Hearthstone Mercenaries Leveling Guide – Fastest Leveling Up & Upgrading Mercs, Farming Tasks & Coins (Updated for Mysterious Stranger Nerf)
Not sure what you mean by “easier”, the Level 8 Barrens Heroic one is very easy once you run Mercs that are level 30, you one-shot a lot of the opponents. Heroic adds some difficulty, of course, but it’s still level 8.
And if I remember correctly, Heroic Air Elementals is the one guaranteeing a Mystery closest to the start (it’s 3rd encounter) while Barak has it further up.
Nozdormu the Eternal Deck Lists - How to Finish Nozdormu Day Quest - June 15, 2023
Did you play it in casual? Casual is bugged right now and doesn’t give any Quest progress at all. I had to finish it in ranked :p

Just “Combo” means that another of your Merc has to use ability before it in order to activate.
E.g. “Fire Combo” means that another of your Merc has to use a FIRE ability before.
One important note is that you can combo even if your abilities have the same speed – e.g. both are Speed 5. The ability you pick FIRST will always cast first if there’s a tie (only works for your abilities, if your opponent has something with Speed 5 it will still be RNG).
Hearthstone Mercenaries Game Mode Now Live! Find All Of Our Guides Inside!
Hey, have you tried again? Because a lot of people were locked in tutorial, but last night they’ve released a hotfix that supposedly tackled this issue.

You can never get a cosmetic portrait INSTEAD of a new Merc. It only happens when you own all the Mercs from that rarity anyway.
Patch 21.4 Known Issues - A Lot of Mercenaries-Related Bugs, Battlegrounds Rating, Crashes (Update: 2nd Patch Released)
Yeah, a hotfix was just released and Task 5 issue was one of the fixed bugs!

That’s weird, I got reports from both Android and iOS that the patch is downloadable. I also got mine on Android. But then many people said that they don’t see it.
Hearthstone Mercenaries Launch Guide - Everything You Should Know As a New Player, Tips & Tricks For Beginners
I don’t think that Hallow’s End event has started yet. They’re just selling some skins now. The actual event will be live with Patch 21.6 (probably the same time as mini-set). We don’t know when, but I assume that should be in 2-3 weeks.

I actually think that HS should have this “mailbox” thing in the main menu. Right now you need to look stuff like patch notes, announcements, event info etc. up online – it would be nice for every player to have access to them one click away in the main menu.
Add a little extra touch like being able to send pack gifts to your friends (with limits, of course, so you don’t create 10 new accounts and send yourself gifts :D) and it would be really cool addition.
Grandmasters 2021 Season 2 Results - Three More Players Qualified For World Championship
Don’t sell them short, maybe they would contain a Golden Legendary 😀
And yeah, they usually arrived instantly (or nearly instantly), but in theory, they have up to 48h to send them out according to the official drop rules.
Grandmasters 2021 Season 2 Results - Three More Players Qualified For World Championship
I watched 4h+ on Saturday and got them on Sunday, later than usual, but within the 48h they promised.
If you don’t get them after 48h you should probably just message the support, I think that they resolved it for some people the last time it happened.
Hearthstone Mercenaries Guide - Full List of Merc Heroes, How To Get Them, Abilities, Equipment, Leveling
From what I’ve heard, a few more Mercs will be added in bigger patches (like new Heroes in Battlegrounds), so we’ll probably see Valeera and others later.
But to be honest, it’s a bit weird to have Valeera as the center point of the Mercenaries key artwork and not have her in game, haha.

Legendaries definitely aren’t more powerful than lower rarities. There are some great Mercs at every rarity. In fact, some Rares seem to be some of the best Mercs in the game (in theory, things might change in practice).
I don’t think that game being “P2W” because you need to have a team full of Legendaries will be a problem.
And yes, Gul’dans Felbolt is HORRIBLE, but that’s probably on purpose. It’s because it’s not meant to be strong by itself, but to “power up” Rain of Destruction (which gets strongest for every Fel spell you cast).
"Welcome to Mercenaries" - Short Video Guide For The New Game Mode Released
We’ve released a guide with full list of Mercs + their abilities/items etc. It should make the decision a bit easier.
Still, it’s something Blizzard should do themselves when asking for people’s money from pre-orders.
"Welcome to Mercenaries" - Short Video Guide For The New Game Mode Released
True, but there’s a long introduction section/tutorial when you first launch the game mode. Since it’s free I think that it will be worth trying – you should more or less know whether you like it or not after the tutorial.
Iksar's Twitter Q&A #31 Summary - Next Focus After Mercenaries, Bigger Expansion Late in 2022, Balance Changes Philosophy, New Cosmetics
Wait, so Riot is paying people to promtoe Runeterra?
Runeterra Top Decks, here we come!
Shop Update: King Rastakhan & Elise Starseeker Hero Sets Available For $14.99 / €14.99 Each
Devs have confirmed that they will all be available for Gold at one point, but no one knows when.
Shop Update: Shadowlands Bundle (4 Portraits for $24.99), Golden Standard & Classic Bundles (5 Golden Packs + Golden Legendary For $24.99 / $19.99)
I think that splitting them between “just cosmetics” and “just packs” is best for consumers, though. People who want skins can only buy skin bundles, people who want packs can only buy pack bundles, people who like mixing both… can just buy both, haha.
Like, I know people who want the maximum pack value because they have weak collection, but they don’t care about skins. I’m in the opposite camp now – I have all the cards I want and more than enough Dust, so I don’t want more packs, but if I like some cosmetic then I might buy it.
But yes, I’m getting less and less inclined to buy cosmetics now that I have a few cool portraits for each class. They’re really pushing A LOT of them lately and it’s not a bad thing (it’s better for everyone if they earn money from cosmetics), but it just means that I will only buy the ones I REALLY, REALLY like.
You know what, I wouldn’t be surprised. At least they didn’t ignore the issue completely, because it really sucks to get resources that are just useless.
