The challenges being a mystery isn't the problem. Not knowing what the end-goal rewards are, is the problem.

The whole point of changes between each HC season is to mix it up, and have new surprises, new challenges, and new rewards for the players.No offense, but this is a really bad way to go about a hardcore season.
Many players who do hardcore like to make groups with their friends, and all of those friends want to know if they should waste their time or not. Some people need to plan their real life time out ahead of time.
This really isn't a fair way to treat players for this type of event. For many, it's going to be a hard pass if there's too many unknowns, and the only ones that lose out is SSG.
Give it a few days after the server opens and the wiki should have enough information for you to make that judgement yourself.No offense, but this is a really bad way to go about a hardcore season.

If you want to know everything about the challenge before it starts, there is always the regular servers. No surprises, just the way you like it.
It is called Hardcore, not "soft , please hand me my participation trophy, core"
My favorite part is the comment about not wanting to waste time. Playing video games in its entirety is a waste of time. Hello!?!?
When you offer opinions on an open forum, you are automatically offering them to everyone.Whats the point in keeping the rewards a mystery then, if it'll be on the wiki a few days after?
My favorite part of this comment, is how condescending it is. I simply offered my opinions to the devs (not you), and now you're saying I'm a terrible player who needs to be handed hardcore rewards for free? I've done hardcore before, with 0 deaths to 5000 favor (with hounds also) and more.
This has nothing to do with being handed rewards... or the game mechanics (like I said before if you actually read.)
I've heard MANY players in game say the exact same thing as me, but they just don't want to deal with fanbois chastising them on these forums (go figure, right?) Most players actually want to know if the rewards will be worth their time or not before planning real life time. Like I said the first time, this only hurts SSG in the end. The playerbase already seems low enough.

How praytell could the rewards spoil the mechanics? We already know it's treasure and dragons from what they released. All we would know is what we already know... Unless it's like a bait and switch and it's hounds again or somethingI agree with letting some thing be discovered and the rewards may be tied to the challenges so stating them might be a spoiler for the challenge. However, could we know the conditions in advance such as +2, +3, +4?
I am probably alone in hoping there is nothing I want from this season.
The answer is +2 for the level lockout, or effective level on Elite.I agree with letting some thing be discovered and the rewards may be tied to the challenges so stating them might be a spoiler for the challenge. However, could we know the conditions in advance such as +2, +3, +4?
