4th Starting City-State in 1st Expansion

[EdwinLi]

You do know even with expansions new will still need to start with 2.1 story. So, what I'm saying is most likely any new classes will probably be quest unlocked and not available at character creation.

SE never said Expansion content will be exclusive to lvl 50+ contents.

They can introduce a new starting city-state to serve as new starting content for new characters.

Currently they have mentioned we will be getting a New Race in 1st expansion but it is still possible to introduce a new starting city-state for new characters.

I'd hoped it would have been Ishgard back in 1.0 but that's clearly not happening (we know it's coming in the expansion but as a high level thing no doubt) and Ala Mhigo is ruins, though they could add it in as an expansion - players starting there as part of the reconstruction effort etc (we'd have to liberate it from the garleans 1st though in the main story I'd imagine)

Ya looking at the current lore of City-states Sharlayan currently is the only one lore wise that can serve as a new starting city-state for new characters.

Ishgard lore wise has locked their gates to Adventurers until 3.0 storyline. The Gate into Ishgard is also in a lvl 35 - 45 area as well.

Ala Mhigo lore wise is currently a Garlean Fortress and most likely won't be liberated until 3.0 story.
