standard energy cap

So decided to take a cue from ahnald and start banking energy to get as close as possible to a day 1 unlock for GL Luke, only to find a little surprise



Tried a few different number combos and it looks like once you're over 2k energy you can't purchase anymore with crystals.

I call shenanigans. Looks like they forgot something in the update notes...

    Well then it definitely makes less sense that they allow you to continue to collect energy from other places and not from buying refreshes.

    Especially with the play bundles, seems like an oversight and I still call shenanigans


    It's not an oversight. The cap was added to prevent you from using crystals to get infinite energy. There is not only no good reason for them to disallow buying packs that give energy with money, but there are plenty of bad ones. Most notably, you never want to tell a paying customer that they can't give you their money.

    Allowing what could be considered an exploit is reason enough to call shenanigans, thanks ?

    Not arguing against their being a cap, but not OK with their being ways to circumvent it.
