The sheer amount of currencies and what you can buy with each one is ridiculous.

My TR is in the mid-30's and I have yet to really spend any of my 5 in-game currencies on anything. I have purchased zen for the purpose of enchanted keys, but to be honest, based on the rewards I have received from those boxes....I may stop even caring.

Seals up to this point have been pointless because I have far outleveled anything that could have been useful by the time I have accrued enough of the Seals in my level range. If you had one Seal type that you accrued over your career and then adjusted the price curve for all items...it would make more sense.

Ardent and Celestial loot is lacking and a HUGE disparity in price between anything that could be perceived as useful.

Those T-bars you get with nightmare lockboxes...the price scaling for items is insane.

Astrals.....the only thing of any immediate value for me is Identify scrolls. There is not really anything I want (or need) for me to bother.

Gold....i have yet to find a purpose for gold.

Zen...the only currency that has true value and honestly the prices for items (I know others have complained abuot this) are too steep to make the purchases worthwhile for most items.

All I really want to convey to the Devs is that the amount of currency is a bit overwhelming and if you intend on keeping this insane system you really need to step back and evaluate the price scaling and the general lack of diversity of interesting and useful items in all of the shops.

    These two posts may as well end this thread. It's all been said before and you're both right. For the record, I've had the same experience as the original poster, but I use gold sometimes and I'm level 44 at the moment. Otherwise, I have yet to open a box and I've used seals occasionally, but they are hard to come by so not much can be done with them. By the time I've had enough, I've outleveled the gear you can buy with them.
