Q: How do you get Gold/Silver Dragons?
A: When you have at least one Ancient Dragon (Level 70+) a separate menu will appear where you can buy Silver Powder for 50,000 Aura, or Gold Powder for 100,000 aura. You can buy unlimited quantities of powder as long as you have 1 ancient dragon, and provided that you can afford it.

*NOTE: You can only buy Powder using the original element auras. You cannot buy it with gold or silver aura.

Q: How many times can the powder be used?
A: You can only use the powder on one dragon, then the gold/silver powder will go =poof= and out of existence... and then you'll need to buy more if you want another one of these metallic dragons. -v-

Q: Which dragons can it be used on?
A: G/S Powder can be used on any dragon of any stage except Egg Stage.

Q: Will the dragon stay Gold/Silver even if it reaches another stage?
A: Yes, for example, if your Teenager Stage dragon turns Adult, it will remain the same element.

Q: Where does the Gold/Silver Aura show up?
A: Once you have a Gold/Silver dragon the box with the aura will show up in the boxes next to your regular resources- If you only have gold aura, it will simply appear to the right of your green aura resource box. If you have only silver aura, however, the Dragon Scales and all of the rest of the normal resources will move to the left, the Dragon scales occupying the once empty box, and to the right of the green aura the silver aura box will show up, leaving a final, blank space to the far right, which will be the seat of the gold aura once you have it.

However, interestingly, even if you don't own a G/S dragon- if you own an item that is made from G/S gems, or if you managed to get hold of the special Aura (via Resources Market...) the resource icon will show up.

Q: Can you get G/S aura from lotteries?
A:

Quote from: Thaz
Silver and gold aura never appear in the lotteries. But maybe I can program some special lottery games for that.
But you'll need a lot of luck for them.

As of writing this, no, but there is a possibility that in the future you might be able to get G/S aura from the lotteries.

Q: What are the uses of Gold/Silver aura?
A: Like regular Aura, you can use them to create rather spiffy items. However, the items made from Gold/Silver have the same percentages as with normal items.

NOTE: Also, once you have a G/S item, the column for the element will show up in the item checklist.

Q: Can you change your dragon back to its original element if you make it Silver/Gold?
A: Right now, it seems that there is no way to change back your dragons. However, it seems like you are free to change your dragon from silver to gold elements, or vice-versa. But if you decide to revert from gold to silver, you'll revert back to a 50% resource increase, the rates won't add up. You'd be wasting a lot of resources, anyways.

Q: Can you sell back the items to the factory for G/S Aura?
A: Apparently there wasn't an option for Gold/Silver Aura, even if you owned a Gold or Silver Dragon.

Q: Can you sell the G/S Powder after you buy it?
A: You cannot sell the powder once you have bought it.

Q: Are gems bought with G/S Aura correspondingly colored too?
A: Yes, the gems will show up gold/silver also, as G/S items can be made from them too.

Q: Is there a resource production increase for G/S dragons?

A: There is a 50% aura production increase for silver dragons.

For gold dragons, they produce twice the regular amount of aura! (100% increase)

This applies to aura only, though, they produce the same amount of species-specific resources.

Unlike items, which add aura according to the base resources your dragon produces, the silver/golden dragon bonus stacks with the items.

Q: Why can't I search for G/S aura in the resources market?
A: You must have a G/S dragon, aura, or item to search for offers on the resources market that offer G/S aura.

However, You cannot ask for silver/gold aura in the resource market, regardless of whether the G/S aura icon has showed up for you or not.
