the Arena, you could go for it here. However, it has no hybrids, so its potential is lower. Dracorex does not spawn in the wild, so if you ever want that Utarinex, you’d better be out there farming Dracorex! Utahraptor is great Rare itself, and also has 2 direct Hybrids, and 2 more indirect ones. Therefore, it is a highly used Dino in every aspect.

Saturday is Sinoceratops, so now people can finally stop complaining about it never spawning (including us)!

Then Sunday is the great Utasinoraptor, which everyone should be working towards to that week.

Parting Words

With the new event update and this list of great Dinos, Ludia is working overtime to give us the best player experience possible. These are all great free Dinos that are highly requested by the community, so once again it shows that Ludia is listening.

We at Metahub are very excited about the next two weeks and we will keep everyone updated on all the newest info we come across! Join our Discord to discuss all about it and make sure to support us on Twitter to get the latest info!
