Hi, i just came back to gw2 and planning to get HoT, but i bought gw2 while i was living in europe @launch, and then moved to canada, my characters are still in the EU server, the question is, can i buy the HOT version in an american or canadian ( online ) store without having region lock? i tried to google it but as usuall i have seen different things … some says no problems, some the exact opposite, some websites specify EU, some worldwide, some EU/US only … and it is not written on the official store ( or i didn’t see it , if it’s not written i assume that it isn’t locked, but i prefer being sure).

thanks.

Not sure but if you login to your account and buy the expansion from the official online shop it should work just fine. If it doesn’t then support are pretty good with sorting it out or refunding it.

Yes. The expansion is not locked in that aspect. The store will allow you to add the serial key to your account

Your characters will still be ‘locked’ to playing with people on the EU servers though. Buying HoT from a US retailer won’t change that. You’d need to purchase a transfer to a new home world to play with peeps on the NA servers.
