Gold has gone from being a nice bonus from drafting to being horrible.

Grinding arena is horrible in my opinion, I don't know how people can do it. No way I am buying gold at the current exchange rate.

I have basically given up on the game until set 3 comes out, hopefully chest opening comes too as I have a lot of chests, then I will be able to see if they are worth it.

On the plus side I am now freerolling as I have cashed out the money I put in. Makes a nice change from being a massive money drain like magic. Not sure how long I can sustain it.

Yeah selling things for gold/buying gold is pointless right now. Gold is obviously at its highest peak value right now (or fast approaching it). Once the game has more avenues for generating gold and more players overall gold should go back to reasonable levels.

I've always felt that the arena gave away too little gold. When you could get gold from pvp it wasn't hard to get tens of thousands of gold. Now you have to grind arena for ~6-7.5k a run. I've always thought an arena run should give out at least ~15k gold.

Set 1 packs are down to 16.5k gold and up to 178p.

Set 2 packs are basically the same at 17k gold and 178p.

here comes the next gold sink: extended arts

wow this art is so ****** amazing

My quest for 600k gold is at 237k. I'm guessing I have 2-3 more weeks max. I think I've sold a total of 2 packs for gold, they are down to ~15k gold now and there is lots of competitively since they announced unlocking Extended Art with gold. I've basically just been grinding arena, using mono ruby I can clear the arena in 45 mins with a max of 1 defeat. Still haven't encountered Uruunaz.

If anyone wants Set 1 packs I have 20 I'll sell for 15k gold each. They currently sell for 172p each.

The card is amazing all round. Seems like it could be a first pick in draft if you dont open a bomb. The ability to control your draws is huge.

esp with the new "prophecy" interactions
really looking forward to set3, should be launched within next 2-3 weeks

Hmm, sounds like you have more faith than history should dictate.

I would guess Set 3 hits sometime in June. I wouldn't be surprised if we get a release date in today's update but I also won't be surprised if we don't.

Constructed VIP tournaments this weekend with new AA cards from Set 3.

Selling Set 1 packs for 14k gold if anyone wants some.

last weeks friday update mentioned they were "saving the best for last: multishard cards." my guess is we get another day of spoilers today and *hopefully* an idea of release dates either today or next week

havent played in months,whats gold for now?
I used it all to upgrade chests when it was useless.
not reinstalling the game yet but I keep checking this thread D

There are a set of 6 AA common cards you can buy for gold. Cards are 25k each so it is 600k gold for a playset. They have been available for ~2 months and have said they are removing them soon (two or three weeks?).




They also announced that you unlock Extended Art on all the cards by buying Stardust. Stardust can also be found in chests/loot drops/etc. EA is unlocked on a per individual card basis. This will be the main gold sink in the game.

My streak of going 1-3 and playing 4 rounds for nothing in at least one VIP tournament per weekend continues.

well at least you got a chance on it, was looking forward to playtest my new metabreaker deck real hard just to realize i dont have any more vip tickets left :/

oh and regarding gold: with all the goldsinks cze managed to actually give it a decent value, besides plat its a second currency you cannot buy directly for $$$, making the market an even nicer playground

We are basically at peak gold value right now. When we finally get more faucets it will drop. Its about 3x the value it should be at imo.

I never say glhf. It has become so automatic that it is completely meaningless. But since the chat upgrade you don't get notifications that your opponent is talking so I just leave the chat minimized all the time.

I do love the obv ragequits though when its turn 3 and you have 2 troops out to their 0, they play a troop, you remove it, and insta-concede at 17 life.

I will say glhf if I am in the mood or know the player. I also can get a salty when I lose. I have told people that they didn't deserve to win after they make a particularly bad misplay. However, I would say that to anyone. **This play was attacking into a Gront, then using Pa during combat. Followed by using Crazed Squirrel Titan to kill Gront (all which could have been done pre-combat to win).

I thought that Hearthstone did it wrong by removing chat, but it is probably the most brilliant thing that they did. You can still timer people and annoying stuff like that. However as stated, the current version of Hex chat might as well not even exist.

Friend sent me the log. Name removed to protect the guilty
