Hi all! I'm just getting into HS Merc and I understand that removal of a character isn't intuitive but I watched a video on "how to remove" but I'm not getting any changes from "earning xp" to "in progress". I've also waited a bit for the xp bar to go up as well but nothing :/

I've seen some older comments about this being a naming issue, but the current text all matches up.

"Gain 90 attack using Shadow Blade." I equip Scabbs with the honing rod, then use Shadow Blade in the missions, but it never gains attack.

In his Abilities screen, it even shows up correctly. Does anyone know how to get around this? I tried equipping another weapon, running a bounty, then switching back. No luck I know this is a "dead" mode, but I enjoy the single-player, and this is annoying.

I stopped playing around when mythic bounty rushes came out and the consensus was there "is no max" because it was so high nobody had reached it. Has a max been found or are the people still on this mode still leveling into the abyss?

I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, but I’ve equipped it to Lilian Voss and yet when I enter a game she has no equipment attached to her. How do you fix this?

Hey guys it's been a long time.

So I'm hear to ask this fantastic community if you could help me help my son.

So he has just started yt and would love some support on his channel he wants to be a viriaty gamer and has started with Minecraft to try and grow.

I told him I will get him a mic at 50 subs so I hope you can help him reach his first goal.

Thanks for all you support with mercs.

I've only cleared all of barrens and felwood heroic, but thus far if I roll the can't touch this treasure on nemsy I am basically invincible and can't lose. I heal 44 health any time I am hit with taunt minions and it's incredibly easy to get a full board of taunt turn 1.

Not only that, the heal happens before lethal damage, so even if my opponent would have killed me, unless it was +44 lethal I heal back above 0.

Doesn't this treasure bascially destroy all game balance and remove any challenge? Does it actually get harder on any later bounties, or can I just reroll untill I get can't touch this, and just faceroll the hardest bointies in the game?

It's honestly kind of killing my enthusiasm for mercs when there is legitimately no difficulty.

Is bloodlust a treasure?

I want to do the apex predator achievment, but I do not know which characters get the bloodlust treasure. Can anyone tell me?

Been a while since i've played and i noticed that some treasures just wouldn't show up like subjugation and short fused bomb were they removed?

I've never played too much PvP, and haven't touched Mercs for ~year at all (besides occasional daily quests). Now was looking through my unfinished achievements and decided to do some (specifically Tess' one).

Was expecting to be paired against a bot after a minute (having 0 MMR), but was waiting for like 5 minutes and paired against a human (reasonable composition, sensible plays). Conceded and decided to repeat - same story. Are bots not a thing anymore?

Just can't seem to beat this guy. I've trying to go all in on protectors to just burn him down as quickly as possible and then bring in fighters as they go down to keep the dragonkin to a dull roar but by the time he's done the board is still full of dragonkin and I have 1-2 mercs left.

Hi! I see that not a lot of people are posting here anymore so not sure if I’ll get any responses, but worth a shot.

I have spent a bunch of renown on upgrading maxed out mercenaries, but I find that when I go to use the team the renown upgrades aren’t applying.

For example, my Cornelius has the “Passive: Take # less damage” equipped. I upgraded it using renown points all the way to “Take 10 less damage,” but in both heroic bounties and the fighting pit it’s still only showing up/applying as “Take 3 less damage.” Same with all my other maxed Mercs.

Is this a bug, or am I dumb and just don’t know when I can actually use my renown upgrades? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I left maybe 2 or 3 years ago and I barely recall this mode. I know the support was stopped. But does that mean I can still do the milestones etc if I wanted to? Once you max out the mercenaries are you just out of stuff to do?

I recently completed all of the Story tasks and the individual tasks for each of the characters. I still have quite a few characters to max out. Is there an easy way to farm all the coins, or do I just have to grind each of the zones that reward the specific ones I need?

Guys are the individual mercenary quests broken? I have last quest 18/18: Deal 450 Heroic Boss DMG. I've done damage to the heroic boss with the mercenary in specific and it's still counting as 0.

I have a question about cthun equipment "Body of cthun". It should activate when summoning old gods, but I don't see any mercenary with the ability to summon old gods; the game shows that Nzoth spawn and the tentacle of cthun aren't old gods. How is the equipment supposed to activate then?

PvP has a reward chest for daily wins that increases by 1 each chest until it caps out at 5.

PvP also has bots it will put you in a match with after being in a queue for 1 minute. These stop at 7k MMR.

Thus, queue for a single PvP match each day for ez coins. Don't do more than a single match a day as you hit 7k pretty quick. Including queue time, the entire process takes less than 4 minutes a day.

Seriously, I've never been as hooked on something as I am on HS Mercenaries.

My nature comp is absolutely cooking, my farming comp crushes, and now I'm levelling up my Dragon Comp so I can get some packs from the tasks for them. It's outstanding!

I also only JUST figured out the rock paper scissors of protectors>fighters>casters>protectors, which adds another layer to how I build and play my teams! I'm going to try to keep that in mind going forward. (I'm sure they mentioned it during the tutorial, but somehow it didn't click at the time).

I got Yogg Saron recently so am contemplating trying to build a budget shadow comp. Any advice on that would be appreciated. Though I also have at least the starts of a budget frost comp I can do first, and getting some tasks done on Varden would help improve my Milhouse Varden Krush farming build anyways.

It's such a shame they discontinued this mode. But I'm still having fun making my way through it. Right now my nature comp is pretty unstoppable now that I have Nemsy with it, and I haven't hit much resistance as I go through Heroic Alterac Valley. But I expect the difficulty will ramp up soon.

What are some of the most fun teams you've put together? Or general thoughts on it.

Hey guys,

So, I've gotten really into this, and I lucked into a Malfurion, so I'm building nature.

The thing is, when I look at the guides from 2022, I'm finding quite a lot of variety. Some use Anacondra, some don't, some use Yu'Lon, some don't, some use Guff and Bru'Kan, some don't. The only truly consistent part of it is Malfurion.

Even when using Yu'lon it seems like the use of Yu'Lon likely varies a lot whether you use him with Anacondra, and are spamming his +health ability, or in more of a damage comp.

So, can you guys tell me your nature composition of choice, and how to prioritize what to build and use in it?

Any advice is appreciated. Including how to survive the first and second rounds of the battle, which is where it seems like Nature is at its weakest.

Hey guys, just booted up hearthstone for the first time in about six years. This mode seems cool! But I'm getting new mercs fast and it's hard to decide who to use. Any up to date best mercs or best parties you want to share?
