Hey there,
Please read the Social Guidelines. This post should be in the Conan Exiles subforum, not the Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden one. Feel free to ask a moderator to move it for you.
The Barbarian Edition and its services have been discontinued, see https://conanexiles.gamepedia.com/Barbarian_Edition.
I’ll also note that as you are able to read, there are no advantages in-game. Furthermore, anything your friend has is either something you can’t find given your experience, from a mod or pre-order (it’s not from this Edition). There is no neccesity in having these items. Ask them how he got it and try to calm down a little bit
