(Updated) Shop Update: Three New Skins (Mage, Druid, Priest), One Returning Skin (Hunter)

Update: It looks like we also had some new Battlegrounds items for the first time in a while and I missed them. I’m adding them now!

It’s Tuesday Wednesday, so it’s time for another shop update! Even though it’s a major patch launch, the shop update itself is pretty mid-sized. There are some nice cosmetics to get, but other than that there’s nothing. As an extra reminder – Audiopocalypse mini-set has just launched, and you can now purchase it in the shop too (for real money or gold). Here are all of the new items that are available this week:

  • Kit Waxwhisker Bundle (1500 Runestones or $15) – New Tier 1 Mage skin + related card back + 5x Mage Card Pack.
  • Bookworm Elise Bundle (1000 Runestones or $10) – New Tier 2 Druid skin + 5x Druid Card Pack.
  • Apprentice Hedanis Bundle (1000 Runestones or $10) – New Tier 2 Priest skin + 5x Priest Card Pack.
  • Tavish Stormpike Hero Skin (1000 Gold or $7) – Returning Tier 2 Hunter skin. Originally available from a Legendary Quest Chain in March 2022.
  • Forbidden Library Battlegrounds Mega Bundle (2500 Runestones or $25) – 1x Legendary Strike, 1x Rare Board, 1x Rare Bartender and 5x Epic Hero Skin.
  • Forbidden Library Epic Emote Bundle (500 Runestones or $5) – 6x Epic Battlegrounds Emote.
  • Mixologist Malicia Epic Emote (150 Runestones) – 1x Epic Battlegrounds Emote.

Tier 1 skins are “premium” ones while Tier 2 are more basic. In general, Tier 1 skins tend to include more extra features like completely new emotes, Hero Power animations, and some extra visual effects. Some of those might be also included in Tier 2 skins, but usually only 1 of those special features is present (if any). It’s not an official classification – it’s just something we use to differentiate between more basic and premium skins!

New items usually stay in the shop for around 2-3 weeks – sometimes it’s longer (4 or more weeks) and very rarely it’s shorter (a week).

    Dear Stonekeep,

    Do we know anything in particular about all the old adventures available for gold in the in-game shop? Will it stay from now, or it is only temporary?

      According to the patch notes, it’s permanent. So you will always be able to buy them with gold from now on.
