I went through the 3 man TOS today and only received 1300 today. I was curious if this was happening to anyone else? I still have to do a second today, I'll see what I get on that run.
sub 70 the rewards are far less than 3k. if they drop at all ( about 30% of the time i dont see the ad to pick up)
at 70 in epic dungeons i've gotten 3k+ as long as everyone remembers to pick it up.

I usually get well over 3k in nToS for my first two runs.
You have to make sure that everyone runs over the loot pile under the boss.
There is a suggestion that you are currently getting (in this case) 1/3 of everyone's reward -- so if someone has run 2+ dungeons already and down to just bonus AD while you and the other player are on their first, you get 1000 + 1000 + 90 = 2090 AD, rather than the 3000+ AD you should be getting.
I know the word has been passed on to the devs and they are investigating the inconsistent rewards.

I know I have gotten 3K before, since the change. If they didn't offer the same reward, it would be a further nerf on the daily dungeon. I do think it is odd that they have people "run over" the corpse instead of automatically pocketing the money, like they do for PVP. Also odd that your cash is tied to others' in such a way. Every time I go through, everyone seems to hang at the end, to see what the others are doing. Very suspicious on multiple levels.
Many time I have not gotten 3K for the run. It also looks like you don't get the vip bonus anymore either.
It's pretty hard to tell if you got a VIP bonus when the amount you claim is unstable, isn't it! They've got to do something with this--this isn't paying what we used to get, nor even what they said it would. And, well, VIP on top!!
I did what I thought was a second run (I may have run a second already and forgot) and got less than 1K.
I've gotten a whopping 270 k for a 3rd skimirsh. Then the quest for 3 appears only some of the time from Rhix. Same for the dungeon quest. So much for VIP bonus. So are the people that paid for VIP going to get some kind of refund or extra AD that we paid for?

I reviewed Scott's original memo and it didn't say anything about what level the dungeon had to be. So there's that. Then it's pretty hard to say you got VIP rewards when the reward is less than expected to begin with.
I'd say that the "new economy" isn't working as intended. Certainly not as, uh, promised.

i should have been more specific. i meant player level. i dont often run normal dungeons with my 70's. its not like its significantly faster than a high powered elol group.

My character is 70, he just got shafted, that's all. Perhaps someone didn't pick up the loot? What a stupid game mechanic. PVP automatically deposits the ad in your pocket.
I don't typically run T1/T2 dungeons because I see a lot of wipes and lags== that takes up time I could be doing something else. Meanwhile they also cut the rewards for PVP in half. Not very happy with the "new economy".
If some of the other players you are with don't pick up their AD, you miss out on some. This is already being addressed in this week's patch. (Notes on Preview Forum)
Basically, think of it like gold when you are in a party - someone runs over a pile of gold, it's split between everyone. What it is doing now is taking your total amount, and splitting between the number of players - if 2/5 players pick up the AD, then you'll only get 2/5ths of the AD you should get.

Yeah I figured that out during my last eLol run. Most PuG players are eager to leave and sometimes too eager to loot.

Thanks. I saw that preview patch note last night. Glad to see its being addressed. Odd mechanic they decided to use, glad it's going away.
