Dragon's Delight is a limited-time competition in which Trainers earn as many Happy Dragon points as possible by fulfilling Dragon requests. The points accrue towards milestone prizes.

Mechanics

Every 6 hours, from the beginning of the event, Trainers complete tasks to earn event Cupcakes. Pressing the Fill button above any tube spends currency to fill it. Each tube holds 3 of 5 ( ) possible items. A Dragon appears at each machine corner, requesting items. Items exiting the bottom row of tubes can be gifted to Dragons, provided they match their request. If available items don't match any request, pressing Trash All disposes of all tube's items, or a Dragon can be refreshed by pressing the button. Refreshing is free but takes 60 minutes, unless sped up using Gems.

Scoring

After all requested items are gifted to a Dragon, points are awarded, and the Dragon is immediately replaced. Points automatically accrue and appear in a counter 200 at the top of the event screen, which counts toward the Event leaderboard. A minimum score of 10 is required to participate and qualify for the grand (leaderboard) prize. Trainers are randomly placed in groups of 100, where the top Trainer(s) of each grouping receive the main prize of the event.

Points

Tasks

Six different tasks earn Cupcakes. Each task only gives a maximum of 200 once every 6 hours for a total maximum of 1,200 per cycle. Cupcakes are earned through collecting Gold (only when the Gold icon appears above a Habitat), harvesting Food from Farms, breeding Dragons, feeding Dragons, winning battles, and catching flying creatures. Pressing the i button provides further information on task fulfillment.

Cupcakes obtained from food tasks are awarded upon collecting Food, not planting it. Cupcakes obtained from breeding tasks are awarded upon pressing the Breed button, not upon moving an egg to the Hatchery.

↑ These values are calculated based on perfect cycles, assuming that there is no loss of time in between re-planting Food. However, one must take into account that collecting and planting Food does consume a certain amount of time, which depends on the Trainer's speed, therefore, the amounts will vary (lower than shown).

Points for Breeding Dragons

The maximum amount of Dorbs that can be received from a task in this event is 200 , thus, no higher number can be obtained. Any values over 200 are merely representative.

The listed Dragons are maximum two examples for breeding - there may be more than two available breeding options.
If only one Dragon is listed, this is the only option.

↑ Recommended Offspring indicates those Normally-Breedable Dragons with guaranteed combinations as well as Base Dragons that share the specified breeding time. It is suggested to breed these to obtain because there is at least one combination that will result only in the desired outcome, avoiding unwanted offspring with breeding times different than the one looked after.
↑ Other Dragons include Normally-Breedable Dragons that share the specified breeding time with the exception of Dragons with guaranteed combinations and Base Dragons. Dragons with breeding times over 18 hours non-VIP are not shown, as obtaining them will award the maximum of 200 within the highest level. They take longer to breed, but yield the same amount of as shorter options, making them a less efficient alternative.
