Zen Dragon Event

Summary[]

The Zen Dragon Event is the fifth recurring out-of-Camp Event introduced to the game. The unique Event Rewards such as the Rising Sun Dragons, the Shiba Dragons and the Temple Event Trophy are the main attraction.

For the duration of the Event, a new level becomes available. It can be accessed either from the Camp or from the Levels Map. The goal of said level is to collect enough Event Points by making Japanese Charms to afford the 10 prizes offered (which, once achieved, are sent to the Camp in separate Loot Orbs with "Event Reward" text). The level can not be reset, although it requires no Chalices to begin or resume.

In order to participate, the players must have an active internet connection and 100 Dragon Power. Connectivity issues during the Event will result in prohibiting the ability to participate and freezing the progress in the level until connection is re-established.

Guide[]

Written by Shaked

Konnichiwa minna san!

This time around the way to gain more Dragons is a tad different from the other Events but other than that it's pretty much the same, it took me 6-6.5 hours to end this Event, a pretty quick one, though I had a busy weekend so a bit late with this guide, sorry <3

Main Rules: Don't merge Plains Grass, unless the tile needs 500 Healing Power, when possible always merge in 5s, don't merge Shrines past level 2 Basic Shrine. Don't merge Fruit Trees past Young Fruit Tree, create a Tree Farm with them.

Start by tapping the Sticky Rice, otherwise the arrow above it won't disappear. Drag the Life Flower Sprout to the other two in the Dead Land. Drag the Crimson Dragon Egg to the other two also in the Dead Land and you're good to go.
Harvest Life Flowers for Life Essence and Life Orbs and create a Tree Farm. Your aim are 3 Fresh Graves on the main island. Once you get all 3, merge them for a Corwin's Tomb. It will spawn by time Necromancer Grass around it, so make sure it has place around it. Once 5 Necromancer Grass are in hand, harvest them for 5 Seeds of the Prism Flower. Then, wait for them to grow into Sprouting Prism Flowers, then merge all 5 for 2 Prism Flower Buds.
Harvest the Prism Flower Buds for Dragon Tree Leaves. Merge them non-stop until you get a Vermillion Dragon Tree. Have one Dragon harvest the tree as the other one would harvest the Life Flowers. Merge the logs you get for Tiny Cabin for Hedge Gnomes. Tap the Cabins for Bushes and have space around them to spawn more. Merge the Bushes until you get 2 Ruins of the Sky Palace. Tap them for Tanzanite Eggs and Nests. You should have in total about 6-12 Dragons, depends how lucky you are.
Continue to harvest the Life Flowers, either Twin Life Flowers or Brilliant Life Flowers are good, though with the latter a quadruple tap skills are required as you won't have many. Keep harvesting until you got 2 level 9 Life Orbs. Aim for the healing the Zomblin Caves and tap the Life Orbs so most of the land would be healed. Destroy the Caves, the Life Orbs loot can be merged for almost another level 9 The Life Orb of Heavens to complete the healing (continue to harvest Life Orbs for it). Otherwise just harvest for 3 The Life Orbs of Heavens without any further arrangement and you'll be good to go.
Drag all the Event related items to one side of the map. Destroy all the Zomblin Caves and drag all the brambles to the floating little islands on the edges, and any non-event related item (if you haven't deleted them already).
You should have now 2 Elegant Shrines, 2 Water Shrines, 1 Sand Shrine, 6 Basic Shrines and 1 Miniature Shrine. Merge the lower ones by the amount of Dragons you have. Drag them all to the edge of the map. Merge and open all the Japanese Chests, harvest all the Japanese Statues and open all the Capsules. Once you done you should have 2 level 8, 3 level 7 and 3 level 6 Japanese Charms, and more of the smaller levels.
Harvest the Japanese Shrines for more Japanese Charms. Once you got 1 Level 9 and 2 of Level 8 Japanese Charms you would have enough points to get all the rewards!

Sayonara!
