Refreshes shared with new ship energy?

So I did 1 crystal refresh on the Ships PVE table and it cost 100 crystals. I did 3 refreshes of normal energy earlier today. My question is, are the refreshes shared between currencies? Or is the 1st ship energy you do each day, going to cost 100 crystals? @CG_SBCrumb

    I haven't done any normal energy refreshes so they're still 50 for me. Ship energy shows as 100. So I would say not shared.

    As long as we are asking questions, does ship energy spent count toward earning raid tickets?

    (It does not appear too, according to at least one guildmate)

    Also, For the OP, I had only purchased 2 normal energy crystal refreshes for the day, and ship energy was also a 100 crystal refresh for me.

    Thanks for confirming. Wish they had told us that in the notes @CG_SBCrumb

    The new ship energy works the same as Cantina energy. 12m per energy refresh and 100 crystals.

    Edit: Though it looks like we get bonus energy several times a day like regular energy.

    I'll put it this way they put it at 50 crystals for a refresh I would buy it once or twice a day. At 100 I'll never do a refresh.

    I think it costs the same as cantina energy.

    Looks like it's just once a day, but later.

    Yeah I saw that. So indeed it does work exactly like Cantina energy then.

    You must not participate in fleet arena, and/or you must already have Sion at 7*/have no desire to farm him. Ship omegas, reinforcement mats, zetas, and hard-node only shards? 100 crystals is very fair. I already have Sion 7* and I'm still happy to spend 100 crystals on ship node refreshes for the omegas, zetas, and mats.

    How is your comment related to what you responded to? He said he won't do refreshes for 100 crystals. I won't either. I will happily farm Sion daily with my free energy. I just won't waste crystals on expensive refreshes.

    Same.
    If they are gonna play it like cantina, they need to get rid of the 5 per day limit off hard mode. Or make it like regular energy. This worst of both worlds is crap

    Why on earth doesn’t it count towards daily raid energy so if we want to refresh that and earn raid tickets it will take double the crystals.

    It’s energy being spent it should count towards raid tickets.

    Rescaling the whole system to make ship battles count towards raid tickets would have been a lot of work for free. They rarely do something which will not bring more packs to buy or more spending pressure.

    Or they didnt want to force players to have to play more time, because actually why they didnt do it.

    And spending more on this game than a new car costs isn't a waste for everyone. But I can't speak for them, and it's also irrelevant to what I said.

    It does not. Dev just confirmed.

    Did they give a reasoning or is it just another "go pound salt, players" response.

    How would the ship table make players play longer. Once a battle node is simmable, there is no time involvement...

    It takes thousands of dollars for a 100-200 extra energy a day? I don't know what game you're playing.

    Right now you have to do a 50 crystal energy refresh at minimum to hit 600. The obvious reason is that this would remove that requirement.

    The REAL reason it doesnt count towards raid tix:
    Natural energy gain
    Cantina 120/day +45 bonus
    Normal 240/day +135
    540 energy a day naturally. If they allowed ship energy to count towards raid tickets, f2p could all hit 600/day without spending any Crystal's. Currently to hit 600 you must spend Crystal at least once every couple days to hit a daily 600
