I'm new to this game, I've only been playing for 3 days, Up to now i've really been enjoying this game! But the one thing that is frustrating is how long I can play the game for. When I was playing this game for the first time I was able to play for a long time but now (the day this thread was posted...) I was only able to play for about 15 minutes, 10 minutes was just me being annihilated by monsters!
what happened...

Anyway so when I logged on I spent about 3 minutes thinking about whether I should go fight the Snarbolax again for tokens or just continue with the ranked missions, soon I decided to just continue with the rank missions. I was started the mission playing with 3 people, I thought that we would do quite good since there were 3 of us... but I was wrong... terribly wrong! we started of the mission doing good until we got to a point where we got bombarded by skeletons that kept on inflicting stun and annoying gun-puppies that were my out out of reach. So while I was being smashed in to the ground by skeletons, gun-puppies were shooting and killing us forcing some of us to energy to revive a lot. It got really bad! Seriously every time I got revived or revived my self there was some group of skeletons ready to corner us and smash our faces in to the wall, leaving me with only one bar of health left. It got so bad that one of the 2 people that was helping us left so it was just me 1 other guy. Luckily we were close to the end that level/depth, we had only one more to go; I was starting to feel a sense of relieve because it was the last level/depth of that mission, but again I was terrible wrong! This level/depth was the worst of all! The monsters were like Ghosts, there were totally demolishing me and the other guy, even my shield was totally useless; they were biting through it like it wasn't even there! They were throwing and smashing us like they were playing a game of tennis with us, fighting was so hopeless that we had to run through the entire level running away from all the monsters! all of this left me with like 6 energy (WHICH MEANS THAT ALL GOT WASTED IN 10 MINUTES! LEAVING ME TO HAVE TO WAIT AN OTHER 22 HOURS TO GET 100 ENERGY AGAIN!!)...yes it was pretty sad and disappointing...
Anyway back to my original point...

The amount of energy that is need to revive quite a lot (when you die a lot...) also unlike some ,probably a lot of players, I can't buy any energy. I know you can buy energy but beginners like me can't buy energy because we haven't got enough money. Is there anyway for me to:
-> Save energy
-> Get a lot of money
Also I've noticed on the Wiki that it says that you need 200 energy to craft tier 3 weapons and armor, how do you get 200 energy when energy only goes up to 100?
Thx for reading :)
Many new players seem to have issues with energy. The entire energy system prevents prices on equipment from skyrocketing (imagine having to pay >20kCr for a 2* Wolver item) by limiting the amount of crowns and materials generated through regular gameplay (limits how long people can play in the Clockworks), but limits how long you can play before going into reserve/crystal energy. There should be a tutorial NPC who blabs on about energy before the Snarbolax mission they force you to talk to.
If you revive with energy that revival cost will increase with every death until you leave the Clockworks and reenter. One of the key features of this game is playing with a team. If you have a buddy with you they can revive you by giving you half of their health and neither of you lose energy. Reviving with energy fully restores your health and gives longer invincibility frames following your revival, but those few seconds only last for so long.
You seem to have problems fighting T1 enemies. If a mission is too difficult try repeating earlier missions to get a better handle of the gameplay before reattempting.
Using energy beyond your mist (100E) requires consumption of crystallized energy which can be bought through other players or through the premium store, though only crafting 3* and higher rated equipment absolutely requires the use of this resource. You do not have to use it for elevators, reviving, or 2* and lower rated equipment. Mist is always used before crystal.
