well, about 20 less KFT packs i'll be opening, but I got a legendary in my 8th MSoG pack (Genzo, FeelsBadMan) and either my 7th or 8th WoG pack (Soggoth). also bought about 5 JUG packs, but did not go for 10, since i'll be playing at least 1 arena tomorrow. if i get 5 gold in rewards, i'll probably keep playing until i get a 0, and then if i haven't gotten a legendary and haven't passed the 10 pack mark, i'll buy enough packs with gold until i hit 10 or get the legendary.
funny my RNG seems to be running toward the poor side even with this supposed bug, but at least its been a little before the 10 pack mark (or perhaps to the good side if the bug doesn't exist and i just wasted my gold for science)
(ETA pity timer information:
MSoG was at 0, had stopped after my last legendary.
WoG: not 100% certain, but if not at 0, it would have been close as well as any I opened after the last were probably from Choose Your Champion packs or possibly a random arena pack, and I play VERY little arena.
for JUG, its a little uncertain. I was only maybe 3-6 packs in before word of the pity timer bug spread, but i had already stopped opening packs to save for KFT at that time. when the Frost Festival started, I went ahead and opened the packs I got from the arenas I played, plus 2 from arenas the week prior to the festival starting, because my pity timer was low, and i'm still missing half the legendaries from the set, so i figured the chances of opening a legendary AND it being a dupe was fairly low. so long story short, if my pity timer wasn't affected by the previous bug, it stands at 21 currently, after the 5 packs opened today...)
ETA part 2: so opened the pack from the free arena, and got Kalimos (6th JUG pack in the test to go along with 8 MSoG and 8 WoG. should be coming up on 10 classic packs as well, but i'll just let that one naturally occur from brawls, since I think I'm just 2 away, if it works (that seems to be the set most people aren't having it work with), and if it doesn't i'm already nearly halfway on the pity timer, so it'll get there eventually)
I went back and i purchased 10 gadgetzan packs... Two legendaries and one GOLDEN! i bought 10 more just epics; 5 more two epics. Thats it for this season.
I got 7 legendaries and two of then golden. This was a good opening. I,m still saving 3000 gold for next expansion.
To disprove it, it takes just one person that didn't get legendary in 10 packs. And there are already multiple reports of it. Why are people still trying?
- i had 10 Ungoro packs - 2 legs (Sherazin and golden Spiritsinger Umbra) - 8 classic packs - the first had The Beast - so i bought Gadgetzan packs - 8th had Hobart Grapplehammer - second Old Gods pack had Cho Gall
Fucking confirmed, although the duplicates are a little strange. I might even buy wild packs if I can get a guaranteed GvG or TGT legendary.
Have you got all the legendaries from Whispers & Mean, by chance? If not, you should open a support ticket with Blizz, since after the new changes you shouldn't get dupe legendaries anymore (Hogger and Krul, in your case).

It surely is proven to not work consistently... Still it works consistently enough about 75% off the people trying according to the strawpool is good enough, and probably enough people to not just make it GOD rng...
I've just tested it again on Asia server, classic set. 5 packs, open 2nd one, got Tinkmaster.
P.S. I've just reset my pity timer before today's update. I pulled a Deathwing. I am sure of this because I am F2P and stop every time I hit the pity timer.
Again, if you still don't believe something is up, don't take the risk.
Bought 3 Meanstreets packs. got a Golden Knuckles Im never this lucky. i have a handful of legendaries as just a free player. got The Beast last week so i shouldn't have been due for one
"Logically" ? This is a bug. None, not even blizzard, knows how it works. Thus there can not be any logical conclusion. Maybe it is just something about opening packs in general, or just with the total 10 packs of each set. I got 1 legendary from 3 classic, then 1 from 2 packs more of classic... so only working once... ? Maybe this is all just luck... it surely can happen...
I didn't want to spend all my gold on that because of the next expansion, but did buy 10 packs to try it just to see. Well, first Un'goro pack I got Jungle Giant quest, 4th pack of gadgetzan I got Kazakus, and the Old Gods I opened 5 packs of it and nothing yet. I could still buy more but I don't want to spend to much gold before KoFT :) (And I'm quite happy with my C'Thun, Yogg and N'zoth from this expansion ^^)
because it is about the rate, not necessarily guarantee. And you also need to know, we do not know the rule for sure. Some people may also make mistake while doing it.
for example: 1. miss count, they open total 8 packs but they thought they have 10 2. switching between accounts and servers 3. mixing packs from saving, real money and gold.

Has anyone tested with GvG or TGT packs?
Guys, I really thought you are trolling, but WTF...
Just opened one Un'Goro pack I forgot to open from my yesterday arena: golden razormaw, anaconda and Open the Waygate
Holy fuck, can't be that lucky with the other sets, guess I won't try
I went back and i purchased 10 gadgetzan packs... Two legendaries and one GOLDEN! i bought 10 more just epics; 5 more two epics. Thats it for this season.

Definitely works:
- i had 10 Ungoro packs - 2 legs (Sherazin and golden Spiritsinger Umbra)
- 8 classic packs - the first had The Beast
- so i bought Gadgetzan packs - 8th had Hobart Grapplehammer
- second Old Gods pack had Cho Gall
Worked for me as well. Server: Asia
I opened the following after I had hit pity timer in all the sets. Its not luck, so must be a bug on server side.
5th Ungoro = Clutchmother
7th Classic = Illidan
3rd WotoG = Hallazeal
8th MSoG = Finja
Edit: Also Epic and golden common drop rates have improved.

I did open some pack that i got saved:
3 ungoro= Nothing
5 Old gods= 1 Golden Legendary, and every pack get epic
3 Motg = 1 Legendary
8 Classics= Nothing
i got say its good, so much epic and golden
100% confirmed. Asia server.
MSOG: Golden Wrathion and a Don Honcho in the same pack. Pack 6 I believe?
WOTOG: Princess Huhuran on pack 8.
Does anyone know if you can keep exploiting it? Or does it only work once?
Logically, it should only work once
Also worked for me on EU ;)
I've just tested it again on Asia server, classic set.
5 packs, open 2nd one, got Tinkmaster.
P.S. I've just reset my pity timer before today's update. I pulled a Deathwing.

Bought 3 Meanstreets packs. got a Golden Knuckles
Im never this lucky. i have a handful of legendaries as just a free player.

Dude i wasted all my money open 20 packs
10 Classical - Legendary (6th pack)
10 Gadgezan - Legendary(10th pack)
gotta farm some gold hope for yogg until this is gets patched
