Yo, this is a collection thread to be pinned to have all old starting zones in one post. I want to check out the state of each starting zone, and post my experience with you guys. Some are fully doable and some might have bugs which wont let you quest further. Pro's and Con's: Pro's: You can quest anywhere you want! Con's: You will have the Exile's Reach campaign info in your questlog and there's no known solution of how to get rid off it. You may encounter various bugs, which leads to skipping quests Older starting zones may take longer to quest through Horde: Old Starting Zone: Goblin Old Starting Zone: Blood Elf Old Starting Zone: Orc Old Starting Zone: Troll Old Starting Zone: Tauren Old Starting Zone: Undead Old Starting Zone: Pandaren Horde Allied Races: Allied Races do start in their original starting zones with no issues to reach the capital city Orgrimmar! Alliance: Old Starting Zone: Worgen Old Starting Zone: Night Elf Old Starting Zone: Gnome Old Starting Zone: Dwarf Old Starting Zone: Draenei Old Starting Zone: Human Old Starting Zone: Pandaren Alliance Allied Races: Allied Races do start in their original starting zones with no issues to reach the capital city Stormwind! AddOns i use and recommend: AllTheThings, which will show you all missing and completed content of a zone (quests, items, etc.) 400+MB usage HandyNotes + HandyNotes_TravelGuide to see all the Portals/Ships/Zepelins on the map which you can download from this folder https://mega.nz/folder/rpNwABYA#eVHEQSmp_06iS_dXUM0bKg BtwQuest can also be handy to find missing quests but has a high Ram usage https://mega.nz/folder/G1VVybiY#5gtRT6MiJ_pScKilx5Sppw Grail is a library of quest information designed to provide that quest information to other addons to make their decision processing easier. Wholly As you may know, important quests are displayed on the map, with wholly you also can see every side quest on the map Kaliel's Tracker is a questtracker addon which provides more options than the Blizzard default quest tracker. Released for Game Version 10.1.7 but still works for in 10.2.7 You like to read the Lore? Perfect! The HandyNotes Plugin HandyNotes_WellRead will show you books for the achievement https://www.wowhead.com/achievement=1244/well-read some of those books can be found in starting zones and capital cities. With the AddOn Lemmos_BookStore you can save them, to read them later. And probably many more, which i will add soonish. Some words: I'm very aware, that the Development and QA Team are focusing the current content, and those starting zones might not be fixed in the near future, but maybe this will give the idea to enable some of those zones for the character creation starting zone selection. I do will report every single issue which i find to the bugtracker.

Tired of Exile's Reach? Well, i got great news for you! With the use of the Unstuck Website feature or any Hearthstone toy (Except Dalarand and Garrison Hearthstones), you can get teleported to the classic starting zones. This method works on any race. Why are we only able to pick Exile's Reach as starting zone? Because the Firestorm admins think, those zones are too bugged to quest and enjoy them. I tested a few starting zones so far, and to my surprise, the worgen starting zone is working really well. How long does it take to finish this starting area: Around 2 hours with 85 quests to complete. I reached Level 19 with VIP Issues with Quests & NPCs: https://www.wowhead.com/quest=14154/by-the-skin-of-his-teeth very difficult, because no NPC will help you, and you might end up dying. You can accept the quest and go a bit away from it and hide, after 2min. the quest should complete. If you die, you have to abandon and accept the quest again. Profession Trainer https://www.wowhead.com/npc=50247/jack-all-trades-derrington has only gossips working for Tailoring and Enchanting. In Darnassus/Stormwind you can get your professions you need. https://www.wowhead.com/quest=26383/breaking-waves-of-change cannot be turned in because https://www.wowhead.com/npc=32973/dentaria-silverglade is missing. Creatures outsite of Gilnean City had a weird but with ignoring aggro, my warlock pet had no issues, they can all be killed but you will evade them a lot. Going very close to them is the trick. AddOns i used: https://firestorm-servers.com/en/addons/detail/417 AllTheThings, which will show you all missing and completed content of a zone (quests, items, etc.) 400+MB usage HandyNotes + HandyNotes_TravelGuide to see all the Portals/Ships/Zepelins on the map which you can download from this folder https://mega.nz/folder/rpNwABYA#eVHEQSmp_06iS_dXUM0bKg BtwQuest can also be handy to find missing quests but has a high Ram usage https://mega.nz/folder/G1VVybiY#5gtRT6MiJ_pScKilx5Sppw READ! Continue Questing through old zones or use Bfa/SL Timewalking from Chromie after reaching Darnassus: Because of a phasing issue with Darkshore and Teldrassil, you wont be able to see the tree, so better think twice before leaving this zone. Not Recommended If you want to continue questing in old zones, the first zone you're visiting is Darkshore. (BUGGED) https://www.wowhead.com/quest=26383/breaking-waves-of-change (BUGGED wants you to talk with https://www.wowhead.com/npc=32973/dentaria-silverglade NOT SPAWNED. Talking with https://www.wowhead.com/npc=141489/zidormi#map will put you back to the old Darkshore. But careful, creatures in the BfA Darkshore are too strong for you and have a huge aggro rage, you only need to bypass two creatures to reach her. Shes located at /way 48.84, 24.38 Using the https://www.wowhead.com/search?q=scouting+Map#items toys will unlock you all flightpaths, which Darnassus includes and you can go back to the Tree. Go to https://www.wowhead.com/npc=33253/delanea which is the only Flightmaster in Darkshore to fly back to Rut'theran Village and then go to the south Dock, to teleport to Stormwind. Recommended If you want to go to Stormwind and start the BfA/SL Timewalking from https://www.wowhead.com/npc=167032/chromie, you need to take the portal in Rut'theran Village which is outside of Darnassus at the bottom, there you can find a Stormwind Portal at the south dock. Note: The worgen herritage armor is currently not available via Quests but here <to be continued> i will explain how to obtain them anyways.

The worgen starting zone has no Toran so you can't change your xp rate. The whole thing sucks if you want to play as a worgen. You can't get past the whole starting zone until you are well above lvl 20. You also can't glitch out of the map and if you want to play it normally it's just impossible. A whole race is basically unplayable

Mt quest doesnt work,fix it please im youtuber my bug is cannot target enemy in quest push them out try this quest with mage worgen and fix it fast to i can play or i can found new server and upload video where i hate firestorm

It's probably an unusual ask but I didn't turn in a quest to King Greymane before being moved to a place outside of it. Is there a way back in? As of writing this my forum profile says I'm playing WoD but I am currently playing Legion with a Worgen, ofc.

Me and my Worgen brother ready to eat some meat ...

Soo not sure if anyone else aside from myself and one other person has noticed this but on the Grommash Server for Warlords The "Time to Regroup" quest is not triggering at all, this is aside from minor bugs ( such as joshia or what ever his name is being in the game, in one spot, three times). Figured I'd bring it to your attention since another Player had the same problem, at the same time, the second time I did a run through. screen cap is attached with the mini map showing the quest point while I am standing at the known, proper location.
