Hello. I have an account that dont have shadowlands and I cannot pre-order Dragonflight base edition. I only get the option that are 100+ euro. I know that with pre-patch, shadowlands will be intergrade into base game. I just hope it was possible to do it now by pre-ordering DF. Especially since all Bnet accounts got it as gift, except us that already had it on 1 Bnet account 
I would like to take advantage of the 50% exp buff to level some characters. Would be nice if you could get shadowlands with Dragonflight pre-order instead of wait for pre-patch.
They were giving SL away for free for a while to returning players. Sadly im unsure if that deal is still avaliable.
But yeah, til the prepatch shadowlands isnt rolled into the base sub like prior expansions.

I’m afraid not. There was a deal that ended on 5th September where you could get a free copy of Shadowlands if you do not already have a Shadowlands expansion on any of your accounts but that has finished.
It’s possible they may add Shadowlands to base before Pre-patch but either way, it is not possible at the moment to get it free.

yea I know of the deal, sadly it was not for all accounts 
but anyway, I just hoped that they could add shadowlands to the base Dragonflight edition pre-order… guess I ll have to wait for pre-patch. Thanks
It technically is.
The problem is, ur dragonflight preorder isnt active until preparch releases. Which means u cant use SL prior that copys activation.
Preordering is buying a product thats dorment, inactive, the reason theres bundles with df that come with SL is because ur buying SL as a addon to that as a bundle which activates immediately.
The only way they could get round tjis, is making shadowlands f2p for the period between Now and DFs launch. But i doubt they will do that.

I believe last time around they added it for free when the next expansion was available for pre-order.
It doesn’t make sense for them not to do that this time.
Blizzard are losing out on sales of Dragonflight because of this, but they are trying to milk people for their £34.99 for less than two months of play. Quite repellent really.

no it didnt.
If u look it up, theres several posts that tell players asking this question back then if it was going free prior Prepatch launch they said no.
i think there was a Deal prior the Prepatch alike SL went onto which handed it out for free to those who took the offer up. think it might have been a Prime deal if i remember correctly giving the copy to anyone with a prime account for free.
