I only have normal Ragnaros and I don't know what is better to do:
choose 1 - craft normal Sylvanas and keep it, at the end i will gain 1600 dust for Rag and i will have Sylv for free
choose 2 - craft golden Sylvanas and dust it for 1600 dust when in HoF, 3200 dust gained and still no Sylv in collection (until now i haven't played a lot in wild, but depending on the evolution of Reno Lock could be interesting)
If you have the dust for it, you just craft golden Sylvannas. You will get the 3200 back and can decide to dust it later if you decide you don't want it. If you craft the regular version, you get back your 1600, but get only 400 if you DE it vs, 1600 if you DE the golden.

ok ok i think i understand the point....however what does it means DE?
What about the commons. Like if i have 2 Power Overwhelming it's worth crafting 2 golden or 1 golden, or not?
As mentioned in the OP, you should definitely craft the golden commons if you can spare the dust. Crafting them costs 400 dust, which you get back when the rotation hits + you receive 50 dust if you choose to disenchant them. If you do nothing, you'd get only 40 dust for having the regular copy. So you'd make 10 dust profit for each golden common you craft that you disenchant afterwards.
Personally I'm going to keep the golden commons and will also craft other golden cards and keep them for as long as I can. I'll just Disenchant them when I'll need the dust again and until then will have some flashy golden cards to play with :)
The press release said the dust refund would be given upon first login after the launch. The best approach, I believe, is to simply wait until the last few days prior to the new set launch before crafting these cards in regular or golden. This will allow the most time possible to potentially open copies from packs.
If you don't want to use the cards before then, this would be true. I personally crafted Golden Sylvannas recently, as I don't own Sylvannas and she currently is playable in standard. Currently playing her in my greedy N'Zoth Jade Shaman. Lots of fun :)
I have everything normal (and 3x power overwhelming)
So if I'm correct I should craft the duplicate golden copies of the rare cards (conceal, lance, power) and crafting rag and sylv golden would be less expensive than normally but would still cost even if I DE'd afterwards?
I have crafted all golden commons. (2 ice lance, 2 PO and 2 conceal)
should i now DE my regulars or not?
i don't totally get it.
You shouldn't DE your regulars now. You should wait until the expansion goes live (early april), which is the start of the new year (Year of the Mammoth). In the new year, upon your first login, you'll be awarded the dust for owning the cards that were phased out into the HoF. After that, you can choose to DE your golden cards to gain a net profit of 10 dust, or choose to DE your regulars so that you got your golden copies for cheap.
Personally, I'm just going to keep everything. As DEing commons, golden or not, doesn't amount to all that much dust in the first place. Only when I'll really need the dust I'll start looking into DEing some of these cards.
This is all confusing as hell but I pulled a golden rag a while back so I gather I'm getting 3200 dust for something I never had to craft so basically 2 free legionaries, and that's not counting the other hall of fame cards I Have. I'm gonna miss my rag but seeing him in every freaking deck got really old so I'm glad blizzard is doing this. Same with the other hall of fame cards
Maybe I have some problem with the wording of the explanation of this refunding fest (english is not my speaking language), but, please, follow my reasoning. This is the text from gamepedia:
For example, if the player already owns 1 regular Sylvanas, they can craft a golden Sylvanas for 3200 dust; they will then get 3200 refunded (instead of only 1600), plus disenchant the regular Sylvanas for another 400 dust. As a result, the crafting cost of the golden Sylvanas is effectively reduced from 3200 to 1200.
This makes no sense to me.
If you already have a Sylvanas and craft a Golden Sylvanas, you spend 3200 dust and end up with 2 Sylvanas (1 normal and 1 golden). When Year of the Mammooth kicks in, you get FULL REFUND for the top value card you have (that is, the Golden one, that is 3200 dust) BUT YOU KEEP THEM BOTH, so you end up with 2 Sylvanas AND you have 3200 dust back. This means you can disenchant the Normal Sylvanas for 400 dust, that added to the 3200 leave you in the end with a Golden Sylvanas AND 3600 dust.
Of course this is not the case, but I don't understand why? When everybody says: "you get full refund for the cards" it then means you have the card disenchanted?
Problem is that you paid 3600 in the first place to get a golden Sylvanas.
Assumption: You own Sylvanas.
You pay for golden Sylvanas (-3600), you get that dust back (+3600) and you DE your normal Sylvanas (+400) means that you get 4000 dust and a net win of 400 dust. And you have a golden Sylvanas.
If you do nothing and save the 3600 dust you have (which you spent in the first example for golden Sylvanas), you get 1600 dust on top of the 3600 which leaves you with 5200 dust overall (and gives you the 1600 net win).
If you compare 1600 net win and no golden Sylvanas with 400 net win and a golden Sylvanas, you effectively paid 1200 dust for a golden Sylvanas. This is a bargain if you really like golden cards. If you don't care about them, it's a loss.
You are correct.. but the thing is, that doing nothing nets you 1600 dust and this option nets you 400 dust; The 1200 is the difference and therefor the discounted price for a golden sylvanas
Wait: this option nets me 400 dust AND a Golden Sylvanas! I had a normal before, so I get the golden one for free AND 400 dust from the other Sylvanas.
In short: if I craft a Golden Sylvanas, I spend 3200 dust AND I receive them back = Golden Sylvanas for 100% free.
Or am I wrong, again??
Nope.. you are correct.
But some people are in it for the dust, to craft new legendaries for the next expansion.. so they would gain only 400 dust instead of 1600.. so in their eyes.. they have 'lost' 1200 dust
If you craft a golden sylvanas (for free with the refund) and choose to de the golden sylvanas and keep your normal one you net 1600 dust ... right? Same for Ragnaros totals 3200 dust for free (just counting the legendaries).

What do you think about it?
Choose 2, but you don't HAVE to DE it.
If you have the dust for it, you just craft golden Sylvannas. You will get the 3200 back and can decide to dust it later if you decide you don't want it. If you craft the regular version, you get back your 1600, but get only 400 if you DE it vs, 1600 if you DE the golden.
Should you craft/disenchant (Golden) Sylvanas or Ragnaros?
Find out in the: ULTIMATE dust guide for Hall of Fame cards
DE = DisEnchant (aka dusting a card, opposite of crafting).
