Are SP getting desperate or something? What's the point of this challenge when there is no reason to achieve it?

I don't actually have Daganth, so I could get it for free - but that's not the point.

We are waiting for the Maze.

Even if you have all the 3 monsters - i do - there is still extra gems - 40 total -

Monkey cells -- 80 so enough to craft him if you want - and a bunch of useless items
think of it as a little break after the race and before the maze

Well Daganth is one of the monsters required in the breeding challenge you leaked, and although they are not new they could be new to others and cells as well.

I do not understand this post at all, it does not have to be all about new monsters. Honestly this is a nice breather, and having this at the same time as the harvester challenge let's me get double for my guardian. For me I have 72 hours to relax before the next one so I am going to take it and enjoy it. And enjoy the resources and cells I will get from this while I relax.

Why would you want it to have new monsters? do you really already have 18 copies of either? This is the best thing and I hope they continue on with it, there does not need to be nearly so many new monsters. Time to give copies so people can actually rank some up.

@Clackers doesnt believe in ranking his monsters ;)

I like seeing these monsters they can help with ranking. It is however, a joke 36 coins for 2.8m food is SP serious @Fox. I absolutely refuse to spend gems to get them!

Are you utilizing the trick to do one farm at the cheap food after each round of farming to make sure you are getting the max coins?

Coing generation/collection is very odd this challenge. I assume SP has spent their usual full 3 minutes of testing???!?!?

@Nynaevelan

i did and hardly i am earning any coins :
are you getting the normal amount we used to ?

Not so far but for reason I do not do well in the first couple of collections when a challenge starts.

Same here, the amount of coins collected for harvesting is just extremely low...

I remember that on Thyra's 72h challenge the rate was very high, and I was able to complete almost 3 full rounds (got 3 monsters of each, except for Thyra, which I got 2)

Then in the next 72h challenge (the last one) the number of coins you earned for harvesting was radically reduced (I think it was the same rate as it is now).

Maybe Thyra's challenge was too easy (that's debatable though), but I think they went too far "adjusting" the exchange rate.

Hello

I have grown 5.6 million food and done the 30second growth trick many times and still have 0 coins from growing food , this is not normal please fix it and give us the corresponding coins when it is corrected.

Thanks

I've tried growing cheap food, after collecting...but I haven't collected any coins from growing food, 3rd round now...I prefer repeat monsters for ranking up...but coin collection is dire

Incognita is gonna be good support to accompany burotgur cause of his blind skill if u use accuracey it should help with countering it right?

There's definitely something wrong with food collection.

From what I could gather so far, the coins/food ratio for players at lvl. 80+ is about 1/1580, which is around 2.5 times worse than what it was during the Thyra challenge. I wouldn't take this as gospel, though, better wait and see what monster-wiki says. :)

I've yet to earn a single coin from farms for this event, as have some of my teammates. Something's not right.

I am getting 48 coins for 75 mill gold spent on food. It used to be around 1000 per round of food. That us a BIG nerf.

I always see people complaining about not getting enough coins from food during these 72h challenges (exact same thing happens with breeding and hatching coins/points during mazes and progressive islands). I have no idea if some of you are affected by bugs or you guys simply don't do it right, though. It's always worked as it should have for me. :)

It gives 0 coins despite growing over 6 million food now so it's most definitely a bug.

@Community-Managers

Hey everyone,

we did balancing changes since the last Gacha as always. But this is too much and we already passed this issue to the team for further investigation.

Thank you for reporting!

Thanks our lovely CM but take into consideration that it is only 72H , so if it is fixed by tomorrow we already lost 1/3 the event , mmmm maybe extra day is welcomed and notice that our food guardian will be off so it is still balanced

@Haka-Taka Let's first see where is the issue before we do any conclusions.

So far I am getting only about 1 coin per 4,000 food collected.

The last 72h challenge with Thyra was really motivating IMO, this coins/item ratio should have been kept.

@Fox Regardless of the balancing, could you please make sure those who got 0 coins from several millions of food collections get the appropriate challenge coins retroactively?

Thanks

I don't think we can get anything from this challenge at lvl 130 at least unless we spend 72 hours breeding pandakens on both breeding grounds... which i refuse to do so i am all good. Free is free.

no no, pandaken works. 5 coins per pandaken 2 for greenasaur at lvl 130. You just get the coins with the next breeding.
Still i don't intend to spend 3 days doing that, i will go mental.

This remind me of old day where the event was flipping cards but with longer times

it was normal to read that we set and start breeding pandaken for 5 or 8 hours straight - this is how i got lamou when she appeared first time --
one member on the old forum - forgot his name - trained to do it with his feet fingers while he watch media :P but note sure that i will go to that extend now

first kind of this challenge was the Halloween flip card event :D with the introduction of Sir Slumbery back then ^_^ that's how I got my first Laomu in my first play through too :D
I miss those good old days @Haka-Taka :D

Balancing changes?!?!? Seriously, so 8.4 million food so far = ZERO challenge coins?? I'm thinking this is more of a bug in the latest update, since many players who have older versions are reporting they are getting coins from harvesting. If this isn't a bug... well let's just say we have very diiferent ideas of what the word "balance" means. :) Thanks for looking into this!! Have a good one!!

I appreciated the fact that these balancing changes where communicated in advance of being done.

You might be onto something, collecting food is pretty complicated. We must not be doing it right!

But seriously, there are two issues here. Some are getting coins (though at a low rate), and others aren't getting them whatsoever despite back-to-back black lotus farming. For those in the latter group, it doesn't seem to matter whether or not we're using the latest update, nor if it's Android or iOS.

Am soooo glad I have not activated my food Guardian yet! Had noticed I was getting very few coins, and none at all for breeding, so was thinking something was amiss...

Same here. Nice bonus when it happens, but collecting is more important to me.

I like both but I haven't got room anymore :)

@Fox Ok now on my 11th million food growth and still 0 coins from it. Will you retroactively make it right for players who got nothing ?

I think you have stopped working at this hour, guess it's best to stop hoping :( It's a 72h challenge, the food guardian went to waste, food growth and the will to try as well. I wanted to do several rounds but won't be able to get even 1 monster apparently.

Good luck to to those who have it working properly.

They're Spanish, so will have finished for the night now. Nice to see it hasn't been made a priority to be sorted out immediately! Maybe sometime tomorrow it might get sorted. Sooner the better as I need to seriously replenish my food stocks.

Someone sent some code to me and I'm no expert but I think i can see the fault: level 90 cycle 409173 - level 100 cycle 852445 - level 110 4091736

That's exactly the thing: after you collect the black rotus food, you should always grow the cheapest food available and collect that in order to get your full amount of coins. So yes, you Gods amongst men, maybe you're not doing it right after all. :)

If you're still not getting anything after doing that, then yes, you're probably affected by some sort of SP-style glitch.

Of course we all tried that. This ain't our first rodeo. ;)

But since you brought it up, the 30-second trick is only needed if you're impatient to see results. Otherwise, you'll (normally) get your coins on the next go-around.

Of course we all tried that. This ain't our first rodeo. ;)

How about saying that from the first reply on this topic, then? Could've avoided this useless exchange.

Because repeated back-to-back black lotus farming WILL normally result in coins without the need for the 30-second trick. You're the one who pointed out we're "doing something wrong". :)

For those that were not getting any coins at all, have you tried to collect food on Face book version?

You're the one who pointed out we're "doing something wrong". :)

I actually never said that, though. This is the exact quote: "I have no idea if some of you are affected by bugs or you guys simply don't do it right, though." To which you could've just replied with a simple "Nah, we've tried absolutely everything, it's surely a bug."

But nope, you just had to put the whole "how dare you say I'm not doing it right" spin on it. Anyway, enough off-topic comments, let's move on.

i tried few minutes ago to find that Fb version is bugged and keep reloading :\

can anyone confirm if this is just me or general sync problem ?

Have never needed to do a fast farm to collect coins. Just grow your food, collect and then collect gold as normal. Finally got coins for a long breed though - nearly 600!

maybe because you were the one who just assumed everyone is a newbie dummy and doing something wrong ^_^

anywho. It is still not working for me at lvl 98. Is it working for lower levels though? and is it working for older versions of the game?

A little math:
Daganth is a total of 8085
Ahran 19450
Incognita 23715

Grand total is 51250 for each round

Let's say, at lvl 130, you collect every hour with food guardian on, it is about 48 coins each time.
72x48=3456 coins

Let's assume you breed for pandakens since the very beginning, with two breeding grounds, non stop for 72 hours:
72x60x2x2=17280 pandakens/greenasaurs
Ratio pandaken to greenasaur is 30% pandaken 70% greenasaur
5 coins for pandaken 2 for greenasaur (3x5+7x2)/10=2.9coins for each one breeding.
17290x2.9=50112 coins

Let's throw some pvp in the mix. 80x72/2=2880coins
Wow, pvp is really raking it in!

I got no info about the gold... sorry. But let's ballpark it at like...200coins per 50mil. I make 200mil give or take a day with the guardian on...
200x4x3=2400coins

Grand total of 72 hours of non-stop doing everything is:
3456+50112+2880+2400=58848coins.

But it isn't possible, not ever. So let's keep everything but the pandakens:
8736 coins.

Incognita costs 23715
sooo, if you want her, and just her, nothing else, you need 23715-8736=14979coins more from breeding
14979/(2,9x2)= 2583breedings on both breeding grounds. 2583x30secs=77490secs=1292mins=21,5 hours=7hours and 10 mins of non stop breeding every day of the event.

Oh, I forgot Breeding guardian, cut all those hours in half.
For merely 4 hours a day, you get an Incognita out of this! Bargain.
