Duplicate Protection in Season Rewards Chest Not Working
Blizzard has announced that they are aware of the duplicate protection not working with the Season Rewards Chest at the end of the month and they will solve the problem before next season's appearance.
Quote from BlizzardHey everyone,
We’ve seen reports of players receiving duplicate cards from their April Rewards Chest. We’ve investigated this and determined that duplicate protection was not applied to individual cards in chest rewards, just packs.
For the May Rewards Chest, we will be implementing an improvement that does the duplicate check on the chest level, which will result in all chest rewards being covered by the new protection rules.
It doesn't matter for most players because it's easy to have all common and rares, what I would REALLY LOVE is if they would put WILD cards if you already have all the standard ones.
Non wild players will still just DE em, and us wild dudes are gonna go WILD!
imagine gettin whole season chest for wild that would be nice
if I were in blizzard I'd hire you just for this idea alone
I like this idea. It's a win-win.
It incentivizes people to try out wild. If not, they can dust for the same as dups anyway. Only potential downside it won't allow more chances to get dup nerfed cards for extra dust.
Edit: typos
How do they always get away with this, every time they add something it's bugged. If they screw up like this they have to give us something.
They're giving us the middle finger. What do you mean?
They do it all the time just open your eyes!!
Interesting that cards are not anymore golden. But I guess this is because of increase rewards and card packs.
Interesting, that it was mentioned everywhere, yet people are still surprised.
It's better this way. It helps you get your collection faster.
And let me guess, Blizzard will not compensate us for their bugs and all the things they are doing wrong years now :)
Not only the fact that the duplication rule was not in place, but it also amuses me how uneven is the weight distribution when the algorithm picks up the cards for rewards. Seems like a good chunk of players got like 2 rares and 2 or 3 copies of each. Given the number of possible rare cards you can get, it is just stupid or rigged how the distribution is currently configured.
Exactly, it's incredible how many duplicates I keep getting for years. With AoO I also mostly receive Paladin, Hunter and Warrior cards, of course the classes I don't play at all. And as I keep getting only commons, I can't craft what I would like to play. I even got to legend so I hoped to get some nice cards, but no, pnly cheap duplicate cards of classes I don't play.
You don't say, I got 4 of the same card :) hooray
what is i have all rares from standard and disechant a card? will i get it on my chest?
No. When you get the card the first time you will "have" it forever in the duplicate rule
If you already got all the rares, regardless that you kept them or not, you will get any random rare with equal probability
And what about arena rewards? Couple times i got same rare cards that i have and i didnt have all rares from that set.
its not bugged its becouse you got all cards at the same time so sure you get duped if the card you got 0 off so since you got them at the same time there gonna be extra of the same cards
I legit got 3 of the same rare card and then 2 of the same rare card in my rewards for legend. 5 total cards, but only 2 different ones. Woo hoo...
