Daily Completionist / 10 Point Achievement
You reached the AP cap for dailies/monthlies.
If your Daily total and Monthly total AP amount adds up to 15,000, then you have reached the cap and can no longer gain Achievement Points from regular Dailies.
just adding this:
If you have not reached flat 15k via the total sum of daily + monthly points, you won’t get the leftover points, because the game only awards 10AP or nothing at all.
This means you could be left with 14991 to 14999 points for the total.

That’s …awkward. Sigh.
I really wish ANet would finally:
- Create notifications, one to warn people about to hit the cap and the other to let people know they are at the cap.
- Change the display so that it adds up the monthly and daily and compares it to the cap.
- And now, aware people the last 1-9 points — it’s not much, but, you know, feelz badd mahn.
tl;dr ANet instituted the cap; the least they could do is incorporate it into the UI.

Personally I don’t understand the need for a cap. People that have been loyally playing the game for nearly 4 years should get the same rewards that a new player gets. After all they have achievement chests already setup for thousands of points higher then the highest player in the game has reached, so why not let everyone work towards them instead on penalizing loyal daily players.

New players aren’t getting anything we (veteran players) didn’t get. We got 15k AP from dailies/monthlies. New players are getting 15k AP for dailies. It’s equal. We all still get the gold, mats, and exp items from doing the dailies, too.
We are both doing daily’s today, a new player gets 2g and 10 ap, a capped vet player gets 2g for doing the same work. How is that the same?

Again, we got 15k AP for dailies/monthlies. New players are getting 15k for dailies. It’s equal.
As a side note, veteran players were able to get many, many AP that new players won’t ever be able to get because they weren’t playing during past events. So, as far as gaining AP goes, I think veterans come out better than new players (for now).

Considering all the lamentations on the forums when there was no cap, I think ArenaNet probably listened to the playerbase on that one.

Yes but veteran players are ahead because of the time spent since launch, why should someone who started the game 3 years later ( or a causal 5 hours a week player ) beable to catch us, we have funded and supported Anet for 3 years, I HATE that because I have played since Launch and that someone later came along and cried because they couldn’t catch up that ANET deemed the best idea to restrict veteran players,
I am approx. 150 days out from that cap, and when I hit it, I wont log in again until anet revise it, if Anet wish to continue to restrict veteran players then so be, I will no longer be that player.
The fact that this is being brought up more and more and more as ppl hit this cap, and ANET still do not respond to it, sadly this looks like it will need to be another reddit campaign to get Anet to respond.
This would be like me asking for PvP rewards/achievements to be removed, as I don’t play PvP so why should they get something that I don’t.

It wasn’t put in effect so ‘new’ players could catch up, as no matter how long they play, they can never catch up to launch/first year Veterans. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a thread from some ‘new’ player demanding the Daily AP be capped so they could ‘catch up’. It was because some ‘veteran’ players were lamenting the amount of time it took to complete all the Dailies, so they could stay ahead on the Leaderboard. Which is also the reason for the 3 Daily/10 AP per day change.
Best of luck on your game adventuring.
