The Dalaran Heist - Adventure Launches May 16
Blizzard has announced new details on the upcoming Great Dalaran Heist adventure.
- Launches May 16!
- Wings cost 700 gold each, first is free. Whole adventure should be $20 USD.
- Like Dungeon Run and Monster Hunt in format but loads of more content / features.
- Challenge defenders of Dalaran that sit between you and your job.
- The second chapter can be purchased right away after completing the free first chapter.
- The chapters after 1 & 2 will be unlocked on a weekly basis.
- Hero Powers get unlocked through mini-quests such as Freeze 30 minions or Draw 100 cards.
- You can remove cards from your deck at a Dalaran Tavern during your run as well as modify your deck with special gold coins.
- Each wing has a special passive effect active. Anomaly mode makes these randomized.
Next week, on May 14 & 15, there will be a special event where some pros get to play the adventure early.
Chapters
- Dalaran Bank
- The Violet Hold - Imprisoned Minions, join the fight later
- Streets of Dalaran
- The Underbelly - Swaps Attack and Health of all minions
- ???

I like that guy, he is much better than that other creepy guy
i'm concerned about the whole purchase thing. we aren't getting gold or cards out of this so i'm definitely not buying anything. my question is am i going to be able to play all 5 wings after enough time has passed or am i going to be stuck with only one wing because i won't give blizz money?
You can buy each chapter for 700 gold. If you don't want to do that or spend real money then you'll be stuck with the single free chapter.
In short you get 15 Shadow packs, one golden classic pack and the free legendary minion Zalye (the golden version I think). With each wing you'll unlock these rewards little by little. If you don't purchase any wing after the first one, you'll be stuck with it indefinitely. I feel 2800 gold in total is way to much for the whole experience, but it's more reasonable with real money.
tournament mode died for this
no it did not. please stop saying that.
thanks for doing shit content release tactic like in WoW - 1 chapter of content in a week. we were waiting for a goddamn month, and that's what we getting! honestly we will get full expasion in a 2 months from addon release! that's crazy!
This. When he said that "[chapters 3-5] will be released over the following weeks" I almost threw my mouse at the screen! It looks like they put in a lot of effort, but good lord Blizzard taking two full months to FULLY roll out an expansion is the height of bullshit. I know I'll play it, but the hype train has derailed right into a fucking river gorge...
They told us the release schedule many months ago. The timing isn't a surprise to anyone. The content is completely separate from the PvP game and won't affect it in any way. There's really no reason to be upset by any of this. If you want to make a statement, you can refuse to buy it. No? Didn't think so.
So no release next week? Lame, now we have to wait like 2 weeks while streamers can start playing much earlier.
Just writing useless comment or you don't know when is 16th of may?
It looks promising!
Sound pretty interesting. Looking forward to play it next week :). I like that they put more effort in pve and it becomes even better.
How many chapters and how much each will cost? I need to start saving coins...
700 gold per one. 4 payed chapters.
Not gonna lie: it looks really promising
This seems fun, can't wait to try it out :)
Blizzard logic of hyping up tactics thinking we are more likely to purchase when we're in that state of mind. Pfff its a double edge sword spoiling the content players might feels they seen the adventure concept and feels nothing special and not spending on it.
There are the achivements,can you stop crying now?
