It’s been 7 years. It’s time to remove energy usage from failed runs and to introduce a way to farm skill tomes. Why hinder experimentation and hero building? Of all the changes to resist, these aren’t it.
I’m enjoying the beta right now, fully realizing that it’s early and there will be a lot of improvement before actual release. One sticking point for me though is trying to understand why rare/epic summons start at 1-star. Is this just a beta feature or intended? This is definitely one of the aspects of Raid that I feel creates better gameplay/progression.
