Returning player has ?re AD.

So I've been away since last summer I remeber before I left they changed the bonus AD from getting extra from the fist 2 runs of any dungeon skirmish and pvp and removed AD from envoking and made it so envoking just before any activity that awards AD will give a slight bonus. Is this correct ? If so is this still how AD is earned? Or is there something else because I envoked b4 a dungeon and only got a little over 2k last night and that seemed low. Anyway sorry for wall o' text and thanks in advance for any help .

jost for example purposes.... lets assume every invoking gives you 1000 AD on 50% ... so you finish all ur daily invokes and u have 6000 AD at 50% ... that means any activity will give u a total off 50% of its current AD bonus... for example if dungeons gives u 5000 it will give u +50% for a total of 7500 .... then after that 50% bonus to the activity the remaining AD Bonus will be 6000-1500 = 4500 ... and so on....

Yeah the change made it such that invoking AD accumulates in a "bonus pool". Whenever you earn Raw AD from any other source (dungeons / skrims, salvage, etc.) you get to draw from this bonus pool at a set rate.

This bonus pool carries over day to day, so if you don't drain it completely, any bonus remains until you use it. There is a cap to this bonus pool (I think 100,000) but it's pretty high, so you likely won't reach it playing casually.

You can check your bonus pool by hovering over the little AD icon by your character portrait.

Basically pray each day and run your dailies wait until you are near max from praying and than run a bunch of dungeons. Say you can't play much on the weekdays. So pray and do your dailies. By the weekend you spam dungeons and maximize your rough AD.

Hey also, I forgot how many weekly quests are there that award AD? And who are the quest givers?

Six, each awards 4500 and can be increased from the invoke bonus pool. Harper Boward in PE gives 1Tod weekly Portal to Tuern for AD and one defeating dragons that doesn't. The others are all from the main questgiver in the campaign zone, so Sharandar, Dread Ring, Well of Dragons, IcewindDale (from faction), and Underdark/Manitol-Derith.

You don't need to do all your invokes first, any bonus you don't use on day one will be available on day two or three. Looking at it from a weekly view, the order in which you invoke & run tasks makes no difference to your overall gain - especially as any unused bonus gets used up either during the weekly AD tasks, salvaging etc.
