Hey!

Here’s the thing: I’m level 27. Some of the maps around my area (started as a Sylvari) are lvl 1-15. I get there is an aout-level mechanic, but I don’t get if, in the end, the EXPs I can get are less than average for this reason, so that the time investment is not worth.

I’m taking my time, so I don’t have any apparent reason to skip zones, but I can possibly let them for another character in terms of “suprirse” and just stick with zones of more appropriate levels.

Since major cities have the waypoint already activated, I don’t know if I shouldn’t just go there and start brand new areas.

Advices?

Do the areas. You get XP for your actual level not the lower downed level.
Pretty much everything in this game gives XP – killing, events, hearts, discovering vistas, raising a downed NPC or PC, harvesting all nodes, discovering new areas of the maps – all give XP.

Thanks mate, that’s my route in the end. xD

Are areas race-specific? So that (let’s say) I want to level an alt, I can start from completely different zones?

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Experience maybe you can find the desired information here. if you scroll down there’s a blue table.
I don’t know the exact calculations, but leveling in a lower level zone isn’t that bad, really. In fact, completing a map gives a big reward

Yes, starter areas are race specific however any race can do one at any level. Any area that is labeled 1-15 on the map is a racial starter area. You can either waypoint or run to them (you will have one waypoint open in each starter map) and do them on that char or you can leave those areas undone for a char of that race. It’s up to you and which you prefer.
