Temples are buildings, each associated with a different Element, that help Dragons with that element reach higher levels. Temples are necessary to feed Dragons past Dragon Level 10. This means that Dragons with two or more elements, corresponding with a Temple, cannot be fed past Level 10 unless each Temple is built.

Obtaining & Building

Each Temple is purchased in the Main Shop in exchange for a set amount of Gold, then placed on an island. After being placed, the building process begins wherever placed, and an amount of time must pass for it to finish. Once finished, the temple raises the available Dragon Level of its respective element to level 20. All Temples have a size of 5x5 squares, regardless of level.

Building Functions

The following function button appears when a Temple is selected:

1. Upgrade – to upgrade the selected temple (appears if an upgrade is available).

Upgrading

Dragons can only be leveled to a max level that their associated element(s) temple(s) allow. Once the highest allowed Dragon level is reached, its corresponding element(s) temple(s) must be upgraded to increase the Dragon's level limit again. When the requirements are met, upgrading is done by selecting a Temple, pressing the Upgrade button, then waiting the requisite time. After completion, the new level cap takes effect.

Maximum Dragon Level

The Dragon leveling maximum is the same for all temple levels:

Temple Level	1	2	3	4	5
Dragon Level Limitation	20	30	40	50	60

Cost comparison

Each upgrade costs a set amount of gold, the comparison, and totals for which are as follows:

Required Dragons & Level

Each Temple also requires a certain number of Dragons, with the corresponding Temple element, to be at a minimum Dragon level before that Temple can be upgraded.

Required Number of Dragons:

Temple Level	Element
1	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a	n/a
2	3	3	3	3	3	3	3	3	3	3	1
3	4	4	4	4	4	4	4	4	4	4	2
4	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	3
5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	5	4

Dragon Levels Required per Temple Level Upgrade:

Temple Level:	1	2	3	4	5
Required Level:	None	15	20	30	45

Temple Planner The DML Planner Temples function provides a way to plan which Dragons to feed to cover all Elements required to upgrade temples. For example, by using this function, it might be learned that feeding 3-Element Dragons, with certain Elements, allows all temples to be upgraded to the maximum, while wasting as little Food as possible. Read more about this sister project, the DML Planner made by Toomas, a DML community member.

Individual Requirements

Temples upgrades also award Experience depending on the Element it represents, takes a certain amount of time to complete, and can be upgraded a total of 4 times to reach the maximum level 5. Special Elements do not have Temples, though these Dragons have two other Elements that require Temples.

 

Even if a Special Element Dragon does not have its secondary Elements awoken, Temples matching those Elements still must be upgraded to level them. Dragons with unawoken elements do not count towards a Temple's required Dragon number, until their elements are awoken.

Storing & Selling

Once bought, a Temple cannot be Sold, nor it can be placed into Inventory. Temples become movable but permanent structures.

Moving

A single object is moved by pressing and holding it until move options activate, indicated by X buttons below it and move arrows on each side. Green move arrows indicate sufficient space in the currently chosen area to place an item, gray arrows indicate not enough. Move the object by dragging, or by pressing the move arrows or the destination, then press the or X button to accept or cancel.

Edit Mode moves multiple objects, once move options are activated as described above, after pressing the button. Moving or swapping instructions appear:

• Select one or more objects to move them at the same time.
• Swap two objects by selecting them and pressing the button.
• Store multiple objects in inventory by selecting them and pressing the Inventory button (for eligible buildings or objects only).

Dragging or pressing a destination a does not move objects in Edit Mode, the initial state is selection-only; instead, pressing the Move button enables these options, the base of all objects turns green or gray indicating if there's enough space to move the items to as a unit.

Selected objects are moved exactly parallel to their former positions, any destination must have the corresponding spaces freed for a successful move. The Inventory button only appears if all selected items are eligible for inventory storage, and appears below the last item selected. Objects cannot be selected from different islands at the same time.
