Dino Fusion

Crystal Fusion Building
Fuse Dinosaurs

"combine two dinos to create a single more valuable dino egg"

This building is special because

When the fusion is in progress :
 * Each village can only have one
 * If not needed, it can be saved in the Inventory
 * By having the building in your village, you can fuse 2 dinos to get a new higher-tiered dino
 * The crystal fusion habitat can NOT be saved to Inventory
 * The fusing dinos can NOT be fed / raised / sold / moved
 * The habitat(s) where the fusing dinos came from can NOT be stored to Inventory
 * A new egg hatched from the Dino Den can NOT be placed in a habitat that a fusing dino came from if that habitat was full before the fusion process began
 * Dinos may earn [[File:Buildings icon coins.png]] while fusing in some cases, please check what applies to your Dino Fusion.
 * Fusing dinos can assign / fire workers

The Crystal Fusion building is another method to obtain crystal cost Dinos or rare Dinos. Dinos can be fused so long as they have been fed to level 4 or higher. The common Dinos that are hatched most of the time are: Mammoth, Stegosaurus, Ankylosaurus, and Parasaurolophus. It is easy to "level up" a baby to Level 4 in 1-2 Days with the new updates.

Crystal Fusion allows you to take 2 x "level 4 or higher" Dinos and "fuse" them together to make 1 crystal value dino.

Each Dino is now assigned a "tier". You can take 2 Dinos of the same tier and "fuse" them together and get a crystal value Dino of the next tier up. The fusion, if successful, always results in a new dino egg 1 tier higher than the dinos that were fused to make it. You will never go backwards or stay at the same tier. If the fusion fails, the Dinos are retuned to the habitats where they came from and your fusion money is returned.

'''NOTE: There have been many reports of dinos being fused and resulting in the same tier dino, (e.g. Tier 1 + Tier 1 = Tier 1). This has reportedly been fixed.'''

Fusion costs. If the Fusion fails, you are refunded your coins and you get back your original Dinos. You can try immediately again to fuse until you are successful. Once you get a "fusion" a purple crystal appears above the Dinos and you know you were successful.

When successful, Fusion removes the 2 original fusing dinos and coins and gives you a brand new egg of Dino (Rare Dino). If the Fusion fails, you get all of your dinos and / back. (Note : Using for Hurry Finish will not be returned if the Fusion failed)

Build Dino Fusion
How to find Dino Fusion building:
 * Your Village must have Dino Den in the village land (not just in Inventory)
 * You must have a minimum version 1.12. Please upgrade the game.
 * Dino Fusion is inside the menu (Mallet icon) > Dinos > Buildings

Steps to Fuse Dinos
Steps : Remember that if fusion is successful, both Dinos and are LOST and a new dino egg of higher tier comes to the family. Congratulations!!
 * 1) Select 2 dinos to be fused (you can only fuse the same tier dino, refer below for tiers)
 * 2) Consider boosting your chances for success with crystals (this is an option but will guarantee the success of the fusion)
 * 3) Fuse these 2 dinos and get 1 dino egg if the fusion is successful

'''You can NOT choose which new dino you get. It's totally random.'''

If fusion is unsuccessful, both Dinos are returned and the is refunded.

As of Version 1.12.1, the dinosaurs appear in the fusion screen based on which habitat they are in. The habitat that will show the first dino(s) will be the first habitat placed in your village. If you have a dinosaur that you do not want to fuse, move it to a different habitat and watch how the order changes in your fusion screen.

Additionally, the dinos will show up in the fusion screen in the order (left to right then down) that is shown when you open that individual habitat (top to bottom).

Tiers
Fusion can only be done when the both Dinos are in the same Tier. You can check the Tier by looking the Dino Description in the list of Dinos in Dino Den. This is the list of Dinos base on Tier:
 * Tier 0 : Ankylosaurus, Mammoth, Parasaurolophus, Stegosaurus
 * Tier 1 : Andrewsarchus, Brontosaurus, Brontornis, Dimetrodon, Protoceratops, Pterodactyl, Spinosaurus, Love Stegosaurus, Lucky Mammoth
 * Tier 2 : Archaeopteryx, Corythosaurus, Kentrosaurus, Triceratops, Homalocephale, Raptor, Woolly Rhino, Ingridia
 * Tier 3 : Bambiraptor, Giant Sloth, Pachycephalosaurus, Sabretooth Tiger

Information
Formula to fuse Dinos based on Tier:

Probability
The probability of getting a new dino seems to scale with the dino levels increasing from 4-10, however, this is still unconfirmed. Another alternative is probability being determined by level of maturity (Toddler > Teen > Adult).

Description of Probabilities: Boost success using crystals WILL make the fusion successful and get a new dino. (yet to be confirmed)

The following table summarises the probabilities observed by looking at the Hurry Cost and the Description (Thanks to Dino Breath in comment). The table shows the Probability (in words) of a successful fusion based on the levels of the two dinos involved, and the number of required to Boost Success For example: Fusing a Level 10 and a Level 4 Dino will get Fair probability and cost 56 to boost your chances of success.

Dino Stages are:
 * Baby (Not Fuse-able) = Level 1, 2, 3
 * Toddler = Level 4, 5, 6
 * Teen = Level 7, 8, 9
 * Adult = Level 10

Dino Eggs
If your fusion is successfull, you will :
 * Lose the 2 Dinos that were used in the process of Fusion
 * Get a new egg in the Fusion Building.The egg is waiting to be put in the Dino Den for hatching (If the Dino Den is still hatching another egg the fused egg will stay in the Fusion Building until the Dino Den is free).
 * See a picture of the Baby Dino once the Egg is in the Dino Den

This it the list of Dinos with the Egg Picture and Tier Information also. You can click the Header to sort by your preferences.

Tips

 * The Dinos that are fusing are not needed to be fed and therefore no worker is needed to be assigned to them. However, the worker for a fusing Dino can only be fired if the Dino is not on top of the list. Because the 1st worker is for the topmost Dino, the 2nd Worker is for the Dino 2nd from the top and so forth (thanks to below comment)
 * Try to fuse Dinos from separate habitat because the other Dinos in those Habitats can still earn coins.
 * The Dinos in the fusion listing are sorted base on the Habitat Code Name. For Example : Placid Plain 1st is the Habitat 1, Placid Plain 2nd is the Habitat 2, Playful Plateau is Habitat 11, Jolly Jungle is Habitat 14

Fusion Probability
Unfortunately, the fusion process is very magical and unexplainable by science in the prehistoric age! That's why the community needs to contribute.

Help us create a probability map (assuming there is a pattern that we can share).

Trivia

 * Some information might need to confirm and only base on educated assumption logic.
 * Launch on 14 June 2012, only for Apple User after Upgrade to Version 1.12
 * Launch on 15 June 2012, for Android User after Upgrade to Version 1.12
 * Launch on 20 June 2012, for Kindle User after Upgrade to Version 1.12

Problems

 * Dino Fusion does not result in a higher Tier Dino when successful. This problem has been reported and is already fixed.
 * Some users have reported that Dino Fusion is on Freeze or Standby Mode and can not do anything. Because of this, the related Dino can't be sold/moved/fed or raised. It's recommended to contact TinyCo Support. For further information, you can also see the Bugs article for hints from other players who have managed to fix the problem.
