Why did my Energy reset from 486 to 200?

Why didn’t anyone ever address this?

Each word has a link with a thread talking about the thing the OP complained about. There’s plenty information about this topic on this forum so it’s your own fault for not searching.

Talking now about the vitamins limitation, it’s always been like this HERE. I don’t know much about SW KR, the main server and the one we’re taking the content from, but it’s true that SW JP doesn’t have limitations on 100 EP vitamins, but it’s also true that you receive them ONLY DURING EVENTS. You don’t get them for free every day.

People complained about the energy and GF released the VIP system. If you really are willing to spend money for vitamins it’s better for you to buy the Silver & Gold VIP. With 400 EP and proper preparations you reach level 24/25 in about 5 hours. Using 3 vitamins gives you 300 more energy which gives you 3/4 hours more of gameplay. If you want to desperately do a 24h marathon you can always wait the EP reduction event while stacking more EP.

If weekly maintenances are always done on Thursday and they release the missing characters on that day you can wait 1 more day, or am I wrong? You waited for 2+ months for their release so you won’t die waiting 1 more day.

TL;DR: there are answers for all your problems but you’re too lazy to look for them

I dislike looking at the forum questions because of it being too much for me, so I prefer to state my own question even if it was already asked or talked about for a long time.

Besides, desperate people who like to run 24H marathons are usually the main people to throw their money out on such games. And apparently many people are annoyed by the energy system, so I doubt it'll stop them if you "gently" talk to them about it. It does not change that it annoys them.

Let's just hope they change the EP system soon. What I'm hoping for is energy cap to 400 and dungeon cost cut in half but like that would happen D'x I wish they would just remove the EP system in general.

Considering all of the major Korean MMOs have a stamina system (Elsword, Closers, etc), it's unlikely.

Personally, the cap on the number of packs we can use per day doesn't bother me (though the max energy amount per character could be a bit higher >.<). If you play other games outside of Soul Worker, the cap doesn't seem as bad, since you're dividing your time between games anyway.

Well, surely they have it. But even Elsword has one server without it, or more with the possibility to buy stuff in game for it. In korea it's sure, well.. It's a more busy country. Everyone has the standard of "Work is most important. Work work work." They have a way different lifestyle, and to imagine someone only playing games.. no no. That ain't much bad, but we have much more time in our hands. Even more the still "younger" generation.

For me honestly, Soulworker is the only game I found fun in lately, so to me it truly bothers me.

Let me clarify the misinformation. All Elsword servers have a stamina system in place that resets at a specific time, just like in Soul Worker. Also, for the NA Elsword server, it is impossible to buy/obtain stamina potions outside of specific events or trading rng coins at an npc for a random chance of obtaining one. Some story mission quests give you stamina potions, but they are not bank shareable.

Yes, people do have time on their hands, but spacing out that time between different games instead of focusing more intently on one is a better strategy.

I disagree, I'd rather be into one game spending my time in it than playing 10 games all at the same time. I normally become obsessed with one specific game and put tons of hours into it, then I take a break from it when I feel like it to maybe go back to one of my older games. At the moment, I don't really care to play other games so being limited to how much I can play is annoying, especially because I have to just take a break for 30 minutes in the middle of playing just to play for another 15 minutes. Some people have a lot of games they like to balance out but others like to just play the one specific game. It should really be up to the player for how much time they want to spend in the game at a time.

First off, I never said that others shouldn't focus on one game. I simply stated that switching between multiple games is a better use of time since you can't play more than the stamina system in Soul Worker allows you to. You are free to disagree, but doing other stuff when you can't play Soul Worker anymore doesn't sound like a bad strategy if you have time after playing. It's kind of common sense.

Well, while you focus on the main Elsword servers, I focus on the not official ones. Which are by far more successful at this point than most of the Elsword servers, including DE. The not official server has a perfect run, they have a strong community and they allow everyone to play as long and as much as they wish to. Which is the good way of it. The limitations just make people who really enjoy playing atm, and then suddenly are empty of energy, just get annoyed rather than glad they can take a break. We're in the age of time where we can and will more likely leave a game which has limitiations to our personal playstyle.

I have to completely disagree with you on this. The private server, Void Elsword, is notorious for rather aggressive players. They are nowhere near as "successful" as the main servers, especially since they are currently behind in content and updates, even compared to the NA server. The server does not have a "perfect" run, and its community is very disjointed, especially in the pvp aspect (you only need to google Void Elsword pvp) to get an idea.

The only thing Void has over the other servers is an cheaper market. If you're playing Elsword purely to dress up, then yeah, the server makes it much easier to do so. If you're playing it for the dungeons, Both KR and NA beat it by a mile.

A lot of people hates the energy system and I think it's pretty dumb as well. The limitations on EP pots as Alzii said shares the same purpose of the EP system to exist. As you can see here I made a thread time ago looking for people who were able to spend 500+ Energy or more on the 50% FTG event and the highest was 400+, kiiiiindaaaa proving how hard/impossible could be to achieve this with the event and that if people would like to spend a whole day playing the game they would basically just need to stack up 600 energy and wait for the weekend.

Regardless how up to us playing all day (and therefore maybe spend a bit more dollars on it) is they won't give us the 'will' to do it. 'Will' because we actually can but to achieve that with the same char we would need the EP event, 600 EP stacked up and 3 100 EP pots, I think it should be enough with that but can't properly tell and honestly that sounds too extreme but the point is that even if it's not, it is easily achievable with multiple chars so the EP system kinda loses it's purpose of making you log off if you care about more than 1 char. (Maybe should have used freedom instead will? excuse my english lol )
