Should I Buy the First Two Expansions or Wait?

-

I’m considering buying the first two expansion packs to unlock a full account, but I’m on the fence. Is it worth it, or would it be better to hold off for a potential discount or buy a different expansion instead? For context, I’m currently at level 43 and really enjoying the game, hanging out with friends, though I’m the main player. I’ve put over 1000 hours into other MMOs before, so I’m keen on the game especially since it’s free-to-play without any subscription fees.

I’d suggest waiting for a discount, but even at full price, the combo pack of the first two expansions offers incredible value. You get so much for a reasonable price!

If you can wait for a discount, that’s cool. But seriously, considering the amount of content, it’s still a great deal.

ValorKnight -

It’s absolutely worth it! The expansions unlock two of the three elite specs and give you access to four mounts. From what you probably know if you’ve played games like WoW, these expansions are cheaper than a year’s worth of subscription fees. I’d recommend waiting for the last three to go on sale since that should happen in a month or two, but the first two are a fantastic value at any price.

Get the Path of Fire and Heart of Thorns pack—it’s pretty cheap! By the time you explore the story and maps, the other expansions might be discounted too. Plus, don’t forget about the living world seasons; they’re worth playing through before the next DLCs. You can buy those directly or even farm gold for gems to get them!

QuestHunterX -

Honestly, if you’re enjoying the game already, investing in the expansions is a solid choice. Grab them when the free-to-play limits start bugging you, and consider your budget. They go on sale often, usually 50% off, so if you’re tight on cash, you might want to hold out for the next sale.

FallenPaladin -

I think the first two expansions are definitely the best purchase you could make right now! You’ll unlock a ton of content that enhances your gameplay experience.
