Conquering a level in the co-op game R.E.P.O. is a significant achievement. After your victory, the Service Station awaits, offering a chance to purchase weapons and upgrades, including the invaluable Energy Crystals. Here's what they do and how to acquire more.
What Are Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O.?
These shiny yellow crystals, found at the Service Station after completing the first level, cost between $7,000 and $9,000. Early in the game, when difficulty is typically lower, they're often cheaper, providing an opportunity to stock up if you've had a successful run.
Purchasing an Energy Crystal adds an Energy Container to your R.E.P.O. truck. This container is crucial for recharging tools like the Valuables or Extraction Tracker. Simply place the tool in the container (indicated by a yellow lightning bolt) to begin recharging, saving money on replacements and boosting efficiency. Get ready to tackle those Clowns, Gnomes, and Shadow Children!
While automatically placed in the container upon purchase, Energy Crystals have a finite lifespan. Each crystal can typically recharge four battery sections of an item, with six crystals fully replenishing the Energy Container. They deplete with use and eventually break, requiring replacement.
How To Get More Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O.
Energy Crystals are exclusively purchased at the Service Station, but their high cost demands careful resource management. Maximize your loot and salvage valuables throughout each level to ensure you have sufficient funds. Remember, you only reach the Service Station after successfully completing a level with enough money.
During challenging levels, prioritizing survival and securing enough cash to clear the stage might be wiser than risking everything for extra loot.
That's all there is to know about Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O. Good luck out there!
