Mini update: I reached level 150 and Legend in Wild along the way. Now waiting for the new patch with bugfixes and the upcoming mini-set, hopefully arriving soon™
I am nearly at Level 94. I've been doing dailies (in mercs and in the main game), and that's about it over the Holiday season. Mostly playing Standard - (I need to get to Diamond 5 still) and then I will flip over to Wild for my climb to D5.

Dont expect the miniset to arrive anytime soon. we will probably get a BG patch in a week or 2 and if it hold up the miniset mid or late february.
I'm at Level 75. Slow progress is slow, but it's just hard to play in this Roguestone meta right now. Poison Rogues are simply unbeatable. NOTHING beats this deck. I just toiled away for my golden Shaman portrait, then I was done with Standard until the nerfs come. A once promising and diverse meta ruined by a supposedly meme card in Maestra, good job Blizz....
I'm not doing that many achievements this expansion, which contributes to my slow progress. I dunno, the achievements this time around feel like such a chore to do. I usually complete about 60%, but right now I haven't even hit 30% yet.
Sometime last week I finished the Track (Level 100) and took the Illidan portrait. I am at Level 117 now, and also looking forward to next week's mini-release.
I´ve hit lvl 100 few days ago and chose Arcanist Jaina as my 5th RT portrait (the 4th was the one from Battlefield Master achievement for 7200 Honor). Now I´m at lvl 110 and still have todays three weeklies and one daily quests up. My XP achievement count is at 75% done, and I´m taking a break from doing them until the new ones from the miniset arrive (still no luck with the Snowball Fight! one, I´m stuck forever at 8/10).

@Alleria, you probably also "hate" the fact that your gold stash ends with "5", I reckon? 😁
And yeah, it really buggs me that I had 4005 gold for some time now, but I also know I´m "lucky" enough that I won´t get the 5 from the paid game modes, only in the case when I´m back to zero :D Right now I´m waiting for the next "free" Arena ticket to try my luck again. Good thing is I don´t care slightlest for my dust count, I never dust cards unless there is some nerf going on and almost never craft any, until there is one I really love/want, and won´t open it from packs.
P.S. sorry for replying you in this thread instead, but I don´t want to convert Golden Hero Portrait - Completionist & Grind thread to my own chatting place, while ignoring the original topic :D
I reached level 222. The next big patch with all those bugfixes is almost upon us, I have really high expectations for it.
@Alleria, no problem. When I posted my earlier message over there, I wondered if it would be too off-topic. I use the same dust strategy as you do by the way.
I am at level 253. Currently trying to complete the Gesundheit XP achievement. Afterwards, I will go back to the waiting room for the You are not worthy XP achievement to get fixed and the next mini-set to arrive.
What are your thoughts and experiences of the latest patch? And what is your current progress on the rewards track?

Finished all weeklies and jumped from lvl 99 to 107 yesterday. Also reached Diamond 5, a new personal best, with just a few hours left of the season. Now to decide what portrait to choose from the rewards...
So after two weeks I´ve gained 30 lvls, jumping to lvl 140. My XP achievement count is at 80% done. I´ve also gained golden warrior portrait (again, lol*), slowly climbing up the ladder, currently Plat 10 (my highest yet in a very looong time), no bonus stars left. Hoarded 6005 gold, ready for the mini-set :)
How are ya´ll doing?
*I´ve hit 500 wins three weeks ago, but "thanks" to Duels Diablo wins not counting, Blizz took my portrait away after the the recent patch.
126 now with Tavern pass. Slower than I would have liked but a lot of games I play all updating soonish has me pulled in many directions. The mini set should correct that a bit though! Onyxia's Layer was not my first raid oddly. The guild I was in was more advanced but had attendance issues so I got to tag along. Simple single dragon encounter but felt epic and I got loot from it mostly because I didn't pull any whelps on my first try! Still a great memory with many friends and not many whelps! :D
I have 1 weekly quest left. After completing it, I will reach level 313 (mostly by farming Mercenaries, no bots involved).
After tomorrow's patch we can finally complete all the Alterac XP achievements. Timingwise it is nice because it coincides with the introduction of the new Onyxia Lair's mini-set XP achievements. Hopefully no new bugs will surface related to these achievements otherwise I will riot (i.e. complain) again.
Almost time to collect some more free XP, so have lots of fun everyone! 😄
I'm at Level 114, and once I finish my weeklies I should reach 120. I've been playing a lot recently; I think I climbed 25 levels in two weeks.
Lately I've been playing a lot of Mercenaries, trying to max out my Mercs. I can't say I've been enjoying it as much, I just feel like grinding my Mercs to level 30. I didn't buy the mini-set again this time, though I did craft Kazakusan. While he's a blast to play (especially in a Control Warrior list), some games feel polarizing in that it comes down to who draws Kazakusan first. The card has also ushered in a bunch of hyper-aggro decks, which is something I never welcome.
I completed the Chi-Ji limited time event and only have 7 of the latest introduced mercenaries left to be fully maxed out.
I bought the Onyxia's Lair mini-set with gold and played a bunch of Kazakusan Druid in ranked Standard, but I cannot say I enjoyed this latest meta at all. At diamond level, I only encounter mirror matches or opponents with tech cards like Irondeep Trogg and Cult Neophyte.
As for the new XP achievements, since they are mostly really grindy this time around, I have yet to start grinding those out. The Demon Hunter and Rogue ones are not even in the game yet (sigh). I do wonder what the new '???' is all about though. What kind of riddled madness did Celestalon come up with this time?

Dude how often do you play? Level 357 is nuts lol.
I'm currently at Level 125, with 7000 gold. I think I have a month left to reach that level 200 goal I've been aiming for. I can do this!
I don't think I'll be able to complete the Chi-Ji event for Mercenaries. Since I started late with maxing out my mercs, I'm only at the 2nd half of the Blackrock Mountain levels, and it's incredibly difficult to beat those damn bosses. It took me a whole day before I could beat High Lord Omokk with the maxed out mercs I have.
Even though I'm playing it a lot recently, Mercenaries still feels like a really predatory mode. The economy is terrible, and it basically wants you to sacrifice ALL of your time if you want to max out your mercs. I just so happened to have lots of time recently so I was able to, but man, I can see why a lot of people gave up on this mode. I mean, this was one of the things that made me hesitant to be invested in the mode in the first place.

I just reached level 200. The new patch with bugfixes arrives in 5 more days and then I can complete my last 2 remaining XP achievements, finally.
Hopefully the next meta becomes a bit more balanced at the same time as well.

I´m at lvl 165 right now. After spending gold for the miniset I´m at 5k and my XP achievement count dropped to 60% done - time to work on it :)

didnt one of our awesome Mods put together a list just for Kaladin with solely possibilities about how he can find help?
I forgot who it was, maybe even our renowned Flux himself ... but I was applauding the idea.
I reached level 357.
