Alrighty, this is mostly a curiosity thing more than anything.
Im currently leveling a monk and this is the first time I have gone through any of the older content since Vanilla (so this is the first time Im seeing all the changes brought in by Cataclysm).
One of the things I have enjoyed about the experience is that instead of jumping back and forth between two continents to get to zones appropriate for your level, you now can do it all from one continent, in this case, Eastern Kingdoms (FOR THE ALLIANCE!!).
So, I followed the Zygor guide progression, starting in Elwynn Forest moving south to Stranglethorn, then jumped all the way to the north most area (plaguelands) and starting moving south from there until I ended up in Swamp of Sorrows, finished Swamp of Sorrows, and then was directed to...Winterspring to run a small group of quests, then was sent BACK to the Badlands before entering the Dark Portal.
Pay careful attention here to this, if someone answers 'loremaster', you didnt read the explanation in the next two paragraphs.
If you open a new guide, open the LEVELING folder, then open Eastern Kingdoms (so Leveling->Eastern Kingdoms->Winterspring), you'll see Winterspring (54-58) listed as an option.
Now, if you go BACK one level and this time select Kalimdor, (so Leveling->Kalimdor->Winterspring) you will see Winterspring (51-55), select it and you see TWO Winterspring guides, listed as (51-52 & 52-55).
Again, note that at NO TIME did we go into the LOREMASTER category, we stayed in 'leveling'.
a. Why is Winterspring even listed in the Eastern Kingdoms guide when its location is Kalimdor?
b. Why is the level range different between the Eastern Kingdoms guide vs the Kalimdor guide?
c. Why are there TWO Kalimdor guides for Winterspring?
d. What is the difference between the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor guides?
e. Why are you directed to Winterspring on a TOTALLY DIFFERENT CONTINENT in the leveling process? Seems to me you get enough exp doing the guide as it is MINUS the exp... Just as an fyi, I finished the Badlands at level 60 and a half, no heirlooms or guild xp bonus.
