My dragon is going to bang yours forever until he resets, unless you ceasefire and give me three dragon eggs right now.
I think with the right amount of tuning/balancing this type of mechanic could add a lot more depth to the game. For example: Everyone gets a dragon and by doing certain amount things like hitting ebs\using aqua\inferno or something you get points to allocate toward your dragon. Your dragon could have its own "build" and such. Now of course the issue would be that depending on how you level it and whether it gives % bonuses would make or break the concept and probably the game. It would really need to be something that Everyone can do equally so lb and new ppl have the same chance For example 2: 3 times a day you can "train your dragon" each session lasts 1 hour and after the session you have empty troops and must have full troops to start a session. You may be attacked during a session and if you are knocked dtw the session is failed. You also may not preform an action of any kind while training. Just my thoughts off the top of my head. Of course something like this would be a huge game changer.
I'm envisioning this as a weapon that evolves with your playstyle. Turning colors (such as bloodred for a player that hits others) and gaining stats based on what type of actions you do. The pet idea has been suggested hundreds of times before though, and has never made it into the game. So sadly dragons ( or unicorns) will never make it in.
I probably shouldn't quote this because its long but what ever lol. Yea a morphing weapon would be cool as well. Same concept. But, I think adding a whole new mechanic to the game that Everyone has an equal playing field on would be great. So maybe not "dragons" per se, but maybe a building or even a new version of castle upgrade similar to the style of training via time not gold. Of course this draws some similarities to other games of this genre. COC for example. Or possibly you have a hero that you level up and you can take build paths with that instead. I just think that if they added another layer of depth it could be for the better. Just some ideas. On a side note:what do you think about a piece of equipment that gives really good stats for one category but NEGATIVE stats for others? Like -10m atk 50m spy attack (or maybe conversely because this would be Op on ps) just something I thought of with the morphing weapon idea. Little off topic my bad.
All of the so called humor aside. I like the idea. It could address the overabundance of alts too. Allow the dragon to roam to help or hinder clans ect.
We should have kingdom pets Anything from a ugly troll to a majestic woifie lets make pets real in kaw
