The Dalaran Heist Guide

The Dalaran Heist is a single-player game mode where you assume the role of an E.V.I.L. henchman that is helping The League of E.V.I.L. steal the entire city of Dalaran!

The content itself is split into five chapters, that will be released weekly starting May 16th. The first chapter is completely free to play and the following chapters can be purchased for $6.99 / €6.99 / £4.99 or 700 in-game gold each. Alternatively, all wings can be bought at once for $19.99 / €19.99 / £16.99.

Each chapter is reminiscent of previous rogue-like content, such as Dungeon Run, Rumble Run, and Monster Hunt, where you will be given a starter deck that you will build upon as you face off against a series of 8 increasingly strong AI boss encounters. Each chapter has its own set of bosses that you will face, although the specific bosses you face each time you attempt to complete a chapter will be different each time. In addition to different bosses, each chapter will also feature a unique mechanic that will be present during each encounter.

The release date and mechanics of each chapter are as follows:

Chapter	Mechanics	Release date
Chapter 1: Dalaran Bank	Coin-filled Coffers — a 0/3 cache will start on the bosses' side of the board, adding 2 Coins to both players' hand when killed.	May 16th
Chapter 2: The Violet Hold	Imprisoned minions — a minion from each player's deck will be imprisoned on their side of the board, becoming free once the number of turns equal to its Mana cost have passed.	May 16th
Chapter 3: Streets of Dalaran	Crowded Streets — 3 untargetable tokens will be present on each player's side of the board, restricting the number of minions that can be in play.	May 23rd
Chapter 4: The Underbelly	The attack and Health of all minions in play are swapped.	May 30th
Chapter 5: Kirin Tor Citadel	The chapter has 4 additional boss encounters that must be defeated for completion.	June 6th

When you begin a run of one of The Dalaran Heist's 5 chapters, you will first begin by picking one of 9 Henchmen, with each one representing one of Hearthstone's 9 classes. Unlike previous game modes, not all classes will be immediately available, with each class Henchman only becoming available once a certain chapter has been purchased and unlocked.

Details of each Henchman is as follows:

Class	Henchman	Release date and Chapter
Mage	Rakanishu	May 16th - Chapter 1
Hunter	Ol' Barkeye	May 16th - Chapter 2
Shaman	Vessina	May 16th - Chapter 2
Priest	Kriziki	May 23rd - Chapter 3
Rogue	Captain Eudora	May 23rd - Chapter 3
Druid	Squeamlish	May 30th - Chapter 4
Warrior	Mr. Chu	May 30th - Chapter 4
Paladin	George the Fallen	June 6th - Chapter 5
Warlock	Tekahn	June 6th - Chapter 5

After you have chosen your class Henchman, you will then have the ability to choose from a selection of Hero Powers and starting decks. Initially you will be limited to a class's default Hero Power, but as you defeat bosses with a class, you will quickly unlock new ones for use in future runs. In addition to specific starting decks, there will also be a "random deck" option that will provide 10 completely random cards to start with for those who like a challenge.

A full list of Hero Powers and starting decks can be found below:

Class	Hero Powers	Starting Decks
Mage	Fireblast Burning Wit Frostburn	Flickster Trickster The Elements BURN!
Hunter	Steady Shot Opportunist Pet Training	Beast Within Locked and Loaded Tech and Death
Shaman	Totemic Call Evolution Refresh	Carve and Curse Primal Storms The Swamp
Priest	Lesser Heal Distort Soothe	Disciplined Shadows Visions
Rogue	Dagger Mastery Yoink! Cut-less	Skulker Dead Man's Tale Kobold's Desire
Druid	Shapeshift Lifebloom Touch of Bark	Ferocity Two Paths Nature's Boon
Warrior	Armor Up! Invigorating Brew Undermine	Tough Crowd Burning Fury Boomin'
Paladin	Reinforce Backup Boon of Light	Old Hero Adventure Holy Flames
Warlock	Life Tap Pain Split The Pact	Sacrificial Seeker Imp-ressive

As you defeat bosses throughout the run, you will get to add additional cards and Treasure into your deck. As with previous rogue-like content, you will also get to choose one of 3 sets of 3 cards (buckets) to put into your deck. These sets called buckets are are all designed to fit a certain theme or strategy. As an additional part of the Dalaran Heist, you will also face Tavern encounters that will allow you to manipulate the cards in your deck.

After each respective victory in a run, you will be able to add the following to your deck:

• after your first victory: Bucket + Passive Treasure;
• after your second victory: Bucket;
• after your third victory: Bucket + Treasure Card + Tavern Encounter;
• after your fourth victory: Bucket;
• after your fifth victory: Bucket + Passive Treasure + Tavern Encounter;
• after your sixth victory: Bucket;
• after your seventh victory: Bucket + Treasure Card.

Below, we list all the currently known treasures you can be offered. It appears that the set of 3 treasures from which you can choose is random each time and can include a Treasure which you have previously picked.

Below, we list all of the bucket themes that each Class can be offered. Like with Treasures, it does not seem that there is any significant pattern to the groups of buckets you are offered, although you cannot be offered the same bucket more than once at a time. Within each bucket, the actual cards that you will be offered differ wildly, being chosen from seemingly a large pool of potential cards. In other words, no two "Frost"-themed buckets will have the same cards offered (or at least, it is unlikely that this will happen). Finally, it is worth noting that it seems like choosing a bucket will increase the chances that it will appear again as a choice in the future, thus allowing you to form a more cohesive theme.

Tavern Encounters are a new friendly event added as part of The Dalaran Heist. At the beginning of a Tavern Encounter, you will start with 4 minions from your deck present on the board, in addition to 4 other minions that belong to your opponent, Bartender Bob. You will also start with 2 Gold, that functions exactly the same as Mana Crystals. In addition to this, you will be given up to 6 special cards in your hand that will cost 0 or 1 Gold to play. The cards will have a range of effects that will allow you to add and remove cards in your deck, manipulate the stats of your minion on the board before they go back into your deck, and change the stats of cards in your deck.

The full list of card that known cards that can be used in Tavern Encounters is listed below:

• Brood
• Dismiss
• Good Food
• Kindle
• Recruit
• Recruit a Veteran
• Right Hand Man
• Round of Drinks
• Take a Chance
• Tell a Story
• Tall Tales
• The Gang's All Here!
• The Upper Hand
• You're All Fired!

As you progress through each chapter of The Dalaran Heist, the difficulty of each boss you will face will increase, with the first boss being typically very weak, whereas the final boss will be very difficult. Note that you own Hero's Health will also increase as you progress through a chapter.

The specific bosses you encounter on each level as your progress through a Chapter will be random. There is a specific pool of bosses that can appear on each level and some bosses are able to appear on multiple different levels with a different starting Health, Hero Power, and deck. However, no boss will appear more than once in a single play through. Each chapter throughout The Dalaran Heist will have its own set of bosses that you will come up against.

In addition to having 5 chapters of content, The Dalaran Heist also comes with 2 additional game modes after all 5 chapters have been completed, Heroic Mode and Anomaly Mode.

Heroic Mode functions similarly to previous Adventures, providing each boss a significant boost with better decks and Hero Powers, resulting in a huge increase in difficulty

Anomaly Mode creates another twist to the game play adding another level of replayability. At the start of a run, one of 18 different modifiers will be activated that will dramatically affect game play. A list of known modifiers can be found below:

Modifier	Description
Arcane	All spells cost 2 less
Crying	All Battlecries Trigger Twice
Fishy	Murlocs occasionally join the battle
Glittering	Gain a Treasure after playing high-cost cards
Growing	Minions gain +1/+1 at the end of their owner's turn
Gorged	Both players start with two extra cards and Mana Crystals
Hallucinating	Both players start with 10 Hallucinations in their deck
Infused	Summoning minions will give them Taunt, Divine Shield, Rush, or Windfury at random
Ogreish	All minions have a 50% chance to attack the wrong enemy
Reductive	At the end of each player's turn, reduce the cost of cards in their hand by 1
Wild Magic	All spells cast an additional time (Targets chosen randomly)

After the first successful completion of each Chapter, you will be rewarded with 3 Rise of Shadows card packs, for a total of 15 card packs once all Chapters are completed. Once all chapters have been completed, you will also receive the additional bonus of a Golden Classic Pack, that contains 5 Golden cards from the Classic set.

After all Chapters completed on Normal difficulty you will also be rewarded with the Dalaran Card Back. Finishing all Chapters on Heroic difficulty will also reward you with the Aluneth Card back.

In addition to card backs, you will also receive a golden copy of Zayle, Shadow Cloak, which will provide you with a random E.V.I.L. deck, in a similar way to Whizbang the Wonderful, when used in Constructed.
