    I've raced a few times since getting the Kairos just for the XP (I'm still on level 39) and I've noticed I never see gems on the wheel anymore. Is this the same for everyone? Also, the amount of XP on the wheel is pretty low too. Not worth the trouble at all. I'll eventually get there from the Coloseum I guess.

    I also miss the zoom-out feature in DragonVale. It was fun seeing all the islands together on-screen, but I guess it was memory intensive so they took it off. I wish BackFlip brings it back as an option though.

    Same here, went from level 35 to 40 from the xp while trying to get Kairos. Also won tons of gems which can be used to purchase a missing or last fragment. I read somewhere you can gain lots of xp's by purchasing a volcano and then reselling it at half the price. You lose 5,000,000 each transaction, but it speeds up your leveling. If you have lots of cash, then go for it.

    You can also buy $5 million of food in a large farm. It takes an hour to grow and you get 2.5 million XP (same as volcano.). Takes longer than just buying and selling volcanoes but you end up with all the food.

    I am so glad they have a gem dragon with short fails this month. It was nice getting 2 so readily.

    I just got the Topaz! I got it in the EBC with a level 15 Firefly and a level 6 Cactus. I know that the levels don't matter, but I found its disparity kind of funny.

    Ha ha. Thanks. I'm working on a Gold Olympus as well (my second.) Seems like a hopeless cause. That is a tough dragon to breed. My display Malachite egg is giving me hell too, been trying for awhile for it.

    Glad to see so many of you have gotten your topaz! Been breeding constantly with no success :( oh well. At least the breed times are short. I haven't seen anything an the eclipse dragon. Did I miss something?

    When is this eclipse due? I was going to breed two more Rainbows for my rainbow island, but I don't want to tie up both caves if it's due soon...

    Got my third Topaz yesterday, first time I've managed to get three of the same gem dragon, I usually still need to get my first with a few days to go lol.

    The Australian total solar eclipse is November 13, so you have plenty of time to breed other things. Congrats on your topazes.

    Finally got both my second Topaz and second Malachite this morn. Been tring for the Mala for a month. Both are for display.

    Next I need my second Gold Olympus which will then be used to breed a third for display. Then my display island will be complete until something new comes along (aka Eclipse.)

    I realize easier said than done. I got my first Gold Oly relatively easy. But the second has seemed almost impossible.

    Happy happy dance just got my second topaz so have my display egg on it's way :D:D:D
    Both my topazes came with fresh dragons levelled up to seven, had plenty to choose from with all the fails!, so if you're having no success so far try ditching your current breeding pairs and start afresh with new ones. I have a theory that new pairs have one ( relatively) quick gem in them, extra ones a then a real struggle. Has anyone else noticed this?
    Good luck to everyone still trying :)

    That is such a cool dragon! I hope it won't be too hard to get.
