I initially considered adding the blood elf and draenei starting zones as well, since they’re in the same area. Their primary hubs, a sort of miniature capital city akin to Theramore, are Gilneas City and Nordrassil for the Alliance, and Lordaeron City (the canonical name, Capital City, sounds too generic and there is some precedent for calling it Lordaeron City) and Bilgewater Harbor for the Horde.įrom there, players have a 10-20 zone for their faction, and the remaining four zones to get to level 50 are all neutral, with settlements and quest-lines for both factions. Alliance players can start at either Gilneas or Mount Hyjal, and Horde players can start in either Tirisfal Glades or The Lost Isles. This can be changed upon reaching level 10 at your faction’s primary hub on the continent. Upon starting a new character in this hypothetical revamp you would get to choose between two starting zones (and Exile’s Reach and the original ones) which would also choose the continent you’ll level to 50 on. So I thought, what if there was a special 10-50 leveling experience, maybe even two, created to be a timeless, self-contained storyline that could be used forever (with players still being given the choice to use other past expansions for leveling via Chromie time as well)? Why not combine that idea with new homelands for night elves, undead, and worgen (and throw in goblins since they’re right next to night elves in Azshara) to create two brand new 1-20 starting experiences for each faction, and two 20-50 leveling paths! However this constant swapping of 10-50 content without the accompanying context behind the stories seems troublesome. How exactly that will work after Shadowlands is unclear, but I’m assuming they’ll just swap out Kul Tiras and Zandalar for the Shadowlands. Right now leveling for new players has them start on Exile’s Reach, then level from 10-50 in Kul Tiras and Zandalar. That they neatly fill up certain subsections of Kalimdor and the Eastern Kingdoms, and in Kalimdor’s case share it with goblins, gave me an idea. Battle for Azeroth left the night elves, Forsaken, and worgen without homes, though the books Shadows Rising and Exploring Azeroth: The Eastern Kingdoms teased a future resolution for them. I think it’s still too early to do another one, but I have a different type of fan concept I’d like to share today. It has been awhile since I did a fan expansion concept (prior to the announcement of Shadowlands in fact).
