Which Egg is Best for Legendaries?
- Best Overall: Royal Egg (6% chance, always available).
- Best Event Egg: Summer 2026 Egg (10% chance, limited time).
- Best Guaranteed Legendary: Golden Egg (100% chance, requires star rewards).
- Best Value for Money: Pet Egg (2.5% chance, cheap).
Hatching Strategy
- If you have limited bucks: Buy Pet Eggs (cheaper, decent chance).
- If you have plenty of bucks: Buy Royal Eggs (higher chance, better return).
- During events: Save event currency for event eggs – they have higher legendary chances.
- Star Rewards: Save stars for Golden/Diamond eggs – guaranteed legendaries.
Pro Tips
- Don't buy Cracked Eggs – they have the worst legendary chance.
- Hatch in bulk – some players believe bulk hatching increases legendary chances (anecdotal).
- Use Lucky Potions (if available) – they slightly increase rare drops.
- Trade legendaries you don't want for ones you do – trading is more reliable than hatching.
