f2p-account buys EOD: base game included e.g. "updated to a full account"?


Recommended Posts

...a f2p- account buys End of Dragon Expansion(!) - Is that possible?
I suppose the account is upgraded to a full account _with_ the purchase of an expansion?
Buying the expansion is not only for "upgraded accounts"?! The ads do not address/mention that specifically...

Any purchase of any Gw2 expansion will upgrade free accounts to a full one 🙂

I am not sure if buying standard edition of EoD would be a smart move... it probably will upgrade your account to a full account, but you probbaly wont be able to play HoT and PoF.

 

There is also a version of EoD called "EoD Collection" (this includes HoT, PoF and EoD).

 

Maybe things will be different when EoD get released in february 2022 (maybe they will include HoT and PoF?)

No probably about it.  Standard, Deluxe or Ultimate editions of End of Dragons do not include Path of Fire, or Heart of Thorns.  However, a full paid account has many advantages over a Play4Free account.

Which is a bit sad as I can not create a Revenant or train the central Tyra Masteries.

With HoT or PoF the Central Tyrain masteries are unlocked when you unlock the first mastery in the expansions.

I expect having EoD will be the same, but will have a long wait until February 2022 until you can unlock masteries via EoD... which is a sucky situation. When EoD comes out you'd have access to the eight non-revenant elite specs it brings.

 

On the other hand at least you have map chat now - so go mad (but a polite kinda mad). Buy some dyes and a mini-pet on the trading post.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if the HoT/PoF expansions are (much) later added for free to accounts with just EoD though, but keen an eye out for a half price sale in the meantime.

I preordered EoD on my F2P account, maybe this helps.

It seems that I have currently the same restrictions as a Core GW2 Account:

Did you play it when eye of the north was free maybe that trigger mastery track.

It is worth a shot.
