Panel Recap

Quote from Hearthpwn

  • Ben Thompson, Dave Kosak, and Peter Whalen are on stage.
  • They're showing off the cinematic again.
  • Everyone in the audience has 3D glasses.
  • They wanted to do something more classic Warcraft this time around.
  • "What if we do the treasure set". They were on board. 
  • Blingtron's Lootapalooza was the original goal of the set. Over time they didn't like that as much.
  • What does the mind of the Kobold look like? You're probably single minded, direct in your thought.
  • The Kobolds are building tunnels and treasure rooms!
  • The new game board is themed for the kobolds. Treasure, Magical Items, and Candles.
  • Lots of new clickables on the board - don't touch the candles!
  • The Kobolds have been digging for thousands of years.
  • It was important to keep classes distinct which made it hard to design weapons for the casters.
  • Caster weapons have 0 attack. Early on they even had 0 defense.
  • Some of the Artifact weapons from World of Warcraft may be making their way into Hearthstone.
  • Unidentified Elixir from priests will get a random effect when drawn.
  • There are three unidentified items in the game. An Elixir, a Shield, and a Weapon.
  • Spellstones are cards which get upgraded as conditions are met.
  • They spent a lot of time figuring out what kind of creatures Kobolds would run into.
  • "Sorry mini-tauren, your day will come"
  • No adventure this time around, dungeon run replaces adventure for this set.
  • Battlecrys play twice against Battlecrier Jinzo
  • Waxmancer Stermy can create wax minions that mimic your minions or hers. They're 1/1 clones.
  • Room of Traps is a rare encounter that doesn't show up as often - it's one of the hardest encounters available.
  • Two passive upgrades are given to you throughout your run to give you more power.
  • Two treasures are given to you throught your run as well. They're super powerful.
  • Every boss you beat has 3 piles of loot, each has 3 cards in it. You can take one pile per boss to add to your dungeon deck.
  • There are 40 treasures available in total.
  • There are 1.4 kobillion, or, "a lot" of combinations of runs available.
