> [@Gems-of-War](#): > > Any future new Dragonite Egg Dragons will have a 1 year exclusive period with their own egg before they are added into this rotation. 1. No new Dragonite Egg Dragons, thanks. 2. Very nice to see you intentionally put a system in place to make sure the process is the same misery it was the first 2 times for the people who go after any future Egg Dragons at launch. Let me guess though, still no dupe protection past 4 copies right? You can code to make things worse but can’t code to fix the biggest hole in the entire system? ---

> [@Gems-of-War](#): > > We have added a new dragonite recipe in the Soulforge that will rotate each week with a different Dragonite Dragon (one of those available from either the Gem Dragon Egg or the Cosmic Dragon Egg). This is not ideal and makes me think devs will mark the “add a way to target specific dragons” as done and never address it again ☹ But, it’s better than what we have now, so thank you for that at least 🙂 ---

Did the amount of things you can buy from the PVP store each day change? I used to be able to buy 3 Dragonite packs a day and now it says only 1 a day? Same for the other things you can buy with Gold Marks. Since i go sometimes 2 or 3 months without a perfect run it was the only guaranteed way to get Dragonite because I don’t use gems to buy them ---

Don’t have hope for this update and don’t want to give it the benefit of the doubt. Devs have been tone deaf for a long time now and fixes never come or to late while also being quite badly done. Will be really suprised if things are actually better but won’t get my hopes up. That way it cannot be shattered either. ---

Actually I haven’t narrowed down the crashing. So far it’s any PVP battle but I haven’t tried much beyond PvP. ---
