Duels & Weekly Quests Server-Side Hotfix
Blizzard just announced a server-side hotfix for Duels and weekly quests as well as Balance Changes for the Duels game mode.
Quote from BlizzardHey everyone,
We’re currently deploying a hotfix that includes the following –
- Fixed a bug where Heroic Duels ratings were inaccurately set. Heroic Duels ratings have been reset to 0 for all players.
- Fixed a bug where Duels games were not contributing to class progress.
- Fixed a bug where some players were not receiving new Weekly Quests.
Duels Updates
Learn more about Duels Treasure pools here.
- Lunar Band has been removed from the Passive Treasure pool.
- From the Swamp moved from Passive pool 1 to pool 2
- Band of Bees moved from Passive Treasure pool 2 to pool 2 Ultra Rare.
- Phaoris' Blade moved from Active Treasure pool 1 to pool 2.
- Phaoris' Blade mana adjusted from 4 to 5.
- Grimmer Patron moved from Active Treasures pool 1 to pool 2.
- Wax Rager moved from Active Treasures pool 2 to pool 2 Ultra Rare.
These fixes will take place on the server-side, so you will not need to download anything if you’ve already updated to the 19.0 patch.
Lunar band was my favorite passive, but I fully admit that having three deathrattle related passives was a bit centralizing. Oh well...
Hopefully in the next patch, to make everyone happy, is to add some gold to daily quests (silimar to before), even if only minor gold gain (40-60 gold, along side the rewards track) for FTP players who cannot scale quickly the xp required for gold. Experienced players with a good collection can get the rewards xp easily (to scale the rewards track per season) by completing the achievements, however for those FTP players with a small collection, it will take them forever to scale the rewards track by playing mediocre (if not sub-iptimal decks). They need the gold early in their HS journey, so that they can buy varied packs for their decks. 2 cents. ^^
And I thought I got unlucky this expansion wow... For real tho, 65 continous packs of Darkmoon Faire without a single legendary? This is scam dude what the hell. I mean for me it was the worst pack opening ever regarding the legendary ratio, only 5 ones in 181 packs. And after the first one each of them took at least 32 packs to get... Introducing a new and completely reward system alongside reducing the chance of getting legendaries is literally INSANE and just disgusting. Who is managing Hearthstone, I mean do they want to kill it or something? Horrible, just horrible.
To everyone who is experiencing the same as the dude I quoted: I feel you and I hope your next packs get back to normal or even better legendary rates.
So I got a response to my ticket from blizzard ... “ there's no way to get quests this week. You should start earning them again next week.”
In other words, forget the xp if you didn’t get quests this week
I didn't get any dailies today - weeklies have been working ok for me. It's all part of the extra randoms HS is keen on :)
You are not the only one. Many players didn’t get any weekly quests this week. The announcement is pretty much incorrect as nothing has been fixed, no one got any quests as a result of the hotfix
Yep, and completely ignore the fact that Mage has one of the most snowballish hero powers in the game that makes early game impossible to play for many classes.
Ok so let me get this straight or please if someone can explain, we received the reward changes on the 12th of November, we received 3 weekly quests that we completed now on a weekly basis meaning each week or the 7th day we should receive quests, right?!
so now we are on the 19th and i didn't receive any weekly quests, when i check the tab of the quests, they say that the weeklies will be added after 4 days, is this the glitch they are trying to fix, or everyone is having the same sh@#$y luck like mine?
I've played about 10 rounds of duels so far and I honestly haven't had much fun in any one of them... Wether you win or lose it always feels like you cheated or got cheated by the system, more luck than skill.
They could fix the bug that happened with the pity timer, opened 103 packs and took 2 legendary shit and got 65 packs without taking legendary, countless players complaining about it and you don't give an answer, disgusting company!
Same... I opend over 120 packs and almost nothing...
play arena my boi
This mode is From the Swamp
I see there's no mention about the missing cardbacks.
I know it's not a major issue, like the battle pass debacle, but god damn, I'm not the only one missing card backs since the update.
Happy about these changes to be honest. Surprised they completely removed the death rattle one but it was extremely OP especially with the Hunter hero power that triggers it too.
Wait you guys are still playing? Pathetic losers...
and you are still on a FORUM... what are you then when you dont even PLAY the game xD
And how about...
Fixing yogg freezing the game (to opponent)?
Fixing Silas not corrupting? Well, keep that actually :p
Fixing BG when minions start moving to wherever the hell they want, then cleave on 4th minion hits 2nd and 7th all of the sudden?
Or just... fix the damn animations because they Still take long time? Anything longer than 3 seconds shouldn't count towards turn timer, no matter the mode.
Yeah, zero reasons to play this shit format.
Rewards are hilarious..For 7 victories I've got one pack+70gold+40 dust ..that's just a little bit more than Break-even
