Note: Using minions which destroy/disarm weaponry will work in your advantage.

Heroic

The key difference between Normal and Heroic is that Echolocate The subject of this article is part of theBlackrock Mountain adventure. Echolocate Set: Blackrock Mountain Type: Hero Power Cost: 1 Hero Power Equip a weapon that grows as your opponent plays cards.See this card on hearthstone costs 0 mana, and the player does not get any Reverberating Gong The subject of this article is part of theBlackrock Mountain adventure. Reverberating Gong Set: Blackrock Mountain Type: Spell Cost: 1 Destroy your opponent s weapon.See this card on Hearthpwn data page] Reverberating Gong is a boss hearthstone cards.

As with Normal mode, the key trick to the fight is to use effects which destroy Atramedes` weapon. Acidic Swamp Ooze Acidic Swamp Ooze Set: Basic Type: Minion Cost: 2 Attack: 3 Health: 2 Abilities: Battlecry, Destroy Tags: Weapon-related Battlecry: Destroy your opponent s weapon.Oozes love Flamenco.

Combo: And your opponent s weapon.Rogues can t stand it. They know you hearthstone and Blingtron 3000 Blingtron 3000 Set: Goblins vs Gnomes Type: Minion Subtype: Mech Rarity: Legendary Cost: 5 Attack: 3 Health: 4 Abilities: Battlecry, Equip Tags: Random, Weapon-generating Battlecry: Equip a random weapon for each player.PREPARE PARTY SERVOS FOR hearthstone are all effective ways of doing this. Once his weapon is destroyed, Atramedes will always equip a fresh one at the start of his turn.

The player must balance damage from Atramedes` weapon with the advantage of playing cards, and hope to have a weapon destroy effect available once the weapon`s Attack gets dangerously high. Usually you will have to suffer some damage from the weapon, though, in order to spread out your weapon destroy effects. Note that it doesn`t matter (Blingtron aside) at what point in the turn you destroy his weapon, since he won`t gain a replacement until the next turn. Be that as it may, if you`re not destroying his weapon this turn, you should take great care to consider how many cards to play.

With these mechanics in mind, Atramedes is generally a fairly simple fight. Acquire a good supply of weapon destroy effects, and get busy defeating him before they run out.

An alternative and much simpler strategy is deploying Freeze A Frozen minion A Frozen hero Freeze is an ability that marks a minion or hero as Frozen. Frozen characters miss their next possible attack. After this, the Frozen status is removed. Frozen status only hearthstone effects from minions. Atramedes does only have one Taunt The shield-like Taunt visual effect Taunt is a minion ability which forces the opposing player to direct any melee attacks toward enemy targets with this ability. Minions with Taunt (commonly referred to as Taunts) serve hearthstone minion (with 2 health) and therefore a good supply of minions like Snowchugger Snowchugger Set: Goblins vs Gnomes Type: Minion Subtype: Mech Class: Mage Rarity: Common Cost: 2 Attack: 2 Health: 3 Abilities: Freeze Tags: Damage-related, Triggered effect Freeze any character damaged by this minion.Do the slow chant hearthstone or Water Elemental Water Elemental Set: Basic Type: Minion Subtype: Elemental Class: Mage Cost: 4 Attack: 3 Health: 6 Abilities: Freeze Tags: Damage-related, Triggered effect Freeze any character damaged by this minion.Don t summon a water elemental at a hearthstone will make it impossible for Atramedes to ever regain board control, making it a breeze to defeat him on Heroic mode.

Trivia

  • For the duration of this battle, the player is identified as "Slayer of Stupid, Incompetent and Disappointing Minions". This is in reference to the defeat of Maloriak in the adventure`s previous encounter, and is based on an identical title from World of Warcraft, obtained by defeating Maloriak on heroic difficulty.

Blackrock Mountain

More mad experiments? It’s the Hidden Laboratory, so we don’t know what you were expecting, but yes. Atramedes was once a hapless Black Dragonwhelp, and Nefarian had him blinded with a toxic salve in a failed bid to give the dragon super-sight. Don’t feel too bad though, because he’s still super evil.

World of Warcraft

"I have no need for eyes to see my enemies. Your clumsy footsteps and foul stench give you away!"

From Wowpedia:

Atramedes is a large blind dragon boss in Blackwing Descent.

Atramedes, also known as Experiment 25463-D, was a black whelp experimented on by Maloriak to be granted "sight beyond sight." This experiment failed, be that as it may, and caused Atramedes to become blind. Rather than disposing of him, Nefarian decided to make further use of the blind whelp.

Dungeon Journal

Atramedes, or Experiment 25463-D, is a failed attempt to bestow enhanced senses on a black dragon whelp. The toxic salve applied to the broodling robbed him of sight, forcing him to rely on sound and smell for survival. A tragic story... if Atramedes weren`t so evil.
