• Tier 7 Column 2 - Increase the number of Champions you can have active at once by 1.
• Tier 8 Column 1 - All new Relics are able to grant a Rank increase to a second Artifact Trait.

PSA: Be Careful with your Essences
It's no different then any other daily quest. Once you get the set number of items and turn in the quest the next time you pick up the quest the overflow isn't there..it's reset.
I can see this being an issue in a few situations, specifically around Nighthold progression and going over the 50 "cap" by a moderate amount during your normal raid time.

We will send this feedback over to the developers and see what's going on.

I think it's typical for quests like this to work in this way, but in this case, when looking at how raids progress and LFR tiers and such, it seems people could end up saving 70-80 at a time without realizing it which could be devastating. (Blue Tracker / Official Forums)

First! /10 char

These new legendarys are strange. They only have stats and no special ability?

As with everything on the PTR, they may not be complete.

Best part of this update -- the Lunar event's Dragon costume!

GL farming 30k resources, I have 4k.

[grexly75]

GL farming 30k resources, I have 4k.

By the time this patch comes out you will be swimming in resources.. My main has about that many now and using them on bonus roll coins atm..

[Averrix]

GL farming 30k resources, I have 4k.

I have 70k on my main atm, it's not hard to get resources.

[Suggs]

I have 54k resources saved up because world quests seems to be the only thing i do in this game as of late.

[derpkitteh]

resonant fel? i knew the broken shore felt really timeless isle-like.

can't wait till it's live.

[Noix]

gez 30k res is nothing.. i got 150k res is so easy to farm!

The guy who maked HeroesNexus should feel bad for closing it... Another reason to hate Hearthstone.

Yeah, I don't get why FluxFlashor didn't put out a call for new webmasters for Overpwn and HeroesNexus. I know the position would be unpaid, but certainly they could have found volunteers.

Unless the backend for those sites is just too expensive to maintain with the amount of hits they get. But then, if anything is to blame for low traffic it's that they weren't updating regularly or engaging with the community the way MMO-Champion and Hearthpwn do.

[kamuimac]

hahaah 50k resource - guess they have to push sheeps into doin those wq

[Zabatakis]

I feel like there is no real choice to be made between a new 30% minion and another champion.

[Logwyn]

I feel like there is no real choice to be made between a new 30% minion and another champion.

I can't think of why I would choose the new troop type over having another champ to run another quest with. Seems almost a no brainer to take the extra champion. Though I still think that you should be able to use all of them at a time but that's another story....

I don't get the Call of the Scarab mini event. But I guess its a me thing and don't see the point of the fight for a faction anymore thing as it just feels forced now.

[Super Kami Dende]

GL farming 30k resources, I have 4k.

I mostly avoid OR WQ's yet have over 20k on my main after buying my alts their AK compendiums.

OR is not hard in the slightest to obtain.

this is not diablo....


I don't care if this is diablo team who works on WoW. If I wanted to play diablo, i had play diablo.

For the people talking about swimming in resources, that's true if you just play one or two characters. If you have 4, 5, 6 or more and they're all swimming then I'd like to know how you're doing it because I'm doing something terribly wrong.
