    I'm curious as to how this quest reward will work with Crystal Power. Does it allow you to target two separately or does it make you deal damage to and then heal the same minion? Will Branching Paths get all three?

    Pretty sure it only targets a single minion, just like Wrath does.

    Branching paths doesn't say choose once anywhere so it isn't affected by the Quest reward.

    Wardruid Loti will love this hero power reward, lol. The quest seems easy enough to complete, with a reward that's not too oppressive.

    Seems powerful in the right meta. In a control vs. control, having Fandral Staghelm on a Hero Power seems pretty powerful in the long term.  Now all Druid needs is a reason to play a control deck, instead of just running over those control decks with Token.

    A fun little Quest Theorycraft for Shaman.  Just remember, the pen is mightier with the sword.

    I’m surprised to see no one has mentioned the reference to Magic The Gathering:  “untapped” referring to untapped lands (unused mana).

    I think Druid is supposed to use Wild Growth with this, seeing as it grants an empty mana crystal that is unused at the end of the turn.

    After looking at all cards with choose one effect:

    https://hearthstone.gamepedia.com/Choose_One#Cards_with_Choose_One

    I think the following would be right - this quest alongside Worthy Expedition would either enforce current miracle jade druid (feat. Arcane Giants, Gadgetzan Auctioneer obviously) or would create a slow swarm deck, that benefits from both choose one effects occurring (Cenarius, Power of the Wild, Mark of the Loa...). I am not sure whether the latter archtype would be playable in either format (especially in wild), but it's worth testing. I thought about this being included in standard heal druid, but there aren't that many good Choose one cards to benefit from.
