Dragon Shrine

==Summary==
Dragon Shrine is a feature in Merge Dragons!, which was first released as Beta with Version 8.5.0 (13th of May 2022), and became available to everyone in Version 8.7.0 (24th of June 2022).
Although the concept has been reworked and significantly improved, it can be said that this is a reincarnation of the discontinued Royal Egg Bank feature.
You can open the Dragon Shrine by tapping the icon on the top center left of the screen.
The player can earn various rewards for their Camp by collecting Wishes and opening Dragon Shrine Chests, including:
* New exclusive Trophy Dragon breed: Pearl Dragons.
* Starting from the Version 10.4.0 (20th of May 2023) Dragon Shrine also features the Bluebell Dragons breed.
* Decision Eggs (see below for details), Completion Bonus (see below for details), level 3-4 Fruit/Dragon Trees and Twin Life Flowers.
==How Dragon Shrine Works==
Upon entering the Dragon Shrine after tapping the icon, you will be shown a list containing of the 9 rewards and a collection bonus for a total of 10 rewards. Each reward requires a certain amount of Wishes. You will need a total of 750 Wishes (15, 15, 30, 30, 90, 120, 150, 150 & 150) to get all the rewards.
To receive the Dragon Shrine Chest with all rewards you've earned you must spend 200 Gems.
You can buy your Dragon Shrine Chest anytime (example: Shrine's icon after you've earned 7 rewards ), but once you have earned all the rewards it starts a 24 hour timer (example: Shrine's icon with a timer ) within which you must purchase the Chest or lose your progress/Wishes you have collected.
Every time you buy the Chest you get the chance to upgrade your Dragon Shrine to the next level and get better Chests/rewards. There are currently a total of 6 levels of the Dragon Shrine.
Upgrading the Shrine doesn't increase the price of the Chest or the amount of Wishes required.
==Collecting Wishes==
Wishes (points) can be collected by tapping on the three types of Wish Sparks that give either 2, 4 or 10 Wishes. These Wish Sparks can be obtained by variety of ways: 
* Opening any Chests (level 2 Nice Treasure Chests are the best, giving 4/sometimes 10 Wishes).
* Tapping Goal Stars (level 1-4 give 2/rarely 4 Wishes, level 5-6 give 4/sometimes 10 Wishes).
* Tapping Dragon Stars (give 4/sometimes 10 Wishes).
* Tapping Prism Flowers (give only 2 Wishes).
* Tapping Fruit Trees (give only 2 Wishes).
===Tap Wish Sparks instead of letting the game auto-collect them===
Wish Sparks which are auto-collected by the game only award half to amount of Wishes that they are worth. Hence it is better to tap the Wish Sparks yourself as illustrated in the picture below.
==Shrine Levels==
The Shrine can be upgraded to get better rewards in the Dragon Shrine Chest.
==Decision Eggs==
There are 4 types of Decision Eggs that can be collected as rewards from the Shrine. When you tap each of them you're presented with 3 options of Dragon Eggs/Nests to choose from. 
Decision Eggs of higher levels offer rarer Dragon breeds.
* Level 1 - Nest of Bronze Dragon breed / Trophy Egg* / Silver Dragon Egg (or) Mystery Egg
* Level 2 - Trophy Egg** / Trophy Egg* / Trophy Egg
* Level 3 - Trophy Egg** / Pearl Dragon Egg / Trophy Egg
* Level 4 - Trophy Egg*** / Pearl Dragon Egg / Nest of Silver Dragon Eggs (or) Mystery Eggs**
* If you are in Camp, level 1-2 Decision Eggs give Eggs you have unbubbled in the middle position. Any Egg works for this, including Tier 2 Eggs and Active Super Eggs. 
** These choices give you Eggs or Nests you have already bought with Gems in the language you are on. If you haven't bought any in your current language, you can get other stuff. There is currently a bug with level 2 and level 3 that causes Tier 2 Eggs of the Mycelial and Gluttonous breeds to be offered on the left side. 
*** There was previously a bug with the level 4 Decision Egg's first option. This was fixed in version 9.0.1. 
==Completion Bonus==
Completion Bonus is added to your Dragon Shrine Chest when all 9 rewards have been earned. There are 3 versions of Completion Bonuses.
Possible rewards include:
* Mystery Nest (Supernest)
* Tanzanite, Sapphire, Ruby Fire Mystery Nests
* Nest of Pearl Dragon Eggs
* Trophy Eggs
* Fountain of Legend
* Kattryx
* Super Egg Fragment
* The Gromblin
* Zen Temples
==Notes & Tips==
* Don't merge up Treasure Chests if you are trying to get Wish Sparks as level 2 Nice Treasure Chests are the best. 
*Every time you restart the game, loot of Decision Eggs will change. Don't open them immediately, restart game until there are will be reward that fits you 
==Trivia==
* The Dragon Shrine is a Shinto Shrine ⛩ that is said to enshrine Gods. In Japan pearls were described as white gems and were used as offerings to the gods.
