Strategy

Week 12 dinos have certainly surprised us this week and we are quite excited about a few of them. Are you wondering which dinos to go for this week? We are guessing you already know, but we will give our advice nonetheless!

For the Commons, we have to admit that we are not nearly excited as we are for the rares and epics. Our best advice is to go for either Ophiacodon if you are looking to create or level up Ankylocodon, or Nundasuchus if you are looking to create or level up its hybrids, Einiasuchus or Majundasuchus. Otherwise, the commons this week are just a matter of preference… Perhaps you have a favorite dino in there!

For the Rare Dinosaurs, we cannot see any other option than going all Irritator on this one. Irritator is the much needed ingredient for creating Pyrritator AND it is also a Battle Arena Incubator exclusivity! Therefore, one should clearly focus on Irritator (or at least use most of their attempts on this one)! Furthermore, Pyrritator needs to be at level 20 to create the Apex Dino Magnapyritor!

Having said that, you may have another agenda in mind that revolves around a bit more attainable Dinos… In that case, Gorgosuchus is certainly not a bad idea either, considering that the Alpha Tier Dino (and its hybrid Megalosuchus) has been amazing in the arena in this meta!

For the Epics, we assume that this choice will be an easy one for everyone. We will definitely be darting every single Tyrannosaurus Rex we can find, will you? The need for T-Rex DNA is immense, as it is needed for Indominus Rex, Indoraptor, and Trykosaurus! Not to mention just getting T-Rex leveled up enough to even create these dinosaurs, or what a beast T-Rex can be just by itself. We are pretty certain that poor Secodontosaurus will not be getting much love this coming weekend.. and we certainly understand why!

Incubators in the store

So as usual, we have 2 new incubators in store, one themed – Fierce Creatures/Heavy Hitters, one Showcase.

For the showcase incubator, we’ve got a rare one, the pool will include all the weekly Dinos this week with a small chance of getting one of the epics too. This week’s Dinos are not the best we’ve had, but the mere fact that Irritator is available makes this Incubator very appealing. Rare Incubators are more affordable, and overall, a better deal than Epic Incubators, so one could be tempted to get it, and we wouldn’t be able to argue against it!

This next incubator is a quite exciting one! It’s an Epic Incubator featuring Heavy Hitters/Fierce Creatures! Considering how Dinosaurs with Shields and Armor are currently quite strong in the Meta, heavy hitters are definitely useful and therefore it could be tempting to get this Incubator!

As usual, there is quite a large pool of potential Dinosaurs. Therefore, we maintain the same opinion via Incubators: Best to keep your Cash for Coins, and to hunt in the wild! You are in for a much more interesting gaming experience! Potential Dinosaurs that one should expect are :

Commons

Rares

Epics

Legendaries (if lucky)

Cash / Coin Offer?

There currently isn’t any Cash / Coin offer.

Featured Dinosaurs – How does it work? – Recap

Featured Dinosaurs work as follows:

You have a set amount of hours to collect DNA from the Featured Dinos, as indicated on the event Dino/drop once you open them;

Cycles always begin at 10:00 a.m. EDT and last for however many hours indicated on that day;

During the given time period, there will be 1-5 different Featured Dinos and you will have a combined amount of attempts for the Dinosaurs together! For example, if you need more Sarco DNA then Tany DNA, you could do 20 Sarco attempts and only 4 Tany! Vice versa, if you need more Tany DNA than Sarco DNA, you could do more Tany attempts than Sarcos;

The number of attempts are as the same as the last few weeks, except possibly Rares, which they have updated. Note that you have to add the number of attempts assigned to the first Featured Dino’s Tier with the one from the second Featured Dino’s Tier to know how many attempts you will have.

Another update is that Ludia has increased Rare attempts to 5 each.

Number of attempts based on the Tiers:

Common: 12

Rare: 6

Epic: 3

Legendary: 1

Unique: 1

Parting Words

We are very excited to know that we have a Twelfth week of Featured Dinosaurs to look forward to! Even though we are once again not given a shot at a Legendary, we are very excited to see Irritator and T Rex, and maybe even a few others!
