Vercundus Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 My sub will run out soon, definitely before new expansion. As an ex-subscriber will I be able to reach new max level on my current characters while I'm preferred or will I have to wait until sub again?

Ahrngrim Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 If they handle it as they have before, you will have to gain accesses to the new Expac to get to max Level. So clearer answer after Oct.7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nepochop Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Depends on how they will treat KOTET, if it will be a purchased expansion as before or simply an patch like KOTFE was, hard to say. Hopefully you will know after October 7th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erevan_Kindelar Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 My gut feeling is that KOTET will be treated as a paid expac, although subs might get it free of charge. I have no written or Bioware-based information to back that up though, just a feeling that may simply turn out to be indigestion or last night's chili repeating on me. EIther way, if you go Preferred before the official release date of KOTET (or before the Early Access date* if there is one and you qualify for that), then I am 99% sure you will not get access to the content included therein or to the new max level, if there is one. * I have not paid much attention to the blurb about KOTET, so I do not know if there will be any Early Access. But the usual model that Bioware adopt is to say that if you subscribe on or before some specified date before the release of the new content, then you qualify for Early Access. Subscribing after that date gets you access to the new content on its official release date, NOT the Early Access date (which is usually 2-3 days before the official release).

Vercundus Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share Posted September 30, 2016 For comparison, I was able to reach level 65 when my sub run out earlier this year, midway through KotFE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GythralSWTOR Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Most likely it will be the same as KotFE, sub for 1 episode/month and you can get to max. level. You will have to pay for the expansion or at least a month sub. under either model Bioware have used but there is a very good chance we will still be clueless about what on going on in 9 days time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therecanonlybeon Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 my bet - expansion free for subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nate_river Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 my bet - expansion free for subs Well it's good thing... I don't see any reason why f2p or prefs should be able to reach max lvl for free not mention about new story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
