Eloc Freidon.5692 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 If you have Path of Fire you will get Heart of Thorns for free since new content coming out will benefit from all masteries.What about players who own HoT, but don't have PoF?

Teratus.2859 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 PoF is required to play all living world after PoF until a new expansion comes along.If you have HoT already you'll be getting a veterans package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arklite.4013 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I bought HoT years ago. Haven't bought PoF yet. It's rare that companies will do anything for people like us moving "forward" in expansions. It's already pretty generous that they're offering it on sale.

knomslayer.9457 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 I have Path Of Fire but no HoT. Thank You Anet for giving free expansion. WoW would never give their players free expansion. LEL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WoW would never give their players free expansion. LELActually, WoW stopped requiring you to even buy the base game (for a new player). At this point if you pay the sub price, you get access to everything through Legion. Battle for Azeroth is the only expansion you have to pay for. (And once the next expansion goes on sale, BfA will be rolled into the same deal.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got HoT and left some 2 months after its release. I never bought PoF because I saw no future in Anet's overall fuzzy-logic (too much left: Turn right - too much rigtht, Turn left) choice of "direction". If they gave me PoF today it wouldn't change a thing for me: I would not return, I wouldn't buy tons of gems. It would probably annoy many of the GW2 loyalists though.Unwanted gifts is on most accounts a stupid move. Otoh: Giving HoT to fans that like PoF may make a lot of sense.PS: Yeah I am revisiting, lurking the forums, for that 0.001% chance of a GW3 announcement was happening.

Fueki.4753 Posted August 30, 2019 Share Posted August 30, 2019 Do people who already own both expansions the armour(or is it an outfit?) and Glider as well, or are we left out of the deal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing you could possibly have already obtained prior to the HoT Veteran’s Package is all the gem store skins that are available as a single choice via the voucher.

Aaralyna.3104 Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Check in game if you can play the 1st story of Heart of Thorns (maybe start it then). If you don't have it there should be some lock.If you have this story locked, check if you have it on your account manager, maybe you need to do something there?If there is no HoT added at all, contact support so they can look into the issue as to why you never got HoT and fix it for you.
