I've got those expansions so that's a bust for me, but did you compare last years code to this years? Are there any new one's added this year?

* Well last year it was 46 quest packs and this year I counted 48, but I couldn't tell you want the new one's are.

Peril of the Planar Eyes pack is in the new quests, not sure what else would be different than last year. Pretty nice for any new player though, all the quest packs + 3 expansions for about three dollars in DDO points. Only stuff left to get after that is Sharn, Feywild, and Saltmarsh.

I'm glad SSG did this. I already bought all this stuff a long time ago, but hopefully it gets a few new people trying the game. And it is more in line with what other older MMOs like EverQuest have done, where you buy the newest expansions, and you get all the content before it for free.

As a newly-returning player, I set up my account and entered the code. Is there any way to tell if I got the items? It said that the code was successful in the tore on the web, but on Steam I got a message "Unable to deliver your purchase". Is it possible to check what adventure packs I have access to? Thanks in advance for the advice.

If you go to the store and look at the history page(click your account name in the top right to find it) there should be a list of everything you claimed.

Go to the in-game Store, click Account - Adventure Packs and then click on the various level ranges. You should see only a few expansions and things like the 'extras' from a couple of packs. Alternatively, wander around the map and revel in the fact that all the questgiver chalices are gold without any red highlights.

Steam won't have a clue. Steam and DDO integration isn't that tight. Steam only sells a few DDO adds.

You can also tell on the LFM page that very few LFMs will have the 'you don't own this pack' highlighting (regrettably, I've forgotten what that looks like ;) ).

You should also get an email from Xsolla (store people) that lists the 'purchase'.

For checking in game, open the store, click on the down arrow by your name and choose 'HISTORY' from the drop down and it'll show all the in game store purchases back to 2015.

[Conal Orion]

Thanks very kindly, all. The "Xsolla" email did come. I'll assume that the rest is just a slow-to-update thing until I can check it out.

One note: I'm seeing the option to purchase Shadowfell Conspiracy and Menace of the Underdark in the DDO Store for 99 DDO Points even though I already own them. This is clearly a bug. It's possible that it only happens to those who bought those expansions from outside the DDO Store (I bought them from the DDO Market website). But take care you don't re-purchase them. I don't know what would happen if I clicked to purchase.. might give an error.. but why risk it?

Thanks again! :)

Yeah, I actually bought the 99pt Ravenloft on an alt account that I never play before I realized that I already had it. I heard on the DDO forums that if you bought the expansions from the DDO Market previously, they will still show up in the DDO store. If you bought them from the DDO store, you won't see them. So if you bought stuff from the market, make sure you aren't buying it again I guess.

I think the system see's the 1495? pt version as different from the 99 pt version. I'm sure vice them going into the system and changing the cost, all they did was suppress the old and create a new sales item for 99 pts. So as far as the system is concerned, you haven't bought the 99 pt one and doesn't have a clue you own the 1495 or marketplace version.

For me I have the 99 pt Ravenloft offered, even though I bought that one for full point price via the in game store 2 years ago.

[Doug]

In any event, whatever the reason or however the bug occurs, it's possible you'll be offered expansions you already own at the sale price. Check carefully that you don't own them before re-purchasing.
