Can someone list all ways to get astral diamonds?

Returning player...

I keep reading that dungeons don't give BoE items anymore so I'm curious, how does a free player make astral diamonds these days? I'm 500 zen away from my mount and am unsure what to do.

    rough ad from salvaging and dailies
    boss drops and sell to ah
    crafting (epic shirts and pants mostly) and sell to ah
    farming flowers in midsummer fest for rewards and sell them to ah
    prostitution which appears to be what cryptic thinks of its players

    Praying (control+I at any campfire) provides 2k/day. First time is 1k, second is 665 and third is 335.

    Rhinx' and King Neverember's provide AD for their daily quests.

    Doing skirmishes during the skirmish event provides AD.

    Aren't boss drops useless now, though?

    Last time I played there were so many of each, they must not sell at all now?

    Kind of the opposite now, due to all the BOP on DD chests. Many of the boss drops that aren't bound now sell for a pretty penny. Particularly T2 rings and necks.

    You can now salvage any purple piece of gear for rough ADs - there's a guy in the market area of PE, (look for the green glow w/ the anvils).

    Leadership tasks can provide ADs.

    Invoking for the 1st 3 times per day.

    The Summer festival currently going on can produce fashion items that people are selling for ADs, (hold them till after the event and prices will go up). There's also a bind on equip companion you can get from the event, (by amassing 4200 petals).

    Lord Neverember, (at level 60), and Rhix have dailies that give ADs.

    There's the skirmish event.

    If you can get Alchemy up to level 7, you can produce the class dye kits, which sell for a decent amount on the AH.

    Any of the shirt & pants from the professions sell for a hundred ADs or so.

    It's a gamble, but you can buy the profession packs or enchanted keys and sell what you get on the AH, (risky, so weigh the risk vs rewards here).
