Free Stormblood for starter edition users

Can anyone please explain how this works ? I tried to get an account up to SB via "additional expansions" but I still need a code, and the only thing I can purchase is the full edition or the starter edition ? Can anyone please explain ? Thank you

From my understanding. They don't sell the previous expansions anymore. You just buy Endwalker and everything comes with it.

What's the point of the free stormblood campaign though ? Technically it's supposed to give the expansion for free to people on the starter edition

it says to follow the instructions but all there is is starter edition or endwalker so I dont understand what I'm doing wrong

Its basically useless, i dont know if they are that desperate for positive PR or something but the actual use case is very niche: people that bought the starter edition (so NOT FREE TRIAL users) but never bought Endwalker.

Starter Edition isnt free trial btw. Starter Edition is ARR+HW but paid instead of free trial

So it's actually not even free as you have to buy endwalker to get it ? That's actually pretty desperate if thats the case

And that's what I have on my alt account, I have the starter edition

It's super niche.

No you have to buy the starter edition, which is just ARR+HW, so basically what the Free trial already offers which is why almost noone has just the starter edition. Most people play Free trial and then buy complete edition because just buying starter edition gives you no additional content

So I have an alt account right now with ARR+HB which is the starter edition (not free trial) and this doesnt apply to me because I bought it earlier ?

edit : i'm out of posts but I got the help I needed, thanks guys ♥

Oh woops I didn't know about the promo. And no you don't need Endwalker. If you have the base game (not the free trial). Base game normally is still up to heavenward but with everything available.

Did you get a code to use on your account? Sounds like that's what you need.
