I think they should share the same cost as REMs with afterglows. After all SE established the value of the afterglow affect as 9999 plutons/beitsu/boulders. Since Ergons lack afterglow they should cost 1 rock to upgrade.

If we do see any adjustment, which is doubtful, it will likely be splitting the difference and allowing Ergons to upgrade for 5k.
That would be a step in the right direction, but it doesn't address any of the problems of relative power of ergons/mythics compared to relics and empyreans. Namely that ergons and mythics are comparatively worse off than they were before the update, since Empyrean and Relic got such a big boost, down to dps parity in terms of Damage/Delay ratios getting broken across weapon types instead of staying linked.
