IM CRASHING OUT

So i did a leviathan hunt with some randoms and we accidentally found a prehistoric island. They all started going to that and I thought why don't I? After 5 mins, those eggs spawned and they were kind enough to give me one and they told me to take it. When I went to claim it, it showed a message "your spirit is not yet affiliated with dragons" or something like that. So obviously they took the egg and when I went to yt and searched on how to clear it and oh goodness gracious wtf is this? Get dragon breath, take it to 400 mastery and get dragon talon and also get it to 500 mastery. Not to mention the bs requirements for dragon talon. I got 500 bones just to get some money and pocket change of fragments and i grinded another 500 bones for the same bullshi. Also an honorable mention I'm not using buddha💔 (because I want to do sb hunts and stuff so i changed to magma). How did you guys grind these things. Did you guys get 2x mastery and started grinded with it or without it. If you're not using it then what is the best place for mastery farming? Also is there any possible way to increase luck and get more fruits? My rng luck is so ahh and I can't even do anything about it. If I don't get these fire essences within tomorrow, I'll just drop this game. Not to mention these beautiful bounty hunters not letting me grind a single bone and taking every bone in my body out of my ahh
