I made a mistake and bought Hookfang, when I started playing for the first time. And it was mostly, because there was not info whatsoever in the game that says how much these 4 dragons cost compared to Bing, Bam and Boom which do. AND that there is a 24h discount when you finish their riders' houses. I didn't know about the Rise of Berk wiki back them. Basically if you buy Hoofang you will lose 200 Runes for sure even when you use the discount.

For Stormfly. You can get 90 Runs from the very beginning of the game. But you must not spend almost a single Rune even when the quest asks you to. You will get past these few Rune using quests anyway, just by waiting for your Toothless to return or the egg to hatch, and still get the reward. The only quest you will have to spend Runes because the game will make you do it is where you have to buy all 3 bags when you start your very first search for the Monstrous Nightmare. But the game will give them back to you because that very first search is fixed so there is always Runes in 1 of the 3 bags along the Monstrous Nightmare egg. After you are done with the tutorial quests Hiccup will give you Runes also. And with these you will have enough for Stormfly or just be a few runes short of having 90. With this strategy Stormfly was my 2nd dragon on my Berk and I had a 300 Runes head-start. But I kept these for Meatlug.
