Energy Loss

I know this was mentioned a few days ago by someone, but I feel like I am losing energy super fast.  I have 4090 full tank and it took me less then 30 mins to lose almost all of it.  When my tank was less, i could almost go a whole game day without losing a full tank.  That doesnt make sense.  So just watching my tank now, when I am just walking randomly lost 33 energy!  Thats kind of alot for just walking. then while scraping barnies, I went from 1510 to 1471 in one scrape.  2 would be barnie cost, but 37 for no reason?  Something just feels off.  Its seems like the bigger I make my energy tank, the faster I lose energy.  I've died more in the last week from energy loss then I have in all my game play in 2 years.

Plus, using meditation to increase energy is pointless, since average gain is about 50, but Im losing 35+ while meditating!

  • my understanding is that you lose  0.8% of your maximum energy every 90 seconds.

    For a tank of 4090 that's 33 every 90 seconds

    I don't think there has been a change, at least I haven't noticed any effect

    Energy Decay Over Time
    Every 90 seconds you lose 0.8% of your maximum energy.  More time played mean less value from maximum energy.  In fact, over 4 hours this adds up to 128% of your maximum energy, so if you play for an entire game day, start to finish, then this more than cancels out your daily energy refill.
