Stole this from the Soe boards, it reportedly went up on test:
*** Zones ***

The following zones are now Hot Zones providing new challenges and increased experience. Speak to Franklin Teek in the Plane of Knowledge to see what new tasks he has in store for you.

* Level 20 - South Karana
* Level 25 - Lake of Ill Omen
* Level 30 - The Twilight Sea
* Level 35 - Kedge Keep
* Level 40 - City of Mist
* Level 45 - Howling Stones
* Level 50 - Veksar
* Level 55 - Grieg's End
* Level 60 - Plane of Nightmares
* Level 65 - Kod'Taz, Broken Trial Grounds
* Level 70 - The Buried Sea
* Level 75 - Thalassius, the Coral Keep
* Level 75 - Ashengate, Reliquary of the Scale

* Apparently while performing some end-of-the-summer cleaning, the doors within Howling Stones were left unlocked. It may be some time before a maintenance crew can be sent there again to lock the doors up tight. Use this knowledge as you will.
* In addition, the spells protecting the entrance to Howling Stones have weakened, and adventurers of lesser skill and strength may find its halls now accessible.

Grieg's End is already too full on Mayong so that should be interesting.

My new Povar characters are going to be very happy as Lake of Ill Omen goes 1-30 easily, and I like killing there. Overall I like the list this time around.

Yeah, pretty good zones. I like them a lot better than the current ones, especially 60+. I love when it's the older zones.

There are several task/mission instances can't remember which for The Coral Keep. I wonder if Hot Zone xp carries through to instances?Smiley: dubious

Same question was asked on the Sony boards, answer from the community (not devs) was No, it'll only apply to the static zone.

Yeah, but some people I was grouped with in GE a few minutes ago were saying they were getting the same exp today that they were yesterday before the patch. I was getting about 7-8% regular exp off yellow mobs at 53, so it seemed pretty good to me.
