How to acquire AD?

drakcert · December 2013

So far the only viable way I've seen is DD, but my luck is very bad, I have not won anything since I was 60, and I have 500 seals drake, daily quests take long for little ad, salvage gives me very little, besides having limited refining.

Please share workable methods to ad.

Leadership, daily quests, and salvage are the main ways to get rough AD. Once you get leadership up to 20, you should be able to pump out a fairly steady stream of RAD to keep you close to the daily limit.

and now multiply that with more than one char on your account and you know where the riches of some players come from...
just take pvp 60s daily. it is 4k a day. once a week another 8k. so doing it on one char gives you 36k a week. if you have 4 chars that is 144k a week only by doing the pvp daily. then keep in mind that you earn glory by just doing the dailies. when you buy the gear with glory and salvage it you should be able to gain another 4-8k at least every week on each char, which is in total 176k (max) a week by only doing the daily pvp. then consider that those 4 toons are all doing leadership dailies, too, and you have even more ad each week. not to forget invoking on all 4 chars each day for the limit! and maybe you bought another 2 slots and have 6 chars...

Four chars completing a four-pvp session each, every day... that will take a long time of your life. When all the bases keep being contested, evec one pvp session can last and last and last.
As for leadership, it takes four months of daily clicking to reach lvl 20.

My guess is, the real large fortunes, the ones with tens of millions of AD were not made through Leadership, invoking or Rhix bonusses.

How to make ad fast and in large amounts is a tricky thing... truth is that 90% just cant do it because is design to be like that. Now and then some cracks appear in the system and u can take advantage to increase your income, but they are fixed as soon as possible so u;ll need to find something else. Only steady way to gain ad is by getting RAD, leadership/invoking at lvl 20 can get u close to 24k per day with only a few minutes of play time.

Your best bet is to start learn how to milk AH, search for small profits here and there and given enough time some rly good opportunity will come (but it takes just as long as fragment farming for example). So in the end try to play the game and whatever makes u feel good is the only real gain u get from this.

Edit: As u can imagine the guys that are really wealthy at this point are either by buying zen (legit and i thank them for supporting the game) or by cheating the hell out of the game (yes it can be done and is done daily by almost all so called top guilds).

Level a rogue to 60. Solo lvl 60 epic dungeons. Sell gear on ah. Get mad amounts of ad.. My buddy made a couple million ad in a few hours doing this.. lol..

I wanted to also ad, you can make a ton if you know the market and can play the ah some. Before I quit, I had about 300kad and 100 gold. Decided to play around buying keys w/ ad, selling for gold, trading for coal wards etc. After a few weeks, I had over a million ad and around 1400 gold. It didn't take much time at all. Just have to know what you can combine to make a profit.

Gold I have. This double XP weekend I leveled so fast my poor (pun intended) rouge has no AD. But what I wanted to do was build a new one anyway so I'm happy. I'll just farm Grimak Nailbiter and the Witch Fen and salvage the gear. Plus I stay in the Blighted Grove for awhile getting seedlings and crescents. The Fomorian concoctions are all sold for Crescents and when all is said and done I can buy some extra gear and salvage it. It takes longer than running t1/t2 dungeons but when your character is a new 60 you'll be hard pressed to find anyone wanting to run dungeons with you, one look at your gear score and later.
I also do the Foundry. I do think 4 is a tad extreme, but when you wait for Neverember to give you the same quest that Rhix does, you sign up for both and clear 12,000AD. I do skirmishes when the event is active and can score some cool gear and almost always grab 1,000AD in the chest, and another from Rhix.

Yes leadership on multiple characters is good, soloing epic dungeons is good if you are capable enough to do so. Since the purple horse is on sale this week I decided to farm the AH. I buy level 60 rare gear for 85 AD or less then sell for gold, I then buy companions and post on the AH. I make between 4-500AD profit per companion. It is a bit time consuming and I don't think I'll do it anymore once I have the horse.

Convert your 500+ seals into armor pieces, then go salvage them for rough AD, that should give you about 50000 rAD right there... convert to AD in 2/3 days...
At least that's a start...

Nothing beats getting a T2 boss drop and reselling it tho.

How I make my AD: Split run

Don't waste time on a greed run, its 20% chance on a drop....doing 5-6 runs and you get still nothing (which happens...)...while you could have made 300-600k AD if you did it by split. Yes you lose the AH cut but so what it is always better then having 80% chance on 0 AD and someone else gets the item.

Do it like this, and you will gain a lot, really a lot.....AD. I don't like to gamble that the drop will be mine, I want to make sure I get AD every run I do.

U need guild runs to do split though and sometimes members might be busy/offline

What are split runs? Loot sharing or something ?

a split run is something done within a guild or between friends where the drop item is sold and the proceeds divided among the party.

Yea what mr.mod said, so if u get a 1mil item, each person gets 200k instead of rolling a 3 vs ur lucky friends 100 and him getting everything

My only advice is don't turn the game into a job. Having a <font color="orange">HAMSTER</font> ton of characters just to run daily pvp with all of them isn't worth it in my book. If the game isn't fun, you're doing something wrong.

drakcert · December 2013

I have to do the daily sharandar morning campaign dead ring, daily pvp and epic dungeon. Total are more 3 hours, only one character, how long should I invest? For a pheusodragon.
