Where are the classics or any other expansion’s dungeons?
Because as a new character, the only expansion you’re allowed to level through up to 50 is BFA and it was previously stated that choosing (or in this case having it given to you) your expansion doesn’t prevent you from physically travelling to other areas to level but it does lock your dungeon choices to that expansion only.
If you were leveling through, say, Burning Crusade with Chromie time, those would be the only ones you could access as well.
For horde if you talk to chromie in the orgrimmar embassy you can choose which expansion to level up with and you get those dungeons. For instance, I chose mists of pandaria for my new vulpera and I get those dungeons
I’m sure alliance has an equivalent in a major city with an embassy
Only new players are forced to choose BFA the first time not new characters. I chose Pandaria and have the list of pandaren dungeons to queue for.
May I ask how? I saw no in your face selection option on my test NE hunter last night. Cart on rails to BFA is what I saw.
I admittedly did not click on every NPC or see what google had to say. Twas a fun post prepatch run where oddly I had no game issues…but wife and kid distractions in the background lol.
It’s not in your face. You’ve got to go find Chromie. She should be near the embassy in SW/Org.
Thanks, will try that out.
If you look on the map in Stormwind and go to the area near the house where you are introduced to all the allied races, on your way to the little pond where the Cataclysm portals are, you will see a large hourglass on the map and minimap when you’re close enough. This is Chromie. You speak with her and you can choose your expansion to level through. If you don’t choose, you will just level as per normal, jumping from one zone to the next as your level dictates.
You have to visit chromie. https://www.wowhead.com/guides/chromie-time-leveling-zone-expansion-scaling#:~:text=How%20to%20Activate%20Chromie%20Time,based%2C%20not%20account-wide.
As a sidenote: You may need to do the intro quest for Kul Tiras, my boyfriend and I were leveling new characters last night and we couldn’t interact with Chromie until we got the “Come Sail Away” achievement for doing the intro quests, then we were able to see Chromie Time on the map and interact with her properly.
i’m definitely not a new player. I don’t think we should be forced to do BFA stuff if I’ve been playing for over 10 years.
Open your adventurer’s guide with Shift + J and select the Timewalking quest. From there, you will be sent to Chromie in Stormwind/Orgrimmar to select which expansion you would like to level in.
Keep in mind, this will only give you access to dungeons from that expansion until you hit level 50.
And as a side note to the side note…
keen eyes may observe this is now cart on rails. My play around noob start test char has no area options off the map. She can only start in tiragarde sound. I found that off putting really.
I like to lead off with drustvar. Its not an option. at least not for me last night. Drustvar is the only area for alliance I liked. If I level here…Well I guess I get drustvar as a desert later for eating a crap dinner otherwise lol.
Probably will Chromie elsewhere though.
Yeah, each of the three zones is now locked behind levels, as a lvl30 I could do Tiragarde & Drustvar … but couldn’t do Stormsong until lvl35 - I’m also not a fan, not only are you limited then to the location but then limited to the zone…
