Update v1.7 is now live and I am sure many of you are checking out the new Coalition features out. While you are doing that, we wanted to provide you an update and let you know that the Avacyn’s Madness Event doesn’t start until tomorrow (9/28). The main activity hub message screen may be confusing as it doesn’t list a time when the event starts. To find out when the event starts, please click on the information button and you will see when the event starts plus some additional event info.
We hope you enjoy the new update and good luck in the event!
Summary: Defeat Avacyn’s minions to deal damage to her health bar.
Players fight 15 different PVE encounters, 5 different nodes of 3 opponents.
Players must defeat the first opponent of a node to access the second one and so on.
The Nodes have 3 charges each.
Players earn individual Progression rewards for personal total damage dealt, and coalitions are ranked by the total damage dealt during the time of the event.
I do not have secondary objectives right now, maybe someone can chime in with what they are tomorrow morning?
Hmmm instead of telling us where to go for this info, (which is a good thing to know), why don’t you also post the time here. Then people can just see it here and now, and check out the info later. Right now my device is turned off and charging. I thought I would visit the forums while I wait and catch up on the posts for the new patch. I was glad to see the post heading, because this was something I had wondered. So now in about 45 minutes I’ll get the information instead of having it readily available in this post. It would be appreciated if someone posted the time. Thank you. I would be surprised if I was the only person disappointed when they couldn’t just come to this post and find the time.
It starts at 12 pm EST, same time that all other events start. I think the point of the post was to clarify that it started on 9/28 rather than 9/27 like the game made it seem.
The bonus points in every challenge are exclusive of each other. The first is worth 3 points, the second 2 points.
If you miss the first you can still try for the second, generally.
This is by design, and similar to many matches in story mode. I find it better executed here though.
Most from this event are exclusive. There are a couple that are not, such as one where you play without lifelink, and also lose creatures (I think it was Watcher in the Web?)
I definitely agree that this is a better system of side objectives though.
Also agree the side objectives are more enjoyable then those in most other events. I think the main reason is that most of the objectives don’t require you to stall out the game until you can draw and play the objective condition cards like often happens with Terror. And there’s not as much uncomfortable deck finagling necessary to shoehorn the optional objectives in.
Here is my best, each node is only one as I’m sure you have seen by now!

I haven’t gone and fought Avacyn yet, but I had already expected she had the same BS power like Tyrant of Valakut from OGW event the last time. Slightly less damage, but BS all the same. This will be a problem for Sorin since he has no innate ability to boost toughness…
Anyway, some of these enemy abilities are really confusing. Werewolf summoning zombies? Persistent Nightmare getting help from Gisa? Ohrmendahl getting more mana boost from green matches? the list goes on…
And bloody hell… there are TOO MANY ENGULF THE SHORE in the enemy decks!
Avacyn’s battle seems to have an odd bug regarding the secondary objective. I ended a fight with her at full health (thanks to lots of lifelink) but didn’t get the secondary 90+ health bonus. The low health didn’t trigger either (my final health was 102 on a level 52 PW). Another person in my coalition also noted failing the objective with a high 90+ final health total.
Hi, how is that possible, when Avacyn kills my Runaway Carriage, that actually “prevent damage” has? So can it be that all spell proof creatures are useless against this boss?
