I bought the base game without the year 1 pass or the new expansion.
Since the gold edition is on sale, I was wondering if I could just buy the gold edition instead of buying the expansion. I have already beat the game and have good gear but I don't know if buying the gold edition would get rid of that gear or just be a waste of money.
Hello pandan04, welcome to the forums!
If you decide to purchase Gold Edition of the Game, you will keep your progress (only if you purchase it from the same account). As you mentioned the expansion, please keep in mind, that the Gold Edition does not contain Warlords of the New York expansion. I hope it helps and if you have any additional questions, please let us know.
