Conquering a level in the thrilling co-op game *R.E.P.O.* is no small feat. Once you and your squad triumph and reach the Service Station, you'll have the opportunity to purchase various weapons and upgrades, including the valuable Energy Crystals. Let's delve into what these Energy Crystals do in *R.E.P.O.* and how you can acquire more of them.

What Are Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O.?

Energy Crystals are radiant yellow gems found at the Service Station, becoming available after you complete the first level. They come with a price tag ranging from $7K to $9K. The cost tends to be lower early in the game when difficulty levels are not as challenging. If you manage to navigate the initial stages with minimal damage from monsters, you'll have a better chance of purchasing these crystals right away.

Once purchased, Energy Crystals will automatically appear in the container, eliminating the need to manually transport them to the truck. However, these crystals have a finite lifespan and will degrade with use, eventually requiring replacement to keep the container operational. Typically, one crystal can recharge four battery sections of an item, while six crystals are needed to fully recharge the Energy Container.

How To Get More Energy Crystals in R.E.P.O.

Energy Crystals are exclusively available at the Service Station, and their high cost can be a challenge. To ensure you have enough cash to stock up on these essential items, it's crucial to loot and scavenge as many valuables as possible during each level. Only when you successfully complete a level with sufficient funds will the Taxman escort you to the Service Station.

When navigating particularly tough locations, it might be wise to focus on surviving with just enough money to pass the level, rather than risking everything for more valuables.

That's the rundown on Energy Crystals in *R.E.P.O.* and how to secure more of them to keep your team equipped and ready for action.
