The Energon Pub

A sad day, I went from 100.000 energon back to 20.000 without gambling being involved.

Right now it's my only option to avoid going bankrupt, getting money from other players will only temporarily help me.

Anyway, I've analyzed why this came to pass, my win rate in the missions is 48%. Thus I'll always keep on losing energon. I'm also not too fond of arena whoring since I'd abandon my fellow Autobots in the missions.

I think that the main problem is due to the the fact that we have level 0 to 3 in every mission. It would be far more balanced if we had missions like these:

1. Level 0 only: So all the beginners won't get slaughtered their first 120 missions.
2. Level 0-1: New players get a shot at making more XP and energon. Low tier level 1 players get a easy time making more cash.
3. Level 1 only
4. Level 1-2: similar to level 0-1.
5. Level 2 only
6. level 2-3

Well you get the picture.

Anybody else having problems like these?

How did you lose eighty thousand energon in one day? Did you buy an Electron Gun or something?

We staff are sorting the missions out as we speak. New brackets will be introduced, we're just fine-tuning the numbers.

I never said that it was in one day, this happend slowly over the weeks since I got all my bots to level 1.

At any rate, I only use weapons that are below 1000 energon.

No need, that wouldn't really solve the problem anyway since I would run out again eventually.

I've already reset my bots to level 0, now the cash atleast flows in again.

Check your builds. If you're losing money that quickly, odds are your build isn't all that great. I'm a firm believer that if the beast factions can make money then anyone can with a good build.

Yeah, if you have 4 or 5 good avoider builds, it dosnt matter what level you are, and where in that level you are, you should be making plenty of money.
