After a few days, the World of Warcraft: Shadowlands pre-patch has breathed new life into Azeroth. While many players are busy testing out the gameplay updates and class changes, the long-awaited level squish means everyone can now pick where they want to level without having to abruptly leave because of scaling.

Thanks to Chromie Time, veteran players may choose any of the past 7 expansions to quest through from level 10 to 50. Although this scaling feature is enabled by speaking to Chromie within Orgrimmar or Stormwind, characters aren't limited to a single expansion and can switch at anytime for specific storylines or to mix up the leveling process. These adjustments have also caused some former endgame content zones to become later options for leveling
