Design for reusability. Content during leveling doesn't matter because designers don't make it matter.

How do you re-use old content? Difficultly settings AKA heroics. Also, level specific achievements.

All of WoW's old world instances/raids is obsolete. All of those man-hours spent designing the zone, creating the art, putting in sound, scripting encounters, it's all wasted now. But what if you could do BWL on heroic? epic? fabled? Give a special title for doing it at 80? Give an even more special title for doing it at 60? If there were a set of achievements that required you to be level 60 and would award you a legacy items, people would level up 60's and clear all of the old content.

You heard it here first. Heroic MC/BWL/AQ that rewards you with Tier Legacy armor. People would do it and they would fucking love it.
