As of today, I reached level 100. At the current rate of gaining 20 levels each week, I should be able to attain level 350 at the very end of this expansion cycle.
Also, since choosing Nightslayer Valeera I have been playing Rogue a bit more. Really liking this sweet new hero portrait.
Well... Absolutely nothing changed for me. I'm still level 34. The exp requirement for the next level dropped like... 800 points. And that's it. I already closed the client and logged in again to see if it was a visual glitch or something but that's not the case. So... yeah. Can't say i'm happy.
Nothing to worry about, the way they implemented this is that the 37000 XP reduction occurs at the end portion of the reward track around level 50. This just means you were not within that striking distance yet to notice the XP reduction update to instantly jump a few levels up. Keep a close eye out on the matter though, it would not be the first time a patch was released that was buggy.
I'm sitting @ level 37 (559/5800) with two 1k xp daily quests on my log.
I just managed level 38. I'm still debating on whether I should just sit on my weekly quests (the new quests we get tomorrow) until after the patch or complete them tomorrow.
I ended up completing 2 of the weekly quest (via BG) along with 2 dailies to push level 39 just now.
It really helps that the dailies can now be concede at start & get credit towards daily. No way that I'm playing any matches before my morning cup of coffee!
I really wonder if this new concede behavior was intentional or not. In the past, a message would popup that there were too few turns played to gain quest progress. Thus, I would not be surprised that this will be reverted in a future update. I would be disappointed though, because it would also mean more time lost completing these silly daily quests.
Currently, they might as well add the daily quest XP towards our XP progress simply for logging in.
I think your math is wrong. No chance you jump from level 51 to level 80.
The rewards track update also splits each 50+ level into 3 parts. This means that the influx of 37000 XP which in the old track would move me to level 60 instantly will move me 3 times that in the new track, so I will be close to level 80 if not on level 80 itself after the update.
Please note that there will be a total of 350 levels after the rewards track update today instead of the previous limit of 150 levels. The total amount of XP required level 50 onwards did not change though.
what the hell? so that basically means the packs we opened from Darkmoon Faire werent even worth its 100 gold each since u were getting dupes rares and commons when u could be getting the extra ones that are missing. thats next level rip off. cant believe they went that way
Annoying, right? Not only did Blizzard change our way of playing this game through the rewards track and having to obtain enormous amounts of XP via grinding out games. They also changed our way of pack openings which occurred mostly at the start of each new expansion for the majority of players.
I do not want to sound like the Doomsayer here, but he was right: "The end is coming!" 😄
I finally managed to reach level 51 before the reward track gets updated later today. For the rewards, I picked the alternate coin and the Nightslayer Valeera hero portrait (hoping I will play that class more often). With the rewards track update, I should get a boost to level 60 instantly. I will wait and not open the 5 Darkmoon Faire packs we will be receiving today until the mini expansion is released.
so the mini expansion isnt gonna be released in the form of an adventure? or somekind of thing where u spend around 2k gold and u get all the cards from the mini expansion? u saying its gonna be added into the regular Darkmoon Faire packs? cause that would be a first
Yes, they have said that a mini expansion will be released about halfway into this latest expansion and those cards will be obtainable through regular Darkmoon Faire card packs. This is part of the elaborate scheme IMO to have people buy more packs with real money at the beginning of the expansion if they want to play with more decks from the get go. I myself, will not do that and just have to adjust my pack openings from all occurring at the start of a new expansion and redistribute that quite a bit to leave pack openings halfway the expansion possible without using real money.
For a whale like me, this is not really a problem since I have accumulated upwards of 200K convertible arcane dust over the years (I usually buy every package deal), but it feels really bad to me at least to spend that arcane dust in a significant way. I know the purpose of dust is to craft cards with (I can hear you) but it still feels bad to do it. I tend to craft a few legendaries every expansion but my arcane dust pile keeps growing.

I should reach level 50 by the very end of this weekend, only 16000 XP short of level 50 currently. I wonder how many levels boost we will receive with the Rewards Track update on December 15th. I can probably calculate it myself, but I would like it to be a surprise.
As a sidenote, which hero portrait will you all choose? Demon Hunter would probably be my most logical choice since I only have 88 wins with that class, but some of the others look nicer though.
This weekend I hit level 46 with the bonus XP boost. I should reach level 50 exactly 7 days from now... the reward track is really a terrible grind. At least levels 50+ require significantly less XP per level.
How many snowflakes can be collected while travelling OoC each day? I'm interested in knowing the upper limit, just like it was made clear during the Oozefest earlier this fall 😋
I had 2 great opportunities to finish the No Pathetic Cards achievement which is very challenging to set up and in both cases my opponent chooses to concede instead. All other games in between were just mission impossible cause they are simply overpowered, but hey Blizzard decided that this should be done in ranked mode, so thanks a lot for wasting my time!
Two weeks in and I reached level 35 today. According to my XP calculations, it means I'm about 46% on track to reach level 50. I almost reached the halfway point, yay!
Strangely enough, my progress to level 100 is now 21% and to level 150 is 14%. This is because of the steep XP curve towards level 50 and afterwards it drops and rises up much flatter onwards.

How is your progression going?
Thanks for featuring my deck, much appreciated!
Still no updated rewards track info on this site, I guess my expectations were a bit too high or the crew is too busy.
I'm 100% sure that a new blog post with this information (datamined) will be added within 24 hours on this very site 😋
Just be patient and enjoy the updated game in the meantime.

As expected, after logging in after the patch I got 30 times the 50 gold earned notification and moved up to level 80 🤓

Yeah, this deck does get the job done, but you need some cooperation from your opponent to get the achievement 😅
Today, I noticed I got a 13th snowflake and none afterwards, so the upper limit seems to be 13 (at least for today).

I finally got the most frustrating No Pathetic Cards achievement using this deck (guide included) in Standard:
The satisfaction level was almost like reaching Legend for the very first time! 😂

Another minor update, I just hit level 40, which means 61% progress towards level 50.
I hope you are doing well also, good luck y'all! 🤠
