Introduction: Get More From Every Minute You Play
If you've been grinding hard in Crystal of Atlan and you've got multiple characters sitting at level 60, it's time to unlock the full potential of your alt army. Managing energy across five characters might sound exhausting, but with the right plan, you can get massive value without burning out.
This guide breaks down how to make the most of your energy—daily and weekly—so you're not just playing more but playing smarter. Whether you're farming for legendary drops, golden insignias, or just loading up on fragments and permits, this step-by-step approach keeps things efficient and casual. Let's dive in.
Requirements Before You Start
Before diving into the actual energy strategy, let’s make sure your setup is ready. First off, each of your five characters needs to be level 60 or higher. Also, make sure you’ve unlocked all the main content in Crystal of Atlan, especially Critical Conquest—this will ensure all relevant game modes are available to you.
Next, aim for at least 2,000 nullification on every character. While 3,000 is ideal, 2,000 is more attainable for most players right now. You’ll also want to craft five double energy potions daily across all alts. These potions are essential for keeping your farming loop running smoothly. Lastly, owning the Fantasium Pass helps a ton. It’s optional, but the extra benefits make energy management easier. If you picked it up during the recent fleet event, you're already set.
Setting Your Weekly Goals
To get the most value from your energy, stick to a few simple but high-impact goals. First, aim for 435 match fragments every day. This amount helps you maintain a steady pace in your progression and unlocks solid rewards over time. Second, make sure you’re collecting enough hunting permits to run Purgatory daily without interruption.
Third, prioritize acquiring Critical Conquest scrolls. You should target 30 scrolls per character weekly. That means 150 scrolls in total across five characters. If you're only using four alts, 120 scrolls is still solid. As your main finishes farming Purgatory gear, you’ll eventually rotate them into your alt cycle to balance things out.
Daily Energy Planning: The Basics
Each day, you're given 840 energy to use. But here’s where it gets interesting—you only need 420 of it to consistently collect your 435 daily fragments. This is done by combining Purgatory and Void Realm runs (level 55+), where each character gets one free Purgatory entry (no permit needed). That’s a 100-energy value per character that costs nothing.
Add in a free Void Realm run for each character, and you get another 100 energy in value—again, no permits required. That means you're only responsible for covering 220 energy per day to hit your fragment goals. To put it simply, 220 hunting permits daily is the target for full efficiency. It’s a lot easier than it sounds, especially once you build a weekly farming rhythm.
Weekly Breakdown: Energy and Permits
Over a full week, you’ll need 1,540 hunting permits (220 per day × 7 days). That's also how much actual energy you’ll be using—1,540. But if you’ve hit 3,000 nullification, you're unlocking 15 Void Realm runs per week. That’s three per character, giving you not only the same number of fragments as Purgatory, but also 15 guaranteed legendary drops. Even better? These runs require zero permits.
This setup saves you 300 permits per week and gives you items you can dismantle into stones to boost your main. Once your main finishes farming Purgatory, rotate them into the energy loop with your alts and focus on transferring stones and bonus materials.
Permit Generation Tips: Where to Get Them
One of the biggest challenges in optimizing your week is permit management. Thankfully, Crystal of Atlan gives you plenty of ways to collect them. Start with the Golden Fleet Challenge, available three times a day on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. That’s nine runs a week, which gives you 900 hunting permits—a massive chunk of what you need.
That leaves you with a shortfall of just 640 permits to reach your weekly goal. To cover that gap, use the extra 2,940 energy (from the second half of your daily energy budget) and pour it into Critical Conquest and elite stages. Focus on stages that drop licenses since every 500 energy spent typically earns around 145 licenses, which you can convert into permits when needed.
Guilds and Arena for Backup Permits
If your characters are in active guilds, weekly guild quests are a great source of extra permits. You can earn up to 80 permits per character, adding up to 400 across all five. Even if your guild isn’t super active, hitting at least 150 extra permits this way is doable.
Still short? Head over to the arena. Participate in 1v1 or 3v3 battles and use the shop to fill in any remaining permit needs. With a combination of Fleet Challenge, Critical Conquest, guild quests, and PvP shop rewards, you’ll easily hit your 1,540 permit target—and sometimes even go beyond it.
Making the Most of Excess Energy
After handling your permit goals and fragment farming, you’ll still have over 2,400 energy left for the week. This is where smart planning gives you a serious edge. Use this energy in Critical Conquest to farm additional scrolls and licenses. With 2,440 energy, you can get an extra 500 licenses, which equals around 90 permits and 145 more licenses for future use.
It’s important not to rush converting these licenses into permits. Permits can be transferred between characters, but licenses can't. Keep your licenses and use them directly for Critical Conquest runs, especially on characters that need more scrolls. The scrolls not only drop fragments and loot but also give you a chance to score Golden Insignia Boxes—some of the most valuable items in the game.
Alt Routine: What to Do Each Day
Managing five alts might seem overwhelming, but the daily routine is simple once it's locked in. Start with 60 green energy on Purgatory and follow with 80 green energy on Critical Conquest. Each character gets 20 free energy each day, reducing what you need to spend.
You’ll need 40 permits per alt daily for Purgatory. For Critical Conquest, use licenses whenever possible. Don’t combine licenses into permits unless absolutely necessary—permits are easy to get, licenses are not. Aim for 30 Critical Conquest runs per character per week. That gives you 30 scrolls, which increases your chances of golden insignia drops and valuable permit bonuses.
Golden Insignia Farming: Smart Targeting
Each scroll you earn has a 10% chance to contain a Golden Insignia Box. With five characters and 30 scrolls per week per character, that’s 150 scrolls in total—meaning 150 chances at high-value drops. Even if RNG isn’t on your side, these boxes still give you permits or fragments, making every scroll worth it.
Want better odds? Focus your Critical Conquest runs on “A” stages that align with your character’s elemental build. For example, if you’re playing a Berserker with a pyro build, prioritize pyro stages when the matching insignia is up. That way, every scroll has a better chance of giving you the specific insignia you need to boost your setup.
Best Use of Account Energy
Your account-wide energy (140 per day) is flexible. Use it for whatever you’re currently chasing—be it Purgatory, Critical Conquest, or elemental “A” stages. You don’t need to save this energy for Void Nest since each character gets 70 bonus energy per week to cover it. Instead, dump account energy into stages that increase your odds of golden insignia drops.
You can store up to one day of account energy, so if you’re unsure where to spend it, hold onto it and use it later in the week for maximum value. A good rule of thumb: always spend until you see your target insignia, then bank what’s left for the next rotation.
How to Rotate Your Main Character Efficiently
Your main should focus entirely on Purgatory until you’ve collected all the gear you need. Use 140 green energy daily on nothing but these runs. Don’t worry about Void Nest—that’s covered by free energy anyway. Once your main finishes farming all the epic gear, you can cycle them into your alt rotation and let them share the energy load for scrolls, permits, and insignias.
Since Crystal of Atlan doesn’t penalize you for rotating characters, use your main just like any other alt once they’re done farming. The legendary pity system still applies, so continuing to run Purgatory for extra loot is always a win, even if you’re no longer chasing specific drops.
Wrap-Up: Your Efficient Energy Plan
By now, your weekly routine should look something like this:
-
Daily:
-
60 energy on Purgatory (per character)
-
80 energy on Critical Conquest (per character)
-
Use 140 account energy on targeted “A” stages or hold for scroll farming
-
-
Weekly Targets:
-
435 fragments per day
-
1,540 hunting permits
-
150 scrolls (30 per character)
-
Up to 15 legendary items from Void Realm
-
With the right prep, some decent nullification, and consistent energy spending, you’ll never run short on rewards again. And best of all, this setup avoids burnout. You’ll get the most out of all five characters without turning the game into a full-time job.
Conclusion: Master the Grind Without the Burnout
Using five characters in Crystal of Atlan can seem overwhelming, but with a solid energy optimization plan, it becomes manageable—and rewarding. From hitting your fragment and scroll targets to stacking permits and farming golden insignias, this guide helps you make the most of your playtime. Stick to the routine, adjust based on your goals, and rotate characters smartly once your main is done farming key gear. It’s not about grinding harder—it’s about farming smarter.
