Classic Pack Opening Re-Enabled - Dust Refunds
You can once again open Classic packs. For people that pulled the wrong cards from their packs while opening previously will get a full Dust refund for those cards!
Quote from BlizzardWe’re aware of an issue where players could still receive the 16 cards that were added to the Classic set later in Hearthstone’s history from Classic and Golden Classic packs between when the 20.0 patch was released (3/25) up until shortly after expansion launch (3/30).
We’ll be identifying players who received these cards during this five-day window, and issuing Arcane Dust equivalent to a full refund for each card from the following list in the coming days:
• Icicle
• Tome of Intellect
• Call of the Void
• Pilfer
• Siegebreaker
• Gift of the Wild
• Righteousness
• Brightwing
• High Inquisitor Whitemane
• Barrens Stablehand
• SI:7 Infiltrator
• Arcane Devourer
• Kul Tiran Chaplain
• Scarlet Subjugator
• Shadow Word: Ruin
• Natalie Seline
We’ll update here once these dust refunds have been distributed.
Yeay, those 20 packs were worth it, got dust to craft four new legendaries and keep the old cards that I wanted.
Wow now I am glad I bought those packs and got Whitemane.
PSA: Ysera is eligible for the full dust disenchant value and it's not documented in the 20.0 patch notes. So make sure to disenchant her if you have no use for her anymore or have extras.
But only when showing Wild cards in your collection. 400 in Classic list.
Hm, no full refund for me, no matter in which category I look her up.
(edit) Restarted the client and the new season started, which also allows the full refund.
i had waited to open my packs until after the patch. Because i was missing Molten Giant, but i did not pull any in 22 packs? (i had all other epics)
Have i misunderstood, you cant pull the giants from classic packs now?
Molten was Hall of Famed. Maybe that is the case. I would never count on pulling golden cards...
Yeah, since Syl and Rag was HOF too, and we can pull them, i assumed you could pull the giants now?
You should have been able to but Blizzard is not addressing that part of the issue. They are only compensating people for getting Wild only cards in the Classic packs; not for wasting packs on duplicates when the Hall of Fame cards should have been included in the Classic packs. That’s why I called this response a half measure. They only fixed the issue several hours into the expansion.
Blizzard doesn’t care that people saved, bought, and opened Classic packs to get Hall of Fame cards without that actually being a possibility. Yes, that’s clearly a violation of consumer laws since these purchases were advertised to include Hall of Fame cards. Why would Blizzard care though? They tossed the Classic Set into Wild without compensating people who invested in their “Evergreen” promise.
i think there was a bug that HOF cards were still not in classic packs after patch 20.0
They way over refunded though, I got 27 000 dust. There's no way I opened 27k dust worth of like 5 wrong cards in 50 packs.
Guys I have a question before rotation I had a golden king mukla and golden onixia now isn't disenchant them for their dust anyone knows if there is a bug of compensation thank you in advance
Go build a classic deck, and look up onyxia and mukla from there. The core cards aren't dustable, but they're also not playable in classic. Idk how it works for other game modes like Tavern Brawl.
Personally I’m happy with their compensation. These are gold cards that are intended to be used in the new classic mode. Now they’re giving me a dust refund on the cards that won’t be useable in that mode. Awesome! It sounds like I still technically own the cards to use in wild. And on top of that I can use the massive amount of dust I get from golden cards towards creating a couple legendary’s to use in Classic?
if you were “unlucky” enough to crack one of these golden cards, this is blizzard essentially giving you 1-2 free legendary’s for the trouble. And you keep the cards anyways. I think that’s awesome.
I got 27 000 dust, so more than 1 legendary
I got a golden King Krush from a Classic pack that was awarded from Tavern Brawl before expansion launch.
I opened this pack on the night of March 30th, and I found out that I cannot disenchant it. It is not on the above list, is it not eligible for dust refund? I thought it is a Classic card becoming a Core card.
Not eligible for a refund, cause it can be played in wild.
Go build a classic hunter deck, you can disenchant the real King Krush from there. The core card isn't playable in classic though, so keep that in mind.
After submitting a support ticket about this and being told pretty much nothing, ai lost hope and disenchanted the cards. Does that mean that I won't get the dust back? XD damn it...
I got some of these cards right after the expansion does it mean I will get dust?
