Kalimdor has always been a nice break after spending too long in the Eastern Kingdoms. It’s always had a feeling of something more exotic, every zone is completely different from the classic vision of a fantasy world; it makes a good foil to the Eastern Kingdoms.

Azshara also has to be one of my favorite zones, mostly because out of all the zones in WoW it honestly feels like a frontier. There’s no major towns, just a flight path. There aren’t any major quest hubs, though quests from outside the region sometimes bring you there. You can just ride around for hours, taking the sights in, and never encounter anyone else.

I love Azshara as well – just me – tons of gorgeous scenery and about four or five hunter-bots grinding blue dragonkin for hours and hours at a time….

Beyond that – my favorite zone of all time is Stranglethorn Vale on a PvP server. All of my favorite memories of vanilla WOW came from there.

I’m gonna list my all-time hated zone first: Ganklethorn Vale. Granted, I play on PvE servers so the ganking is practically non-existent but I hate this zone. First, horde are screwed if they need to get back to a major city as the only the only way they can get to major city is to zepplin back to Org or UC from Grom’gol. Alliance: 3 minute flight to Stormwind.

The size: Back before they changed the mount levels, STV was hell on foot. Not wide but extremely long from top to bottom. Getting from Hemet Nesingwary Jr. at the top back to Grom’gol or Booty Bay was an adventure in itself.

Zul-Gurub: Venture too far east while leveling and you’re facing level 60 elites at the entrance. Whoops.

And I’m ashamed to admit this as a predominate horde player but Teldrassil is probably one of my favorite zones. It’s small compared to Tirisfal Glades or Durotar so you don’t have to wander all over the damn place for quests, the scenery is beautiful and Darnassus is probably one of the most gorgeous cities in the game. The music is nice to boot.

The Barrens: Pro tip: Turn off General chat.

ROFL! You don’t like Barrens chat? It’s famous! Chuck Norris will be looking for you now. This was an awesome post, I agree with you about most of the areas and now I feel a need to go revisit some!
