PC version is broken for a lot of people, including me. (http://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fus.battle.net%2Fhearthstone%2Fen%2Fforum%2Ftopic%2F20746904543%3Fpage%3D1&h=BAQEkJU5I) UPDATE: it’s working again
Blizzard has hosted a Fireside Gathering at the University of California, Irvine campus and gave away prizes including a mysterious invitation which we can only presume is for the next adventure announcement!
“You are cordially invited to a most majestic, marvelous, magical event, the likes of which have never been seen before,” the golden ticket reads. “It is our most sincere hope that you’ll be able to join us!”
Date for Release/Announcement? Maybe at Gamescom in Germany August 17-21? Blizzard has announced that they will be there.
Two Raids have risen to the top of the list of possible locations. Karazhan and Ulduar
* Karazhan
BACKGROUND INFO: “Medivh, the Last Guardian, made his home in Deadwind Pass, in the bright tower of Karazhan. Though he was the greatest wizard of his day (and humanity’s intended custodian) Medivh was secretly possessed by the dark spirit of Sargeras, the Destroyer of Worlds. Through Medivh, Sargeras opened the Dark Portal and allowed the orcs to wage war upon the kingdoms of Azeroth.
As the war progressed, Medivh fought against Sargeras’ control. The raging conflict within him finally drove the wizard irrevocably insane, until his childhood friend, Anduin Lothar, aided Medivh’s young apprentice, Khadgar in storming Karazhan and slaying their former comrade. Since that day, a terrible curse has pervaded both the tower and the lands around it – casting a dark pall over Deadwind Pass and the region that is now known as Duskwood.
In recent years, nobles of Darkshire ventured into Deadwind Pass to investigate the blight that had settled over the region. None who entered the dark tower ever emerged.”
Medivh was possessed by Sargeras, leader of the Burning Legion and a fallen Titan. His home was Karazhan, an ancient tower in Deadwind Pass. The card Echo of Medivh gets it’s name from this character, as you run into an apparition of Medivh and encounter Shadowbeasts.
One of the characters we could potentially run into would be Nightbane.
It’s possible that we could see our first Mage, Priest, Druid or Warlock weapon, Atiesh. Medivh is actually holding it in his Hearthstone art. Following his death, it’s broken into many, many pieces. These end up in the hands of Brann Bronzebeard, who somehow loses portions to C’Thun and Kel’Thuzad.
In WoW, the staff can be obtained by the following classes, Mage, Priest, Druid or Warlocks, each having slightly different stats. In WoW the weapon would have different color cloth on the staff to differentiate it. The staff’s effect was that it could open a portal to Medivh’s tower at Karazhan. Maybe something Blizzard could play off of.
In WoW, the mage version would increase the critical strike chance of nearby party members; Warlocks and Priests increased spell power; Druids increased Spirit.
We’re not likely to see a process by which we gather the pieces and reassemble the staff like you can in WoW, because we just did that in League of Explorers.
Don’t forget that there are some awesome events that could be done from the Raid, like The Opera Event where you had the plays, The Wizard of Oz, Big Bad Wolf and Romulo and Julianne.
