i was watching an idra replay and he got vessel energy. so im thinking why would he get it, not like his vessels will reach maximum energy and i just strugged it off thinking he knows better than me, guess it makes sense now
He who turns those around him into allies, possesses the most terrifying ability in the world.

The only other energy-using "unit" that doesn't receive the 12 mana buff is the comsat station, as there's no upgrade to give it 250 energy (Which would be omfg imba :p ).

All other units using energy both pop out of a building and have an upgradeable energy pool.

On an unrelated note: I wonder if there will be energy upgrades in SC2, and I further wonder if they will work the same way. Dev Q&A question maybe?

you should also note that Dark Archons wont morph with 62/250 even with the upgrade.

Knew of but never figured it was game-breaking (better spent elsewhere), so never researched for the initial energy boost.

I think for Terran players, the energy upgrade is good, but the cost for the upgrade is the same for the price of one Siege Tank, which, in my opinion, is more cost-effective than Medics with more energy.

And even if you're in a huge macro maxed battle, Ultralisks will still kill Marines in three hits whether or not Medics have that upgrade so, late game, won't really help that much and can be used for another Siege Tank or couple of Marines that can be put into bunkers to defend a expo from non-swarm lings.

thats why some ppl reserarch arbiter energy upgrade before stasis, it helps arbiter reach mp to use its spells that much quicker, and your first arbiter will pop out with more mp

Bit newbie question maybe, but seems like a good thread to ask.

Cosidering TvZ going into 3tank/1vessel push, would it be more benefitial to start upgrading energy before irradiate considering mutalisks are no longer an issue? Seems to me having your 2nd or 3rd vessel popping out with irradiate almost ready, or even d-matrix faster can be quite a big boost fighting 2-3 defilers if push doesn't break the zerg. (irradiate will obviously be late too, but not sure how the relative timings work there, halp)

Same. I love emp in tvz, so that's more important to me. And really, you should never build up that much energy on your vessels if you are active around the map. The energy boost is nice, but unless you are losing a lot of vessels -- which you shouldn't -- you should have enough vessels with the energy capabilities to accomplish what you want.
