Hmm so you will get that one each week and then a random one aswell?
2 Random ones. Which can be re-rolled and are all of same xp.
Ahh nice so you get 3 weekly quests each week?
i just came to the conclusion that i won 3 duel matches and i reached level 8, went 8/2 without looking at my progression.
this morning i am at 4-0 and now i look and i am still level 8…
A lot of stuff got mess up for this game. Didn’t like the old leveling up exp unsure how much it give player vs player. For the ai it was hardly enough.
I tend to look at the big picture and try not let the bias that comes with the truth of this game to blind me. If I allow it I won’t have fun playing knowing full well where the state of this game is heading. Making the most out of it is my approach.
Yup how much I can gather. They will re-roll if you don’t finish any by the week and you get 3 new ones.
Yeah the first 8 levels seem to be basically given away, I was also lvl 8 when I thought about looking into the reward track after completing first set of quests.
The calculations for xp gain look concerning though
this morning i am at 4-0 and now i look and i am still level 8…
Yep! It’s annoying too because I just used to play BG for fun but now I find myself looking at the dumb xp progression.
The psychological hooks are getting in my BRAAAIIIINNNNNNN…
…but srsly Blizz I ain’t payin…

Great attitude, wish I saw more like it!
For me, they introduced Battlegrounds and I’ve sunk about 150 hours in to it, for free. I can’t complain I’m not getting value for money (as in tons of entertainment for no money).
Yeah it seems that you must complete your quests to even level up, but they are still way to low to some other folks here and going beyong level 50 is made almost impossible.
i ran through my progression in total collected cards, and for almost all the expansions i miss just 1 card for each class to have the full collection ( except the legendary’s ofcourse )
Yeah it’s not looking good, the numbers on their survey apparently was much higher too.
I will play through the expansion to see if the system still works out for F2P but the XP required seems huge and will make considerably less gold compared to previously.
Gut feeling…it’s probably end of the road for me.
But thats what the Battle Pass is for. Pay $20 extra on top on what might have already spent on packs to get less value that you used to get for free with the old system. They call this phenomena inflation if only they followed this in the actual game and instead of power creeping every set you got less and less value per mana every set.

The system has clearly been designed to:
- make people play more (as play time awards xp) and
- nudge F2P to consider spending (by slightly reducing realistic gold earnings)
I only really play Battlegrounds so my gold goes on Arena when I feel like it but…
At the end of the day if you love constructed (child/adult) then I’d argue the pre-release pack deals are value for money (I’d wager a parent would buy it for a child if they clearly LOVED the game and it bought the parents 1-2 hours quiet time a night).
As an adult, it’s a clear time to value to entertainment consideration.

Not great if true and maybe they’re willing to weather a few months of complaints to make it the ‘standard.’
make people play more (as play time awards xp) and
I know it was actually mentioned somewhere though may I ask you instead?
Do you get XP just for playing a match? Even if you lose?
If so, maybe some bots might be ok. To just let these bot lads to enjoy the game while you sleep

Yep, as a test I started a Battlegrounds match, bought 1 minion and went afk (as I saw ppl discuss the possibility on reddit).
I died in 8 minutes and got about 20-30exp finishing last (obviously haha).

That’s the concern of a few people I’ve spoken to so far but yes, you don’t need to ‘win’ for xp.
I didn’t even realize our win history disappeared. That sucks! That was the only one that mattered lol
I mean you are speaking from Blizzard’s POV which is pretty clear with the new system.
For most paying customers, the new system is great but I think majority of the playerbase are still pretty casual which will get shafted unless they are willing to pay every expansion.
I don’t believe you understand how F2P games work, paying should always be an option and players should not feel pressurized to spend at every turn, even if they LOVED the game.

Well I was replying to your comment that suggested you hadn’t considered Blizz’s POV so…
I don’t believe you understand how F2P games work
I’m fairly sure I do, they’re ‘free to play’ and you pay if you want to.
paying should always be an option
Which it is here…the track is there for 4 months and clearly shows what’s on offer, it isn’t going anywhere, grind 'till your hearts content…
and players should not feel pressurized to spend at every turn, even if they LOVED the game.
Considering the next 4 months worth of ‘reward track’ is plainly laid out for us I’d say we’re hardly being ‘pressured at every turn’ lol.
This is no different than Clash of Clans, you pay if you want to speed things up (gems) or you grind and ‘waste’ your time if you don’t F2P.
note I’m not making excuses for the new system but at the same time I’m not going to enable people crying about the grind while getting free stuff.
My first impression is that they put back a lot of the ANNOYING quests that take up a lot of time. “Win X games…” are annoying. A while back they changed it so the quests were more like, “Play X games as a Warrior” and things where you didn’t have to win games all the time. But so far the bulk of the daily and weekly quests are “Win X games” in Arena, or Ranked, or Duels, or whatever.
Having to win games to complete quests takes a lot more time and makes the game a lot more sweaty. I don’t like them. Blizzard needs to dump all these “Win X” quests and change them to “PLAY X” quests. If they don’t then the game is going to get way sweatier than before and these quests are going to feel much more grindy.
Put me down on the list of “This sucks … not a fan” for the new system so far.
I know I’ll be using the reroll button more than ever before.
They need to give us more rerolls. I have one quest for Arena, which I hate, and one for BGs, which I hate. I already used my reroll to get rid of Play 50 Corrupt cards, which I can’t possibly complete because the packs are still locked, so I rerolled it.
STOP TELLING US WHAT WE WANT TO PLAY!! WE KNOW WHAT WE LIKE AND WHAT WE DON’T LIKE!!
. They call this phenomena inflation
Inflation in a product that doesn’t really exist and costs nothing in terms of materials to produce… that’s rich.
