Ah nuts - I've been buying packs as I go. What am I going to want those coins for?

Well, that's what KidScaper is doing and he's having fun. So enjoy. I saw somewhere that you're better off saving and doing arenas, but keep doing what you're doing, if you're enjoying it.

Arena is only worth it w.r.t. gold if you can get 3 wins, and you are only better off if you get more than 5 wins. I would recommend that new players just get packs, especially basic packs since they will be useable forever with Standard coming soon.

Good info, thanks. Should I be saving up the 700 gold to go do the campaign missions?

I'm going to guess vegie says "no." The solo missions get you some good stuff, but you'll do better by playing more games against people, doing your dailies, and getting regular packs. The solo missions can wait.

Now let's see if I've correctly anticipated vegie.

Been playing halo wars on xb1 (x360 emulator) since it hit the backwards compatible list. Played some online as well as a 3v3 custom game with some friends, got the Brute covenant leader to three star veterancy. He was laughing in the face of two armies of ODSTs and canny shell scorpions. He says "good times," right?

Reading this thread has gotten me back into Hearthstone. I re-installed it last night and played my first games in well over a year.

I actually got in when it was closed beta and did pretty well in the early days getting as high as rank 9. But now I have no clue whats happening.

Still a great, fun game. Just need to re-acquaint myself with it.

[Dad_Scaper]

Excellent. I set up a separate Hearthstone thread, here.

I believe Naxxramas will be gone for good soon, so I would do that before it is gone and get the cards.

No, I wouldn't do that, unless they want to play wild (which they might not) it will not be worth it. Yes Naxxramas was the best adventure cardwise, followed by loe, then brm, but they can craft the cards they need if they go into wild now, so not really worth it imo now.
Edit-nvm Vegie said the same thing in the hearth thread.

It will be really expensive to craft all the legendaries though and you will miss out on the ability to play through that content and get the cardback for beating the heroics.

Jormi, continue that discussion here, please.
