Kung Pow Quahog 101: Boss Battle – Golden Dragon

Hey there Dragon trainers!

With Phase 3 of the Kung Pow Quahog event underway, you might feel there’s something breathing fire down your necks. And you would be right, as there’s a new Boss  to battle as the Golden Dragon has descended upon us, and I’m here to help you appease him.

The arrival of this new Boss isn’t a surprise as it was hinted at during Chinese New Year, but he’s going to be tough to appease at the higher levels as you need a variety of resources to give as offerings. But appeasing him at 1X – 3X should be achievable quite quickly freemium. I’ve already managed this and don’t yet have all the buildings that drop offerings, so that’s a positive, but on the downside if you want to appease at anything above this well you’re going to need to delay attacking while you build resources, unlock  Billy Banks or have all the drop buildings.

So put on your fire-proof breaches and follow me as I show the Golden Dragon us Addicts needn’t fear him as we take a look to see exactly how to appease him and of course what he will be dropping during this event.

GOLDEN DRAGON 

The Golden Dragon has already been hovering menacingly above our sidewalks, but his timer will be activated when you reach Pt. 1 of the main Questline, The Most Mojo in the Dojo. At this point you will trigger the side Questline Golden Opportunity and tapping on GO will bring you up the Golden Dragon’s information box.

GENERAL INFORMATION ON THE GOLDEN DRAGON

There are currently two freemium character costumes and one freemium character that can collect the required offerings, Gold, Incense and Fortune Cookie, these are Dojo Peter, Samurai Quagmire and Billy Banks and there’s 3 buildings in the temple that will also help with drops, these are the Kung Fu Zoo, the Pounded Car Lot and the Splashy Koi Pond.  You will also be rewarded with 1 of each offering during battle rounds with Kung Pow Chicken. You’ll find a full breakdown of where to get offerings later in this post.

The amounts of offerings needed will be the same in every players game, but the offering used at a particular level may differ. Many players report success in these battles by stocking up on a bunch of the resources before attacking, I’ve personally done this but this strategy usually depends on the slumber time, which in my game was just a little over 5 hours. But as I said hitting the 4X and 5X will be very difficult at first but 1X,  2X and 3X will be very possible as the drops are always. Thank you TinyCo.

The rewards are less generous than some recent Boss Battles, so it’s going take a lot of effort to get all those Red Envelopes needed to unlock the Golden Dragon character. But you’ve got until the end of the event so don’t panic.

OFERINGS LEVELS

The amounts you will need to defeat him at levels 1X through to 5X are as follows:

But remember you only have 28 hours to defeat the Golden Dragon up to 5X and in my opinion freemium players just can’t collect enough stuff to get anywhere near there this early in the phase. But just keep giving offerings at the levels you can OR stockpile and delay offering until you’re ready.

REWARDS

The goodies he drops  are three-fold, there’s Chopsticks for buying items in the store, Workout Tapes for unlocking Billy Blanks and Red Envelopes to unlock the Golden Dragon character.

What you will get at each level is as follows, but bear in mind if you no longer need an item it obviously won’t drop.

You will need 15 Workout Tapes to help unlock Billy Banks and 75 Red Envelopes to unlock the Golden Dragon character.

ATTACKING THE GOLDEN DRAGON

The battle modus operandi is similar to that of previous boss battles, click the Golden Dragon when he is awake and you will get the offerings screen. It will tell you 1: What item and how many of them you need to offer him at that level, 2: The rewards for appeasing him at that level, and 3: How much time you have left before he disappears.

Once you have gathered the required offerings, in the example below it is 2 Gold, the give offerings button will appear. Simply tap it and collect your rewards.

You have 28hrs to appease the Golden Dragon to the highest level before the Golden Dragon will go for a “Nap” (cool down).

During the Golden Dragons’s nap time you will see him asleep like in the picture above, if you tap on him it will bring you up the awaken box, this is where you can speed up his return with clams, and if you use this option he will return at the level you were appeasing at before his nap. The image below is from my game and shows it would cost 110 clams to bring him back at Level 4X. It will cost different amounts of clams depending what Level he was on when he went into his nap. I never use this clam option personally but obviously that decision is yours to make in your game.

If you don’t use clams to awaken  the Golden Dragon  from his nap he will come back at Level 1x.

Golden Dragon woke from his nap just a little over 5 hours in my game.

And there you have it the all the info about the Golden Dragon and his drops. How are you getting on appeasing the fire-breathing winged menace? Are you winning the battle or will you be needing hosed down  before the next round?
