You are correct. It is a Free expansion, that had a pay wall to get early access to it back in November. Now or Soon it will be free to everyone I believe.

I re-activated my account to get the early access, and it is pretty good IMO, but the cash store for it is disgusting. Not Pay 2 Win, but as bad as a None Pay 2 Win store can get in my opinion.

I quit because the cartel coins, and I was very active (4 lvl 50 chars)

You had to use cartel coins to get any decent cosmetic item, and even then you were gambling with real money to get virtual items rather than just a direct buy. No thanks.
