Um... why are you guys using Cantina energy and not hoarding it for double drops starting on the 25th?

I'm 0 - 0 if you are counting... ask me tomorrow after I spend about 1000 Cantina energy when there are DOUBLE DROPS.

I haven't spent brainpower to do the math, but it seems like the gain you would get from collecting 45 energy a day would be cancelled out by extra 5 energy you get every hour....I'd ask why you aren't using Cantina energy.

What they said, maine! You let it build up organically then throw your refreshes on top of it. I'll wind up missing out on one day's worth of organic energy, which is half of a refresh if you are counting. I'm currently at 731 Cantina Energy, so I won't get to the 1000 mark but I'll be close. And all from stacking refreshes for 25 hours.

I should add that before saving energy for both LS/DS battles and Cantina I made sure to get my 600 tickets in last night, and then for dailies I did the cheapest nodes possible for 3 hits. Nothing more.

5 cantina energy/hour at 24 hours = 120 energy per day, organically. That is a full refresh worth, not a half refresh.

45 cantina energy effectively doubled to 90 for double drops is less than the 120 lost from having your energy full.

Assuming a 10 energy node, that's effectively 12 chances at a character shard lost to gain 9 chances at a character shard.

What am I missing that you aren't better off spending that 120 energy instead of losing it?

Any energy you have before May 25th that will put you in excess of 144 should be spent.

The reinforcement abilities are so bad it doesn't really matter. Don't waste your energy with this. I spent a lot and just upgraded my fourth reinforcement and none of them make a bit of difference.
