Leveling
Zone order from 1 to 60 by faction and starting race, with the main hubs and the dungeons of each stage.
Old zones use Classic reference level ranges. Zephras Isle and the Riverglades are new Forever zones; dungeon levels follow the client.
Levels 10–30 follow your starting region where available, then rejoin the faction route at 30. This is zone planning, not a tested quest sequence.

Choosing the next zone
Choose among the listed zones for your level; this is a regional plan, not a quest-by-quest route requiring every zone. Skyborne join the common faction plan after Zephras Isle, but their departure destination is unverified. Check your region’s announcements for current Beta level caps and access.
