Any Merge Dragons players?

I'm addicted to this game! Been playing since March. Does anyone have any tips how to finish the events? I think I'd have to play it nonstop day and night to finish.

My strategy is to clear as much as I can at the beginning then when I can't clear any more by matching/dragging I leave the game playing and build up as many orbs as I can to clear the land.

But I can never get morer than one level 7 (Heaven?) orb and never got further than halfway through an event. It's so frustrating to spend so long playing an event then realise I'm nowhere near finishing it by the time it ends.

TIA for any tips.

I play. I love the event though they can get a bit tedious. Best thing I've found is to work on getting the life flower up to level 7 then tap tap fuckity tap! If you can get 2 of them then just get your dragons harvesting them you'll be great.

You generally need 5 or 6 level 9 orbs to clear it completely. And don't delete anything if you want to complete the 10 stars too as they'll have you needing to harvest something that you've deleted!

If you're on Facebook, join merge dragon community. They have loads of people full of advice on best strategies and they put up guides for the events within a couple of hours of them starting.

I play. I read on the Facebook page that you have to get a flower that produces orbs and harvest as much as you can. Keep as many first size trees as they produce seeds to make more flowers. Get a level 5 flower, you need to harvest 200 times to get a star out if the 10. You also have to always harvest in sets of 5 to get a star early in the game.
I have completed the last 5 doing this. I clear as little land as possible, using the items I have to clear. Then build up a fairly large orb to clear land. Make as many stage 1 trees out of the seedlings and harvest to make flowers. Try and get 2 dragons as soon as possible. I usually have to have at least 6 life orbs of the heavens. All the keys are there, but never merge until you’re sure you don’t need anything. Sometimes there are all clear squares under the clouds.
Join the Facebook page it’s very helpful.
Good luck!

I play Merge Dragons and I can just about finish the events on time now.

The important thing is to decide whether you try to get the event prizes or if you want to try for the star prizes as well.

For the main event prizes, you just need to clear as much land as you can in the beginning and then go after only the harvestable items, leaving the event to run.

If you want to get the star prizes as well, then it's a different strategy. You still want to clear as much as land as possible in the beginning, but make sure not to combine any harvestable event items. (Pink tree in the most recent event). Ideally keep combining flowers until you get the purple life flower the first evening. Then keep your phone /tablet going overnight, merging when possible. Over time it gets faster as you recognise the chains you need to open up shadow lands.

If you have some gems from gem farming (no need to spend money) then you can usually open up some shadow keys early on which gives you a head start.

There's a Facebook group called MergeDragons Community that has files and tips on every aspect of the game.

Thanks for the tips. I'll join the FB group. I usually try to complete the star prizes so next time I think I'll ignore those and just concentrate on getting the orbs.
