Done nothing but breed lvl15s in both, all month, about 4 to 5 times a day, and no sapphires. Why do I play this game again? Ridiculously frustrating.
Hi there,
I understand your frustration. Here’s what works for me to get the gem dragons. I always use both caves the first few days only for the new gem dragon combo. If I don’t get it those first few days I then wait until the last few days of the month to try again. The first and last days of the month are the best times to get gem dragins and rare dragons. I also either level up the dragons just before breeding or decorate my park like crazy or I use the racing track and place first with dragons I am about to breed. It works… I’ve never missed one gem dragon since doing it this way. Also switch the places of the dragons. IE: the combo for this gem dragon is rain and mountain. Put rain in first and mountain second one time then flip them the next time. And put mountain first and then rain. I’ve gotten gem dragons in both caves too. Hope that helps. Good luck and hang in there!
Hey,
That explains how I got mine, LOL, I got it just now, and I was like What? Cause I thought you couldn’t get in October anymore but I was so happy :D.
You’re wrong it doesn’t matter the order. You can place dragons in any order. I have 16 gemstone dragons. And upgraded gemstone island???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ????????. ???????? ???????? ????????. ????????????????. ???? ????. ????
Over the 2 1/2 years now I have been playing this app (and I have three park, on Apple & android)
I have heard of NUMEROUS “tricks” that have been suggested.
From using hatchlings from unsuccful breeding attempt to above…and always alternate combos…
Try them all…I have different luck on all my parks. Its a game.
Historically, Backflip does a “Bring ‘Em All Back” towards the end of the year!

Hello,
I have been playing this app for 2 1/2 years. I have three parks (Apple & android)
NUMEROUS “tricks” have been suggested over that time.
From using hatchlings from unsuccesful attempts to the above….as well as alternate pairings.
I have tried them all and get results on some parks or none at all…I figure its a game.
Traditionally, there has been a “Bring ‘Em All Back” at the end of the year…so there’s hope!

Desperate says: Please I need help: I just got the diamond dragon but it turned out an olympus!!! Please, I’m begging, how do I get a gemstone dragon??????
Sincerely,
#love dragonvale but confused.
Any friends out there want to help to breed Galexy dragons? ??????????????????????????
Yeah, but I’m on an android phone?
I will but dont know how to friend you. Have android version on phone.
I do
Thanks for responding….I have a Dragon Vale account on my android smart phone.Have been trying to
I do have a few i can try but im on Apple phone under glori.com
It doesn’t … I spent probably 3 times the amount I could’ve bought the sapphire for, just to keep breeding the mountain and rain in succession so it works. (Wanted to feel like I accomplished something on here, rather than just paying for everything!) Its been past 20 times and I’ve stopped counting. Such a rewarding game….that’s why the only epic or special dragons I have I’ve BOUGHT. They definitely know how to steal your money. For a “cute” kiddie -type game like this, it disgusts me! Sorry, just had to get that out! ?
I got the Sapphire from breeding bluefire and crystal but you have very goot chances of getting other dragons too-i got two moon, a sun and a rainbow also but anyways im not complaining. if you are desperate for rare dragons you should try this it is the best combo for any rare dragon.
OMG THX SO MUCH! I got a Double Rainbow, a Blue Moon, a Rainbow, a Sun, a Sapphire, and an Emerald! Idk how I got emerald though.
But thx so much anyways
I got 3 saphire dragons , lunar eclipse , winter , and 5 double rainbows
I tried this once and got double rainbow on my first try (blue fire level 11 and crystal level 13 in EBI). Can’t wait to see how much more I can get!

Ayer many attempts I finally got a sapphire. I decided to grow the dragons to level 14 and then it worked.
Now. For like the 99999999th time, do you have to breed a Sapphire in a EBI or can it be bred in a NBC???
I don’t think you need the EBI; many of my epic dragons have come from the cave. I also don’t think you HAVE to get your dragons to high levels, it just improves your chances. And then, there is just randomness! I have been trying for the sapphire for almost three weeks, on the EBI, with level 17 mountain and level 18 rain… And still nothing! And others got it on their second try… 🙂 In my experience, though, if you keep trying, the gem of the month dragon tends to show up towards the end of month! Good fortune…
You can breed it in either the epic breeding just increases chances for rare dragons (ie: rainbow), you will have a better chance in the epic breeding but it is not needed.
Thank you sooooo much GreenRay and Justin, your the only people who has told me, thank you so much, cause Iv been trying for a Sapphire on EBI and NBC like so many times and all I ever get is ice dragons, but thank you again 🙂
Ikr? All I ever get is ice dragons, too ;(
Me too only ice ????
Does it have to be rain and mountain? Has anyone gotten it with mountain and fog?
Unfortunately yes, my mum and sister tried that multiple times, but then tried rain and mountain and got it, I’m still trying, breeding a rain is easy because its more common then a fog, good luck on getting a sapphire 🙂
thanks! good luck to you too 🙂
Thank you 🙂 ,now Iv tried for a Sapphire for ages, AND STILL NO SAPPHIRE, I tried 1000 times for cotton, nothing, Sapphire, nothing yet, mum and sister have on the same day! But the day my sisters Sapphire hatched, she attempted an amber, and she got an amber, ow well, I better not give up hope, good luck everyone 😉
Add me I have the dragon tree gem for gem only I have 5 openings left: *Nickol
I am in the same boat…trade twice a day for the entire month and never able to get the Sapphire. I have a th game as well as an iPad game. No luck on either. 🙁
Ok 🙂
I finally got it after trying for 28 days!!!! Took forever but I finally got it!! Soooooo Happy!!!
I still can’t get it 🙁 AND ITS THE LAST DAY 🙁 🙁 🙁 🙁 ………………….NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Please give me a hint on how to breed it in EBI, Iv tried soooo much times, and I can’t get 1, no matter if rain or mountain first and second, I CANT GET IT, NOOOOOOOOO X 999999999999999 🙁
is there any way to share gems on an android with no gamecenter?
Add people on facebook and then you can.
I got it after spending over 30 gems to speed up my cave lol
Another annoying question, sorry guys, does anyone know redeem codes apart from Dv117 and 2years ? I don’t have anywhere near the cost of a Sapphire dragon, and I tried, the time I will have to wait is 10:16pm, Iv got like 1 or 2 gems, spent on trying to speed up breeding for a Sapphire, mum and sister both got a Sapphire on the same day, but I attempted a cotton, and that never worked, I’m not going to be bothered cheating, so I just wonder any useful redeem codes, and also dads not gonna spend money on a game, so now I’m frustrated 🙁 , and don’t be bothered telling me a hack web sight because they’re all FAKE!!!!! And Sapphire dragon is my FAVOURITE BREED!!!!! And I just can’t miss out, good luck everyone who is trying for a Sapphire 😉
I just spend 50 gems trying ti speed up the breeding with unsuccessful I hate this is unvelibeble you spend hours and hours tying to get gems but when you spend it you realize that you are losing your time. They should reward often for those hours spend waiting for breeding or hatching eggs. Also if you make win a race usually just win food.
Dude……. it may take AGES, but if u keep on trying with this combo (rain+mountain) u might get it next year in the next September. Good luck dude!
Yes I totally agree, it’s my favourite dragon, and I tried as often as possible until I had 0 gems, I had around 67-74 gems or something
Try going through thousands- I still have no sapphire and now no money
Hi guys! Rain and mountain worked 4 me but it took AGES. Anyways try it. U never know it might work. This is special 2 me coz it’s my only gemstone dragon lol. Any other gemstone combinations plz tell coz I really need them. Thanks StarstoneFireyKestrel xxx
Hey starstonefierykestrel, try blue fire and crystal! It worked for me on emerald! But it did take me a while, so patience is needed
try evergreen and quake for amber, cactus and firefly for i… ice and mine for diamond, and also mud and lava for opal, etc
WOO HOO! I got mine on like the five billionth time! Still, at least I got it! YAY!!!
Lucky you, I missed out til next year 🙁
Ok, trying for Saphire Dragon. Bred Rain and Mountain one time,no go. Then reversed Mountain and Rain, got a Lunar Ecllipse. Just never know
My son has been so lucky over this weekend, he got the turquoise after two breeds, opal on second breed and now got sapphire with Mountain lvl 17 and Rain lvl 15 on second breed.
so i just got one….first try EBI….24hours with Rain and Mountain at lvl 15 each today…awesome
Trying this combo, rain + mountain + EBS = 48 hours = double rainbow dragon. Didn’t expect that.
First try on the first day of September with rain and mountain in breeding cave both dragons at level 14. I didn’t think id get it on the first try!
yay first try 🙂
Tried mountain and rain (both level 11 in BC) and got 23 hours, and it looks like the only thing possible is geode
Can’t get anything good withy this
How long does the breeding take to get a saphire dragon
I have both islands working on this with the rain/mountain combo. No luck yet. Fell free to befriend me on Gamecenter at el supremo0227
I tried it and got a double rainbow dragon score!!!
I got a sapphire using rain+mountain,I tried it again and go it
Ok i kinda hate you!!! What levels? In the nbc?
Got the sapphire first try, rain lvl 13 and mountain lvl 13 in that order. Epic breeding island 🙂 good luck! Not always so easy but the epic island definitely helps!
Definitely not true epic doesn’t help jack and leveling up and trying all day and night for weeks doesn’t help either
Thank you! After a few days of none stop breeding, I’m finally getting one! I already have a name picked out and everything!
I have a double rainbow dragon, rainbow, dawn, blue moon, seasonal, summer, midday, moon, sun, and ovalith, but I can’t gat the sapphire dragon????

Lol! I leveled up both from 6 to 16 and didn’t do anything the 20 times I tried!!!
