I have always been on the side of making old battle passes available after they are finished, and vehemently opposed to time-limited exclusivity, so I do not disagree with the proposition by intent, but by its unrealistic expectations - that is, wanting Funcom to do something they will not do.
The bazaar and battle pass items cannot be used without connecting to the Funcom Live Service because they intentionally designed them that way. They didn’t have to, they chose to.
They have moved over to the bazaar model and will not be doing more DLCs.
They have also said that they won’t sell battle pass items on the bazaar.
So a realistic ask is just to have some sort of option available that allows someone to unlock and play on an old battle pass. I think there are several different possibilities, possibly even ones Funcom has already considered before they decided to not allow old ones to be played. They just need to make the decision to make old battle passes available. The “how” isn’t the important part.
They said that they were planning to release other variants of the armor stand into the base game. Who knows when that will happen, but the armor stands were never meant to be battle pass only.
