Sir Finley Mrrglton, renowned gentle-murloc explorer, has been scouring the jungles and coastlines of Azeroth in search of mannered murlocs ready to take up the mantle of heroism and reject the savagery of their fishy-folk. You can aid his cause with a little help from your friends!

Morgl the Oracle
While most murlocs are more likely to have visitors for lunch than they are to invite them over for tea, Morgl the Oracle has wisdom, wit, and the wherewithal to fight the good fight. His language skills aren’t quite up to Finley’s level, but his command of the elements is unmatched! He’s got the attitude, and he’s got the skills—now he just needs a little convincing!

Show Morgl How It’s Done!
Help recruit a friend for Finley by recruiting one of your own! Hearthstone is a grand adventure, but it’s even better when a friend joins the expedition! You can practice together in friendly matches, help each other with decks and strategies, knock out those spectator quests, and even hang out at Fireside Gatherings or watch Hearthstone streams together.

Just invite a friend to join you for some Hearthstone fun! After your first recruit has accumulated a total of 20 levels across all of their Heroes, Morgl will follow your friend’s example to join your collection as a new Shaman Hero. You’ll also receive a free Classic Hearthstone pack when your next four recruits reach the 20 level milestone. Also, ALL your recruits will receive a free Classic Hearthstone pack upon logging in to help them on their way!

Recruit your friends today! Be sure to brush up on the rules and restrictions!

    Worst patch ever. Performance, especially on the iPad and iPhone, has gone seriously backwards. There is a serious amount of lag and jotter. Many comments have been posted on all forums, even the battle.net forums, but the last time I looked there was still no response. Opening the collection on my iPad mini 2 took roughly 45 seconds. Selecting other menu options also now takes inordinately longer. It is bordering on the unusable.

      Referals also get “lost” and many people are complaining that they are not being awarded their new hero when they have completed all of the necessary steps.

    There’s also a new quest, in which you have to fight against one of your friend. Each player receive 80 gold as a reward. And before you ask, no you can not concede instantly xD

        what does it mean get lvl 20 like for all the classes or a total of lvl 20 throughout all classes and not lvl 20 mage, warrior,shaman, so on

          Get to level 20 across all classes rather than level 20 for an individual class. I did it by just playing practice. Leveled Mage and Hunter to 6 each. Leveled Warrior to 2.

          As others have said, it takes less than an hour. The only frustrating part is going through the slow tutorial in the beginning.

    Do you know, if my brother starts an account, but he stops playing, and i pull it up to 20, does this count as a cheat?

      You probably aren’t supposed to do it, but if you live together it’s probably not an issue.
