Quest for Packs Giveaway has an Additional Grand Prize
As announced earlier today by Blizzard, the Grand Prize for the Quest for Packs promotion has been leveled up. This should help the winner offset the taxes on the prize, "a daunting prospect". The total grand prize is now as follows.
- 3000 Hearthstone Packs
- The Lich King's Helmet
- Hearthstone Apparel Gift Set (T-shirt, cap, and pin)
- $1200 (USD)
Be sure to login every day and do a daily quest so you get an entry into the contest. More information can be found here.
Quote from DaxxarriWe hope your Quest for Packs has been going well so far. We’ve heard hopeful adventurers voice concerns that the idea of winning the Grand Prize is a daunting prospect. That’s not in the spirit of a proper quest, so to help smooth your way, we’re making the rewards sweeter.
The Grand Prize will now include $1200.00 USD.
We’ve updated our Quest for Packs blog with this new prizing information. You can also read updated contest rules here!
Thanks for joining us in the tavern, and good luck on your quest!
What an awfull idea this lottery: the rewards will be given to just a small bunch of players while all the others will get absolutly nothing. Imho everyone would appreciate more an event with free packs or gold bonus or free Arena ticket.Also boring mechanics to just complete your daily quests instead of doing something different.
To me it seems such a lazy management.
Isn't that how lottery works?
Blizzard logic dungeon runs won't have rewards because we don't want to make you play for a price two months later they create this giveaway
How is that confirmation? If it goes anywhere else the winner would just get whatever their local equivalent is (perhaps minus whatever a bank charges to convert it).
Viva Hearths Vegas!
I read the title as there was now going to be 2x grand prize winners, not that the grand prize had been improved!

It's nice to see that Blizzard added the taxes the winner would have to otherwise pay if they had won the grand prize initially.
But I would rather just take the money and cash it out for D R U G S!!!
I mean all what you have to do is just ( Login and finish daily quest ) ?
If only I didn't live in a third world country like Australia and was actually eligible to have a chance.
Yeah sux aye :/
