That's the first time, where i saw Energy Gates in a Treasure Vault. Just wondering, if that's normal for tier 1.
Nice Tier 1 Treasure Vault with ENERGY GATES!!!
It's normal anywhere.
Though the ones guarding treasure boxes... generally don't give 3 energy's worth of loot.
Danger rooms for the win.
PROTIP: If it's available throw vials from the sides to open the chests before spending energy in the gates, grim selas and forge seals mostly worts it. Also if partying in 4 only one pays and everyone gets the loot.
It reels you into spending 3 energy, you know why? because some people think 'damn what if I dont spend that 3 energy and they might have some rare drop in them?' that is what annoys me about this game, because it never happens...
I only hit energy gates with mist otherwise just make up the difrence in Danger rooms, Arenas, and Graveyards.
Treasure Vaults randomize between a certain amount of possible maps for it.
At least one of them that I know of has an Energy Gate, always. There might be another one though, but not sure.
For me, it's not because I expect great things from behind the door. It's because there's an unopened door, and dangit, that is NOT acceptable to my adventuring senses.
Generally I would agree that its pointless to spend your CE on those. Up until yesterday when I got a Trojan Horseshoe from a box behind an energy gate in a Tier 3 treasure vault. 3 CE well spent! Probably wont happen again though. :/
and btw you added an x to the back of your link
