I started back a toon to level in 9.1.5 to see how would be Island expedition as a source of leveling.
Long story short, they are fun until around 16-17. Past that the mobs get too much xp for a solo player to make it viable, they are too long to kill. Questing is faster.
Now here is my problem, to do IE, you have no other choice but to start the Tiragarde Sound questline, so Flynn goes behind the table.
Now I would like to level through BFA, but through Drustvar. I am level 25 now so I can ( No idea why blizz didn’t make all three zones available at the beginning like in Legion, but it is what it is )
I have done TS 60 times, but Drustvar only 2 or 3 times and I remember the story to be interesting.
But, you cannot pick Drustvar once you have chosen Tiragarde ( which you have the obligation to. ) Even dropping the TS questline won’t make the map available again until you have completely finished the TS story.
Anyone knows a workaround for this, or will I have to pick another expansion ?
The only thing I can think of is just knock out TS, which it sounds like you need it anyway to get Flynn parked where you want him.
The only other suggestion would be try making your way over to the Drustvar starting area and see if the quest to start removing the curse off that town is available, basically skipping the breadcrumb quest starting at the map.

Thank you for your help.
Sadly the quests aren’t there in Drustvar, and Flynn goes in position after the breadcrumb quest for TS, so I am basically left with the whole quest chain to do.
All of this comes from the fact that there is no logical explanation as to why Blizzard wouldn’t just Chromie Time and scale BFA like all other zones.
It’s weird because when BFA came out, you could begin anywhere in KT and Zandalar. Now they are forcing you in Zuldazar and TS

So weird… and… quite dumb, I agree! No logical reason to change that up like that!
I find TS kinda fun when I’m in the mood. But I like killing pirates and stuff, so that’s just me.
I get it though, if you’ve already done it a hundred times it’s like seeing Pirates of the Caribbean for the 50th time, after a while it can get old.
That’s exactly it, the questline for TS is indeed fun, but since I am an altoholic I can now tell every bit of dialogue off the top of my head, and since leveling is faster, you never get to do Drustvar and Stormsong, because if you add dungeon and bg queues, all you need to reach 50 is TS

So they changed how the map works? You used to be able to pick another zone after completing the intro quest in the first one you chose and you could start anywhere when BfA was current. I would go back to the map and choose another zone until I had all of them open. This is a weird thing to change.
Yup, you are forced to start in Tiragarde now after the intro. Drustvar is level 25 minimum and Stormsong is level 35 minimum. So if you wish to have the choice of the 3 zones you need to start BFA at 35.
However if you want to do island expeditions, you have to commit at level 10 to TS
