How to Train Your Dragon has officially landed on Roblox. With 6.3M+ visits, it’s already catching eyes with its open-world flying mechanics and a dragon bonding system. Whether you’re a fan of the movies or just discovering the world of Berk, this guide will help you get started on your dragon training journey.

Getting Started With How To Train Your Dragon

Entering the game starts with a cinematic scene that takes you into the thick of the action right away. The journey begins when you meet the first dragon, the Night Fury (also known as Toothless in the movies). Do what the prompts say and complete the short taming game to unlock and become friends with him. This dragon is quick, maneuverable, and suitable for beginners wanting to learn to fly and explore.

After the intro, you’ll be able to do your first quests. They enable you to learn flying techniques, fire shots, and handle your dragon. Spend some time learning how to use the controls, navigate through the air, boost your speed, and fire your dragon’s attacks.

Unlocking More Dragons

As you progress, you’ll have chances to unlock more dragons, each with unique abilities and strengths.

  • Gruesome Gronckle: A tanky dragon with high health and strong firepower. You can unlock it after finishing early tutorial quests. Head to the first island, help free the Gronckle, and complete the challenge to make it yours. While it’s a bit slower (short wings), it’s still great for combat and defense.
  • Deadly Nadder: This dragon becomes available once you hit Rider Level 5. To level up, complete tasks like flying through rings, fishing, destroying targets, and bonding with dragons. Once unlocked, it offers better agility and attack power for mid-game quests.
  • Hideous Zippleback: Recently added in a game update, this twin-headed dragon offers unique visuals and possibly dual abilities. You’ll encounter it later in the game as new quests unlock.

Training and Leveling Up

Besides teaching your dragons to fly, you need to work on your Rider Level and try to collect as much gold as possible. You will be able to find stronger dragons, access new areas, and get saddles this way. Players level up when they finish quests, challenges, and battles.

The stats, speed, fire output, and health of a dragon are improved by equipping a saddle. Having more gold allows you to purchase better saddles. Work your way from the basic perks to advanced ones that will help you play better.

Earning Gold in How To Train Your Dragon

Gold is essential for upgrading your dragons. You can earn it by:

  • Completing quests
  • Destroying Bullseye Turrets on islands
  • Flying through ring courses
  • Taking care of dragons (feeding, bonding, etc.)

Bullseye Turrets give repeatable rewards, making them one of the fastest ways to farm gold early on.

Final Tips

Explore the islands thoroughly. Each has hidden areas, collectibles, and side quests that give extra XP and gold. Bonding with your dragon boosts its performance, so don’t skip the interactions.

Try different dragons and saddles to match your style, whether it’s fast exploration, heavy combat, or fishing.

Most importantly, have fun. The game blends storytelling, training, and flying mechanics in a way that feels immersive, especially for a Roblox title.
