Because some people want to be educated buyers and know exactly what it is they are buying. You like to blindly purchase things you have no idea what it will include, and that's fine because EA loves those people.

I don't normally pre order any games, but today I decided to go ahead and get the expansion. I like alot of what we can see so far so I'll support it.

The Champion War Hero gear looks like crap for Guardians. But overall I'm excited for the expansion. Hopefully for the whiners their classes will get a good boost for PvP. :P

It's honest, fair and balanced posts like this that ensure I keep faith in the playerbase of this game. You had a reason to wait, and when you felt it was worth it, you did spend the money without feeling bitter about not having more information before. Bravo!'

For full disclosure: I pre-ordered day 1 because I had the income to spare and knew I would buy it anyway. To each their own decision making when it comes to their own money, I always say.

Legacy stuff, new abilities, NiM TFB, increased professions, etc. seem to be available to all.
^^^ This is probably the complete truth of the matter and is also in no way different than any other expansion I ever paid for in any other game.

Changing of systems and talent trees/powers are for everyone, regardless if you pay for them or not. The content and changes you do not notice until you are above the old level cap is always only for those that buy expansions. And many of the things in this 2.0 patch on PTS are actually content/changes to the 51+ level range.

Will be even less nice when one of the people in their AoE is a Guardian with the new Reflect ability on ;-)

New abilities are "see but not touch" without expansion, because they all require level above 50. Assuming TFB NiM will be scaled to lvl 55, it's the same. Unsure about professions, items they make obviously can't be used at 50, but people withot expansion could also be locked out of training them above 400 at all.

Most excellent changes. Overall, seems pretty balanced with regards to PVP, and I have no worries about new PVE content being great in 2.0.

Actually, quite surprised at the attention to detail in some of the changes - like they've read my mind on Guardian. HEHEh.
