MCoC Trucos keeps track of the energy costs. They haven't made a chart for every month, but they have for most months. Please take a look at their records of the energy costs here.

As you can see, the costs for this month are significantly higher than previous months.Going from 1,431 to 1,664 is a 16% increase, which is definitely a lot. In fact, 1,431 was also higher than most months, so this is the most expensive month by far.
You could send out three full energy refills to every player, and it wouldn't make up the difference.
A few months ago you said that energy requirements were being reduced... nownthey have gone way up...
There should be more scaling between the amount of paths and energy per node between the difficuties also...
It is great that begginer is shorter and cheaper....
Why is normal, heroic and master all the same????
It makes sense uncollected is higher but there should be difference between the rest....
I don't need a "fast path" to cheat my way through completion but I need maps that don't make me angry because they sprawl in every direction for no reason. Take three nodes off every path in 3.2 and it saves 63 energy per difficulty level (42 beginner), and it's still bigger than any other map you've done for EQ. It's insulting the way this was designed.
Not just a slight increase. My best guess is more cost for greater rewards (chaos rifts). However, they haven’t done that in the past (first chaos rifts, rocket’s scrapyard, etc.)
I like to 100% B-N-H-M-U, this month even more then others.
All difficulties costs 6.924 energy (almost more then 1.000 compared to last month).
this month we also have rifts! 100% BNHMU gives us enough shards to run 2xT1;2xT2;2xT3;3xT4 for a total of 396 energy.
it is 7320 energy total.
How many energy can you have in 30 days?
Not sure if this was already mentioned... I only read the first page of the thread before commenting.
They did the math.
It's a 21% increase in total energy from last months quest.
There's definitely a change and probably why you have 15 "LOL" responses.
I like this response. Hard to argue facts, although some do.

I'd like to suggest one change: "an RNG chance" for greater rewards. There's a very meaningful difference.
Dr. Zola
I didn't sit down and do the math. I'm not that bothered by it. Not really bothered by the LOLs either. It's not the end of the world for me. I take my time and use Energy that fills. Saves from using Units. Then I use Units I Grind for. Personally I don't feel they need to justify every change they make to their own product.
You clearly aren't thinking of the thousands of people who also have to do Uncollected when defending the length of this months EQ.
People don't HAVE to do anything. A couple extra runs for the Rewards is fair. They would have been doing it regardless. There's an element of entitlement here that's not proportionate. People are placing pressure on themselves to do all Rifts possible, then complaining about the effort they need to put in. Do the math on the Rewards available in those Rifts and see if you can't excuse the Energy you need to put into Exploration. If you can't see how it would be reasonable, chances are your expectation is off.
However they haven’t done that and have previously said quests won’t take more than a full set of energy at 70 (incorrect) and that monthly variations won’t change too much (incorrect).
One of the repeated complaints against Kabam is a lack of openeess and this just feels like another attempt to pull the wool over people’s eyes.
Maybe I'm just looking back through rose-colored glasses, but the communication and even camaraderie between game team and community was a lot better when Ad0ra was more active on the forums. There was much more meaningful give-and-take. I realize she was front and center when the suicides changes and 12.0 occurred, but it always seemed like she was able to make definitive and fulsome statements and wasn't afraid to tackle issues. I like to think she would have been more upfront about changes like these.

or even the guardians of the galaxy was 1203 energy, not to mention hotel modok was 1301
