We will also be running additional double AD events in the near future to make sure that the supply of Astral Diamonds in the economy doesn’t change too dramatically. The first double AD event will begin on July 31st.????

So where is this have devs forgot us ??

    Just a precaution. There is no double ad event before. They may too busy to implement it or test it properly.

    They should make up for their failure to implement double AD on time by also throwing in a double RP event, because why not and also I have a lot of enchants I'd like to shove into my artifacts >>

    This event is already to make up for their failure with removing leadership from gateway, if they had to make up for failed attempts at making up for stuff it would never end

    It should be on, just not showing that it's on. I think.

    99 lines of code on the wall, 99 lines of code, add one line, compile it again....... 113 lines on code on the wall

    If you want to find the official reason, speculated reasons, conspiracy reasons, unreasonable reasons, not a reason reasons, ....., search the forums. There are many.

    The official thread on the subject goes on about keeping things in perspective.

    Most recent post was mine, talking about the good ol' days. I think, someone might have posted in it by now.

    It's on but not actually on. Invokes are saying they're giving double AD but not actually giving double AD.

    quick everyone get to the 25k cap 2x as fast! :)
  • theycallmetomutheycallmetomu Member, NW M9 Playtest Posts: 1,861 Arc User
    Well think about it. It's to compensate us for the fact that some people haven't been doing leadership lately because it was disabled from the Gateway. That means for those days they weren't able to reach the AD cap.

    For the rest of us, we don't DESERVE a reward!
  • karakla1karakla1 Member Posts: 1,355 Arc User
    In fact it is a nice event.
    As example: You run the dungeon elol. There drop blue gear from bosses which can be salvaged and is only accountbound. That means you can easily give it some of your twinks, which salvage it and get the double amount of it (Rings/Neklaces/Belts 6K, Shoes/Arms 8K, Chest 10K).
    While you running during the DD time you get double RAD from chest means 6K RAD, the key costs 5K AD, so you get your cost back + other stuff that can drop like overload enchantments which you can sell. So you can constantly run elol for some nice RAD drops and get your Alts to the cap and give them a backlog.

    That is something you can't accomplish easily as a player without the event. Because the costs for constant key investment are too high. During this event they are simply not there. So yeah, nice Event and i like that we got double XP so i can get some of my alts finally to 60 and get some new artifacts for more stat variety.

    Tipp: If you doesn't want to spend a key, do Kessells Retreat, the chest is always open and grants one belt or necklace for 6K AD. And with a proper group Kessell can be finished within 10-15 minutes.

    Do you get double AD from completing the leadership task on the gateway? I know you cant start it, but if you complete the tasks there do you get it?

    No event for me, I was without 2x AD at the 24k cap every day. Now I do still refine 24k AD per day. Thanks for 2x exp though.

    ...should you ever go on vacation for a week, you'll be able to keep those 24k/day up by just logging in and refining.

    so in the hrs since double ad started I generated 200k raw ad with just 1 character cashed in all my glory and bought the pvp rings for salvage for 6k ad each. Salvaged all the other rings and belts from kessels ran all the leadership on 8 spots for max profit around 20k ad ran 6 pvp for the 1 win and 4 pvp for daily ad got the 16kad ran DR skirmishes 3 times for 12k and tos of spiders for the 12k started @ 4am did all again so now have 200k raw ad and can take a vacation from neverwinter because cant use due to refine cap is 24k since I play Dailey I hit my 24k easily with just my 1 toon so this ad boost doesnot really help should cap out around 400k ad this week end then by strong hold should have enough in reserve to spend a whole week straight just on That

    Maybe they need to make a profession called Minting or something, and it allows you to refine some rough AD faster or beyond the cap ;) If you are willing to spend a slot on it, maybe you can refine 1k more AD per day, but the task takes 24 hours. Maybe

    I don't think they will provide anything that would help increasing AD in long term and their "reason" is "this will help bot".

    It's on but not actually on. Invokes are saying they're giving double AD but not actually giving double AD.

    It is not just it does not give double AD. The dialog box says 1000 AD. It should have 2000 AD shown in "Inventory Notify" in the log. In your case, "Inventory Notify" only showed 350 AD.

    You are in level 20. I wonder if the invocation reward is "discounted" for lower level.
    i.e. although it posts 500 AD (when 1x) in the dialog box, you only get 175 AD.

    One way or the other, this looks like a bug. Either a display bug or a reward bug. Most likely a display bug in the dialog box as it does not post the proper scaled amount.
