adiuskoelle Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Hi community, after I bought the juice tank, I could swear that 10 years ago, it did not only reduce the energyconsumption, but it also rised the energy outcome. Am I wrong or was the card downgraded? Thank you ! Adrian Timer likes this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEBOVIN Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) The card functionality has not been changed. As the building has been build very often by players without achieving a benefit (especially in RPVE), the tooltip has been updated to make it clearer that the potential gains of this building only kick in after the power well would normally have been depleted. Old text: Own power wells in a 20m radius consume 40% / 45% / 50% / 55% less power, thus producing more. New text: Within a 20m radius the remaining capacity of own power wells takes 40 / 45 / 50 / 55% longer to deplete. Production per time increment remains the same.

Kauzi Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 (edited) So it's best used shortly before a well would deplete? Edited February 28, 2021 by Kauzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thats the worst timing, because then there is almost no remaining capacity left that would take 40 / 45 / 50 / 55% longer to deplete... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cocofang Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 From the old description I always imagined it working this way: Normally the power capacity in a well translates 1:1 to power output. For 10 power in the well you will eventually also gain 10 usable power. But with Juice Tank the power in the well drains slower while the output remains the same. By the time you get your 10 usable power the well only lost like 5 of its power capacity. So in order to get the most out of your wells, you build Juice Tank asap. Because every point of power capacity in the well lasts longer while still giving you the same energy output. It's factual that the well will effectively produce more. But not because it does so faster but because its capacity simply lasts longer. In maps that take a long time you will end up with a HUGE energy pool. wanky likes this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
