How To Earn Gold & Unlock Heroes For Free In Blizzard's Heroes Of The Storm





The Ways You Can Earn Free Gold In Heroes Of The Storm:

Player Level Rewards - Once per account at each gold award interval.

Hero Level Rewards - Once per each individual character.

Daily Quests - Repeatable quests that unlock one per day.

Game Rewards - Playing matches earns gold.



Earning Gold With Player Level Rewards As a player you have an overall player level. As your player level increases from playing matches, you unlock various player level rewards at certain levels. Included in these rewards are nice chunks of gold, in addition to unlocking more free characters slots.



Here are the current Player Level Rewards:



Level 2 - 1000 Gold

Level 4 - 1000 Gold

Level 6 - Unlock Daily Quests (Each Rewards Gold)

Level 8 - 2000 Gold

Level 10 - 2000 Gold

Level 12 - Extra Free Hero Rotation Slot

Level 15 - Extra Free Hero Rotation Slot

So in addition to unlocking the daily quests, which will award more gold, you can earn a free 6000 gold just by leveling up your player level simply by playing the game.

Currently there are 32 different heroes in Heroes of the Storm (including the recent Jaina addition), which means you can earn a free 16,000 gold just by leveling all heroes to level 5. Thrall is going to be available on the launch of the closed beta, which adds hero #32 and another chance for a free 500 gold. The new heroes tend to take 5-6 weeks before showing up in the free heroes rotation slot options.





Making Gold From Daily Quests

Daily quests in Heroes of the Storm are unlocked once you reach Player Level 6. You will receive a random daily quest each day and these daily quests can award anywhere from 200 to 800 gold each. You only can hold 3 uncompleted daily quests at a time, but let me tell you these daily quests are stupid easy!



Only one of the quests require you to win anything, for most of the Hots daily quests you only have to play! For example, one quest is "Play 2 games with a Warcraft Hero." It's not Win 2 games, but just Play 2 games. Some require you to use a specific type of character, like "Play 3 games with a Specialist Hero", or "Play 3 games with a Warrior Hero." You also don't have to log in each day to collect the daily quests. As long as you have room in your 3 quest hold bin, you will still get the daily quest added to your queue. This daily quest system is one of the easiest I've ever seen in any Blizzard game.





Playing Matches Awards Gold You can also earn gold in Heroes of the Storm just from completing matches. Currently you receive gold from completing a match in Cooperative or Versus modes. In Cooperative Mode you get 10 gold for a Win, none for a loss. In Versus Mode you earn 20 gold if you lose. If you Win in Versus Mode you get a 10 gold bonus, which makes the total 30 gold per Versus match won. So playing Versus other players will always be the best option when you are grinding for gold in Heroes of the Storm.



Co-Op Loss - 0 Gold

Co-Op Win - 10 Gold

Versus Loss - 20 Gold

Versus Win - 30 Gold

Tips For Unlocking Free Gold In Heroes of the Storm Focus On Getting to Player Level 6 To Unlock Daily Quests. Complete Daily Quests. Or at least never let your daily log get filled where you are missing out on potential gold from quests that you have no room for. Follow the Daily Quest Hold Bin Strategy for increased gold gains from the daily quests. Play Each Free Hero Just To Level 5, Then Switch To Another Free Hero. Mix Up The Hero Types That You Play. If you just played a melee warrior to level 5, don't do another melee warrior next. If you leveled a Warcraft hero to 5, don't choose another Warcraft hero next. This is because you want to minimize the chances of having to play a character for the daily quests that you've already leveled to 5. If you knock out all of your warriors first, then you don't have a fresh warrior to level to 5 while doing the daily quest for that warrior. Advance Your Player Level So You Get All Free Rotation Slots Unlocked. More heroes to choose from means more heroes to push to level 5 for free 500 gold each week and helps provide more options for daily quest choices to help minimize leveling characters you've already pushed to level 5. Play Versus Mode. There is no reason to play Cooperative mode. Versus awards a lot more experience and much more gold per match. Always Invite A Party Member To Be Your Friend.
