UNLOCKING the Mystery of Stormwind for the Gift of Elune CARDBACK! FAST ACHIEVEMENT GUIDE!

[@KingOfHarems]

I'll always be amazed how the hell people can solve this stuff so quickly. Just inspiring

[@Coreagrus]

Ikr? I love ARGs for that reason, and if a game hides optional difficult content behind them, that's really exciting. But now I'm referring to obscure indie stuff.

[@O-Negative]

Thank you Zeddy. Some advice when it came to stage 1. Instead of trying to follow what is written on the page, I read and recorded myself using my phone first. Then played it back in one take. Take note to speak slowly to allow yourself sometime to make the moves.

[@pollastroverde5242]

What if we used 100% of our brain?

[@mangobuster2460]

This has got to be the single most annoying thing I've ever done in this game, holy moly. Not even fun in the slightest, incredibly tedious to complete

[@pompejio]

This is more fun than hearstone itself right now. But I wouldn't do it anyways, because I would have to log on.

to me it felt like when I was a child and had to do homework xD. but im happy I'm done with it

i guess this is what night warriors do to get power from elune lol

[@ancient7716]

They should give a legendary or something or at least a hero portrait for this to worth the efford.

If you're just copying something it's not deserving of a legendary but definitely something more than just a card back.

some free xp worth about 25 minutes of our time and man its thanks to these dudes who grinded and spent good time on this. ty to the dudes.

[@emperoremperor7514]

Hey did you solve it??I couldn't do the 2nd puzzle can you help me?

[@zephyros256]

This reminds me immensely of the puzzle mounts they added in WoW, such as the Lucid nightmare where people tested all kinds of bonkers stuff to progress the steps.

[@SimonSmith_Ifmy]

The maze type ones like this first and the other from the previous card back brings back a lot of memories of trying to navigate the darkness areas in the original Bard's Tale. Instead of using the arrow keys to move around and moving forward to see if you get an "Ouch" from hitting a wall you have mobs being invulnerable and you attack certain others.

[@tisme1105]

Ah Bard's Tale. I used some serious graph paper mapping that out haha.

[@GoFr0st]

Thank you Zeddy and the community who figured this out !

[@jensenchavez265]

Cool card back and bravo to those who solved the puzzle but I'm insulted that Blizzard thought such a collosal investment of time and collaboration was well rewarded with just a card back. Certainly not worth my effort.

[@tikussnorlax3544]

I mean, it definitely appealed to the people who love solving puzzles.

[@jensenchavez265]

[@tikussnorlax3544]

@@jasonsmith4114 There is also a lot of collaboration involved, even more in the 2nd one. Admittedly, the 2nd one got cheated on, but still.

[@tisme1105]

@@jasonsmith4114 None of this was brute force. Part 1: Maze that's mapped out. Unless you count finding your way in a maze brute force. Part 2a: There's 900,000 values you can set the minion to, and if you are wrong puzzle resets and the answer changes. You can't realistically brute force it. Part 2b: I don't know how the numbers are derived, but it wouldn't have been brute force - once you are wrong you are back at the start of Part 2. Of course as is known turns out the client logs leaked data that pretty much skipped this anyway.

[@chicknwing2742]

Imagine if the devs put as much thought and creativity into their card design as this stupid puzzle.

[@qunas101]

Thing is I don't see any creativity in this puzzle. It's just hard for the sake of hardness. I can't imagine someone solving it the right way. The only way is cheating of brute forcing it (although it would take an eternity, probably)

[@fuscello]

@@qunas101 it’s done so you have to brute force it on purpose, it’s meant for an entire community not one single player

[@nok9926]

@@gregthomson2299 lol ofc it's putting random cards onto random minions cause you're just following the instructions of someone whos already solved it.

Is it really puzzle solving if, as far as I can tell, the only way to “solve” the puzzle is to brute force your way through all the permutations?

right? and i keep trying to look for someone that figured out a formula when i feel like trying again cuz everything i came up with failed, i don't want to tediously follow along to get this done -.-

[@dwighttheislander7369]

I actually finished this a few hours before the video, but no I used a guide The first puzzle is honestly harder than the second one, the second one the guide just gave a short maths lesson and that was that, but the first puzzle is bonkers

[@jenrobsreevanich8755]

Excuse me, could you tell me where does the tribes, attack, and health value come from? I am really curious.

[@dwighttheislander7369]

@@jenrobsreevanich8755 okay so, the tribes correspond to a number in your hand, for example, the Demon is 1 because it is the first card in your hand from the left, and you count it like that, but the card on thebrightmost side is 0 because no double digits. The health value is calculated vefore the attack, this is done by adding all of the health values of the cards in between the ?? And all the cards in between them on the enemy side, after getting a value, let's say 123 for example, you then use the tribe cards in your hand to put into the ?? But in reverse, so if you got 123 you put in the Elementals (which is 3) then mechs, then demons. Then do the same for attack. NOTE: that before calculating health, you must assign tribe to ?? You do this by adding all the TRIBE values of the cards, for example, if you have elementals, mechs, and demon, then that would have 6 (demons are 1, mechs 2, elementals 3), so you would add the Dragon tribe to the ??.

[@alcibc3037]

Zeddy has some insane APM.

[@imef3735]

Either he sped that up by more than it seems, or he's quick as heck.

[@93DegreesTilt]

i have already messed up the first part 3 times. i am just bad at keeping track of it. Edit: Got it. both parts down. thanks for the exp and cardback :D

[@pywakmistrzowski6111]

i do it too

[@FolgenNamp]

It s funny the Devs loses so much time creating these puzzles but puts zero effort in fixing wild. Blizzard: "do what they don t want you to do" Ah, yes, and we spend so much effort solving this dumb puzzle to get some xp and a card back! Thanks, Blizzard

[@fuscello]

These puzzles are so fun to solve with the community and probably take 5 minutes to create, and they announced they are thinking about nerfing seedlock so just stop

[@IncubiAkster]

It likely takes little effort for them to change what something does. They wait until they are sure of what to change as data comes in. You really think its all about man hours when they take weeks to change the mana cost of something? No.

[@Reaper44069]

…or play testing.

[@tikussnorlax3544]

The guy who created this puzzle isn’t part of mercs, or BGs, or Live balance. Also, he created the entire thing by himself.

[@newpowerup1996]

I tried to do this. The first part takes like 20 min. The second part is way more complicated at first but takes like 20-25 min for me, so all in all doable under an hour.

Seriusly wtf i think i pass =)

[@jenrobsreevanich8755]

Thanks for explaining the solving step, but what's the purpose of those step? Where does the tribes, attack, and health value come from?

[@zuligansvidious]

Thank you very much for sharing the solution in the video, very useful! Personally, I find it very tedious to do this kind of file, they are not fun or accessible for any average player, they are only a small, tiny minority who are in charge of decrypting them. I don't understand why Blizzard tries so hard to create content to please that very small portion of players, but nevertheless they are not concerned about pleasing other types of players such as single players or those who play control, which personally I think there must be a lot more than those who are interested in doing these puzzles, even if they are still a small number, they are more of those who are looking for this type of content.

[@benhensley3621]

Huzzah! The second part is fixed??

[@ElkaOneOnline]

Thank you for making the video, I couldn't bother to try to understand this by myself !! ^^

[@jasminlulu7560]

[@curbthepain]

I just watched a play through of this the other night and got it pretty quickly

[@paarahful]

u said "u need to make sure to only play these cards in the turn" to activate the puzzle- but i got it to work by recruiting elune out of my deck with guild recruit and moonfired her that way

[@Redhotquagmire]

Cast the thing on the lady. There. Done. Lol

[@fffanatikos]

Best explanation , thank you zeddy!!

[@Soulessnight4]

I wouldn’t really call the first puzzle a maze, it’s more like Youre slowly weakening portals till all are 1 health

[@tisme1105]

It is a maze. Just that leaves things on 1 health :P

[@cuellar4500]

thank you sir for you r help, I couldnt have done it with out watching your video

[@jofipa9953]

The first puzzle is doable alone, you can draw out the path, and you dont need to follow the spreadsheet 100%, i almost did it by myself but gave up cause i couldnt figure out that i had to leave all the paths at 1hp (which looking back makes sense). The second puzzle is just... not a good puzzle, literaly makes no sense even after knowing the solution.

[@jofipa9953]

@Yash Rajani true, i noticed it probably was a decision from the devs to have a easy do it yourself puzzle and another one that takes a entire community effort (kinda like in the barrens puzzles that had basically 4 puzzles each with a different difficulty scale with 2 extremely hard "gather the community" type puzzles)

[@emperoremperor7514]

@Yash Rajani hey can you help me with 2nd puzzle only the 1st input on stage 1 goes through and every time second step on stage 1 goes wrong

Hey, I have an issue. I got dualytype minions. What should I do with them?

Figured it out. If it it was later made a dualtype I used the original type. If it was released as a dualtype, I used the type listed on top.

[@ciupanezubogdanel]

As someone who quit hearthstone a long time ago but still watches HS content for entertainment every now and then.... This seems extremely retarded to me on Blizzard's part. And by "this" I mean the idea that you should concieve a puzzle like this where only the 0.1% of the most extremely brainiac of players who also have MIT degrees as well will solve it... And they will have fun doing it.. Meanwhile everyone else is stuck drooling at the screen and following a google doc. I don't think anyone feels like they "earned" this cardback except for the google doc authors.
