i purchased hearthranger for about 3-4 months now and i would say its a really nice bot! i have some questions though...

i dont really know if i am using the bot's full potential. the moment i bought the bot, i just click the play button and thats it. it plays on whether i choose the rank or arena settings.

on arena, i usually get 1-2 wins. one time i got 5 wins and lost 3 wins successively.

on rank plays, the best i got is rank 15.

for both, i let my bot choose the best deck automatically. as for the rank play, i realized that even if i got a legendary card from solo adventures, it wont choose that card. instead, it constantly chooses the basic cards but i just let it do its thing. i was thinking of maybe the bot's choice is better than mine. and also, i observed that if i change a card in the deck which the bot made, it does not play very well.

what i am trying to say is... is this it? the default settings is all good, and i just have to deal with it because after all, the bot is giving me 100 gold/day... if thats it, then i wont be complaining as not all of my friends get the 100 gold/day.

if there is something more to it, please help me out here. for 3 to 4 months, my total achievements are:

completing league of explorers and black rock mountain (except heroic)
obtaining rank 15 in ranked play (this was my best ever)
having 5 wins in arena (my best record with the bot. lol! though usually its only 1-2 wins. sometimes its 0)
173 wins for mage
185 wins for paladins
173 wins for rogue
194 wins for shaman
168 wins for warlock
185 wins for warrior
172 wins for priest
193 wins for druid
170 wins for hunter
and 565 dusts

legendary cards i have which the bot doesnt use:
ragnaros lightlord
sir finley mrrgglton
bran bronzebeard
elise starseeker
emperror thaurissan
reno jackson
rend blackhand
chromaggus
arch-thief rafaam

epic cards i have which the bot doesnt use:
forbidden ancient
call of the wild
giant sand worm
forbidden flame
forbidden healing
lay on hands
shadowcaster
doom
cyclopian horror
twilight summoner
djinni of zephyrs
faceless manipulator

Even though those are some good cards, they are too slow in the current meta, or you don't have the cards to make them useful. Plus you have to remember the actual limitations of the bot. I remember when patron warrior was a thing, it was too much work for the bot to do without roping out and also took a fair amount of planning ahead so it just wasn't a good fit for botting even though it was the best deck at the time.

There is a 100 gold limit every day for ranked/casual/tavern brawl wins. You could have your bot run exclusively on ladder at rank 20 to farm golden hero portraits at the same time. The bot is very unlikely to hit legend with the current card pool. The last time it was close was when secret paladin was a thing so don't worry about that. If you really want the monthly rewards, rank 5 is the highest you need to go and you can check out this post for help with that.

Arena rewards are unlimited but arena is notoriously hard right now, for humans and bots so I wouldn't waste your money/gold.

As for maximum bot potential; it's getting you 100 gold a day (the max, and and also much more than most people earn) so it is at its maximum potential. Even if you made stronger decks or the bot included stronger cards, you would still get the same amount of rewards, just in a shorter time. So if you're the kind of person who just sets it and forgets it, why bother trying to speed things up if it's working already?

I personally have two separate accounts (no real reason to) so once the bot gets 100 gold on one account I stop it and login to my other account then start the bot again. Depending on the winrate of the deck, this can take 3-6 hours per account so I need to speed things up so I can use my toaster laptop for other things too. I use a tool called Hearth Recovery that starts the bot every time the server resets (2 in the morning for me) and by the time I wake up, the first account is done and I manually switch accounts and get things going again. I know that HearthRanger itself can do this but I prefer Hearth Recovery because it opens up my deck tracker, HearthRanger, Silverfish, and even restarts all of that if the game crashes.

That's a lot of info and should give you plenty to go off of but let me know if you need more help
