It’s conceivable that people who like to play Druids may now want to roll one on the opposite faction if they like the new forms well enough. However, switching from Alliance to Horde or vice versa is tricky stuff if you’ve primarily played only one side. The starting areas are completely different. The higher-level areas may have similar quest types but completely different quest givers and, what’s more, unfamiliar flight paths.

I found it extremely confusing once I got to Stranglethorn Vale as Alliance after leveling my main on Horde. I kept heading to the wrong camps and getting killed! Finally, I wised up with a new approach and things went more smoothly.
