Clarifications

Quote from Blizzard

I assumed it was a keyword, sort of like a secret only with the condition (/option - I assume you can mulligan them away?) that they are added to your starting hand.

Quests show up in your opening mulligan and you can choose to mulligan them away. (Mike Donais)

The question I have is will N'Zoth summons count for the quest, I doubt it does since it doesn't for normal quests, but it does trigger some other in game mechanics (knife juggler I believe).

The Quest says 'summon' which is means the N'zoth minions count. If the Quest said 'play' then the N'zoth minions would not count. (Mike Donais)

Do we get a 'normal' legendary minion AND a quest card for each class? So 2 legendaries per class?

This is correct! (Yong Woo)

What about neutral legendaries? Prior sets have had 10-12, do the quests cut into that number? 1-3 neutrals?

5 neutral Legendaries (Peter Whalen)

OMG. Warlocks Dark Peddler can discover Quests?

Quests won't come from random effects like Discover or Babbling Book. (Peter Whalen)

So again, this means quests are not spells or minions, but an entirely new card type?

Quests are spells, but due to its nature, we don't allow them to be discovered/randomly generated. (Yong Woo)

Quote from Blizzard

In Journey to Un’Goro, Plant Eats You

Ready to join Elise Starseeker and her junior explorers on an expedition into the uncharted territory of Un’Goro crater? Your descent into these wild lands will be a thrilling adventure—you’ll make wondrous discoveries as you become one of the first to unearth mysteries long forgotten under the thick jungle mists. Un’Goro’s prehistoric inhabitants may not take kindly to your curiosity, but you never know who might appear to offer assistance in your time of need. 

Adapting to Your Surroundings

Pack your journal and a trusty quill, because there’s more to the inhabitants of Un’Goro than meets the eye—135 all-new minions, spells, and more await you in Hearthstone’s newest expansion. 

   

Nothing is more primal than the elements themselves, and Un’Goro’s ancient energies empower the resident elementals with a vigor and ferocity not seen anywhere else. Some of Hearthstone’s familiar faces will gain the Elemental minion type, joining the ranks of Murlocs, Dragons, Pirates, and Beasts for exciting new synergies.

 

Quickly, grab your quill—we’ve stumbled upon one of Un’Goro’s resident fauna, the Verdant Longneck. While it may seem like a simple, harmless herbivore at first glance, these creatures have the ability to adapt to threats in their environment. Write this next part down!

The new Adapt keyword allows a minion to become infused with elemental power, granting it new properties. Similar to the discover mechanic, you will be presented with three options when you play a card with Adapt. You can choose one of these three options to immediately buff your minion. There are ten total Adaptations to choose from, so you’ll have plenty of options to respond to threats presented by your opponent.

 

 

 

 

While we’re in Un’Goro, let’s be sure to see and document all we can. From the hottest volcano to the stickiest, bubbliest tar pits, there’s a wealth of new and exciting things to discover. Let’s make it a personal Quest to see them all!

Quest cards are an exciting new card type coming to Hearthstone. Quest cards are Legendary, so you can only have one in your deck, and they’ll always appear in your opening hand. Each Quest will have prerequisites listed on it—should you complete them, you’ll be granted incredible rewards! Quests show up on your Hero Portrait once you play them. Check out the Priest Quest “Awaken the Makers” and the card awarded from completing it: Amara, Warden of Hope!

 

Pull back the vines and peer through your spyglass at the delightfully overgrown Un'Goro game board!
