Downloading Heavensward

[Atoli]

So Heavensward is like a patch?
Because I started wondering how we are gonna download it. If it's in the launcher, everyone can play it though, not just those who bought it, isn't that right? ._.

The entirety of Heavensward can be downloaded. Everyone could in theory do so. But I suspect the system that tells their launcher if we have access or not will limit those without Heavensward to not downloading it.

WoW lets everyone download their stuff. But something is in place to stop you if you did not buy the expac.

everybody downloads the entire patch, but only those who buy hw will be able to access the new story, areas, job quests etc
