There’s a case to be made that Durotar, the WoW Classic starting zone for Orcs and Trolls, is the most famous starting zone in the game—even more so than the historic Elwynn Forest. More players have trekked through Durotar than probably any other zone in the game, whether they were leveling a new character or making their way to the Horde’s capital city of Orgrimmar. Contrarily, though, there’s also a case to be made that Durotar is the game’s “worst” starting zone, and players on the WoW Classic subreddit would tend to agree.
In a post to the subreddit earlier today, WoW players debated which of the game’s original six starting zones is the “worst” and a solid majority of players in the comments agreed that Durotar was toward the bottom of that list, largely due to its visual components being uninteresting and relatively bland.
