Hearthpwn

I Think they changed something , becouse i always got the drops from Twitch and Youtube in the past.

Now i checked connection on Battlenet account page and  Twitch and Google are not connected on the top part of the page , but on bottom part are listed as Authorized Applications ( Twitch Interactive, Inc. ,  Google ) 

Like someone said in the past there was a Twitch page to connect it , now is not present and you can only link from battlenet account page , but is possible the old connections still works.

Will test it next drops and update this post.

https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/hearthstone/t/issue-with-talented-arcanist/74357/

i tested with unexpected results and same happens.

main problem is they put quests before you can do it,  like the thrall quest and thrall adventure still not relased.

Are you sure you can do it now ? can someone ask Celestalon ?

yeah is was totally wrong , tested it in another region and works like you said. 

Then i realized to do the quest i switched to casual mode to not lose stars at platinium , and the anchivements only work on ranked and duels. :(

-edit- yeah is was totally wrong , tested it in another region and works like you said.

The missing part is you have to keep all the minions in hand , and you need luck ( bulk up is random target) , when you buff the first minion , you have two copies of 3-6 sword eater , when you draw the 3rd sword eater , the 2nd bulk up must go on the unbuffed one ( four 3-6 sword eater) , if bulk up go on already buffed sword eater you end with  two 4-7 sword eater , one 3-6 and one 2-5 and quest dont works.

Feat of Strenght is a dead card becouse for quest you cant use it , so is better to have a second pair of taunt minion , mb cheap ones like Annoy-o-Tron or Bonechewer Brawler , just dont use bulk up when you have different taunt minions in hand.

i post here just to get the new April Fool site Achievement.

What happens with Chameleos when opponent have mutating cards like Chameleos , Shifter Zerus , etc  ..  it display the original card or the mutated one ?

Dear all,

The Lich King is available since several weeks, but unfortunately, the Lich King tab is missing in the collection. Note also that the tab icon do not match the corresponding cards (the missing icon is the warrior one).

Thanks by advance

Hey all,
I'm done with most of the achievements that provide XP and I thought I'll post a quick guide to some of them like I did a couple of expansions ago. Two quick points:
(1) For many of the achievements there is no secret to them, you just have to grind long enough to complete them. For example to summon 75 Persistent Peddlers you play Deathrattle Demon Hunter running 2x the card and keep playing until you are done with it. I won't discuss such 'obvious' achievements unless there is something more to them
(2) Some achievements require you to play somewhat bad cards or decks. I try to complete these in Duels rather than tank my MMR in standard or wild. Sometimes the small deck size of round 1 in Duels or some of the offered treasures might even make the achievement completion even easier. 
So here it comes:

• Have 75 Cast When Drawn spells trigger as Druid: The thing worth mentioning here is that you don't need Sheldras Moontree, who is anyway too slow, expensive, unplayable, etc. You just need to have Vibrant Squirrels die as the Acorns are cast when drawn spells. One more thing is that if you are grinding this one in Duels, you can always try to pick up the Book of Wonders treasure that shuffles 10 Scroll of Wonders into your deck for more 'cast when drawn' effects.
• After playing Antonidas, have all 3 Fireballs hit the opposing hero and destroy them: Not sure if this has been 'fixed' already, but until a few days ago thanks to a bug all you had to do is drop Grand Magus Antonidas on an empty board while his effect was active and the achievement would be completed even if you didn't destroy the enemy hero on that turn.
• Summon a Silver Hand Recruit with 5 Attack: There are many ways to achieve this quickly, but for sure you don't need the new Paladin questline. It's much easier in Duels with the Bring on Recruits hero power and Men at Arms starting treasure plus some of the new handbuff cards like Alliance Bannerman and Prismatic Jewel Kit you should be able quite easily to have a 5/5 dude in hand and then just drop it on the board and all done.
• Draw the Purified Shard the same turn you shuffle it into your deck: One thing to pay attention to here if you are doing this in Duels or Wild. Shadow Visions doesn't work as it only discovers 'a copy' of the shard. You need to play Thrive in the Shadows instead.
• Trigger Battlecries with Bolner 100 times: Here there is another bug and if you play Bolner Hammerbeak followed by Kazakus, Golem Shaper you get it done at once. My achievement page shows me that I did it 127312 times...
• Summon 50 minions from your deck as Warrior: Sure you can play Big Warrior and lose to 80% of the meta in standard, but you can also play 50 games of Pirate Warrior in wild and summon Patches 50 times (and win most of them in the process)
• Add 100 Coins to any player's hand: Apart from cards like Loan Shark, Mailbox Dancer and the old ones like Umbral Skulker, Licensed Adventurer, Tomb Pillager, etc, there is the Bag of Coins Duels treasure that helps a lot if you pick it up in a run.
• Play a 0-mana legendary dragon: Priest in Duels is the best pick I'd say for this.If you have Lady Prestor, you don't even need to run 0-drops, but just 1-drops and Draconic Studies (you can even get lucky with 2- and 3-drops + Insight). Without the lady, you can try to hard-run Brightwing as your only minion, draw it via Insight and play a Draconic Studies before dropping it. Finally you can try to get the Dragon Affinity duels treasure to facilitate it even more
• Summon a legendary minion from Stubborn Suspect: Play duels as Hunter with the Death Games hero power and Deathstrider starting treasure to maximize the deathrattle triggers of the Stubborn Suspect.
• The rest of the achievements have no secret/trick to them as far as I know.

Good luck and feel free to post if you have any additional insights to some of the achievements.

Guide to complete all the achievements from Forged in the Barrens that will grant you XP

Hi guys! I just made this guide. Hope it's useful for you. (I think the order of the achievements, especially the Neutral ones, is different on everyone, so keep that in mind). Many of the achievement this expansion is very straight forward, and therefore can't be done with a few games. But I will try to help you getting as many of them as possible - with the help of you guys as well. This guide will be updated once new inputs on the achievements appear in the comments.

Demon Hunter: (These can be done at the same time)

• Destroy 30 minions with Kurtrus Ashfallen: Play Kurtrus Ashfallen.
• Summon 50 Deathrattle minions without playing them, as Demon Hunter: Play Death Speaker Blackthorn with the deathrattle package. You can also play Wild using N'Zoth, the Corruptor to summon Deathrattle minions, and also Carnivorous Cube. (Thanks to TheHiddenNinja7)
• Trigger 20/60/200 Sigils: Play Sigil of Flame + Sigil of Silence.

  Play everything in the same deck and  you will eventually get all three achievements.

Druid:

• Play 5 cards in a single turn that naturally cost 8 or more: play a deck with Celestial Alignment and many 8+ cost cards.
• Cast 5 Druid Nature spells in a single turn, 25 times: Play Token Druid, and this will come to you over time.
• Copy 5/20/50 minions with Plaguemaw the Rotting: Play a deck filled with taunts and this card. You can also copy the Plaguemaw using Faceless Manipulator Germination and Zola the Gorgon. (Thanks to TheHiddenNinja7)

Hunter:

• Trigger the Frenzy on a 5th-generation Sunscale Raptor: Play a deck with a lot of small spells so that you can get the Frenzy-effect guaranteed, and draw the Raptor with Scavenger's Ingenuity. You have to be a bit lucky, but it's doable. You can also draw with Warsong Wrangler and Master's Call. (Thanks to TheHiddenNinja7)

• Summon 10/30/75 Beasts with Tavish Stormpike: Play a Beast deck with the card, and you will get this in a few games.

• Summon 6 Swift Hyenas in a single turn: Play Face Hunter with Kolkar Pack Runner and a lot of small spells. If you have two on board at the same time you only need 3 spells (but remeber to clear space for the 6th one).

Mage:

• Destroy 50 Frozen minions: You can go all in and fill your deck with Freeze spells and damage, such as Cone of Cold, but the most fun way is to play Hero Power Mage with Varden Dawngrasp, and the achievement will come by itself.
• Deal 75/150/300 damage with your Hero Power as Mage: Play Hero Power Mage with Wildfire and Reckless Apprentice.
• Refresh 8 Mana Crystals with Refreshing Spring Water in a single turn: Play No Minion Mage and cast two of these in the same turn.

Paladin:

• Buff 60/200/600 minions with Invigorating Sermon: Use this card in Libram Paladin, and the achievement will come by itself. It buffs your entire deck, so it will go faster than you think.
• Cast 5 Paladin Holy spells in a single turn, 15 times: Play Secret Libram Paladin.
• Trigger 5 Paladin Secrets in one turn: Play a throw away game in wild. Wait until your opponent has a 3+ attack minion. Play any minion + Reckoning, Noble Sacrifice, Avenge, Redemption and Getaway Kodo. All 5 trigger on the minion's attack. (Thanks to SneezyDwarf_18710)

Priest:

• Attack and kill the drained minion with Serena Bloodfeather, 5 times: For the priest achievement with Serena Bloodfeather, since the card is total garbage and you don't want to play a deck with her I suggest you also do it in Duels. Just put her and Animated Broomstick in your deck and wait till you draw both. Should be fairly easy in the first 1-2 rounds where your deck is quite small, especially with the heal/draw hero power. (Thanks to SirJohn13)
• Start 5/20/50 turns with a full hand as Priest: draw as many cards as you can early-game, so that you end each turn with 9 cards. You don't have to overdraw for this achievement. Drawing the 10th card at the start of your turn is enough.
• Restore 40 Health to heroes in one game as Priest: Fill your deck with healing cards, especially Desperate Prayer, as you heal the opponent hero as well.

Rogue:

• Play 6/9/12 cards in a single turn as Rogue: Play Miracle or Weapon Rogue, or fill your deck with 0-2 cost cards + Secret Passage. You also need Shadowstep and preferably Tenwu of the Red Smoke.
• Coat a Swinetusk Shank in 4 different Poisions: Play a deck with the Shank and all the poisions, and do not attack (So that your Weapon lives). You can also save all the different Poisons in your hand so that you guarantee to play all 4 on the same weapon.
• Yoink! All 10 Hero Powers: Play Yoink! and keep track of which Hero Powers you already have selected.

Shaman:

• Deal 30/60/150 extra damage with Nature spells: SPELL DAMAGE and Nature spells together. Hint: Bru'kan!
• Destroy 50 enemies with Murlocs as Shaman: Play Murloc Shaman (even though it's not good at all) and focus on trading and killing minions instead of going face.
• Play an Elemental 5 turns in a row: Play Elemental Shaman or fill your deck with Elementals. Then count your turns and play only Elementals.

Warlock:

• Summon 25/100/250 Imps: Play Discard Warlock and end the game with Neeru Fireblade. Throw in Fiendish Circle and Imp Swarm (Rank 1) to get even more Imps per game. You can also play duels with the passive hero power Soulcial Studies that summons an imp for every soul fragment card played. (thanks to SirJohn13)
• Cast 80 0-Cost Warlock Shadow spells: Play Tamsin Roame. You can also play Wild and use Supreme Archaeology and Wilfred Fizzlebang. If you don't have these cards, there are a few Shadow spells that originally cost 0, such as Raise Dead and Ritual of Doom.
• Destroy 3 Legendary cards with a single Altar of Fire: Play a deck with only Legendaries (easier in Wild) + Altar of Fire. Easily done in 1 or 2 games.

Warrior:

• Use Bulk Up to create a 4th copy of the same minion in your hand: Play a deck with only one Taunt minion with 2 copies of it. Draw both minions, then play 2 Bulk Up. You can play a Taunt with Rush (Ruststeed Raider) and draw them with Stage Dive.
• Gain 14 Armor with a single Rancor: You can go for luck, or play a Wild deck with Mad Summoner followed up with Rancor.
• Have 10/40/100 friendly minions survive damage on your turn, as Warrior: Play Frenzy or Rush Warrior, or go to Wild and use Risky Skipper.

Neutral: 

• Play 15/50 Watch Posts: Play a deck with Watch Posts, and this will come automatically.
• Build costum Golems using 6/9/12 different herbs: Play Kazakus, Golem Shaper and keep track of every herb you have used.
• Cast 10/40/100 Rank 3 spells: Play any deck with a Rank spell, and this will come to you.
• Trigger 10/40/100 Frenzy effects: Play Frenzy Warrior, or fill a deck with Frenzy cards and play a few meme games in rank 10 or 5 (so that you don't lose rank).
• End your turn with 7 Gruntled Patrons: Play Warrior Duels and choose Spiked Arms. Summon a Gruntled Patron while the weapon is equipped. (Thanks to Greym1)
• Destroy 25 minions with Venomous Scorpid: Play the card, and this will come.
• Start 10/40/100 turns with a Caravan: This is boring. No class has more than 2 copies of a Caravan, so if you want the achievement I suggest you play a good deck with the calss you chose, and put two copies of Caravan into your deck. This will slowly give you the achievement.
• Find Mankrik's Wife + get lethal damage with the summoned Mankrik: Just play Mankrik, and this will eventually come. I will suggest Shuffle Rogue, as you can get more Mankriks in your deck.
• Copy 5 Secrets with a single Horde Operative: Very hard. Play it in your deck against Secret Paladin and you might be lucky.
• Swap a 0-Cost minion with a 10-Cost minion with Shadow Hunter Vol'jin: Easy. Make a deck with only 0-Cost and 10-Cost cards + Vol'jin, and you can swap your own minion. This is easy because you can guarantee it to hit a 10-Cost in you hand by playing all the 0-cost first. There aren't that many 0-cost minions, so fill the rest of the deck with spells so they won't interrupt.
• Summon 50 Demonspawn with Burning Blade Acolyte: I suggest you put this in a Wild Deathrattle deck, because then you can trigger the Deathrattle several times with spells etc.
• Summon 50 Hogs with Hog Rancher: Put this in your deck and play. To get this a bit faster, play Battlecry Shaman in Wild to get two copies played every time, or a Rogue deck where you can play it several times with cards such as Shadowstep.
• Summon a 10-Cost minion with Primordial Protector: Use the Primordial Protector in a Clown Druid drawing Survival of the Fittest or in a Primordial Hunter drawing Nagrand Slam.

Hope you all enjoy! If you have better suggestions for some achievements, please post them in the comments for people to see. I will also update the post if I see some better suggestions. 

I've used feat of strength a few times with this deck. But it's fine to sub in something else. I wouldn't put in a taunt. I'd sub in removal or healing. Or Horde operative. Also, to prevent the Bulk up to go to the wrong minion you should play it. They don't have to be in your hand all at once.

Quote from theremon >>

I think you don't get how the Hall of Fame works.

All cards moving to HoF will give you dust but you keep the cards. They follow the same pattern, so why remove them completely?

I don't think you get that my post isn't about dust, rather about the consistency of cards that are put into HoF.

So far, cards that are moved to HoF were, as developers said, either omnipresent/overused or were "limiting future design options" if they stayed in standard. Fine. This time, apart from Genn/Baku and three classic cards that indeed could be/are material for HoF, we have four cards that are total opposite - they're neither overused, nor they are limiting design space.

Now, if these cards were really good, then it would make sense to keep them, but, apart from Murkspark Eel which is decent, other three are medicore/bad and are only in HoF because, without Genn/Baku in standard, they'd be completely pointless. So why keep these bad cards in HoF alongside other powerful cards? Just so we can have more cards in the game? Nonsense.

Quote from Bluelights >>

People will get dust from them when they move to the HoF.

 

 I don't care about dust, I was talking about something else.

Quote from YourPrivateNightmare >>

or they can just leave them as is and we still get the dust anyways

 Really people? Dust is the only thing you care about? 

- Dunno if I'm crazy but this foam looks like Yogg Saron to me. Guess my night is gonna be random
