Is it a bug? 200 energy required to complete a lower tier Elder EQ

I need 10 energy to move between defenders (screen shot below)

From what I observed, Higher Tier Elder EQ only use 5 energy between the defenders. Screenshot from the youtube below. No energy was deducted from the tile to swap the champs.

Would @Kabam (Osaurus) Rex have a look at this issue otherwise it is pushing away the lower tier's player.

It's a bit too much energy required to complete a Elder EQ. Villiant only need around 100 energy while Paragon need 200 energy to complete one chapter of the EQ

Definitely a bug. They removed the choice but left the node in so you pay twice as much energy

How tf is it "200 energy"???

This is a lower tier Elder EQ as I mentioned. There are no tile to swap the champs.

Total 40 tiles at chapter 5 so I need 200 energy to complete this chapter. Now struggling to finish the chapter 6 that I started yesterday. Just 2/3 completed.

This looks intended. Cav and Thronebreaker got their own special version of Elder and not the same copy and paste that paragon and valiant have.

I'll check up on this tomorrow when folks are back in after the holiday.
It should be 5 energy per tile, but I don't believe the choice nodes cost energy in Elder.

@Kabam (Osaurus) Rex It's correct 5 energy per tile and no cost of energy of choice nodes in Elder EQ. I feel frustration that why we need to spend extra 5 energy on each empty tile of a lower tier (Cav & Thronebreaker) Elder EQ. At the end finishing the lower tier Elder EQ required double the energy vs a higher tier Elder EQ.
