1 step forward, 3 steps back

I don’t understand with energy. Elder Marks served as a way for some players (myself included) to get through the Victory Track with no problem. Elder Marks should stay in the contest and if it’s really a point of contention, wins through Elder Marks should be equal to wins with energy just so players have the option to use one or the another.

Regarding energy refills in Free crystals. While I understand you want progressing players to have this “tension” with using their energy, this “tension” has no reason to exist with relatively endgame players who’ve completed all of the Acts, the most recent Carina Challenges, etc. Most Valiant+ players use energy to play Battlegrounds for fun, competition, or to hit their alliance minimum. You are severely affecting that.

If you want to remove energy from free crystals, sure. I ask that you provide Paragon or Valiant+ players a new crystal for energy refills since we don’t use energy to progress through the game (through Act 7 for example), but rather freedom to do other things (like Battlegrounds).

it’s always one step forward and three steps back And I'd leave you, but the roller coaster is all I've ever had Olivia Rodrigo says and it puts the game perfectly some times the game has good events like pool shields but after that it goes back

@Kabam (Osaurus) Rex @Kabam Crashed if I may add a suggestion - if you’re going to remove refills from free crystals, can you put them in the “big” solo event crystals?

They won't and relics tell us why. Because they spent so long doing nothing about relics, many players stockpiled shards because there was nothing to do with them, so they felt the need to make the new relics with new shards because of the money they would lose, disguised as "unfair balance" because of how many crystals players would be able to open right away.

You know how much worse that would be with solo crystals? I have like 45m shards plus a few hundred already formed crystals and I've probably got one of the smaller numbers. They'd have to make the drop rate so low that it would be harder to get than Immortal Iron Fist, otherwise we'd never have to worry about energy again. Unfortunately they just won't do that.
