This was an idea I had when I heard about the community council.
In any expansion, what’s the first thing you do upon hitting level cap? Do you immediately continue with story quests? Do you run dungeons or Timewalking to gear up?
Do you feel more open to the world or does it feel like you’ve hit a wall?
So what are your initial feelings hitting level cap and what would you want to be open right at cap?
To me, the game is all about progression… Once you progress to the end of levels, you move to progression of levels on gear… what’s the minimum to get into heroics… what’s the minimum to get into raids…
I couldn’t care less about the story… unless there’s a cool upgrade at the end of the story that is.
In the old days, the feeling would be YES NOW I CAN RAID! Now the feeling is…uh…time to level the next alt…
I don’t know what I’ll do from here on out, but before now, I would do my 3 callings, then start the covenant campaign, run off to Korthia and do as much as I could in one day and then maybe run some heroics, do the world boss, buy a crafted piece and a Darkmoon card, etc.
The biggest issue I always have with leveling an alt to 60, is that I typically build up a set of 200-210s before I ever get my legendary, because I never really cared for Torghast, but maybe that will change now.
What ways could you think of that could change that?
Maybe having a lower item level “entry” raid? They do have Mythic+ Dungeons alongside Heroics after all. I’m not suggesting all raids have a version playable right when you hit cap, but one designed to be that way could be cool.
Buy 200 ilvl gear (or whatever the equivalent is) - mostly because I’m one of those idiots who plays open world content on healer specs, and the way ilvl scaling works being max level with low ilvl really sucks when you do so little damage.
Immediately after hitting cap:
Go to the AH and buy the super cheap full 200 ilevel sets that completely invalidate dungeons, world quests, and heroics by design.
This character has been level 60 for 8 hours of game time
Unlock soulbind, send korthia armaments and hope to get lucky, buy pvp trinket, queue arenas to get 2 vaults for tuesday, run torgast for a 190 legendary, kill world boss for chance at covenant conduit, look if theres a wquest that gives a conduit, complete weekly pvp quests to maximize honor
Is generally what i do
At reset i’ll open vault, if no weapon i’ll buy weapon with conquest i got yesterday, and queue arenas until i’m caught up on conquest and then queue bgs to upgrade all my conquest
As someone who plays a lot of alts, I feel like I do the same thing I did while leveling them, spam dungeons and get gear, as well as do the basic chores like getting a legendary, one thing I don’t do right away is actually the covenant quest line. I start it and do the first soulbind but after that I just don’t touch it until I have to. It boring doing it over and over again for alts and it doesn’t really even feel all that important to do at the moment. Btw this might just all be me being weird, so take this response with a grain of salt.
I generally just stop with what I’m doing and start focusing on getting my toon geared for M+ or whatever.,
LFR is already there for this
stare into the void and wonder what i’m doing with my life
then unlock world quests
Level cap, whatever regular one time quests are left, knock those out, head to wherever there are more one time quests. Maybe do dailies. I couldn’t care less about dungeons and raids in current expansions so I just doing other things with my main that I enjoy doing, or hop onto an alt and keep leveling them. 
When can I fly!
First thing I do is jump on my next character to level them up, and the cycle continues like that til I have every class to max level. yup, I’m a glutton for punishment.
I was able to skip normal and heroic on my DK since I had 5 32 slot bags filled with Korthia boa gear. After opening about a dozen or so(got lucky with very little repeats), I did the mandatory covenant quest that let me unlocked the campaign skips. I skipped all the way to Korthia and started on my path of unlocking renown and farming up conduits and better gear.
It honestly didn’t take long for that character to be normal SoD ready, so I can’t imagine what it’s going to be like with all the new restrictions lifted once servers come up.
If I could change one thing from my time going from fresh 60 to 210 ilvl, it would be conduit drops. I must have the worst luck because I managed to unlock all blood, unholy and the full list of utility conduits before I picked up even a single frost. I know that it’s possible to target in dungeons and raids, but just from me casually doing everything I could, including the ones that popped up on WQ, my luck was terrible.
Feel dizzy…that’s what happen to me when I cap max lvl on alts. So many quest, so many To-Do, feels like going everywhere and nowhere at same time. Lack of content? No, lack of structure, lack of coordination, lack of logic…and always too many worthless things to do because content should be enhanced to be of value to alters or new Pj’s but is not
On my alts that I hit 60 with, which so far is 6 on two accounts, I literally just log off. I park them next to a raid or dungeon that I am farming a mount for and thats the only thing I use them for
I hop over to a character with a lot of gold and buy as much of the latest crafted gear as I can to get a decent set out of the gate, rather than having to wait for a piece of gear to finally show up or wait for the RNG gods to finally be nice.
