Dragon HP and Exp Comparison

Is there a scale out there where you can compare how much HP you gain vs. the Experience you spend per mounts?

For example (Star count):

White Bear: 1k 2k 4k 8k = lvl 4 = 20k HP (Spent 15k EXP)

Rhino: 2k 4k 6k = lvl 3 = 18k HP (Spent 12k EXP)

Dragon: 5k 10k = lvl 2 = 16k HP (Spent 15k EXP)

So this illustrates that for the same amount of exp spent, you gain more from a lower mount?

Am I reading this correctly?

Given that no one will probably ever go to 15 stars, why would anyone buy the dragon mount if you can gain more HP for the overall same experience?

No you are not quite right but close
for the dragon
when you buy it
you get 8k hp
then 2500 exp takes it to 1 star and adds another 8k hp for a total of 16k hp
then 5k more exp takes to 2 star and adds an additional 8k hp for a total of 24k hp for a total of 7500 exp
then 10k more exp takes you to 3 star and adds an additional 8k hp for a total of 32k hp for a total of 17500 exp

to the best of my knowledge the exp form one level to the next doubles and the hp added is a constant base amount.

So $438k dollars in gems will get you a 15 star dragon
or 5 free feeds a day for 442 years will get you a 15 star dragon

maybe thats why 'speed' is a factor in it?? but if u did max out - you would see a difference - maybe thats what they are banking on us spending for??

yes i miscalculated.

however, it would be nice to see the accumulated experience spent per hp gained.

Nevermind, I claculated assuming dragon was 5K XP ladders that doubled, not 2,5K.

then open up calculator and note pad
or a spreadsheet and do it.

either way ITS RIDICULOUS how much it costs even to get the white horse to 15 stars much less the dragon. I bought a dragon today. In 4 more days it will be 1 star 10 days later it will be 2 stars a 20 days later that it will be 3 star. 40 days later later it will be 4 star. If im still playing after that we shall see. Im not spending 15 gems to tame the thing. They need to adjust this to more reasonable amounts for all mounts not just the dragon.

It's funny because I claculated that XP looks like an emoticon

We'll look into mount scaling in the future.

GREAT NEWS!!!! thanks

There is a post from Herby on another tread that says that buying the Gems to bring the Dragon all the way up is about the same as buying a house, and you can not get a mortgage for the gems.

idk about the speed...i was racing a tiger the other night to chase LadyG, n we both got there at the same time lol (yes i was on the dragon)
then again, where else do we need speed...so not much concerned about that :)

Someplace in the forum there's a neat comparison of dragon and bear feed/HP progression comparison.
I can't find it; could someone please point me to it?

you all start with the assumption things are intended to be maxed out at some point.
perhaps the INTENT is for it to be effectively open ended ...
and stay that way so they don't have to add a patch to extend it again.

Just a thought
