What does Heavensward actually bring to the table as an expansion?

Not everyone posts on the forums either. 5 mil accounts =/= 5 mil players. Going to say it again, since some people still don't get it and think theres a ton of players and the game is doing good, when it isn't. But the actual total of players is about 600k-700k (but 5 million accounts?), out of those 600k-700k, about 100k-200k are rmt. Out of whats left, theres about 100k or so that aren't actively playing and only have an active account because they bought extra subscription time. So, not counting rmt, people with 2 accounts for refer a friend and people who have extra time, there's really only about 300k or so.

Most recent census revealed that the number of active players is around 800k-900k. Active, as in learning new minions and other stuff. So I have no idea where you are pulling those numbers from. Keep shouting account =/= active player, it still doesn't prove your claim about dropping sub numbers.

And here we go again because people can't read >_> lol Out of those 2.5 mil, you forget a majority are rmt, people who have quit already before trial was up (I know quite a few who did this), people who got 50 and quit and the double subscriptions for the refer a friend. How many stayed? Not 2.5 million I can assure you that. Registered accounts =/= active subscribers

Also, the 5 million doesn't count trials. Only people who have bought the game. Oh and don't forget that not all of the 2.5 million previous customers from 2013 and 2014 stayed either.
