Should AQ timer be reduced

Curious if others feel the AQ energy timer should be reduced to 30 minutes. Only reason asking for mere fact AQ isn’t all that great anymore and the rewards are very lacking and have been for a long time. So if AQ isn’t going to be improved along with the rewards why should we spend so much time on it. Already know that my alliance feels the same way.

Not to mention, assuming we put in the same effort as we do now, with the 30 min timers we can end the AQ early and free up champs for other content.
It's like asking for RDTs because new champs are so much better.
Now the argument on why we need 30 min timers I think is a legitimate one. AQ is boring and not a strong meta in the game now, I haven’t opened map 4/5/6 crystals in forever. When I open I can only open 10 at a time and I’m full in stash again. Honestly I just open to get the points for SA, they’re worth a decent amount. If they were to increase some of the rewards it would be outstanding. I cleared my stash out a few months ago and traded crystals. I’m back to the same place. Have 10-15 weeks worth of glory crystals, 25 t4 class crystals.
Before anyone says, I do rank champs, and my alliance isn’t even top 500. We slowed down in quest cuz it’s boring and focused on war.
Also I’m not a heavy spender, so I don’t get my t2a from buying. All from hard work in EQ and content. I do spend on t2a with glory and that’s the main reason we even do AQ.
The rewards are
Then make an argument to keep the timers
I work 2 jobs and have 2 kids. I never have an issue completing AQ.
That's never happened in my alliance when we have shorter timers. Everyone knows there is plenty of time to get it done and it's very relaxed. Actually the opposite of what you are suggesting.
Isn't ending earlier the point? So that you can free up the champs you used in AQ for other content like UC event.
Don’t have the roster? Lol
I do. So like for example I use my 5* Corvus in war and 4* Corvus in AQ. Maybe I need the 4* Corvus in questing too to counter certain champs. Being able to end AQ faster with decreased timers gives me that option.
Yes, I know I can just try using other champs in AQ, but it's about preference.
I finish AQ also. Doen't mean it isn't better with shorter timers.
Not much of a debate. People will always want shorter timers because it makes AQ better but it's obvious we aren't going to get them.
Faster for higher Maps and people with the same availability. Lower Maps really don't care much, and other people who don't have the time to check in every half an hour or live in opposite Time Zones aren't always available. Not sure why everyone is in such a rush anyway. It's still a 24-hour wait until the next Map.
“Alliance Quests are built for 1 hour timers. The maps are tuned to 1 hour timers, and this is definitely part of the challenge. Coordinating your alliance around the timer so you get the nodes you need taken down when you need them, and managing your resources (including energy) is a very important part of being in an Alliance.
When the map changes and becomes bigger (like Alliance Wars) or the cadence of Linked Nodes changes, then we may change the energy refresh timers. But we are not going to change them at this time.”
