Last time I played it was clan score, where can I read about it just to learn the basics? (Like why do I have an energy ratio, and how is it calculated)

Energy ratio:

The energy offset stat has been replaced with energy ratio, which is defined as total energy gained divided energy regen'd.

-October 1 Announcements

Energy ratio, along with level, wins, and ratio, are used to compute the energy your bot will generate per hour. (EPH)

And Ender hasn't released the exact formula, and most likely wont.

Though now out of date, this writeup has the basics of the energy system:

http://bots4.wikidot.com/clans

What's changed since then is that energy per hour (EPH) is variable and not fixed at 20. The formula for this is what Nos is referring to. Though I haven't released the exact formula, I have specified what stats go into it at some point.

Alright cheers, so a bot can be inactive yet helping the clan, by accumulating energy and not being an ideal target for others to attack?

How much energy is accumulated, if a person had a 1.0 ratio, compared to say a 50.0 ratio? Is it a significant difference or say 20/hour compared to 35/hour

1.00 ratio compared to 0.50 ratio will have a significant difference in EPH.

3.0 is the highest that will change your EPH. Level and your number of wins are the other factors. Keep in mind there are less targets to fight for energy as you level up though.

I also believe 6.0 is the highest offset on your energy modifier(that being the number in parenthesis) will effect you EPH. Though you talking about being dormant I'll assume yours will be sitting at 1.00.

Yep. EPH perks cap at (x6.00) for offset, 3.00 for ratio.
