The Scarlet Heist

The Scarlet Heist is a Hallow's End event in Heroes of the Storm running from the week of September 24 – December 3. You'll be able to equip skins for Junkrat, Orphea, Sgt. Hammer, and Whitemane, and complete quests to unlock Portraits, Sprays, Emojis, and special Mounts.

Official
New Tirisfal City. A town where every cop is on the take and every crook pays their dues. From her penthouse suite atop the Scarlet Monastery Casino, Whitemane runs the largest criminal empire this side of Tirisfal. There isn't a deal that gets made, a job that gets pulled, a scam that gets run without Whitemane giving her blessing and getting her cut. Until now.

Sick of answering to the Scarlet Mafia, Orphea has recruited Junkrat and Bama "the Hammer" Kowalski into a gang of her own... one that doesn't owe anything to Whitemane. Just one problem: every criminal organization needs a slush fund. Thankfully, Orphea knows just where to get theirs. The Scarlet Monastery acquires mountains of moola on a nightly basis, coming from every patsy on the floor right into the casino's vault. It's the ultimate score, in more ways than one. Sure, the money is one thing... but getting away with robbing from Whitemane herself? Well, that'll just let everyone know that there's a new mob in town.

Scarlet Heist Loot Chests
During the Scarlet Heist event, all Loot Chests you earn through progression, Heroes Brawl, or by spending gold will be Scarlet Heist Loot Chests. (Except Hero-specific Chests, which will remain unchanged.) Most limited-time items shown above have a chance to drop from Scarlet Heist Loot Chests only. You can also score Items from previous years’ limited-time Fall of King's Crest event in Scarlet Heist Loot Chests!

Legendary Scarlet Heist Loot Chests
During the event, a player can buy one Legendary Scarlet Heist Chest for. During the first month since the launch of the event players could also get one Legendary chest per purchase of a 30-day Boost.

Scarlet Heist Quests
Orphea's plan is simple: she grabs the safe while Junkrat brings the firepower and Bama provides the getaway. Whitemane would never expect anyone to be bold (or stupid) enough to steal from the Scarlet Mafia. And that's the best thing that Orphea's crew has going for them. As you complete quests you will unlock rewards and if you can pull off the heist you’ll unlock the Royal Getaway Sidecar mount.

After completing the base quest line, an additional set of repeatable quest becomes available to the player since October 15. A player can choose one of the three repeatable quests to earn a Scarlet Heist Loot Chest, limited to one Chest per day.

Trivia

 * New Tristram is a stand-in for 1920s New York, and filled with all the tropes you'd expect from that era with many mobster crime movie cliches.
