View source for Dragons and Wishes/en

'''Dragons''' grant wishes. You summon one by gathering a complete set of its '''Dragon Balls''' in its world, then choosing from its list of wishes. DragonMineZ has two main dragons: [[Special:MyLanguage/Shenron|Shenron]] on [[Special:MyLanguage/Earth|Earth]] and [[Special:MyLanguage/Porunga|Porunga]] on [[Special:MyLanguage/Namek|Namek]]. A second Porunga can be summoned in the [[Special:MyLanguage/Demon Realm|Demon Realm]] with the balls the Tamagamis drop. After the wish, the balls scatter across the world again.

{{Note|type=info|title=Default wishes|The wishes on these pages are the defaults. Dragons, Dragon Ball sets and wishes are data-driven, so a server can change a dragon's wishes or add new dragons (see [[Special:MyLanguage/Custom Wishes|Custom Wishes]]).}}

== How summoning works ==
{{Config|General Server Config|worldGen}}
# '''Collect all seven Dragon Balls''' of a set. They are scattered around the world spawn of the matching world: within 1,000 blocks by default, with one copy of each ball.
# Use a '''[[Special:MyLanguage/Dragon Radar|Dragon Radar]]''' to locate them.
# '''Place all seven balls''' within 5 blocks of each other. Once the whole set is together, the balls light up with a pulsing glow and chime. Then '''right-click one''' to summon the dragon.
# '''Pick your wishes''' in the wish screen: left-click a wish to pick it, and right-click to remove your last pick of that wish. Only the player who summoned the dragon can make the wish.
# The balls scatter again afterwards.

While a dragon is out, the '''sky of that world turns dark''': a starry night sky covers the whole dimension. It is only visual. The world's time doesn't change, so it doesn't bring night mobs, and the sky fades back once the dragon leaves. After the wish the weather clears and the dragon fades away in a white flash.

If nobody makes a wish, the dragon leaves after '''10 minutes''' and the balls scatter again.

== Dragon Balls ==
The game keeps track of every Earth and Namek Dragon Ball, wherever it is placed or picked up, and a lost ball respawns. Server operators can check where every ball is and top a set back up with <code>/dmzdragonballs</code> (see [[Special:MyLanguage/Commands|Commands]]).

The three '''Demon Realm Dragon Balls''' work differently: they are never scattered around the world and no radar finds them. Each Tamagami world boss drops one when defeated, and they don't scatter again after the wish. See [[Special:MyLanguage/Porunga|Porunga]].

== Radars ==
{{Main|Dragon Radar}}

|}

== Revive wishes ==
Shenron and Porunga can bring dead players back to life for good. The revive wishes only work on players who are dead in the [[Special:MyLanguage/Otherworld|Otherworld]]. When you open the wish screen it lists the dead players who are online, and a revive wish can't be picked while nobody is dead. After confirming, you choose who to revive: up to 3 players with Shenron, or 1 per pick with Porunga. Revived players lose their halo and are fully alive again.

== Dragons in the story ==
* The [[Special:MyLanguage/Frieza Saga|Frieza Saga]] quest ''Summon Porunga'' asks you to summon Porunga with the Namek Dragon Balls.
* The [[Special:MyLanguage/GT Saga|GT Saga]] quest ''The Cracked Dragon Balls'' asks you to summon Shenron with the Earth Dragon Balls.
* The '''Change Difficulty''' wish is the only way to change your story difficulty, and '''Reset Story Progress''' lets you play the [[Special:MyLanguage/Sagas|sagas]] again.

== Custom dragons and wishes ==
{{Main|Custom Wishes}}
Server owners can replace a dragon's wish list on their world, and add-on packs can add new dragons with their own Dragon Ball sets and radars. On such servers you may notice that:
* a Dragon Ball set doesn't have to have seven balls: it is complete when every star of the set is placed together;
* some sets never scatter on their own, and their balls only come from quests, bosses or other rewards;
* a wish can be limited to once per summon, even on a dragon that grants several wishes;
* besides items, wishes can grant Attributes, Attribute Points, Training Points or skill levels, revive players, or run server commands.
