Allow us to see how much energy our teammates have in AQ/AW

Close your eyes and imagine this scenario with me:

You're sitting on a path in AQ, waiting to move... but you can't. Your teammate "Playa420_6969" is sitting at a linked node with 3/5 energy, and you're waiting for him to bring it down.

But how do you know whether Playa420_6969 is slacking or if he really is out of energy? How do you know if it's time for your alliance to cut ties with Playa420_6969 because he does this EVERY AQ.

Now. Imagine a world where you could click on Playa420_6969's icon and immediately see his energy amounts.

It would be glorious.

    Hmm, are you able to ask Playa420_6969 how much energy he/she has?

    Or maybe they are working and can't do anything about it regardless of energy left. I don't want people harassing me to move when I can't.

    Better communication between teammates. You can wait for 1 hour to come back and for sure that player should have at least 1 energy.

    This is a fantastic idea.... so kabam will ignore it. Being able to see everyone's current energy would be super useful.

    Sounds like you don't like or trust this guy. :smile:

    Anyway, but seriously, timezone issues suck, so we usually try to pair up depending where ppl live.....easier said than done but throw it out there and see what the higher ups think.

    I think this is a good idea.

    I see this a good idea because when you start the next section of an AQ meaning just after the miniboss, the outside paths are longer and require more energy. Someone may have just been online and had to go back to work or off the game for whatever reason and you can see who has the most energy to choose the longer paths. Also would be helpful if there's more than one linked node left on the boss and you're not sure which person can get to them in time. As a leader, it can be frustrating if the same person regularly doesn't move or contribute but if you see someone on full energy it's not necessarily fair to think of that in a bad way immediately. It might just have filled up whilst they're at work and they can't get on for a couple of hours. Overall I think it's a decent idea but it does have its drawbacks, would add pressure to people to feel like they need to be playing constantly.
