Good news to Hearthstone players who love Battlegrounds! Quests are back to this mode starting today. That's right! Battlegrounds Quests are in every game. The Quests system works the same way it did before, but with adjustments.
Go on a Quest
For those new to the game, Battlegrounds Quests were introduced in Battlegrounds Season 2. What happens is that at the beginning of turn four, which is also the six-gold turn, you'll be asked to choose from three Quest-Reward pairs. Your pick dictates the reward you get for completing that Quest.
Basically, Quests require you to do specific actions like summoning a number of minions or spending a certain amount of gold. Once completed, you get a reward which gives you a perk that has an effect for the rest of the game.
New Adjustments
As mentioned, adjustments were made to Quests. Stronger rewards mean harder Quests to complete, while weaker rewards mean easier Quests. Hero adjustments were made as well, like how those with more armor could have an easier time with their Quests. There are also Quests which have been adjusted based on minion types available in the pool.
It's also important to note that some Quests and rewards have been restricted to certain lobbies or specific heroes to prevent unwanted interactions. Of course, Quests and rewards are offered at different rates, which means some are going to appear more frequently than others.
