It was mentioned before many times, the energy problem needs to be addressed. Everything slows down the more you progress. High level dungeons cost 14 for one run with high chance of getting a brew or green shard.

Hey! Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the subject. As an active player myself, I understand where you are coming from. However, things are not as complicated as it may seem. First of all, I would like to say that we will keep adding more and more ways to get Energy as a reward for all kinds of in-game activities. Secondly, this resource is renewable, as you know. We will mot remove Energy completely and I will quote an excerpt from Marius' article about implementing suggestions in the game: 

3) Remove Energy from the game and make every stage free. Far too many features and mechanics are tied in to the finite - yet renewable - resource. Without it, we would have to revamp the entire Level Up and Rank Up system, remake many rewards, reconsider a typical game cycle and, generally, turn Raid upside down.

This is the article itself:

Sometimes current free energy is too much for me because i have real life also.

40 gems for energy is really not that bad and i have bought a lot of them when i have more time to play or want to finish event etc. And i'm not hardcore gamer lol

The other issue with removing the energy system, auto clickers will become way more powerful and useful. 

Imagine if you have unlimited energy, someone loads up a dungeon, loads up an auto clicker and then goes to sleep. They get to sleep peacefully knowing that when they wake up they'll be in a much better situation game wise.

Say you beat a stage in 3 minutes (fairly easy to do at about level 40) thats 160 free runs if you sleep for 8 hours. Thats a lot of great gear for no effort at all. Or thats the mino grind made easy. And thats just sleeping, imagine if you just leave the game running on auto. You check back once every now and then to ensure its still working and to swap out your teams. 

A lot of high level people spend the vast majority of their gems on energy. Once you've got a decent roster, buying shard packs for a tiny chance of a decent champ isn't as worth it compared to buying gaurenteed energy. 

If the devs removed the energy system, not only would they lose a lot of money but a lot of higher levelled players would feel cheated. They've spent hundreds to be able to progress and build their teams and now someone can do the same by not even playing.

With Free energy refills from daily/weekly/monthly quests, free refill for playing over an hour a day and free energy as rewards in most events we already have quite a bit. With a max level mine and all the extra gems gained through playing you can buy quite a few energy refills on a regular basis as well.

There's not much in the game that wouldn't benefit from a slight rework but energy is something that I believe the devs got spot on.

I completely agree with you @DARKFIRE and @CIRILLA that removing the energy would make this game collapse into people using autoclicker all the time and the mechanics that would completely change, that's definitely not something I want.

It's just that I like to spend time in games like these that acquire you to grind in order to become stronger, now like I said, 15 minutes, maybe 20 minutes of playtime max per day is just not interesting enough for me.

If you would gain twice the amount of energy on a daily basis I would be satisfied (only for the players that actually play every day, so still as a reward from the daily quests and play time).

The suggestion of increasing the energy gain cap level would be something too look into as well I suppose.

Cheers!

Clan boss alone takes more than 20 min a day.

Arena takes more.

Also free energy u get - if u do dungeons average 3min(if u are not whale who have bought super champions and gears to do runs in 1min) per run is already like hour or so of playtime.

So about what game are u talking about if it's max 20min of playtime?

Not sure what clan boss you are fighting but the boss I'm fighting won't let you live that long.

My biggest issue isn't the limitation of the energy each day.  It helps people to NOT waste hours and hours on end and to have a life outside of the game.

My biggest issue is with the limitation of the energy COMBINED with events that require SUBSTANTIALLY more energy than is practical for someone to save up. 

You either participate in say one event a month (by saving gems, energy, etc.), or you don't get the actual decent rewards from finishing the events.  Your only other option is to pay.  Since I am sure their cash cow is people buying energy, it won't be going away anytime soon, hence why it is already listed as a change they will not implement.  Plarium isn't going to do something that would cut their profits that substantially.  I mean imagine how many people have spent a ton of money for energy farming the dungeon champions.  They know what they're doing.
