As many have said before me, despite having opened many of these packs before the patch went live, I got new legendaries in the following pack numbers:
Opened 16 packs (9 saved, another 7 bought with gold). Got 4 Legendaries (2 gold) and 8 epics (2 gold). Drop rate is definitely higher than usual so well worth opening a few packs.
I felt bad spending the gold, but knowing you will get legendaries of packs I wouldn't have bought otherwise at this stage makes it worth it. (All I didn't have before and got increased epic rares and golden)
Ok, so I read this post this morning and had my doubts but as an infinite arena player I have a fair amount of gold on my accounts so I thought I would give it a try to test as on the Asia and US servers i'm completely free to play. So I just bought 10 of each Classic, Un'goro, Mean Streets and WoTG packs with gold on my Asia account. This account has previously opened packs from all of those sets. Here is the result
Un' Goro: 9th Pack Open the waygate also 3 epics 1 golden
Mean Streets: 2nd Pack Aya Blackpaw 5th Pack Madam Goya also 2 epics
WoTG: 5th Pack Mukla, tyrant of the vale also 4 epics 2 golden
Classic: 4th Pack The Beast 7th Pack Deathwing also1 epic
After having opened literally thousands of packs over the few years I've been playing this is not lucky. My guess would be drop rates have increased significantly not just for legendaries but also for epics and rares and the chance for a card to be golden. As I also received way more golden cards than would have been expected previously. If you are missing a lot of cards from a set it may definitely be worth buying some packs just incase Blizzard did not intend to make the drops rates this "fair"
got a golden legendary for 1 pack
I saved up a bunch of packs and opened them all:
42 Ungoro = 4 Legendaries
10 MSG = 2 Legendaries
10 WOTOG = 1 Legendary
10 Classic = 1 Legendary
= 8 Legendaries from 72 packs (Two of which legendary)
Preeeeeety good.
So it worked also for Classic pack?
As many have said before me, despite having opened many of these packs before the patch went live, I got new legendaries in the following pack numbers:
Classic - 6th pack
WotoG - 10th pack
Gadgetzan - 7th pack
Un'goro - 2nd pack
Definitely worth it!
Opened 29 packs (20 ungoro, 6 classic, 2 wotg, 1 msg) on Eu
Got 2 legendary in 9th ungoro pack and 9 epics(1 golden)
7th ungoro pack, already thinking this wasnt a good idea and got the 2 remaining quest legs i didnt have- druid and shaman.fishy fo' sure
Bought with gold
Confirmed with classic aswell in the 10 pack margin
I opened my Kolento packs, and Jungle Giants was in pack number four.
Opened 16 packs (9 saved, another 7 bought with gold). Got 4 Legendaries (2 gold) and 8 epics (2 gold). Drop rate is definitely higher than usual so well worth opening a few packs.
N/A
Classic: 10 packs - 1 Legendary
Ungoro : 3 packs - 1 Legendary
MSoG: 8 packs - 1 Legendary
WotOG: 6 packs - 1 Legendary
Asi
Classic: 6 packs - 1 Legendary
Ungoro: 3 packs - 1 Legendary
MSoG: 3 packs - 1 Legendary
WotOG: 3 packs - 1 Legendary
Whoot whoot!!
It didnt worked for me for classic I opened 15 packs just to be sure
However it worked for Un'goro, Wotog and Gadgetzan packs each time I opened one Legendary in the 10 packs as intended.
To sum up, i can say, it works sometimes. :)
On EU it works fine. Always legendarys in the first 10 packs, twice golden, once 2 legendarys in one pack.
On NA after 11 Ungoro, 10 Gadgetzan nothing, no legendarys, no golden epic.
On Asia 1 golden deathwing, but no legendary in 10 gadgetzan packs.
All Skill, No Luck
All expansions tested on my side. 7 legendaries in 45 packs (one golden, no dup). A ton of missing epics and 3900 more dusts. Pretty gooood. :-)
I was skeptical, but something's up.
if you have gold and need legendaries , do it now , buy packs 1 by 1, I did it on NA.
Classic- 10 packs Cairn
Un'Goro - 9 packs legendary quest Paladin
Gadgetzan 3 packs knuckles
Wotg 5 packs - Ragnaros lightlord
I felt bad spending the gold, but knowing you will get legendaries of packs I wouldn't have bought otherwise at this stage makes it worth it. (All I didn't have before and got increased epic rares and golden)
Classic ungoro gadget and old gods all within 3 packs
Doesnt work for eu :(
It does work in Europe except for classic
if you opened any legendary from any specific set since 22 july then you won't get it from that set now

Can anyone confirm if this has worked recently or has been fixed?
