New Year's Egg

The New Year's Egg is the core hatching item of the New Year's Event, and what makes it stand out is its dual sourcing: you could buy it from the New Year's Shop with event currency or earn it through the New Year's Streak by logging in across the event. That streak route is the key, it lets dedicated players accumulate eggs for free over time rather than spending everything on shop purchases.

The pool behind this egg is what justifies the grind. It is the same source that yields the New Year's Chimp at a friendly 15% and the prismatic New Year's Dragon at a punishing 0.25%, so every hatch is simultaneously a reliable shot at the Chimp and a long-odds gamble on the Dragon. That spread means the egg rewards volume: the more you open, the more the math works in your favor for at least the mythical.

My take: lean on the streak first and save shop currency for the final push before the event closes. Because both headline pets live here and the egg is limited, it was worth hatching every one you could get, the Chimp pays off consistently, and the Dragon is the dream sitting on top.
