Energy Deduction

Not sure if this is a bug or i missed something in the update's for Demi's

I have 2 Demis equipped each that on their own drain 744 each but my total turn deduction of 4045 per turn (nearly 4x the combined cost of the individual demi's), is this a bug or is there a multiplier in effect that i missed

thanks

You know I don't think it's in the updates.

The combination cost of demi's isn't linear, it goes up as you equip more so it's not just 1+1

can u please elaborate on the non linear energy usage for having more than 1 demi equipped as the ammout of ats spent on energy thats not accurate will turn out to be a waist to have more than 1 demi equipped.

demi 1 744 per tc
demi 2 565 per tc

1339 per tc is supposed to be
deducted energy is 3640

is there a specific formula u worked it out or can u adjust it to be more accurate or make it linear in a way as the time spent on wrekages is enourmous and now with more demis equipped it will be more quiet in the server and more time will be spent as the more u equip the more than ussual energy will be used and the more time u have to invest in not having demis equipped

It's exponential in nature.

It's been like that since I created it :P.
Not that it's super easy to get energy now :P

We didnt tried to use more than one demi to spare energy, thats why we only noticed now, since there was no display information about it there
Isnt easy to gain energy, there no enough ats to mass, farm and wreckages, im almost able to have 4 demis active, seems worthless now imagine the nuclear powerplant i would need, energy goes away fast, and we shouldnt be able to change demis for at least 18 hours to avoid exploits, SOL please change this aditional energy, it will take the fun of all features

Just keep signing up to the plague tournaments, more energy as a reward from that thing than you can shake a really big stick at :D

Not sure if any of the other tournaments reward mass & energy as well.

Also, the new Wreckage turns should help with farming energy :)

Isnt easy to participate in tournys it takes time, and in plague tournys if you came up 1 day late theres nothing to farm
Wreckages turns isnt that great is about 15-20% more ats, and still dont count for ME

oh boy taf noobs crying all over the place :D should i cry that 15 seconds delay between attacks is too much, cause it takes time, and i dont have enough time to play with such big delays, lets remove it as now i have too much turns and cant use them all ;)
