May Event Challenge


Bored? Tired? Are the Championships not enough for you? It might be time for you to rise against the war machine and express your rebellious side! The Punk Challenge begins!

To give you all a head start on preparations, the challenge begins automatically at 00:00am LDT May 16th and lasts until 11:59pm LDT May 31st.

The challenge can be accessed via the EVENT tab. To activate the challenge, press the Take Challenge button!

This challenge only targets a personal goal this month. Each player that takes the challenge must defeat 200 Lion NPCs in Explore and breed 20 cubs with the Crested mane shape for that extra punk RUFF! Why Crested specifically? Because... the challenge's reward is the ability to breed the Dorsal Fur mutation!


2020-may-challenge.jpg


All cubs with the Crested mane shape BORN AFTER 00:00am LDT May 16th will count towards the challenge. You can breed and conceive the cubs now, the progress bar counts actual births!

Please keep in mind that the reverse breeding feature is not compatible with this challenge. Any Crested-maned cubs bred using the reverse breeding feature will not count towards this goal.

How do I get a Crested-maned cub?
If you have a Blade, Razor, Regent, or Tsavo-maned lion, those shapes have a chance to "fail" and produce Crested-maned cubs!
If you do not have those mane shapes, you can change your king's mane shape to Crested via the Mane Changer in the Oasis, then breed to lionesses in your pride.
You can send stud requests for your lionesses to Blade, Crested, Razor, Regent, or Tsavo-maned studs.
Lionesses with the Crested mane shape found in the Trading Center or claimed as Newly Claimed Groupies can be useful, too!

What are the rewards?
A permanently-unlocked "Punk" title, a permanently-unlocked unique achievement, and a temporary small battle boost effect when fighting against Lion NPCs in Explore that lasts until 11:59pm LDT May 31st!
A one-time only button that activates a mohawk breeding boost on your main male!

Upon pressing the button, the next immediate breeding from your king will result in one cub within the litter having a guaranteed Dorsal Fur mutation! The cub will have the Crested mane shape by default, regardless of what mane shape its parents have.

The button to breed the mutation will be there until the challenge ends on 11:59pm LDT May 31st. However, the button's effect will last until you successfully breed your king, even after the challenge ends!

This means that you can stud out the effect for profit. To safeguard all transactions, we've added the button's effect as a notification banner to your main male's page, as well as given it an entry in user logs.

Again: the button is a one-time reward for completing the challenge!

Note: The effect is tied to your account, not your king. If you claim the effect and you retire your king before breeding him, your new king will carry over the effect.

Dorsal Fur??
It is a visual mutation that affects all stages but Cub Newborn.
It is detected upon birth.
It displays and passes only with the Crested mane shape.
Lions with the Dorsal Fur mutation cannot change their mane shape whatsoever, even with mane shape applicators or the Oasis Custom Lion tool.
Either parent can naturally pass the mutation onto their cubs at a very low chance.
Two Dorsal Fur lions that are bred together will have a doubled natural chance at producing Dorsal Fur cubs!
All lions born with Dorsal Fur will always have the Crested mane shape as well.

Get those Catnip and Lucky Feet GOING, dudes!


SEPARATION


By the way - if we get at least 100 Dorsal Fur cubs bred by June, we could put some fancy mohawk decors into the game for June 12th's development update!

Note About May Decors
The May event decors that were delayed due to a hardware malfunction will appear in Tier 3 of the Champion Shop tomorrow!


SEPARATION

Raffle Lioness


Congrats woofwooftails (#142574)! You have won last week's Sahara lady, woo!
A new Haze lady with Feline 5 Noctis, Sidereal Shine, and the ninth Mayombe Forest background is up for impressing in the Special Lioness area linked here!

Poll Results - Wow! It looks like you guys favour the idea of V'Kai being so absolutely hyped about you during the Championships that he infects others around him with a similar excitement!

NEW POLL - We have a game mechanic question today. Should we reinstate the ability for duplicate markings to be bred? If this is reinstated, this means that two parents with the same marking in different slots could naturally pass down multiple copies of that marking to their cubs.


SEPARATION

Next Development Update: June 12th!

This looks like a lot of fun! I’m excited for a different challenge and a mutation that passes from both males and females this way! So excited because crested manes are a big fav :)

Thank you. Time to go kick some lion hiney.

And yes, thank you for polling whether or not we want to stack markings. Some of the effects of this are absolutely cool and I’ve been waiting a long time to vote on it :)

I adore the new mutation!

Lemme edit with a bit on double marks though :P

Edit: Okay, so I really don't think it's a good idea :( There's been so much time since it was patched that most breeders are far past it and the way markings pass right now- with the lower slot having priority- is taken advantage of. Usually with rare slots it's best to breed the lion to a stud with the same mark but in a higher slot, because it tends to guarantee the lower rare slot passes (Like a lion with s4 vit 5, a mark with like two lions, being bred to s5 vit 5 so that the vit has a higher chance to pop up in s4). But with duplicates, that makes the chance for the rare slot to pass lowered and more difficult. And imagine trying to breed s4 vit 5 and a different slot 5 in- that's obnoxiously difficult with two of the same mark passing in. Also, most projects have lions with conflicting marks, since there's not much Tier 2 to begin with (find me two gold RL clones that don't share at least one mark. :P Even compare different black based RLs, things such as celestial speckles pop up so often that it'd be VERY hard to avoid duplication for everyone who doesn't enjoy it, so there's no way to compromise by personally avoiding it.) so it'd be almost impossible to avoid duplicates if you didn't like the change. Just look at my breeders for my Nudar project in here: link My Nudar heir has slot 3 MSU and slot 4 marigold crackle, and most of my breeders have those marks but in different slots. I'd have to say goodbye to the entire project. It's hard to find niche marks that don't conflict because there aren't many, so it punishes a lot of players sfjhsdfhdfs.

I know that a lot of double or higher mark projects were ruined when the glitch was patched in 2015. But it's 2020, and the vast majority of the playerbase breeds in a different way and a lot of us rely on the method we've had for the almost four entire years I've been active. And I don't think it's fair to ruin even more projects by reversing the change and heavily altering everyone's playstyle (EVERY user, this will definitely change a lot) with one move, since so much of us are far past the change. It costs a lot to remove markings and to find studs that don't conflict whatsoever, and breeding projects are hard enough as is. Calculate trying to get a cub with, like, five specific marks (four from the king and one from the mother) and Tsavo mane even WITHOUT conflict, in ideal conditions with empty slots and no shared marks- it's barely even 3%. We don't need another new barrier to this, and not a new one that I didn't see coming after years of breeding like this. I think admins did a good job in patching the bug, and know what they're doing. I really would prefer this not to be implemented.

If you king a Dorsal Fur lion, but choose to keep your current king's looks, what happens to the mane the king originally had? Does it still become Crested?


Admin Response:
Yes, he will take on the Crested mane shape. It's required for the Dorsal Fur mutation.

I actually do have a question for staff, when you say reverse breeding does not work for this does that mean both ways, as in it will not count toward the lionesses’ (den owners) amount of cubs bred and the breeding buyer (as their lion sired them)? Or is it that if someone were to list crested lionesses for reverse breeds the one buying the breed would would have cubs count toward their total (as it is their stud’s cubs), but the lioness owner would not?

I read it three times but I just want to be sure that it absolutely does not work at all with reverse breeds for either party. Thank you, sorry if I sound stupid, just wanted to be sure.


Admin Response:
Reverse bred cubs do not count towards the challenge bar for both the lioness owner and the stud owner.
