Christmas came early for me and I wanted to share the experience with everyone here
Even though I’ve played since launch (pretty frequently, but still “cheap-to-play” as I call it) Indoraptor had been my only unique for months.
I’d gotten prizes the first tournament and ranked in the top 500 for the last two. But since then, I had been on a terrible losing streak. I Know many of you can relate … it felt like my team had been missing something and they just weren’t able to compete. The meta was changing and we were “outdated.” In any case, I knew I had to change somethings around. Here’s my journey on how I unlocked all 3 of these beasts in the same week:
regarding Magna:
This was a Dino I had wanted since Day 1. It’s speed (back when 128 meant something) was faster than almost any other Dino and it’s moveset and immunity didn’t leave much to be desired. The health is another issue entirely tho (we can talk about that later). There was one problem… and it was an irritating one. I had tried dropping down to farm irritators several times, but I’d usually just climb back up empty handed. Alas, after maxing out my 2nd irritator event she’s here. There is something more important that this creature represents tho… and that’s teamwork. I honestly think I’d be waiting for the next event sometime in 2019 to unlock this unique if it wasn’t for the generous contributions of my alliance… and for that can’t thank them enough #goSD
regarding Trykosaur:
This was another Dino I had wanted since launch too, but I knew there was something missing. It just wasn’t all that it could be, until 1.5 anyway. Requiring close to 3K T. rex dna to go from level 15-20 was no easy task, especially when another unique was rex dependent. This amount of DNA could’ve easily taken my indoraptor from 27 to 29, but I knew I had to pursue this monster regardless. Anky made this one a challenge too, but again hard work paid off here. I knew exactly who I’d be gunning for on all of the armored events. Welcome home tryko, I’ve been waiting for you!
regarding Thor:
I obviously didn’t want this one since launch but after seeing how successful other players were with it, I couldn’t ignore it anymore. This coming from someone who hasn’t darted a single allo or Tarbo since June! (This again wouldn’t have been possible without my alliance… or the perfectly timed Fierce Event, I did some serious grinding and went 60/60 on this one!)
I had debated making Thor though because I’m absolutely in love with my utahsino and seeing it’s epic make another legendary from scratch, and then be used for another unique was a conflicting thought. Now that I’m here though, I have absolutely zero regrets.
I know that was a long read and thanks for listening, but in short:
Hard work pays off, patience is key, and team work means everything…
Enjoy the video of them hatching y’all!!
