Unique Zones

I'd like to see more environmental hazards and effects and not just in dungeons either - we could have whirlpools in shallow/deep water if we ever get the ability to swim. We could have an underground zone where you need to navigate through lighting torches along the way.

Stuff like that would make 'Diadem' type content much more engaging in my opinion.

In places like the Diadem is fine, it is optional content. I got my mount and have not set foot back there since, did not enjoy it at all.

Even in the open world it would be optional content or close to it. There are dozens (hundreds, maybe) of places in the open world of HW (not to mention ARR) that I haven't stepped foot in since I was leveling. If one part of one zone had a mechanic you didn't like, it seems easy enough to avoid it.

Yup that is fine as long as they don't put main story quests or job quests in that area and force people into it then it would be fine.
