Class Halls
Argus missions that award
Blood of Sargeras
now cost 600 more Order Hall Resources. This will not be correctly reflected in the Legion Companion App until its next version update.
Developers' notes: Completing these missions with bonus rewards previously returned more Order Hall Resources than they cost. Rather than reduce their yield, we've increased the cost of the missions so that players with ample Order Hall Resources can convert them to tradeskill materials.

Pit of Saron
The health of most enemies in

If you have all Legion Legendary items for your class, consuming a class-specific item that generates a Legion Legendary item will now always generate a token for another class.

I don't know anything about net positive order resources, but I know that I long ago stopped running missions of BoS because they're so UNGLODLY expensive.
Then you missed out. Running the Blood missions at 200% meant you *gained* 600 more order hall resources. Far from being too expensive, they were a legitimate way to have self-sustaining alts that could run missions indefinitely via the app without ever having to login to do quests.
It is a shame they nerfed it - stating clearly they "indended" only to have this system help people convert order hall resources into "tradeskill materials". No way - this system was the way to manage alts as we could also mail the resources between toons. It's clearly something they want to curtail and will put a big hurt on players who spent months to setup alt armies. It will slowly ruin the way those alt armies work and it's pretty clear they will eventually just remove gold missions too, just like WoD. They are just starting this process a lot earlier than expected to beat down the alt armies before launch.
The one class that still has a positive haul are druids if you use the champion that reduces mission cost. Pretty limited now though.
And it is sad they did the nerf without updating the app - i had no idea the missions i was sending on the last few days were nerfed because the app thinks they weren't. That's pretty nasty Bliz.
Well I've been 'doing the intended way' then for months, it's you people that should get over it. Like I said, you can 'convert' OR to gold playing easily on the alts, AND you'll still have time for your raiding or mythics+ or any other content of pleasure. And I just tested TODAY (23-02-2018) those BoS missions, one is asking for 2400 OR, while giving 12 BoS, when once they asked for 1800 baseline (sometimes double, with the debuff) and giving around 1200, not 2400, like you people said that it 'gave' 600 OR. Even if it really did, those missions wouldn't spawn that fast as, for me, I don't do only the OR + Gold Missions. I farm gold, Bpet charms (tons of them now on an alt's bank), reputation tokens for my main to farm paragon on one character. My alts even farm AP, apart from gold, the way, and I pretty much farm Leggos on them this way (emissaries) sometimes or the other.
Mythic+? If not to aim for Mythic Raiding, then they are not for me, sadly, the gear we get might well be replaced by some quests in BfA, the 'time' spent on them, I don't see it well worth it, the only thing 'worth' doing M+ is the M+15 achievement, for the artifact tints (that will be removed in BfA). After that, I can 'retire' M+ on said characters.
My 'progression' in Legion is mostly playing the 36 specs thru the mage tower. People with many more time can manage playing M+/raiding on more toons, and bombard MT if they can, but the way I said in my previous post, you can do more than 1 thing on alts, while doing emissaries, with followers equipped with OR-generating equips.
Right now, BoS missions seem to give the OR you spend on them, or if you want, you can spend BoS on tradeskill materials, but meh, I can farm BoS on those fast WQ, giving ~10 BoS. That is, if you really read my entire post. I can do whatever I want with my spare BoS accross my toons, apart from buying more OR, I can buy tradeskill materials to craft some WQ items or even sell to AH, as materials or crafted items.
