Making sure you understand how the Crystal of Atlan Account Energy system works before you start spending it is key to efficiently progressing through the game! Want to make a second character in Crystal of Atlan? Take a look at our Crystal of Atlan Tier List to help.
Crystal of Atlan Account Energy
How to spend it and what it is!
What is Account Energy?
You are required to spend Account Energy when progressing through Main Story quests and during Game Modes. Each character has a total of 120 Energy, which refreshes every day. Are you running out of Account Energy quickly? You can save up and use Batteries to replenish a character’s Energy.
Or maybe you’re finding the opposite is occurring, where you aren’t spending all of your Energy daily? In that case, this leftover Energy is stored, capping at 70 and changing to Reserve Account Energy, doubling your potential drops.
Until a character reaches level 60, your Account Energy is ‘Character Energy’, applying to each character currently on your account. However, upon a character reaching level 60 for the first time, your Energy becomes account-wide and increases to 840.
What Should You Spend Account Energy On?
You cannot progress past Chapter 2 without spending Account Energy – Chapter 1 does not require it! But, remember that you can only complete one chapter each day, so there’s only so much Account Energy you’ll be spending on the Main Story quests per day anyway.
If you wish to spend the excess Account Energy, you can attempt to beat the Elite variants of the Main Story quests for additional loot or take part in other Game Modes. I recommend utilising your Account Energy when obtaining new gear or resource materials for character progression.
Shards and Insignias are two major components to building your Crystal of Atlan characters, which you can farm for by spending your Account Energy. As mentioned above, completing Elite variants of quests is a great way to spend your extra Energy, including the Abyss, which unlocks the Weekly Conquest game mode.
