Title says it all, this needs to happen, since this waukeen event has started i have made over 1.5mil rough AD out of chests, your cap of 24k a day is WAY to low to be awarding that much rough without raising the cap. Do something about this! It needs to get raised, we will be refining for MONTHS to come

    If they raise the cap, you could farm for a lot more AD. I think their intention is that you start to feel frustrated and impatient with small amounts of daily AD, and open your wallet and buy Zen then trade. It's a cheap tactic, but probably effective.

    So I doubt the AD refining cap will be modified.

    Im not saying that the cap needs raised to like 1mil a day, but at least 75-100k

    I wish I had your problem. Having 1.5 mil to refine would mean I wouldn't have to mess with leadership tasks or daily quests for a while. That would be awesome. It is actually the only reason I keep opening the purses since almost everything is BOP and I can't do anything with the extras. I am not even close to RAD you have though.

    You could just sell your purses instead of opening them and then you get 1500 AD (or more) each. You might even make out better in the end because all the rest of the drops are probably no use to you anymore. If 1 out of 6 purses give rough AD (I have no idea what the ratio is) you would make more money selling your purses.

    Why are you worrying about the daily limit? You going on vacation from the game for half a year or something?

    I believe this is also done so the large influx in AD doesn't harm the game's economy... Just think of it this way you don't have to do you dailies for the next little while if you don't want to. :)

    A good number of people don't even hit the 24k refine limit. And you can't balance a system, especially one meant to throttle the amount of new currency entering an economy, around the top 10% of users.

    Agreed. Before this I could never get close to 24k rough AD, to even prep for it (Multiple chars and level 20 leadership) would take a really really long time. Even though I don't really have much data, I bet there's a bunch of casual players out there who's in a similiar situation as I am.

    Maybe they could temporarily raise it for the event, but i'm not seeing it being permanently raised.

    The funny part in all this is, the limit is already fairly high. Both STO and CO's have a refine cap of only 8000. After spending much time over there. I find the 24k limit fairly generous.

    Plus, the chests are selling for a fair amount on the AH. So, rather than working towards gaining more RAD, you could just sell them. The RAD is just about the most worth-while thing coming out of the chests imo, aside from the rare profession resources (yay dragon eggs!). Still, I would have easily traded in my win of the golden pantaloons for the 256k RAD. Those things are just... hard on the eyes XD.

    Oh, and a cloak that says its salvagable, but isn't (since its a level 1 purple). Yaaaaay, false tooltips, and that you can't really do much with transmuting wise. Got two of those >_>. But! I'm still having fun and gaining plenty of radiant, azure, dark, etc. enchantments.
    contents to be decided

    It seems pretty obvious that the limit is a "valve" which allows Cryptic to control the rate of accumulation of riches and levelling, I doubt they'll change it unless they feel their data-mining tells them they ought to, in the context of their goals for the game. As someone else said, 24k is a lot compared to the funny money limits in the other Cryptic games (but then again, that doesn't necessarily mean anything, given that the relative values of things might be different too). Anyway, as a casual gamer, I find that for my needs, 24k AD a day is just fine, although I do sympathize somewhat with Achievers who want more, more, more :)
