We haven’t had a 72 hour challenge in a while. Just wondering if there has been any communication from SP as to whether the 72 has been removed? Especially as we’ve had a loooot of races recently 😩

Any info welcomed!

Hi :)
Sp Confirmed that the event is NOT removed form the game . So we will see it later but no idea when

Thanks @Haka-Taka super appreciated 😊

They wait while we all will get 130 lvl to not be able to get any monster

Lol all?

They wait for my 130 lvl. I think everyone who >115 lvl feels the same :)

@Dewei I'm 130 and got the 2 legends last 72 hour. It is just painful as you have to have 2 billion easy to blow on food when it starts. ;)

Thanks for the info 👍. I have 2 billion gold. Hope it will be ok. How often need to regrow food? Need to do it every hour including night? Did you use gems to speed up food / breeding?

@Dewei not in the night and not using gems. Just breed thunder eagle every 4 hours, make as much food as you can when awake and fight PvP of course. You just about stumble over the line to get the monsters but the targets change a little each event. That's if we ever see a 72 hour challenge again.... ;)

Let's wake up this subject, I need another 72 hour challenge, been saving fold for it, I'm at 3 billion and running out of food lol.

Hey @Haka-Taka @Fox , can you confirm if this event is dead? I've been saving gold for it.

@Francisco-Franceschi Yes I believe it is going the way of the Dodo.

Spend your gold on something else, don't save it.

@Clackers I would still save gold, but save it for the Growth Spurt.

@Francisco-Franceschi
As i said before SP confirmed that this event is NOT dead , but no idea when we will have one .

I had over 1,7 billion gold, but I had to use it to save up space by leveling up and extracting unused (and unbreedable) epics (rank 5 Wisteria and Inknatius is pretty good). Now i have just over 500 million.
Unfortunately I reached lvl 90, so the event is pretty much over for me. (everything over lvl 90 is extremely hard in the 72h challenge)

@keki14 that's not true im lvl 130 and last time I still got the 2 star hirondeleor, at level 90 if you save enough you still can get all

@Marianne-van-Es I hope so 🙂

I have 3.5B saved, I wanted to get all the monsters for one time and actually do a couple of rounds, it is true that it gets more difficult, but with enough dolg saved it can be done, I saved all that gold and now they are holding the event, and I'm guessing the rules will change so we can't get the monsters with only investing huge amounts of gold.

Maybe that we all asking about it is what delaying it

I totally understand that social point makes little to no profit off of the 72 hour challenge [at best they get maybe 20-30 gems on completely unprepared players who have their farming temple on cooldown or players spending a couple gems to speed up some of their farms], but regardless of anyone’s level I feel everyone in the monster legends community would really appreciate having a 72 hour challenge. Please Social Point give us what a lot of players, including myself, rely heavily on for making food in the game. The current Mercenary Island ends in about 5 days so it’ll be over by Monday, we all know that another race is coming very soon since its one of the most profitable events for y’all [which there is nothing wrong with of course, micro-transactions are the foundation for pretty much every game app], but races typically start on Thursdays, that means at this moment between the current island ending (Monday) and the next race starting (Thursday), {hypothetically}, is exactly 72 hours (3 days) which would be a perfect time to implement a 72 hour challenge {PLEASE} I don’t really care if y’all use new monsters or old ones like y’all did in the last 72 hour challenge (and like y’all did in the Force of Elements Maze)[same for the cells] I {and many others I’m sure} simply want the event to happen. With this timeline it would be a perfect time to also turn on either a Growth Spurt Challenge Event or Pick up an old event Like the PVP Event or the Farming Event to further promote activity and friendly competition. Please Social Point, a successful game depends on your loyal and active supporters who play your games, please listen to your community and give players what they want, PLEASE! We all know that y’all change your minds last minute on events often (just look at the Demon Maze) so if you have alternative plans I feel the timeline I posted would be just as successful and be much more appreciated by the community. Please just give us another 72 hour challenge, having to wait almost three months (since like Dec 14th, 2017) now is really not cool for such a F2P friendly event that everyone (for the most part depending on their player level) widely enjoys!

@Shadow94321 Feel like this could have been summarized in about 4 sentences, but whatever

@Shadow94321 Totally Agreed, we need this event to come back.

tottally agree, and even if the event itself may not be a big generation in cash. in keeps the game more balanced and fun in the long turn. A big reason for many ftp players to love the game and maybe start using cash now and then later on.
Would really need a new 72, my 100 million food from last one is soon goon :O

@Shadow94321 I feel exactly the same way dude! Please give us this event back this looks like a perfect timeline for social point to use; lol also @Boro that's such a waste of a post my dude it doesn't add anything to the discussion at hand, u could have just Privated messaged the dude 🙄or u know whatever 🤣

Yeah, I got the two legends with only 700M gold last one (unprepared, and because they were the last rewards from both) at the lvl 95-100 increment.

If other events are more profitable, why not run 72h in parallel?

For example if start simultaneously with team race it will increase gems spending on speeding up harvesting

@Dewei Exactly, that way you keep other players that will not participate on certain events by allowing them to do other event, it's all about taking care of the players in some ways.

And then SP gets the complaints of many other players that there is to much going on. They really do listen (read) what is said here on the forum but there is no way you can satisfy all

@Marianne-van-Es SP reckon that due to forum comments (and feedback) there are too many monsters being released, so now they don't release hardly anything

Not sure I believe it tbh.

Sounds more like budget cuts in the office, and now they want to see if they can earn the same revenue but pay the monster designers less.

@Marianne-van-Es Well, that is true, there's a lot to do, and the mayority of that takes gems to advance, that's the business, and we understand that, we want this event to go back since we can get a couple of legends without expending gems at all, which I'm guessing is the very reason that the event has not come back for a couple of months.

I recognize that SP is very generous with players, and lately it's been amazingly generous with all the free monsters and cells, etc, events, etc.

@Clackers Thanks for worrying, but my wage is not being affected ;)

And I can say that there will be a 72hrs challenge in March.

@Carlos yaaay :D

You made a whole lot of peops very happy with that :)

@Carlos having one each month would pretty much please everyone. Hopefully SP fullfills me this wish and we shall have one 72h challenge each month

@Carlos But you would say that ;)

Anyway, if it is one of those naff 72he challenges with old monsters, it will prove my point. ;)

I am waiting for a new 72hr challenge monster.... but with those budget cuts I am not holding my breathe. ;D

Thank you for setting minds at ease. This is a favorite event for many.

At least Frostbite and Hirondoleor were A-list "recycled" monsters. Baba Yaga was even better. I would be happy with A-list monsters even if they are not Premiere. It is unlikely that 72 hour challenges would become monthly, but moving from three months to two months between them would be a huge improvement.

@Carlos that's amazing, I hope it has the same rules so we can have full advantage of the gold we've been saving, it would be a shame to see the event changed to something that requires gems.

@Fox Why not bring back the old card flip challenges again? They were kind of nice or at least they would bring a bit more variety into the cycle of challenges!!!
