Why would they release expansion 5 or more months after 3.5? That's a lot, it was 3 months from 2.55 to 3.0

We will probably get 3.55 to so 4.0 should arrive 3 months after 3.55 releases.

2.5 was in January.

2.5 was on January 20, 3.0 was on June 23, that's not 4 months.

Then again, they've also said numerous things that they never actually did (FC/personal housing prices different, roaming primals etc).

I would be very surprised if they did add a 3.6, considering there's only one part of Alexander left, and they won't do a Mhach raid for both 3.5 and 3.6.
Since the Mhach raids are typically used as a way for players to catch up, I also can't see it being added in the same patch as the final part of Alexander.

The only thing that could be possible is SE splitting up 3.5 into two patches for MSQ reasons, similar to 2.5.

That leaves the expansion maybe late winter or in spring depending on how long they want to drag on 3.5 like they did with 2.5x, or they could pull a wow and make us wait an entire year. Who knows.

Code:

2.0   8/27/2013
2.1  12/14/2013

2.2   3/26/2014
2.3   7/07/2014
2.4  10/27/2014

2.5   1/19/2015
2.55  3/30/2015
3.0   6/23/2015
3.1  11/09/2015

3.2   2/22/2016
3.3   6/07/2016

by your chart I'd say by fall or winter of next year.

After 3.55
