Game Improvements and Bug Fixes
Ethereal Conjurer will now function correctly and will no longer lock the game state when played.
You're playing freeze mage right?
1950 dust by just disenchanting extra copies. It's always a good idea to keep the extra cards until the release of next expansion.
dam should have thought about that... guess I'll do it next time.
I'd argue it's worth to disenchant some if you need the dust at that particular moment, I certainly don't regret disenchanting my stuff because I had a lot of fun with the cards I crafted in the meantime. Still 1000 dust tho.
The idea is not to disenchant when you don't need the dust. It shouldn't stop you enjoying the game. Till a few expansions ago, I automatically disenchanted all extra cards immediately after the release. I would never do that again now as the lack of clever preparation of the extensions leads Blizzard to do a lot of nerfs.
So the best advice is: if you do have enough dust to craft what you want to play, don't disenchant anything and if you really need dust then simply try to keep the extra cards where you really believe the power level might lead to a nerf...
This must actually be part of the reason that blizz extended duplicate protection to all cards
It's not female, it's a he.
How sure are you she's a he?
He never lies, but she never tells the truth.
He's a Draenei, as evidenced by his beard tentacles. Female Draenei's tendrils grow out from behind their ears.
Hm, OK, so we got a post for the pre-announcement, then another post for the actual announcement, then another post for the go-live... Keeps things busy I guess..
And the moral of the story is, don't disenchant your cards unless you need the dust NOW. You never know when your 5 unused copies of Bloodsworn Mercenary will come in handy.
Can you please answer to my private message?..
Glad for your 2100 dust, but how about some work?
If you can't resolve it - then please give me a contact of an employee that can do it
Glad I still haven't dusted my extras from Outland. Had Shadowjeweler, two golden Priestesses and a golden Bloodboil, plus a ton of extras for the rares and commons.
2100 dust, but I only disenchanted extras and kept any golden's I had too. Still not bad for doing nothing but hang on to these cards instead of dusting them already after opening.
But you still don't keep the cards which were nerfed/buffed... So you lose a card for full dust and you have to buy a card for full dust. Not really a "profit", like it would be if a card was moved to HoF, so imo nothing to brag about...
He meant "extras", keeping 2 copies now. Before he had, like myself. e.g. 10 copies of Crimson Sigil Runner.
Got it, I misunderstood at first - my bad.
I had my fun with Shadowjeweler Hanar, but I'm glad she was nerfed. Probably still needs a bit more honestly, but at least there are tech cards to play with.
I hit legend with Highlander Hunter, so I'm sad to see the Scavenger's Ingenuity nerf haha, but again, it was expected.
It is hardly called a nerf if it is so soft.
Golden dusted!
