1. Dragonspire Overview
Dragonspire: The New World of Dragons
Dragonspire is like a game within the game! It is a parallel world to your main Fortress, where everything revolves around dragons.
- New Base:
You build and manage a dedicated base with buildings and resources that are totally independent of those in your Fortress.
- Content and Activities:
You explore a large map, launch dragon raids against other players (with a separate leaderboard), complete missions, and summon new dragons via special portals.
- Dragons vs. Heroes:
Dragons train differently. They are simpler than heroes: no emblems, no costumes, no classes. On the other hand, their special skill can level up to 10 (instead of 8).
- The Links Between the Two Worlds:
Despite their independence, the two worlds help each other:
Help for Heroes: Your dragons can provide passive or active support skills to your hero teams.
Help for Dragons: Your heroes can be equipped as Riders for your dragons to boost their combat stats in the Dragonspire world.
2. Fortress
To go to Dragonspire, simply press the "Dragonspire" button at the bottom left of your Fortress screen (your usual base). Conversely, there is also a button in Dragonspire to return to the Fortress.
You can switch between the two at any time.

The Dragonspire world works a bit like your usual Fortress but is independent in terms of resources.
It has its own energy. The amount of energy is the same as the amount of energy in the Fortress. However, the use of the energies is independent of one another.

There are three basic materials: "Meat," "Iron," and "Recruits." These correspond to "Fish," "Dragon Stone," and "Baby Dragon" in Dragonspire. These are displayed at the top of the base screen.
3. Buildings

Others Portails
Currently, only one other portal is accessible with specific dragons. Find all the information about this quest and portals on the topic: Ancien Underoot Quest
Dragon feeders
A new feature has been implemented since V83 with the possibility of obtaining a dragon during summons similar to the functioning of HOTM. It changes every week. The summoning rate is 1.3%.
6. Dragon Assist and Rider
Assist Skills
Each dragon has two types of powers:
- The Special Skill: This is its main attack, the one it uses when you play with it in the Dragonspire world.
- The Assist Skill: This is a special bonus that activates when you use that dragon with your hero team in the Fortress (the classic game mode).
For this Assist Skill to be as powerful as possible, you must level it up to the maximum level, which is 10.
Dragon Rider
To make your dragons stronger in Dragonspire, you can assign a hero to them as a Rider.
- What's the Purpose?
Riders replace the classic troops and give a stat bonus to your dragon. The hero's special skills are useless here; only their base stats matter!
- Rarity Rule:
Be careful! The rarity of your dragon determines the maximum rarity of the hero you can pair with it as a Rider (a 4* dragon will only accept a 4* hero or lower).
- Best Choice:
Always choose the hero of the correct rarity that has the best stats for maximum power!
- Cap:
There is a cap on these stat bonuses.
For the exact details, please refer to the document created by BirksG.

7. Raising a dragon
Leveling up a dragon is less hassle than training a hero in the Fortress.
Dragons do not need:
- Classes,
- Emblems
- Costumes
- "Limit Break" (no extreme evolution)
Dragon Key Features:
- Their Special Skill (the attack they use in Dragonspire combat) levels up to level 10 (instead of 8 for heroes).
- They provide Assist Skills that your heroes can use in the classic game world (the Fortress).
- They also grant a Spirit Bonus (a permanent stat bonus).
Note: The "Special Skill" is used in Dragonspire combat, while the "Assist Skill" is the bonus for your heroes.

8. Dragon Map
The Dragonspire map system is very similar to the one in your usual Fortress.
- Current Content:
The map is divided into 22 regions of 10 stages each, plus outposts, making a total of 220 stages! More regions will be added with updates.
- Gameplay Difference:
The combat board is slightly different. You will find special tiles (boosters) that allow you to deal more damage. The way you use boost items also changes.

9. Dragon Raid
The Dragon Raid is like the classic Raid in your Fortress, but with dragons!
How Does It Work?
- Preparation:
You must build a Watchtower to participate.
- Combat:
You battle the dragon defense teams set up by other players.
- Energy:
Each battle consumes Dragon Raid Energy. You can store up to 6 of these.
Leaderboard and Arenas
- Competition:
There is a dedicated leaderboard (global, local, alliance). If you win, you gain cups and resources (Fish, Dragon Stones). If you lose, you lose them.
- Arenas:
The arena tier system is very detailed (Bronze I to Diamond III). The higher you climb in the arena (by gaining cups), the more generous the rewards you find in the abandoned treasure chests are.
Cup / Arena Name

Wanted Missions
There are two Wanted Missions in the Dragonspire game mode:
- Adventure Chest
- Raid Chest
- Idle Chests
The Idle Chests system passively generates rewards over time.
After a 24-hour period, the chest reaches its maximum reward generation capacity and becomes available for opening.
The chest cannot be accessed or opened before the expiration of this 24-hour timer.
Reward quality is scaled based on the highest province reached in both Dragon Adventure and Dragon Raids.
- Dragon Loot VIP
The Dragon Loot VIP status provides a bonus to the loot received from Idle Chests for the duration of the active VIP period (30 days).
- Dragon Shipment
Opening Dragon Idle Loot Chests contributes toward sending a Shipment to your Stronghold.
A shipment can be dispatched after opening a total of 14 Dragon Idle Loot Chests.
A notification will confirm when your shipment is ready for dispatch.
The tier of rewards received from a Dragon Shipment is enhanced based on your current Dragon Raid Tier and the highest area reached in Dragon Adventure.
The reward tier for the Dragon Shipment is definitively determined at the moment the shipment is sent.

11. Dragon Heart
Dragon Hearts are acquired by commending Dragons after they have reached their maximum ascension and level status.
Once a sufficient quantity of Dragon Hearts has been collected, a corresponding reward is automatically granted.
Commending Dragons of higher rarity yields a greater number of Dragon Hearts but requires a proportionally larger expenditure of resources.
The progress of Dragon Heart collection is unified and shared across all Dragons.
