It’s expansion day and time to open some packs! I had opened 65 packs the week before for the Pre-Release Tavern Brawl but today I had 99 packs to open (9 free + 90 bought with gold). Here are my pack opening results:
Preorder legendaries: Kil’jaeden, Talgath
Pack 3: Exarch Othaar
Pack 29: Velen, Leader of the Exiled
Pack 35: GOLDEN Xor’toth, Breaker of Stars
Pack 41: Farseer Nobundo
Pack 43: Askara
Pack 75: Exarch Maladaar
Pack 114: The Ceaseless Expanse
Pack 147: Spore Empress Moldara
Pack 148: GOLDEN Saruun
Pack 163: Exarch Hataaru
I had some bad drop rates with 30+ packs in between legendaries which was saved by 3 legendaries in the last 17 or so packs. Overall, 10 legendaries (2 golden) opened by pack 163 which is above average.
Also had some PIP and WW packs to open:
PIP 6: Raylla, Sand Scupltor (duplicate)
Standard packs didn’t have anything special (2 Golden 22 Regular)
5 Mage packs
Pack 4: Norgannon (duplicate)
Turns out I had all the mage legendaries in Standard already so these could have possibly been saved until next expansion
How were your pack openings?

Do you need to update the game or something?

I opened 250 packs, got a single golden legendary and no signature legendaries and am missing 5 legendaries which in itself seems pretty alright.
Basically opened a good number of legendaries but none of them are any kind of special rarity which kinda sucks. I was expecting that I’d open more than a single golden legendary and at least one signature legendary.

Blizzard lowered odds of legendary from 1:30 to 1:40… plus they raised the price of the expansion by 20%. We are looking at a price-gouge of 40% with this set. Not to mention the deleted cards out of packs I already opened that were deleted from our collections in previous sets (the borrowed rotation cards is not an excuse). The auto shard button shouldn’t shard cards that are ‘barrowed’ but then people wouldn’t buy the same cards twice adding to more profits.
Lastly the introduction of rewards track and reducing shards of some cards to 15 instead of 30 have all added to the impossibility of F2P.
Bill Gates is the worst thing to happen to this game. I for one will never spend a dime again. Forever lost customer until greed is fixed. People don’t mind 2%-5% increases a year but 50%-100% will not be tolerated.

I didn’t get many leggos, but I got one signature leggo for some reason. This time I figured I should open 10 golden packs anyway even if the pitty legendary is already hit because why not: having gold sitting on a big pile isn’t optimal for new cards (mainly because you may be dusting refunds later).

That angered me a little. Can we do something about it? Probably not; the game will sooner die I guess; it’s been like that since Activision.

They haven’t changed any regular legendary odds, not sure where you are getting this information. It’s on average 1 every 20, with guaranteed 1 every 40.
Again, nothing disenchants for 15 or 30.
Commons disenchant for 5, rares for 20.

Haven’t purchased any packs yet but the free pack from the tavern brawl rewarded me with a Shaman legendary. Farseer Nobundo. So that’s a good sign, I guess?
Update - After buying 60 packs with gold:
I got these interesting legends
Xor’toth
Exarch Hartaaru
Kil’Jaedan
The Ceaseless Expanse

Pack 170: Gorm the Worldeater
Pack 174: The 8 Hands from Beyond
Level 20 rewards track legendary: K’ure, the Light Beyond
That makes 12 legendaries in 174 GDB packs or 1 every 14.5 packs.
