Blizzard has given us more information on the Saviors of Uldum solo content, the Tombs of Terror!
- A pre-order is available which gives you a the League of Explorers card back and a random Uldum legendary.
- The first chapter is free with additional chapters coming in at 700 Gold or $7 USD each.
- Buy everything for $15 (after launch) without the pre-order goodies.
- There are four chapters, each with a "Plague Lord" final boss. Those bosses have large amounts of Health.
- Defeating all the chapters unlocks "the finale". No word on what that is... yet.
- Each of the explorers are dual-class heroes, building decks with cards from both classes.
- You'll be able to unlock hero-specific signature treasures as you play through the adventure.
- A favourite from Dalaran Heist, the tavern for deck modifications has returned.
- Twists have also returned.
- You'll earn card packs by completing wings in the adventure (15 packs) and a card back & Golden Classic Pack at the end of Normal.
- Earn a special card back for completing the adventure on Heroic!
- The solo content releases on September 17.
Tombs of Terror Chapter Release Schedule & Pricing
Here is the release schedule for Tombs of Terror.
- September 17 - Chapter 1 & 2
- September 24 - Chapter 3
- October 1 - Chapter 4 & Finale
The pre-order is available for $20 USD which includes all the content. It will be available for less (not sure how much) after it has been released but it will not include the card back or random Uldum legendary card.
Individual chapters can be purchased for 700 gold each or $7 USD. Buying the whole adventure after the pre-order period is only $15 but you don't get the pre-order extras.
Explorer Class Combinations
Each explorer is dual-classed for the Tombs of Terror which means you get to build a deck with both of their classes!
- Reno Jackson - Mage & Rogue
- Elise Starseeker - Druid & Priest
- Brann Bronzebeard - Hunter & Warrior
- Sir Finley - Paladin & Shaman
Plague Lords
Plague Lords are the final bosses of each chapter.
- A high health pool makes them a larger than normal challenge. (Example in video was 300)
- If you aren't able to kill a plague lord, their health will stay the same the next time you fight them, allowing progression over multiple runs.
- The Plague Lords are made up of the Plagues of Uldum. A boss made out of murlocs!
Signature Treasures
In addition to choosing a starting deck and hero power, you'll also get to choose a Signature Treasure.
- Each explorer has their own signature treasure.
- The treasures are unlocked by playing the new content.
- It looks like every hero has 6 signature treasures, with Reno starting off with Reno's Lucky Hat.

Comments
Just like last time, will only be playing the first wing myself. Kinda over bought SoU packs with gold and need to start saving for next expac. Besides the SoU packs from this come a bit late.
But a lot of people get so much fun from these, hope you guys have a blast :)
No golden legendary like Zayle, Shadow Cloak this time as a reward?
So this means, compared with previous adventure, we get for the same price, 700 g x 4 wings = 2,800 g, we get 15 packs + 1 golden pack?
Does not seem the best deal to me...
You're paying for the adventure content, not just the rewards. If you just want packs then just buy packs.
I used zayle a total of 0 times since I got him.
I really do hope we get something like that too, maybe Blizzard haven't spoiled it yet. We do get 2 card backs for completing on both Normal and Heroic, though. The information is in the battlenet shop page.
Reno is half rogue?
What am I saying of course he is. Nothing says "stealthy" like a guy yelling MAGIC every time he attacks!
so 1 legendary and 1 card back are worth 5 euro? I will buy it but after release I don't think a legendary is worth 5 euro and I got 0 respect for card backs. The adventure does seem to be worth it
By the looks of the Plague lords, the true final boss must be a magma rager!
i got sir finley from the pre-purchase
Warlock is too OP to get dual classed.
Plus, that's the class of the League of EVIL's leader (and their arch-nemesis) Rafaam.
So wait a minute... Do you have to pay for the finale as well? Because from the pre-order price, it sounds like this adventure has 1 less wing
Agreed. I'll just save my money and buy with gold I've been saving up.
Just for info: You get the legendary in the moment you buy tnhe pack,you don't have to wait until release!
Woo got Armagedillo! The last legendary from the set I was interested in. Guess it's time to recraft [Hearthstone Card (Dr Boom, Mad Genius) Not Found]
I didn't get mine, I only got the card back
Restart the game and recheck your collection, it will be there.
I've done that and gone through all my uldum legendaries
And is it there or not? It should be, but if it really isn't you should write a ticket.
Nothing that I didn't have before
