out leveling content?

I seem to be out leveling content. I fil all the hearts and points of intrerest as well as skill point in a zone, and I'm too low of a level to continue on. Baddies are several levels ahead of me. I've done all the group events, many several times over. What gives. Seems like they need more quest.

goto your capital city - goto Asura gate for Lions Arch - go visit another racial area
dont worry about spoiling the game for other alts

Doesn't seem to be that many choices past level 25. You are pretty much have to zones in a particular order:
1-15: Zones adjacent to all major cities (there are 4 since Rata Sum and the Grove seem to share a zone for this)
15-25: Kessex Hills, west of Kessex Hills, west of Wayfarer Foothills and north of Plains of Ashford
25-35: Gendarran Fields
30-40: South of Blazeridge Steppes (this doesn’t seem right position-wise but that’s what I seem to see), Timberline Falls
35-45: Valley Headland
40-50: East of Timberline Falls, Blazeridge Steppes
50-60: NW of Blazeridge Steppes, south of Timberline Falls
55-65: Sparkfly Fen
60: Island SW of Lion’s Arch
60-70: The zone with the volcano SW of Ancient Dwarflands, Regrown Flame
70-75: NE Orr
70-80?: Northernmost Shiverpeaks zone (with the big lake)
75-80: NW Orr
80: W Orr

worth noting
the higher level content has more DEs for experience and dungeons begin at level 30
I assume the Op is under level 30, or correct me if im wrong

not true my level 6 sylvari is totally not in the same zone as my level 10 asura
Isn t this the content that you re supposed to do at end game, which makes GW2 so great. I too out leveled areas, and bounced around areas to an appropriate level. I can guarentee, if I ever hit max, I won t want to go back.

Watch that, it explains everything quite clearly.
If all you want to do in this game are quests (i.e. hearts, and the ocassional dynamic event), then that's fine. However the game is designed for people to be doing a variety of things. There is actually a lot to do, and while you can limit yourself to only 1 or 2 things, it will require you to branch away from the main areas and quest in other zones at times.
Furthermore, quests get more scarce in higher lvl zones, so it won't hurt to start getting used to the game not being reliant on heart quests. They are there to transition you into the game. They aren't the main source of content.
ANET will be adding *new* DE content for all levels
you dont want to see new content because it exists in a zone you did before?

You are right, Asuras start in Metrica, Sylvaris in Caledon forest.
The info is 2 years old, CF was patched into the alsa a year ago.
No, it is content you can do at endgame if you want to but do as much of it as you need to level up.
My theif got to 16 fine in Sheamoor without repeating much stuff, have you really gotten everything? (It say so on your map).
You could also craft yourself up a level or 2, or go into the mst and pvp level it if you wnt to do something different.
If all you do is go from points to points on your map and then hope to be ready for the next one, I think that"s probably impossible. The game is not built around quests like others, where they can calculate that after doing all quest from Hub A and B, people are ready to move to hub C.
There are events that may (or may not) happen when you go through a zone, etc. so while you may end up with 100% map, you may have miss a lot of content . Also, there are jumping puzzles, hidden caves with chests,etc. that are not marked on your map, so you got to explore more in depth.
ive been leveling 3 chars (2 are level 20) -- i do not pvp, i do not craft
i exclusively PVE, I harvest nodes, i do occasional DEs, hearts, vistas
the only thing i try to always do, if its local to me, are the skill challenges
the only thing i find redundant are getting the waypoints and skill challenges -- everything else is optional and lets me skip around while I visit different racial areas
I cannot speak for the regions above level 25 yet

Well you are goign to other racial areas too right? i tried that but it is going to kill all freshness of area when i roll an alt. So i have been avoiding that too.
However, this problem can be solved by triggering DE's in lower areas and maybe increase amount of heart quests.
yes i visit other racial areas while PVEing but my characters choose to do different hearts / events
i do not do the same thing in each racial area w different characters
theres some mandatory overlap (like the waypoints and skill challenges i mentioned)
but i skip around randomly w each character i play while visting several racial areas -- and it feels new enough for me

Personal story
Lots of DE's
Exploring and harvesting
Crafting
Hearts
Zero pvp yet. Secret is to engage in other activities. Personal story and crafting/harvesting pay xp quite well
How can you be out levelling the content when youre clearly underlevelled for the content? *confuzzled*
Anyways! On my ranger alt, I just explored Queensdale and by the time I felt like I fully explored it, I was already 18 so I dont really understand being underlevelled....Did you just run up to all the hearts and POI and vistas and skill points then did them without exploring at all or talking to the npcs?

So which one is it? Those are two opposing things.
this already happened to me
a friend asked for me to join them in a different racial area - and i had no waypoints for the zone

That's not an exhaustive list, and that map you linked is old.
At launch, GW2 offers 5 unique starting zones that lead to 4 unique level 15-25 zones (the Sylvari and Asura share one.) After that, there are 3 completely distinct paths to 60. From there, there are 2 distinct paths to 80.
That said, just because a zone says it stretches from 25-40, for example, doesn't mean that 100% completion of that zone will net you 15 levels. The beauty of GW2's downleveling system is that they can make a zone that would give you 5 levels in any other MMO--say a 35-40 zone--and stretch out the lower level requirement to 25, making it more accessible to more players. Level 35 players venturing there for the first time will still feel like they're exploring a brand new, high level territory because the content is new and still challenging.
THAT said, you can get infinite levels in any zone because there are dozens of events, many of which you probably haven't seen by just 100% completing the map, and all of which are repeatable should you be inclined to do so (though that will surely begin to feel "grindy.")
