Search on Alla didn't turn up anything, but I found these.

EDIT:The most recent seems to be from a patch message on April 12th. Here is someone's take on what is an appropriate level for each hot zone.

Quote:
The Warrens - Good till upper teens maybe. Technically could go past 20 but you'd be limited to a small set of mobs, mainly bats and the kobold king
Netherbian Lair - Teens to upper 20's
Echo Caverns - North entrance from Nexus->SH zone in good up to around 30, mainly for mid 20's (Needlites/etc). South entrance from nexus->SH zone in to upper 30's (underbulks.etc)
The Scarlet Desert - Low 40's
The Tower of Frozen Shadow - 30+ if you have good undead or CC spells. Can probably get to upper 40's if you manage to get all the keys
The Hole - 35, maybe 40+ to start, Still can find DB's before the waterfall at 60ish
The Grey - Why would you actually go here
Howling Stones - 45-60 according to Alla. Kinda neat zone, pay attention to all the no-rent stuff as those are the keys
The Halls of Betrayal (Chardok B) - Entrance stuff is DB to 62, haven't been very deep.

Yeah, those are still the actual hotzones.

(At least, SOE didn't mention any other zones in their patches since April 12th...)

I'm surprised that it wasn't Bubspeed who asked the question Smiley: lol

Was kind of hoping for a change with DoD but it didn't happen. Devs are probably ok with the set-uo as is and are afraid to change it and do soemthing unintended.

DoD Monster missions are by far the best xp at the moment.
