Dragon Codex

The Dragon Codex is a book of Dragons in the game, it unlocks after Breeding, Hatching, and housing the first Smoke Dragon. The primary function of the codex is to provide up-to-date information on Dragons. Once unlocked, the codex is accessed by tapping the button at the middle-right of the main Archipelago screen.

Codex Parts

The main parts of the codex are its tabs:

• Collections - Dragons that can be collected for rewards.
• Dragon Codex - The complete codex of all Dragons that have appeared while the Trainer played.
• My Dragons - All Dragons owned by the Trainer

The Leaderboard button, beside the codex tabs, is used to access the Dragon Collector Leaderboard.

Collections

Collections are made up of different groups of Dragons collected for various rewards. These collections are grouped into categories such as early game Dragons, all Common/Uncommon Normally-Breedable Dragons of an Element, Dragons required Breedable Legendaries, Dungeon-Exclusive Dragon, VIP-Exclusive Dragon, and so on and so forth. Some collections have stages, which allow for greater rewards upon completion of further tasks. Additionally, there also exist meta collections, meaning a collection completed through by completing collections. Completed collections are always listed below incomplete ones.

Showcased Information

Each collection displays the collection name, Dragon snapshot or full-size image for collection rewards, the currently collected Dragons count separated with a slash by the total in-game Dragon count, collection rewards, and the percentage of players having completed respective collections. Dragons receive a symbol once collected, and tapping collection reward Dragons only (un)hides the collection, instead of opening their Codex Entry.

Hiding

Collections are hidden by pressing the button, and unhidden using the button. When hidden, regular collections display only the collection title, while Meta Collections still display the reward Dragons and those necessary for completion, sub-collections are completely hidden. Hidden collections remain visible until deliberately unhidden, or when a new Dragon from a collection is hatched.

Meta Collections

Meta Collections are typically themed collections, where all Dragon's names and/or appearances follow that same theme. The only requirement to receive reward Dragons is to hatch and place the required Dragons.

Dragon Codex

The Dragon Codex tab provides an overall count of Dragons that have been, and can be, obtained (excluding Chronos or Clan Dragons) as well as a progress indicator. A snapshot of each Dragon appears below this, along with sorting and filtering options for easier searching.

The buttons at the right of the codex allow filtering:

• By selecting a Rarity:
  •          

• By selecting a specific Element (which shows any Dragon with that Element):
  •                

• By selecting a specific Source:

• • Normally-Breedable Dragons.
  • Boss Dragons.
  • Card Dragons.
  • Limited-Time Dragons.
  • VIP Dragons.
  • Dungeon Dragons (only Dungeon Shop).
  • Enchantment Dragons.
  • Campaign Map Reward Dragons.
  • Most Card Dragons obtained from Clan Events.
  • Arena Dragons.
  • Token Dragons (Only Permanent Token Dragons).
  • All (Dragons) to reset this filter.

• By searching:
  •  Search Dragon  - Text field to search by species name.

This tab has two unique filtering drop-downs:

• Default Order – Sorting by LTD Dragons first, and allowing Order by rarity sorting.
• Not owned – Sorting by Not owned first, and allowing All, and Not owned.

Note: Filtering is not reset automatically to the default view when the codex is closed, the Trainer must manually clear the search bar and set all other filters back to to reset to an unfiltered state.

Snapshots

Dragon shapshots each contain a mugshot, Elements, Skill levels, Type/Rarity, Enchantment Stars, Sigils (if equipped), an icon representing obtainment method (if not a regularly breedable Dragon), and a green checkmark if obtained. Non-obtained Dragons have a greyed-out snapshot and if they are a Limited-Time Dragon, Event-Only Dragon, or are offered in a promotion etc., display an availability countdown. The Elements of Dragons whose secondary Elements need to be awoken are visible, but grayed-out and marked with the icon.

Information for Dragons is viewed by selecting their snapshot, which opens their Codex Entry.

 See Codex Entries for information about what appears in codex entries.

Duplicates

The Codex allows purchasing additional Dragon eggs for any Dragon previously obtained, as long as these Dragons can be purchased in exchange for Gold or Gems. Boss Dragons and regular Dragons that can be bred normally or within a limited-time period, along with the active VIP Dragons, can always be purchased, regardless whether the Trainer has them on their islands or not. Boss Dragons can only be purchased once, unless exceptions occur, and only if they have been unlocked through defeating them in Normal Mode.

My Dragons

The My Dragons tab displays the snapshots of all Dragons currently owned by the Trainer, displaying the almost identical filtering and sorting options as the Dragon Codex tab.

Codex Entries

A Codex Entry is the Dragon Info or visiting card of a Dragon, which displays the entire information about it. They are accessed by pressing the snapshot or image in Dragon Codex tabs or from multiple other places including, but not limited to, Main Shop, Inventory, events, and by pressing the i button when visiting the Dragon in their Habitat

Information displayed (excluding Boss Dragons) includes level, rarity, Enchantment Stars, species name, given name, stats, Dragon Collector Points, Gold per Hour, Elements, codex description, skills and Sigils. In the bottom-left of the Dragon's image, the button displays the egg of that Dragon, and the button switches back to the current form.

For Dragons not yet owned, a button may appear at the bottom bringing the Trainer to the place where the Dragon can be obtained, the dragon cost, or text describing how the Dragon can be obtained. For owned Dragons, the following buttons appear:

• More Options – Opens a submenu of multiple other options:
  • Visit – Visit the Dragon in its Habitat.
  • Vault – Move the Dragon to the Vault (if space is available)
  • Rename – Rename the Dragon.
  • Sell – Sell the Dragon.
  • Move – Move the Dragon.
• Learn – Send the Dragon to Dragon Academy to learn and unlock Skills.
• Equip Sigil – Equip a Sigil.

In the top-right, there's also a button to

• – Opens the Augmented Reality feature.

Note: In the case of unobtained Card-Segment Dragon, in the Dragon Codex tab, a counter is shown under their image displaying the amount of Dragon Pieces currently had, separated by a slash from the total number needed to obtain that Dragon.

Codex Entries for Boss Dragons display its full image, name, Dragon Collector Points, its Powers, a short description options to:

• Sell - To sell the Dragon for Gold (no gems are recovered when selling, and use of its powers are lost).
