Average

#54 of 99 Ninjago sets with 200–499 pieces

Jay’s Elemental Dragon gives slightly more pieces per $10 than usual (83 against 79) and a 3.9 rating, but two minifigures for $29.99 is among the lowest rates for a mid-size Ninjago set, and plastic per dollar is about 7% under the norm. That leaves it below average.
