Miniexpansion

Announced probably this week. Revealed next tuesday and released wednesday. Why? Because its seemingly a marketing tactic to have the time between reveals and release as small as possible; maybe in a hopeless attempt to keep the hype high enough …

Not bad really. Its sort of like [card]thing from below[/card], mostly because of the taunt, and that's likely what will push people to want to make it work. Because you …

Thanks to McCree's Name Change in Overwatch, Blizzard Has Opened Up a Free BattleTag Change Until November 5

Just imagine if this blows up as well, the former McCree would then need to come out with another narrative as to why he's changing his name yet again.

Let's hope that there isn't anyone named Cole Cassidy in blizz management anytime soon.

United in Stormwind Mini Set Predictions - What Could Hearthstone's Next Cards Bring?

There's not going to be a rogue mount spell. I think Dean said something about buff spells not being what they want in rogue. And since all mounts are buffs, I dont think its happening.

Actually, from what we've …

Getting extra portraits when I'm missing Mercs?

There's no dupe protection in mercs. Basically you have a chance to get screwed with a skin each time you open one, despite having missing a few mercs of that rarity. Happened to me too many times. Rolled a legendary …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Q&A #34 - Balance, Pandaren Ninjas, Mercenaries, Datamining, & More

Ironically, all this really does is to switch air elemental with snowclaw. Is it really a change meeting their expectations? I'd argue if they make the coin drops a guaranteed thing then people might actually want to grind different bosses …

[Question] Bounty rewards

There seem to be a difference in coin drop rate according to rarity. Ive grinded for legendary coins with a fairly small team and often enough I'll be getting coins for the lowest rarity available more often than the ones …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Q&A #34 - Balance, Pandaren Ninjas, Mercenaries, Datamining, & More

Ive stayed out of pvp and I cant say I can see myself ever going there. Talking strictly as a f2p (whom the lord may forgive but I cant let go of that 5 bucks deal), there is a good …

Dean Ayala's Hearthstone Q&A #34 - Balance, Pandaren Ninjas, Mercenaries, Datamining, & More

Not sure if anyone heard of this yet, but there seem to be a new way to farm for xp. Start a game in mercs, then leave it hanging. No bots, no mods, no macros. Just leave it while the …

Blizzard is Rebalancing the Mysterious Stranger in Mercenaries, Fixes to Tasks Coming

You can try snowclaw. Its three battles to one mystery wheel, minimum of 2 battles if you get lucky. Since regular snowclaw is earliest for the recommended level 30, the stranger still works there. Its just that winterspring's enemies aren't …

Blizzard is Rebalancing the Mysterious Stranger in Mercenaries, Fixes to Tasks Coming

I think the hotfix is up Im afraid. Tried out air elemental heroic for 10 games, 0 strangers but lots of potatos. Then tried out snowclaw, 3 so far with 2 strangers

If anyone else have bigger sample sizes, …

Blizzard Sent Me a Hearthstone Mercenaries Care Package, Let's Talk Public Datamining!

I dont get why blizz was so pissed that mercs got datamined off the client because what exactly did that do that adversely affected their business in any way? Mercs was being spoiled anyway, because as mentioned, as few lucky …

Blizzard is Rebalancing the Mysterious Stranger in Mercenaries, Fixes to Tasks Coming

On one hand Im a little happy to know that I dont have to run the air elemental gauntlet anymore. But on the other, if this ends up making the grind even harder, I think it'll just be the last …

"Reduce Damage" abilities calculate before or after critical damage?

The reduction happens before the double damage is applied. Seen it happen too many times, with Mutanus scales, and the treasure that reduces damage.

Blizzard Releases the Top Party Compositions and Characters in Hearthstone Mercenaries - The State of High Level PVP

You'd probably get more out of the game if you try the heroic bosses, because those things aren't kidding about. I was about to quit the game myself, having beaten everything with ease, and then I tried heroics and got …

Blizzard Releases the Top Party Compositions and Characters in Hearthstone Mercenaries - The State of High Level PVP

It is precisely because of that maxing out bonus that I think the pvp grind is just veering close to being intolerable if you're not sinking real cash into the game. And the stat gain is not insignificant; its about …

Mercenary: Legendary coin purse

Probably random. I cant see why team5 would deliberately sell coins for legendaries we dont have yet, because it'll likely just provoke memes in reddit telling us how useless the coins were

 

Edit: Okay, its random. Explicitly …

Problem with pre-order duplicate protection

I heard a lot of talk about there being some kind of protection so you'll only ever get skins once you have all the mercs of that particular rarity, but …
