First off, I would like to thank the developers for listening to our complaints, that you are willing to modify the current events according to what is best for the majority.

This idea came to me when I found it hard to maintain my Thirst Bar in this month's event and made a thread asking for some small adjustments to make it slightly easier. I have looked around and noticed many comments that told us -who complained- that we should accept the event as it is, that the game needs the challenge and it isnt even so bad as we make it to be.

And I have noticed that many times those people say this whose main playstyle is far from those who complain about events being difficult sometimes. Breeders who have no use for NPC fights dont have a use for the Thirst Bar either, plus with the overflow of food within explore they are absolutely not affected by this month's event.

However, breeding is positively affected by some. For example the February event had a lot of breeding boosting items, and some events have new markings and bases. But when it comes to limits.... They are suddenly not affected. Flood event? Drought event? No.

Problem:
The events so far only seemed to affect two major playstyles: Explorers/PVE and Hunters, those whose main income is exploring itself and hunting. Whereas people whose main concern is breeding do not see any of the difficulties. This way, PVE/Hunters are the ones who see the challenge and the difficulties, while the rest only sees the challenge and the fun in it, causing them to be left out.

Suggestion:
I think events should affect all playstyles. Events should pose a difficulty/boost in explore, hunt, and breeding.

OR

Event should not affect any of the playstyles in any negative ways. So limiting (no matter how limiting) events should not be implemented.

Main complaints and questions:

1. How would this even work? Breeding usually has nothing to do with explore/hunting/events.
I am sure that the developers could think of a way how it should affect breeding in general.

Some examples would be -if something negative happens to explore/hunting, like in this event:
- All lionesses are counted as 1% fertile, making attempts harder
- Lionesses dont come into heat that month, only with the help of a combination of items and higher care
- Cubs with lethal mutations would be born way more frequently
etc.

Please note, that the limits or negative effects would be able to be helped and lifted with uses of items and features. The same way how we can modify our thirst bars with items, Breeding would also be able to be boosted and enabled. With active participation in the event -just like with exploring in our case- one can completely remove all negative effects.

If explore/hunting is affected positively, then breeding also should get some kind of boost and help.
- More chance for multiple cubs
- Fertility booster items
- Less energy spent on breeding attempts
etc.

2. I am paying GB for breeding/studding! It should not be affected by the events negatively!
People pay GB for high statted lions, to skip waiting time, to buy energy boosts, to get quick SB so they can extend the hunts of their lionesses, training their lions. GB is paid everywhere. Not just breeding, yet they are affected by the events. Besides, in this case breeding would be affected positively if explore/hunting also receive good additions.

3. Why do we even need this? We dont need a change.
We do. It isnt exactly fair to have only one part of Lioden affected negatively/positively by the events, leaving the rest left out/their progress crippled. Plus, it will finally involve all those players who dont have a idea just how annoying a 'fair' event can be by being in the middle of it. Dont misunderstand me, events are supposed to be challenging, but one playstyle cannot be left out of the events if the rest is affected.
