Heroes of the Storm 2.0

[Nerraw]

weird i got no qoutes or mentions (EDIT, just whent back, no no one gave me an answer)
also yes current does, it gives us a veteran reward chest each 100 levels that we have before 2.0 comes out doesent it?

It's for every 100 levels you have after the conversion.

Post 362(thevoicefromwithin) and post 377(Nerraw) both answered your question. As did mine. Current player level does not mean anything. Player level 40 entitles you to a stimpack when 2.0 goes live, then it does absolutely nothing else, and your NEW player level(as well as the reward boxes you get from it) is based ONLY on the level of your heroes. Forget about the "player level 40" you have now, it is GONE in 2.0, and it does absolutely nothing in regards to your player level after 2.0, with how many loot boxes you get, or anything else, other than the 30 day stimpack you get as a reward for having it.

What Stormcall said above me.

In regards to what level you will have after, I cannot say. Though going by my own experience and where I'll end up, I'm assuming you will end up somewhere in the 400-500 range. Maybe a bit more if you have a lot of level 10+ heroes.

look about it? (still hero level 360) looks like it might be possible to reach 400? I am thinking of this weekend playing some of the low level heros i have like auriel and zuljin

hey nerraw
question i asked earlier but no one gave me an answer
i have hero level 360
and player level 40
will that bring me to 400 after? or do i have to grind 40 hero levels this week in hopes to get the 4th vetern chest >#>

I'm 365 myself. When 2.0 comes out I'll be going down to 312~.
I believe they don't count level 1 in the total hero level anymore, so you instantly lose 65~ (however many heroes there are) off your current total.
But it may be different for you because you have a couple of heroes above 10.
Personally I'd grab the link I listed above earlier (on this page) and plug in your stats, according to the creator this will be the legit values post 2.0]


But no, you won't hit 400 unless you do some serious grinding until live hits.

Without having your exact XP numbers I can't say for sure, but it looks like you'll be just shy of level 400 at this point. Putting in some time on your lower level heroes over the weekend should push you over the 400 mark.

Just found an updated spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets...UhacrwSwA/copy

Insert the appropriate values for every hero, and it'll calculate your total level in 2.0.

Looks right!

Hmm, I think I've read something about this, but can't find it now. Will gold for achieved levels be given retroactive? Thinking of the 500 gold every 5 levels etc.

Ie: Will my level 5 heroes all grant me 500 gold retroactively (again?) and will my level 10 heroes grant 500 gold and a hero specific chest retroactively?

Or is it just chests that are given out retroactively?

The specific rewards for leveling up will not be given retroactively. You'll be given the veteran reward chests as listed previously, and a 30-day stimpack if you've reached player level 40 before the patch drops. That's it.

Oh, so JUST the veteran chests? I see.. Thanks! That means I have a whooping 2 MAYBE 3 chests to look forward to

You will get more, see this: http://eu.battle.net/heroes/en/blog/...ate-04-04-2017

I alone will receive 6 Veteran (If not 7), 55 Epic and 5 basic Chests as I have Hero level 570.

[DesoPL]

You get 3 heroes in the Support/Specialist pack, 4 in the Tanks/Bruisers, 3 in the Assassins, and 4 in the Flex. So for the greatest hero value per gems, Tanks or Flex is the way to go, BUT, the Flex pack includes the Vikings which are...definitely not to everyone's taste, so that might lower the value of Flex for you. So if I was you, I'd go Tanks/Bruisers since I despise Vikings. You get Varian, Ragnaros, Dehaka, and Samuro which is a pretty decent selection IMO.

When i think about it, you actually got right. In fact also, i enjoy playing Dehaka when is in rotation, so it's time to get him.

Ah alright, then I'm happy again! Free lewts is always fun.. :P

What plan should one have for hte last games? I'll be working towards one more veteran chest, but would my best bet be leveling lvl 1 heroes to level 5, or what are peoples opinions?

How many levels do you need? I'd say 1-4 is fine but try not to get any to level 5, leveling heroes that are already 5 or higher to level 8 is also okay. As is leveling heroes at level 9 or higher.

Missing around 15(+-10) levels or so roughly (calculated from memory).

Why do you advice against leveling a hero to level 5? The new reward for 5 hero levels i 500g, which is the same as today, or am I missing something?

Thanks

Never mind, realised a chest is given for every hero level in 2.0.

[RH92]

Does it even matter to level Heroes to certain level now?

As far as I understand, they are making levelling linear. So any experience gained now should translate into overall Hero level without regards for actual level number on specific Hero. In an essence, your account 'experience' (aka level) is basically your overall experience gained across all the Heroes.

That means gaining 110k experience on level 1 Genji (He will reach level 2 from it) is in the end same as gaining 110k experience on level 12 Greymane.

Or am I missing something?

That should be how it works, ye.

Yeah I guess level 5 does give 500g now aswell, whoops. It's as you said though, post 2.0 you get 1 chest per level so if you're 15 levels off I would just try not to level any heroes anymore, you'll miss out on 1 rare, 1 epic and 13 common chests if you hold on just 4 days. Which, imo, outweigh the 1 legendary chest.

I'm an idiot and level 5 doesn't matter but level 10 gives you an additional 500g and a hero specific chest which is rewarded in addition to the normal/rare/epic chest you get for reaching the next player level. So if you're trying to reach the next threshhold for a veteran reward it's best to avoid those since they'll give 2 chests post 2.0.
