Read the landscape.

Dragons are protected, elusive, and usually invisible. Hike the marked trails, notice what they leave behind, and place cameras where movement seems likely.

Long-term field objective: collect one scale specimen from each of the seven dragons after you understand where and when they move.

Select a connected map location, then press HIKE repeatedly.
Place cameras at promising locations or midway along trails.
Let game time pass, review captures, and mark real dragon evidence.
Use recurring colors, places, times, and signatures to understand each dragon.
When captures reveal a reliable place and time, bring suitable bait, HIDE & WAIT, then approach carefully.
Secure all seven scale specimens. The case in the OFFICE tracks your collection.

The world advances only when you act. Nothing happens while this page is closed.

SPECIMEN FIELD NOTES

Observe. Predict. Intercept.

The empty slots are your unofficial long-term objective: secure one scale from each regional dragon.

Learn a pattern.Confirm several camera captures. Look for repeated locations, timestamps, feeding sites, resting places, and weather.
Prepare.Buy bait under Requisitions and carry it into the field. Meat suits the Farm Dragon; fish suits water, marsh, and cliff species; large bait helps with snow and mountain dragons. Forest bait is unreliable.
Intercept.Reach a likely feeding, resting, or home location before the expected movement window. Choose HIDE & WAIT. If nothing happens, adjust the time or location using your camera records.
Approach carefully.When a dragon passes, offer bait if useful, then approach. Some locations are unsafe—the Water Dragon must come ashore, while highland dragons require suitable gear.
Extract the scale.Land three timing holds in the green zone. Every attempt raises alertness. Back away if the risk becomes too high.

The Mountain Dragon is normally last. Confirm its home and build a strong camera record before attempting an approach.
