AE Tickets over inventory cap badges

Are these badges bugged, or do I not understand how they work?

My assumption was that once one of your toons earned 9,999 tickets without cashing any in, you'd start earning these badges account-wide as that toon continued earning tickets, but not receiving them. Now I'm wondering if the 9,999 requirement isn't account-wide, because I started earning these badges last night on a toon that has only ever earned about 1,800 tickets.

I definitely want these badges, but I want to make sure I'm getting them in the way intended.

There is a 'per mission' cap involved as well.

The highest is 1500, but smaller maps have a significantly lower cap.

I can assure you the 9999 limit is character based.

So I should report these as bugged since none of my characters has earned 9999 tickets individually?

(I don't know if all my toons combined have even earned 9999 tickets because I don't play AE that much.)

No you are just obviously hitting the 'per mission cap' and losing tickets which should award progress

Its working as designed.

Oh, OK. Thanks.

That makes getting those badges a LOT easier. A fair (?) trade-off though since it also makes getting 9999 tickets harder.

Not sure if this is what's happening, but if you have 9999 unclaimed tickets, further tickets you'd earn from ratings I think count towards the over the cap badges as well.


Issue 16 made me feel like this.

Nope. My one arc has yet to be rated or played.

Having ONE character at 9999 tickets, and then earning more tickets on that character will flag those badges to award to ALL characters on that account.

Like you said, those badges are account-wide. If you had to have 9999 on every character, that wouldn't be account-wide and would defeat the purpose of saying it.
