RatHat posted:Have they said if you can do the Darkmoon faire achievements(the ones that reward Exp) in singleplayer? If you can do them with the Innkeeper battles I might actually do most of them. Nope, doesn’t seem like it. That said most of them only require 1 card so it wouldn’t be too hard to slot it into a decent deck and eventually get the achievement that way.

I'm too lazy to set up a fireside thing so I'm just going to wait until the actual release. But for my final craft of this cycle I crafted my 2nd Embiggen to dehumanize myself and face to Wild Aggro Druid. What a stupid deck

The 5 golden packs from the deluxe pre-order bundle was kind enough to give me 2 legendaries. Here's my haul from ~75 packs Golden Zai Golden Shek'zara Eys'or (freebie) Nameless One Tenwu Inara Tickatus N'Zoth Probably my best haul ever. Praise the old gods!

Anyone else been experiencing connection issues with BG? Twice now the game froze at the tavern and when I try to restart the game I just reconnect back into the stuck tavern screen.

how did my duels rogue opponent have an arcanite reaper? wasnt Created By anything, wasnt stolen from me, did not have the treasure that replaces weapons. It was just... in his deck. Can you be offered off-class cards? Is there a treasure that adds random weapons to your deck? peer fucked around with this message at 10:13 on Nov 14, 2020 |

have you seen a board more beautiful, more sublime I somehow wasn't offered a single Strongarm over 4 turns. I won anyway, so I'm not that salty, but still.

Hit the 9k milestone with a bang, just in time before the new expac I don't have the BG pass so I wonder how much that would make an impact. I don't often feel like I'm screwed over by the limited choices though, so I guess that says good things about the hero balance?

I cracked 5 legendaries in the first 18 packs last night, and then only 2 more in the rest of my preorder. Unfortunately I got all the rogue legends and rogue is one of my disenchant classes. Fortunately I got all the warrior legendaries though and that’s super exciting. Looking forward to playing curator/ringmaster menagerie in wild though.

One issue with the new ranked system I failed to foresee is that the bigger weekly requirements, like playing more turns, spending lots of mana, destroying more minions, etc. incentivize long, grinding control decks in Wild. On a small sample size, 2 of 3 opponents this morning were Highlander Priest. I get the feeling this deck was partially held in check by the fact that it was painful to play with outside of an occasional desire to machine gun, but now that they can make huge progress towards mega quests, it's going to see more play, along with similar long-time control decks.

If that happens I'll have the easiest ride to legend ever with mecha'thun rogue - but anecdotally, I'm still seeing the same forever-aggro right now. Days when you get nothing but priest and control warlock are my happiest days. (As an aside, I finally managed to get the perfect draw and hit the turn 5 OTK. It was magnificent and the rage-add from the player afterwards was .)

With polkelt, wild reno priest games are over by like turn 10, 11 tops. Not really grindy. My average game time playing it is like 6-7 minutes.

No matter what I play or do my achievements have stopped progressing. I've been at 29/30 Demons played since a few dozen Demons ago and I tried Secrets to double check and it just stays at 8/15. Looks like i'm done for the day or until they fix this. Meh.

The 2000 damage is easy enough to mostly afk through and guaranteed to be done in a week of play. I was put off at first too, because I don't play BGs but I've gotten it done twice just playing poorly.

New Yogg doesn't seem as consistently good as old Yogg. Lot more ways for RNG to screw you over. Also he's a LOT better when you're behind on the board.

Having Darkmoon cards in the pot for duels really spices things up. Having Solar Eclipse ( spells doublecast in the turn) + Swipe + Hero Power is 12 damage on 8 mana.

The disparity in treasure strength in Duels is kinda messed up. In the future they should really moderate the ability to string together multiple top-tier treasures, and compensate weaker ones. I somehow lucked into 8 wins with a deathrattle Hunter with Deck of Wonders, draw one extra card, 2 mana assassinate and killer crab. Warlock opponent had double battlecry and rush minions, started off with expired merchant discarding his 6 mana heal demon treasure. By Turn 7 or so his hand was like 5 20/20+ lifesteal rush lmao. Stuff like rush, double time, double deathrattle should be paired with the trash tier stuff imo. They could implement a treasure 'rarity' system or something along those lines too.

Oh look at Mr. “I made it to turn 7” over here. My last run ended when my opponent, on turn 1, put out out approximately 5 gibberers and buffed them to 3/3 and then they somehow also buffed every time a minion died? I think I made it to turn 3.

Not the most dramatic one but from the swamp + band of bees, you might as well give up on any board based decks.

Duels is supposed to be stupid garbage. Can't complain when it's working as intended. It's not going to be balanced or competitive. The paid heroic is just a means to lose gold.

So the Darkmoon Faire quests(that award Exp) CAN be done in Casual Duels....But Casual is full of people who reset until they get the perfect treasure for their deck, so it might be easier to win in ranked.

I mean, it probably wasn't pitched as stupid garbage. It will never be fully 'balanced' but that's not a reason for there not to be some attempts at balancing. It's still super early days for the format, and I think they probably will tune treasures up and down in power level to make them more even. Stuff like 3 mana summon a random 3 drop and shuffle into your deck is so stupid, not only because it's flat out bad, but because it's nigh on impossible not to get a 30+ card deck and you're never going to draw the upgraded version. High wins will always have the nutso combos, sure, but they can definitely adjust the ease at which things are possible and make the average strength of treasure offerings more consistent.

Dungeon runs were always stupid garbage - that was the appeal. Building stupid broken decks to wreck overpowered bosses, etc. They just tones some rhings down and made it pvp, but the concept remains the same. You build a broken deck as best as possible but you more likely (as in dungeon run) don't get the good stuff. High highs and low lows for enjoyment. It was better against AI as getting your extreme broken stuff didn't come at the expense of someone else's fun. Tangent to that- best way to afk grind exp is in BG as your absence doesn't negatively effect others.
