    Default No Saltmarsh or Feywild Guest Pass?

    Why is there no guest pass for the Feywild or Saltmarsh?

    I was going to take a friend out there to show it to him before he committed to buying one, but there are no guest passes for those two areas.

    What gives?

    it does not matter if it is a pack or an expansion. the point is that consistently selling stuff is optional it seems. the ddo store is a freaking mess, always has been.


    for the packs, all of them have pass.

    for the expansions:

    isle of dread: afaik, still no pass, pretty new, i wonder if it will ever have a pass anyway. correct me if i'm wrong please.

    saltmarsh: no pass

    fey: no pass

    sharn: yes, 100 ddo points

    ravenloft: yes, 199 ddo points

    wheloon\stormhorns: no pass

    motu: a pass named king forest "access to the Level 19-21 Adventure Pack with 6 adventures and a large wilderness with
    random encounters and 87 objectives" for 100 ddo points and this is a real rip off and an insulting joke.



    ....but you can buy 10x anti-mummy elixir for 1495 ddo points if you fancy it.

    They sell a sharn guest pass so no, it doesn't matter if its an xpac or not.

    No they are not available to VIP.

    I have complained MANY times about the lack of Feywild guest passes.

    Can any of the Devs give a reason for this?

    I know that it would make it far more likely for people to buy these packs if they could get a preview from someone who already owns it. Not offering them seems foolish to me from a purely financial perspective.

    Like so many things, the devs have never commented on it, and their silence is very weird.
    If I can read the dev tracker, you can too.

    Default Sev just said he'll look into it

    Sev said he'd look into guest passes for other content - see 22:45 mark of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUG5VrZNYMc

    I'm tired of paying full price for those, they need to put those elixir's and healer kits on sale once and awhile.

    They should cut the price of those elixirs in half for VIP.

    Then they will get the "value" they seek for their subscriptions.

    the answer is money. they're not going to make guest passes until the new expansion sales drop enough to justify it

    Why would devs comment on prices in the store or whether or not an item is in the store? This not in their purview. This would be managements decision.

    new expansions do not have guest passes and requires real money to access it

    when an expansion has been in the game long enough (half a year IIRC) they become available through the DDO store with points (and I think guest passes as well).

    We know that. Dread is in the Store, and Fey & Salt have both long been in the Store. We're talking about Guest Passes, which are missing.
