If i remember right, the droprate for legendaries was somewhere between 1:15-20, so imagine my suprise to open my 50 packs and only find 1 of them, ungolden.
Anyone else had this experience? Did they lower the chance to find legendary cards?
In my pre-order I only pulled a Deathwing - which sucked as I pulled one from the first 3 free packs! I have since crafted some of the others. Others have had a lot of luck, so we just may have been really unlucky!
There are several threads about how many legedaries people have gotten in their packs already. If you'd checked there before creating an entirely new thread, you'd see that it's exactly as expected: Some people got lucky, some people got unlucky and most people got about an average amount of legendaries.
Your luck (or lack of the same) is completely normal, and tons of players can tell the same story as you.
Do yourself a favour and don't go to the threads where people brag about their 17 legendaries in 13 packs. People tend to be more willing to post about their successive pack-openings, rather than the opposite. Don't worry, you will get your golden The Boogeymonster eventually.
I had to spend all my gold on GvG packs before release (I lost a bet against a friend :( , at least 1200 gold wasn't that big of a deal) so I only opened 15 packs so far. I got a lot of epics, a golden Cyclopian Horror and golden Validated Doomsayer, and Y'Shaarj, Rage Unbound. I think those ratios are really good, because I think (not sure) a golden epic is a bit more rare than a legendary, and I got two of them, while also getting a legendary. The number of regular epics I got are around 4-5 btw.
I had 5 in 113 packs 4.42%), which is slightly behind the norm of 1 in 20. Feels like the same to me. I know I was ahead in epics (pulled 27 in 113 23.9% vs 20%)

Roll a dice six times and you are not guaranteed to role a six.
Oh wow it's a fucking miracle
In 134 packs I got 11 legendaries, 2 golden
odds are not a guarantee, that's not how probability works

It's called RNG, 50 packs isn't a big sample size. 1 is only 1-2 below the average. Unlucky yes but not outside any standard deviation.
62 packs here and 1 shifter zerus, 1 chogall and 1 golden deathwing (better than my TGT pre-order, where i got 2 legendaries).
But yesterday a friend of mine opened 7 legendaries from his 50 pre order packs. So, I dont think the droprate is lower.
The one RNG that everyone hates.

75 packs and 5 regular legs, so 1 in 15 - tipping the scale to the other, more lucky side.
My guess is that nothing changed at all, 50 packs is a really small sample to be able to see the difference between 1 in 20 (5%) and 1 in 15 (6,66%).

Each card you open has a 1% chance of being a legendary, which is why people usually average around 1 legendary in 20 packs(100 cards)
100 packs and only 3 legs. Phuck.
32 packs and not a single legendary
Opened 95 packs, got 5 legendaries.
8 Packs - 3 Legs. Pray to RNGesus!
By the fel armies of Sargeras... FOR THE BURNING LEGION!
134 packs, 3 Legendaries. I was wondering if they changed too, but it's more likely I'm just unlucky.
