To breed a peridot dragon you’ll need a sandstorm and a blue fire.Un likely.
NOOOOOO!!!!!!!! ALL THE GEMSTONE DRAGONS BUT PERIDOT ARE PRETTY AND AWESOME!!! I WILL HATE YOU FOREVER, BACKFLIP STUDIOS!!!!! Sorry, my birthday is 8/31… But wait! Since it’s the last day of august, I can pretend my birthdays in September! Mwahahahaha! Loopholes!
lol at your Mwaaahahah loophole 🙂 I love loopholes 😉
what’s loopholes?
a loophole is sort of sneaky way around something that otherwise youd’d be stuck with… it is also a way OUT of something …it’s usually a means of escape or evasion;or opportunity of evading a rule or law. If you find a loophole you can get out of whatever the sitch is … 🙂 hope that helps
Agreed. But if the September dragon is hideous, I’m filing a complaint. Hey, wouldn’t that be awesome if I got a peridot dragon on my birthday, and got a whatever the next dragon is called dragon the day afterwards? Yes, I am too lazy to look up the September birthstone. What can I say? I’m on an iPad.
I don’t know what you think is wrong with him. I think he’s absolutely adorable!
It’s not Backflip Studios’ fault that you have the lamest birthstone for your birth month. And btw the peridot dragon is way cuter than the pearl dragon… The pearl dragon looks like an old woman with curlers in her hair… Peridot is so much cuter than Pearl so quit your whinging.
Agreed!
– The Doc
I second that
lol
And thanks guys, you made me feel a lot better about the Peridot dragon. I’m going to name him Bob. What do you think? I would name him Steve, but my Moss dragon is named Steve. Hmm…
Sorry, but this very ugly. Oh well. I still want it. And you’re lucky if it’s August where you live. I live in California so it’s only 6:35 on July 31. -_-
Oh, c’mon, it’s not that ugl- wow that thing is nasty looking. Still cooler than most, but way worse than the rest of the gemstones…does it come out at exactly 12:00?
And my birthday is in 30 days. That’s right. August 31. I’m pretending I have a bot august and september birth day. hey, at least all my girl gemstone dragons will have someone to flirt with… MWAHAHAHA!!!
As soon as I find out what it is I will post it and the running rumor all over the place so far is that IRON will def. be involved in the breeding 😉 that is completely UNCONFIRMED at this point though- but Im in NY and will post the SECOND I find out if it’s not already posted 😀
Can’t wait for the combo! I’ve only got one ruby dragon and that’s it….
Have 3 ruby, one gemstone, and 2 pearl. ^_^
Grrrrr….breeding gemstone dragons are such a challenge for me….
This is the best dragon ever if anyone calls them ugly I WILL KILL YOU jk
Agreed this is my fav
Im checking now to see if Ive been updated yet… I still only have the ruby in the marketplace but I wont leave you hanging lol 😀
The combo I belive it fog and Lava !!!
Or evergreen and iron !! That is what Dragonvale.net say it is .
There have never been multiple combos before for gem dragons.
They have not posted an egg shot and are posting guesses. We want FACTS here, not guesses.
– The Doc.
Well I’m I’m the UK and it’s been 1st aug for 10 hours but still no update or info 🙁
Ya still no update in Detroit either plus this is the coolest dragon yet
Hahaa I live in Detroit to
Looks cool…
That’s one ugly dragon.
Add me to trade gems: pernillapi in game center.
Yer ive only got 1 ruby still waiting to find out combo I agree it is ugly and I live in Australia it’s 9:33 here ATM
Lava and fog ……. Lava and evergreen=peridot
There have never been multiple combos before for gem dragons.
Are you going off Dragonvale.net? They have not posted an egg shot and are posting guesses. We want FACTS here.
– The Doc
Lava should be one of the dragons as the peridot is found in lava . Just a guess
Lava is one of them as peridots are found in lava. Not sure on the other one yet . It still hasn’t showed up in my store yet ugh still got the ruby
Ok, I’m in the U.S. it is 7:30am central time…..the ruby dragon is still in my market. I have sitting since 6am breeding the suggested combos a dragonvale.net…..decided to check the market. Have, I have been wasting time (and Gems!)….it’s not out yet?
Yes, you are wasting your time. You can still breed a Ruby if you need it, but until the Peridot hits the store, you can’t breed it, so save your gems.
– the Doc
I have more rubies than I need lol. I have more EVERYTHING than I need…..I should have looked in the market straight away…..this is stinky. I WANT that friggin dragon.
BFS probably wont release it until this afternoon- so don’t believe anyone who claIms to have the Peridot dragon what they most likely have is the highly common Exaggerator Dragon LOL or maybe the Super common ImFullOfBaloney Dragon 🙂 😉
LOL.
So True. I get so many fake claims on the first day of a gem Dragon release!
– The Doc
This dragon is not cute, he is fricken awesome! I really want that gragon! Please add me gm 4 gem, my username is MIBUGNU!
According to dragonvale.net the best combos for breeding rhe peridot are:
– Dragonvale lava dragon combined with dragonvale fog dragon
– Dragonvale iron dragon combined with dragonvale evergreen dragon
– Dragonvale lava Dragon with Dragonvale malachite dragon
Again, one of those might very well work, however, there have never been multiple combos before for gem dragons, and it looks like they are just guessing.
Until they post an egg shot, I’m not buying it. Trial and error folks! Let’s get cracking!
– The Doc
Also, the Peridot is not even out for ATTEMPTING to breed yet, so Dragonvalenet is just screwing with you. Check back in a week and see if they haven’t changed their answer to whatever the REAL answer ends up being. All we *know* is the right combo will PROBABLY combine 4 different elements, and have the potential to give a Rainbow dragon too. But there will certainly NOT be 3 working combos. There will be ONE.
– The Doc
I have seen reports of people getting it with evergreen and iron dont know if it’s true but it’s worth a try add me for a gem for gem I will send every single day trust me add calebqueen96
I’m seeing the same…..my market is still showing ruby……and the FB page has not been updated…..and none of the users on there have reported getting one. There are no egg pics up either…..and I would expect to see tons of them. I am ready to get cracking…..but, I’m not greeting any sound proof of anything except that I can still buy a ruby egg.
To breed a peridot dragon you’ll need a seaweed and iron.
Explain please…
I’m pretty sure you breed iron and evergreen
How could you POSSIBLY be “Pretty sure” about it?
There is no proof one way or the other about ANYTHING, and you can’t even TRY to get one yet.
(This is what I ave to deal with).
– The Doc
im guessing tree/evergreen+crystal/iron or even magnetic? 🙂 but crystal is so overused, im gonna try tree + iron first 🙂
What time does the peridot dragon come out
Well I just tried it and didn’t get but my brother tried and he got it using iron and evergreen
wow good for him! congrats! im gonna try breeding after they release it 🙂 cheers 🙂
I’m in CA and last month the new dragon didn’t show up until around 9:00am. It’s only 7:30am here. It’s a waste of time and gems to start anything until the dragon is actually released. Anyone who says they have the combo already is either full of bs or a beta tester who is breaking their NDA. (and they usually don’t do that).
Is the peridot Dragon out? Please explain
Besides you can breed dragons before their in the store I saw a picture on this site of the malachite dragon before it was in the store
the combination is lava and ironn because peridots are found in lava and get the intensity of their green because of their iron content
That one at least makes sense. It seems that all gemstone dragons are a combination of something about where they’re found, and something that has to do with their appearance. Like the pearl- snow for appearance, seaweed for ocean. Ruby- scorch f I’m calling it right now, diamond uses crystal.

Like the pearl- snow for appearance, seaweed for ocean. Ruby- scorch for appearance, chrome for where its found. I’m calling it right now, diamond uses crystal.
Wait nvm that doesn’t have four elements, does it? I’m blanking out on what iron has…
I like your idea, Jim I’m trying lava and rust.. Got a 24 hr egg 🙁 now I have to go to the bank and deposit $$ to buy more gems lol
Wait my brother just rushed his breeding and it turned out to be another ruby dragon
Iron and evergreen doesn’t give u ruby!
Thank goodness there is finally a boy gem dragon!!
What time is the peridot dragon in the market
It isn’t out here in CA yet. If it is like last month it should show up between 9am and 10am PDT.
still isnt out here in uk either, hoping its soon:-( anyone know the combination yet?
Dear momma bug did you know I got noon dragon using lichen and crystal I doubt anyone knew that
Ps my name is mousam1 friend me on game center every one
By noon dragon I mean moon dragon
It’s up
It’s out!!!! The peridot dragons out!!!! Aaaahhhhhh!!!!
I think its seaweed and metal or seaweed and malachite, because peridot is a water gem and it looks like both of the dragons – Obzehh
Evergreen and iron how to breed the peridot dragon or lichen and iron.
Ok Periodots are found in lava,
So Lava plus a Metal Hybred Dragon because it is unlocked at 17.
Yayyyyyy the peridotttt dragonnn isss innn theee markettttt!!!!!!!!!!!! 😀
