Just started the game yesterday and wanted to see if I missed any special event skins or anything.
Yes. One example of a skin that hasn't been available for months are the Jaina and Rehgar Winter Veil skins. An example of (I believe) a currently unavailable seasonal skin is Harlequin Nazeebo, which was for Mardi Gras. There are a exclusives though. Like the Wonder Billie was only available during alpha / beta. I believe that's the only mount that was limited time only. There are other mounts / skins that are seasonal / rotate in and out of the shop. IIRC the flying carpet is temporarily unavailable, but will be back.
That horse mount for Blizzcon tickets is probably one of those cases too. The flying carpet is available right now. The golden cyber wolf is also not available anymore.

I thought the Golden Cyber Wolf replaced the Rainbow Pony in the Nexus Bundle? Kind of awkward though sine a lot of alpha players got the Nexus Bundle, then would have had no need for the Founder's Pack so were effectively shut out from getting it...
Likewise, I wonder if they'll always have the Starter Pack available (and if not, will the Golden Tiger get moved to something else?)

Do damage auras reveal cloaked enemies?
Is there a QM MMR and is it linked to your Hero League MMR?
Does anyone play Team League?
Has there been any indication of whether any of the 10k heroes will ever see a reduced price?

I'll answer the only one I know.
1. Yes, damage auras (like Arthas') will reveal cloaked enemies.
I'm pretty sure some heroes came down in price from 10k during the beta. Who knows if that will continue though. Is there any reason they aren't all the same price?
|
Damage auras like Burning Rage do not reveal cloaked enemies as far I know since they are targetted but Arthas' aura will decloak. They will always keep the enemy heroes from recloaking of course.
There are separate MMRs I think but I doubt they're linked.
I'm guessing currently, no since the 5 man teams likely still play Hero League anyway.
Blizzard is changing it so that 5 man teams playing HL go to TL instead.
Anub'Arak was 10k at one point and is now 4k, not sure about the others.
The only steady reduction I've seen is new heroes going from 15k to 10k two weeks after their introduction.
|
i'm pretty sure Burning Rage does reveal cloaked units since it also damages Creep Tumors from Zagara
|
It would be really weird if Burning Rage didn't reveal on contact since both Lighting Shield and Frozen Tempest do (pretty sure Immolation does too, but usually you'll hit them with Sweeping Strikes anyways).

Anub'Arak was 10k during the Beta and was lowered to 4k. We will definitely see reduce in price, we just don't know when.

They both have separate hidden MMR.
Source: I played ~1000 games of quickmatch before doing my first hero league games, and I can assure you that the change in the quality of games was more than huge.
(As in, going from being matched with experienced players whose matchcount was in the high hundreds, down to new players with matchcount in barely tens)

1. What is the recommended Quick Cast setting?
2. How to get that beam of light above your character? Space just centers the camera to my character.
3. I saw in one video player using some shortcut that opened a menu sort of like G, just with staff like 'Thank you', 'Well done',.... Can't find it anywhere in the shortcut, has this been removed from the game?

1.-Real man don't use quick cast. (Jk, I personally don't use it but I've heard release to use is the prefered setting).
2.-It may has something to do with your graphic settings maybe.
3.-The chat wheel was removed, but they have said they might bring it back in the future.

1) Not sure what other people use, but currently I am using cast on release. I wish you could set it differently for different characters or even different abilities on the same character.
2) hold Space bar down.

Some heroes benefit from quick cast and other are hindered by it. It is more a preference and case-by-case basis. *In general* heroes with a self combo (Kerrigan being the poster child) benefit from quick cast. Some heroes where you want to line up a skill shot often times it is best to turn off quick cast.

Does Azmodan's Bound Minion talent boost all minons affected by General of Hell or just the targeted minion? It says "increases the Minion's damage".
|
Just the targeted minion. I'm not sure if English is your native tongue but the apostrophe+s on a noun indicates it is possessive. So it increases that minion's damage.
|
Alright. Well I was just curious to why that talent is considered the best one (from the builds I've seen) if it only buffs one minion... I really thought it was a typo cause I've seen other typos on talent descriptions.
And which minion should I target?
|
I have two simple questions:
1 - Where is GM Marshal? Was really invested in heroes and haven't seen him in awhile (and the free week rotation list thread is still with an older post in the OP instead of the current list :p)
2 - In simple terms, why is Thral considered so bad? He can run into and out of trouble, he has a very useful stun and his q is not that baaaad. Ok he lacks some power in fights but I find him very useful in surprising and chasing heroes to finish them off. Is there a reason why he gets so much hate and so little to none playing time?
Thanks

I think Thrall is just overshadowed by other melee assassins. Is there ever a time where you'd rather have Thrall than Illidan or Zeratul? Not really. Kerrigan is often better too. There's just not enough room on a team for another melee when the other options are better.
|
Both Thrall and Kerrigan are in sad place now with weaker Envenom and Blood for Blood.
The Butcher pretty much outshines Thrall in every way and Kerrigan only has her combo still going for her.
Both heroes need quite a rework.
