With this incentive playing the Tavern Brawl will be even more lucrative! Who doesn't love a good card reveal?! Not to mention all these rewards:

Legendary Quests
A new Legendary Fire Fest-E.V.I.L. quest* will be unlocked each day for the first 7 days of the event in addition to your normal daily quests. These new quests will reward you with either a card pack from one of the current standard sets, or a hefty sum of Gold!
These quests will only be granted up to the conclusion of the event on July 31.
* Legendary quests will replace an existing normal quest if your quest log is full, so we recommend that you have a spot open when this event goes live.
Obviously the double gold will be missed, but this event feels more engaging and the range of activities is greater and seems more fun than 'just do your daily quests and get more gold for them'. This feels like an actual event rather than just a time-limited bonus. Me like!
How long before people start whining about how they just want the regular quest that gives them 50 gold rather then the pack itself they would otherwise spend that 50 gold towards.
Wow! If this is as good as it looks...(I'm super excited!!!)
I REALLY want to know what would happen in actual World of Warcraft lore if the Floating City of Dalaran just straight up crashed into Blackrock Mountain. That would be one hell of a WoW expansion.
can some1 tell me what are the rewards from fireside gathering?tnx
It goes towards the community challenge to reveal Saviors of Uldum cards. Each time you defeat Ragnaros in a Fireside Gathering it'll count as 500 defeats towards the challenge.
No double gold kinda stinks, but this still looks like an extremely fun and inventive event. Great brawl designs here!
Before the fire event quest replaced your regular quest, this gives you an extra so it's kind of like extra gold, I'm more irritated I'll get a Witchwood pack since that set is crap but dust is still better than gold imo.
Yeah I'm all set with getting Witchwood packs, but at least it's free dust for SoU. I hope the rewards for these legendary quests pay out as well as double gold.
What happens to the legendary quests if I don't log in in the first week but do so before the end of the month?
It says you receive quests for the first "7 days" so I imagine it's the 1st week only. You'll probably have to log in and complete it each day.
Where is Ragnaros?
Oh I found him with 15.000 health :O
But does he have legs? monkaHmm
