Just a simple zone question

[Calroth Stilgar]

   Is there a list that tells you which zones are which tier? I was just wondering.<div></div>

Problem with that list is range. Like Feerott starts at about 37-38, and only goes to about 45ish (if that high). Everfrost and Lavastorm are about 43ish and up, though Lavastorm is basically group-only, as is MUCH of Everfrost. And Stormhold (off of a T2 zone) is basically 16-25, depending on how deep you are (maybe even higher). And SS is 46(ish) to 54(ish). Clefts is 51 to... 57? Some group, some solo in Clefts. PoF basically STARTS at 53/54, and goes to 60 for some.So you have to be somewhat careful of the barriers. They're hardly set in stone, and are NOT strictly teir-based, even if their tradeskill harvests are. And dungeons add another full wrinkle to the mix.
