Aside from hunts and gathering there is not much to do in the HW areas if you have already used most of your side quests to level your main to 60 like what I did when HW launched. Now on my alt classes i run dungeons or run fates in northern thanalan still. The areas have been dead for the longest time. Some of this has to do with the fates and how still grinding fates in Northern Thanalan is still more appealing than running fates in the new zones since the fates are closer together and you have a easier time following the player mobs from fate to fate because they are on foot. Also when HW launched the fates in the new areas gave less exp than in northern thanalan, player base caught on to this and no one touched the fates in the new areas. SE gave them a exp buff shortly after but the damage has been done...
