Ah, the classic May Punk Breeding challenge. Defeat 200 lions in explore, and breed 20 crested cubs. If you're anything like me, the latter part of this challenge is quite a struggle.
I often don't have the money to pay the 5GB for a mane changer, and spending generally about 200SB (often more) per stud request leads to a crying bank account. Assuming you spend 200SB per stud request to a crested stud, and you get the most common 1 cub per litter, that's at absolute minimum 4,000SB spent on trying to get enough crested cubs to complete the challenge.

Something I love so much about this game is how easy it is to play, no matter if you have the money to buy GB or not. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for working hard to earn GB through gameplay (selling items, lions, etc...) but sometimes that's just not possible. I find it a bit disheartening that some people are unable to take part in what I think is a really fun challenge due to not having enough money. And yes, I know, mutations are a luxury, but when that mutation is incorporated into one of the monthly events, I think it would be cool if it was a bit easier for people to take part in!

Ok yes, yes Lia, we get the point. What's your suggestion?

In May only, I propose that NCLs have a chance at generating with the Crested mane shape!

I don't propose that EVERY lioness spawns with a crested mane, but I think it would be cool to be able to occasionally find a NCL in explore with the crested mane shape. This way, there is still value in buying Mane Changers, but those who can't afford these can focus their energy on lioness claiming instead!
This would also fit in with the theme of the event, and even goes well with V'Kai and Vashkartzen's daily quests of claiming NCLs.

So, let me know what you think! If you have any other ideas, or don't support, please feel free to let me know!

It's so tough right now, I've completely given up on this challenge. This would definitely help!!

I support but I have to add something. It's true that I changed my main's Queen's mane to Crested but on this account I just found crested studs with 30sb or 50sb per request.

Magnituda | Thanks for the support! I just looked on the first page of crested mane studs with a max stud fee of 50SB - almost all of them had in their stud's descriptions "not for public studding." I'm aware there are a few crested studs with low fees though, you're right! But personally, I always struggle to find them due to time zone differences n_n
Regardless, thanks for the support!

Yeah. It's also true that I started to breed lionesses on 14th. Two days before challange was announced. I remember how I struggled a year ago. This year I was done with it pretty quickly. So it's all about strategy. But I don't think that newer players should be "punished" for not knowing about the challange beforehand or not having enough sb/GB/territory to be able to finish it with ease.

NCLs that have sometimes crested mane are not game breaking but nice, little addition that would certainly help with challange and at the same time without making it too easy.
