I run into them in Masters on occasion, and when I do they are never a problem to deal with.

Very Rare - Outside of 4/5* they can't hang with higher-level stuff, but they can be useful in the mid-game.

If you are using a given Rare and can empower it, sure go for it, I just wouldn't make it a focus. That said it is harder to get the rare orbs, so by the time you can empower one to 5* you'll have stronger options (like focusing on the Kratus or some such).

Rare - Same empowerment boost as commons, but with better base stats.

A 5* common gets a modest 59% boost on top of bad stats, early on it can help you cheap up through arena, but it will start being out-gunned once you start running into Epics and Legendaries.

Common - Not worth your time outside of very early game.

With that in mind, here are my general thoughts (opinions really) on what to consider for each rarity level. You don't want to be in a situation where spending all your time trying to build up Red Woods because you bred 4 of them for the puzzle event and you're waiting to recall the Kratus you just hatched. Specifically, empowering (most) dragons takes time, and time is your enemy when you can only recall and empower one dragon at a time. Obviously empowering any dragon makes it better, but just because you can doesn't mean you should. Tips: Well levels 21 and 25 are certainly the most food efficient, but honestly 566k food for 100 orbs is a bargain if you can afford it, it's hard not to get the full 100.
