The issue is it's way too easy to farm rare coins from level 5 content. They were never going to give good returns on that.
But um, honestly, ever since they changed the task system it's really not hard to level up your mercs just from doing tasks and getting coins from the free packs. The mode isn't really unfriendly for consumers, just kinda dull because you need to farm tasks if you want the best return.
But honestly that's better than most F2P games which don't even give you the option of grinding. It's just wait to accumulate enough money from dailies or... spend money. Like one of the "problems" with Mercenaries is you *can't* bypass the grind by spending real money because packs are bad.

Pacific_Onion posted a message on Patchnotes Coming Thursday - Changes to Theotar, Wildseeds and Harpoon Gun TeasedPosted in: NewsTheotar is better at getting the right card than some people realize. I see so many people get upset about losing Theotar odds while having a hand full of dupes. Theotar can't discover dupes. If the opponent has 10 cards in hand, 9 are coins and the other a Denathrius, Theotar will hit opponent's Denathrius 100% of the time.
If Theotar could discover dupes in hand it would have had a big impact on how consistent it's been. Take the example above. It would go from a 100% chance to get Denathrius to a 30% chance. A 4-card hand with 1 dupe would no longer be a 100% hit rate and a 5-card hand with 2 dupes would no longer be a 100% hit rate. -

izogfif posted a message on 24.2 Patch Notes - Big Battlegrounds Update, Mercenaries Update, In-Game Reporting, Wild Heroic Brawliseum & MorePosted in: NewsWhat's "inappropriate gameplay" anyway?
Prepare to get reported for "innapropriate gameplay" when your opponent loses. I personally think that Blizzard shot themselves in the foot with this "reporting" feature since most of such "reports" will be made out of spite instead of for valid reasons.
- You're playing a high winrate / dust-expensive deck? You get reported. Because you're "whaling", "netdecking" or playing "braindead" decks.
- You're playing on an unstable internet connection and got reconnected twice in the same game? You get reported for roping.
- Your deck requires complicated calculations and guesses of what your opponent might play next? You get reported for roping.
- You're trying to find the lethal and lose anyway, or you're trying to get out of lethal, escape it but get killed on the next turn and lose anyway? You'll get reported for roping.
- You're at 1-2 health, finally drew your combo piece and won the game? You get reported for BMing.
- Heck, if you had lethal on the board but played 1 more card because you weren't sure if you had the lethal, you'll get reported for BM.
P.S.: talking from experience, I got a friend request and chats blaming me for all aforementioned reasons multiple times in the past. Now you risk getting your account suspended for just playing Hearthstone against other human players.

Tarious posted a message on 24.2 Patch Notes - Big Battlegrounds Update, Mercenaries Update, In-Game Reporting, Wild Heroic Brawliseum & MorePosted in: NewsJust want to remind folks that Heroic Brawliseums are scams as you need to win 5-7 games to break even. The fact that it is wild makes it worse for people. If you don't know the wild meta ESPECIALLY DO NOT ENTER IT. Standard decks will NOT make the cut. The Brawliseum will be overrun with Shudderwock shamans, big priests, thief priests, pirate rogues, infinite turn mages, mecha'thun warlocks, and pillager rogues. These decks are EXTREMELY expensive (which is a problem with Wild itself), and are hard to counter even with wild decks. Most OTK wild decks are going off turns 6-8 nowadays, so if you can't disrupt them, you lose, and aggro makes standard aggro look like a joke.

Should be permanent because he's playing Vashj. That's the point of the post

Expansion rotations happen on the first expansion of each year which is around April.
Also, if you're talking about the new hallow's end limited time event, all cards needed have already been temporarily given to all players for free (Knights of the Frozen Throne Expansion)

So when there's no packs you whine and when there are free packs but "too few" in your eyes you still whine?
Do you want 50 free packs for watching 1 hour of stream to be satisfied?

Ok my bad on the date, read it wrong. But still there is absolutely no way this is true. There is no mention of anything like this on the internet. You would think blizzard would advertise such an insane prize

No refresh today. All they did was remove the exp from sunken city achievements but the new pass will be introduced with the new expansion on August 2nd.
You can still progress the current pass but not with those achievements. The new expansion ones now award exp but ofc they cant be completed before august 2nd

If only they would print some actual questline counter

You can just do they very first normal bounty 3 times. Easily done with level 1 mercs

Ok then 15 minutes. Is that too much to ask for a couple of packs and a warrior hero portrait? There's no monetary cost.
2
If you click on the quest, you can see the whole questline.
Also, why would you miss on anything? just get in and do the first bounty 3 times. It will take you 15mins max

How about you stop ruining bg games and go afk in ranked?
