AS carlos said here is a 72 H challange with very nice prizes
Inknatius E- 8045 coins
Firael L-. 19450 coins
Kihaku L - 23715 coins

Good luck all
So how is every one coin earning esp from food . i did 1 round and got 143 coins .. but forgot to activate my temple
but even with 2x that . think it is a bit lower than last time ??

The challenge is up with Inknatius, Firael and Kihaku.

Oddly I don't get any coins .......

Edit: clearing the cache did the trick

@keki14 For a level 106 F2P player, is Firael or Kihaku attainable? Or should I just focus on ranking up Inknatius?

@Clackers you ask the wrong person
I think it depends how much gold you have (I have about 900 million at lvl 91). Usually the last monster is around 25k coins and the middle is around 18k.
Try how much coins can you collect from food (use your guardian too, if it's available).
Also breeding, hatching and gold collecting helps too.

@keki14 I don't really want Firael, but unless it is likely I can get Kihaku, then I wont bother trying.

I had to pay 400 gems or so to buy Sparking Mantis last time, so I guess it wont be any easier now...

@Clackers I'll definitely try to get Kihaku (he's rank 1) and maybe Inknatius. I don't really care about Firael.
Also I messed up and activated my guardian a day earlier and I have only 5 hours left

Anyone know how many cells I can extract a rank 1 Inkantius for?

I already have a rank 0 fed to level 90, so I will just use that one.

for me, Kihaku is rank 2, with 4.3B I hope I can get at least 2, I know that for the second round I need to get all of them, won't mind getting Firael since I dont have him, Inknatious will do to rank up mine, I really hope I can do 3 laps and get multiple ranked Kihakus I'm so happy this event is back.

@Clackers I think the math is "50 + Level * 0.5"

@Francisco-Franceschi said in 72 H challenge < Inknatius-Firael-Kihaha >:

@Clackers I think the math is "50 + Level * 0.5"

yes this is for unranked monster so epic fully feeded will give 95 cells

as for ranked monster --- you need to feed them to original max only so rank 1 epic feeded to level 90 only -- will give 155 cells
the math is 50+ level * 0.5 + 50% of cells used to reach this rank

And don't forget .. Monsterwood coins are 50 x20 so 1000 coins total
Love generous SP

same problem as every time

A player of my team (level 74) has already 7000 Coins. I have 88 Coins with level 130.
Okay he will get the last monster with 1 star or without any star, but with this amount of coins he will again be able to pass the event 3 times am I have to work hard to get only one monster

@Claudius-DC-Sailer
Actually the round is open now till 6 -- some say it even exceed that --
but my consolation is we once were there too . i remember finishing the first lamou event - chinese island -- with just collecting gold .not even grow food .. so play normally and you finish an event !
i think this is to lure low level players to higher tiers and once they are there

14 farms, all black lotus root with 100% boost = around 1700 coins at lvl 91.
Seems a bit low, but I think Kihaku is completely possible even without the boost (have around 800 million gold), plus we have the happy hour now too which is at least 2000 coins (20 ads twice per day, which is (20*50)*2)

Are there any discounts or special deals during this kind of event that we should watch out for?
Or is it just get as many coins as you can and use them at the end of the event to get what you can?
If anyone has any good "tricks" to maximize the number of coins pls share!

@peter
No discounts .. so go all wild and earn as much coins as you can
growing food gives the most higher coins , beside collect gold . breed and pvp

On a side note, challenge coins cost gems now, not real money

Love generous SP

hope it is 1000

@Marianne-van-Es like I said it's at least 2000 coins ((20 ads * 50 coins )*2), if all ads work perfectly.

I'm already at 7000 coins

does it make sense to use the breeding temple?
I mean since it shortens the breeding time, are the coins counted based on the original time or the one after applying the boost?

I'll try to get Kihaku.

@peter it's time and rarity, so even if you use the guardian, the rarity is still in play (at lvl 80+ an epic gave me around 800 coins)

@keki14 Didn't realized that, that's amazing also.

@keki14 ouch, that's a lot, which level are you? I'm at 1309 at level 102

@Francisco-Franceschi I'm at 91, but I already spent over 300 million gold for food with 100% boost, plus gold collecting and breeding.

@keki14 oh ok, yeah I recall that above level 100 is a little more difficult to get coins, the last challenge I was level 98 ans was easier than this time, I would love to know the rates for getting coins based on player level.

Second round of food gave 288 coins , so it is really lower this time

I have no idea if this still applies but there was a lot of information on twiki the last time it happened. There are charts for coin rewards with regards to the player level.
http://monster-wiki.com/72-hour-challenge-december-2017/

@Haka-Taka can i play

@peter
this is old chart , per it if i grow 2.8m food \ 3478 i should get 800 coins
last event it was 400 and now 288

@Andrew-Gillingham
mmm what do you mean ?

@Andrew-Gillingham yes, you can

@Haka-Taka sure, figures can be off, still think its worth for some who have not participated before to get a feel for the mechanics of this kind of event.
However, I have noticed that the unspoken rule of "restart your app to trigger the collection of already accumulated coins" applies. Sometimes I collect a bunch of food and get nothing, and then suddenly I get several hundred for a next small bunch. I just find it difficult to reliably tell whether the numbers are correct because coins don't seem to be rewarded at even increments.

@peter
Yes i am aware of stuck coins , and to grow 30 sec food after the big one to get any stuck coins .. all this was supposed to be posted in event guide post but i got a little problem that distracted me

well, as per that info I should be getting around 1459 coins on each food rotation with the most expensive food, and I'm getting about 800 coins, so yeah, it is much less, but I'm getting 5 to 2 coins each greenasaur, so, I have that.

my son is level 72 and got with 5Mio food 6000 Coins. I got 300 coins at Level 130. FoodBoost is activ with 100% on both Accounts.
He has 1Billion Gold I have 6 Billion.
He will get Kihaku with one star. I will get it with 2 stars.
BUT It is not sure that I will be able to get him. My son will possibly got all 3 monster 2 or 3 times....

really fair event

@Claudius-DC-Sailer yeah, I dont quite get why it needs to be so hard for advanced players, I mean sure, needs to be harder since we have more resources, but c'mon, not that hard.

Over all I'm happy that the event is back, and the main prize is amazing.

@Claudius-DC-Sailer said in 72 H challenge < Inknatius-Firael-Kihaka >:

He has 1Billion Gold I have 6 Billion.

I forgot to say that we started collecting gold at the same time and had the same food periods and same foodprices. One 5Mio the rest 75.000

My alt already has a 1* Kihaku from this event, got it after the first harvest, then with the extra it got halfway though Firael. While my main isn't even halfway through Kihaku and went down neary 33% because it went from level 99 to level 100, I at least had a chance with 78 coins every 200K food, but now I don't think I do.

@Haka-Taka is it a good idea to breed pandakens with breeding temple on? how many coins to rare and uncommon breeds give?

@Khue-Do
Actually it is the best breed combo for this event if you can keep up .
it will gives more coins than L - assuming you can burn hours just repeating it -
From wiki

FACT: Breeding Pandaken 3 times every hour (or 6 times every 2 hours, or 12 times/4 hours) gives more breeding points than breeding other monsters!

Im so happy, level 73 and I have 90k coins already, and I still have more then half my gold to spend

@Barn-Owl good old times ...

If it helps for anyone's calculations, I'm level 102, I'm getting 811 coins each farm rotation, 2 to 5 coins each pandaken/greenasaur and 80 coins per pvp won.

@Barn-Owl 90K!

Anyone knows how much coins will actually take to get kihaku assuming getting it at the last card?

@Francisco-Franceschi I think it's around 25k

@Francisco-Franceschi said in 72 H challenge < Inknatius-Firael-Kihaka >:

23k coins like last event , 23,715

lOl I'm afraid of this event... I don't have all the time to play and obtain the coins. But, I will try my best.

@Haka-Taka ouch, that's a lot, I'm barely near 6k,i guess I need to gather food every hour for the next 3 days if I want to get to the second round and get one
