Merge Dragons! Birthday Event

## Summary

**Merge Dragons! Birthday Event** is the eighteenth recurring out-of-Camp Event introduced to the game. The unique Event Rewards include the Dessert Dragons, the Chocolate Dragons, and the Dainty Crystal Tree Event Trophy.

For the duration of the Event, a new level becomes available. It can be accessed either from the Camp or from the Levels Map. The goal of said level is to collect enough Event Points by making Crystal Fruit to afford the 10 prizes offered (which, once achieved, are sent to the Camp in separate Loot Orbs with "Event Reward" text). The level can not be reset, although it requires no Chalices to begin or resume.

In order to participate, the players must have an active internet connection and 100 Dragon Power. Connectivity issues during the Event will result in prohibiting the ability to participate and freezing the progress in the level until connection is re-established.

## Unique Behaviors

Similarly to previous Events identical nerfs have been made in order to make the level harder:

* **Golden Apples Nerf** - Golden Apples don't create any Dragon Chests. In addition, the merging barely gives advanced tiers, and the rewards are Life Flowers, Bronze, and Gold Magic Coins.
* **Overall Dragon Chests Nerf** - as with the Golden Apples, not even a single Merge Chain will grant Dragon Chests. The only way to get more Dragons is to make Wonders.
* **Treasure Chests Nerf** - like the two above, removed the drops of Dragon Eggs from Treasure Chests.
