Yesterday, the Neverwinter team announced to give a 100,000 rough neverwinter astral diamonds for per xbox account that has run character at least once before November 23, 2015. Though this amount is not big enough to change the economy, it is welcomed and appreciated as the first step of the greater AD changes.
Neverwinter AD gift begins the first step to balance xbox economy
As many players know, the problem in neverwinter xbox one is that there are not enough astral diamonds to support players' need of materials to gear up. Thus, to begin the revolution, Cryptic Studios firstly gave players some additional AD by offering 100,000 rough Astral Diamonds for per account that has a character run at least once before November 23, 2015. This offer is not affected by the double Astral Diamonds event, so you can now choose a character and log-in to retrieve the AD gift.
I am sure that many players would say that a bit underwhelmed that never help to make a big change in economy system. But for me, it is welcomed and appreciated, this, along with 2x seals last weekend, and 2x AD this week is really going to improve things for the average player, and definitely goes a long way toward showing that the team is working on balancing the economy. Anyway, it is "only a part of the greater AD changes" and the team also promised to introduce a more healthy flow in the economy after seeing the affects of this change in Xbox economy and monitoring its place in-game.
The offer of Neverwinter AD is not likely to change ZAX a lot
We can see that players, especially newcomers would benefit a lot from that giving. With the 100k neverwinter xbox astral diamonds gift, some people might guess that if the ZAX will be raised. As far as safewow is concerned, it is barely influential and not for long as we don't have enough ad in the economy for a sustained high ad exchange. Not to mention there's also a 15% off of Zen sale which would mean more zen can be bought. While the 100K AD might raise the rate, the zen sale might lower it. So it is obviously that there won't be, at least in short period, high ZAX in Neverwinter Xbox that offering a chance for more players to buy Zen and convert to AD.
In a word, Neverwinter Xbox economy system will be gradually balanced and this first effort is appreciated. Still, there is not enough AD earning in game. Thus, you would still grind to farm some astral diamonds xob, or you can also buy neverwinter xbox astral diamonds on Safewow to afford your need of gear and other materials.
