I returned to WoW after ~15 years. I got The War Within Epic edition and boosted my hunter to 70. I thought it will be like in Diablo 3 and I will be able to travel across the whole world and all monsters will be at my level. I’m currently locked in the Dragon Isles and I have no idea what to do. My hunter is supposed to be a farmer. I want to collect achievements and pets. I want to use a bow, but I got a gun while boosting. I want to level my professions (skinning + herbalism and secondaries). I don’t want to play the endgame yet. What should I do?

I cant play the game because I’m “forced” to play the game

How can I return to the Eastern Kingdoms/Kalimdor from the Dragon Isles? My Hearthstone is reset to the Dragon Isles. I need some kind of portal or a ship probably.
In valdrakken there will be a portal to Orgrimar in the seat of the aspects building.
From there you should land in a portal room where you can see portals to various areas.
Wow isn’t really like Diablo in that regard, since you boosted, you’re stronger than all the mobs in the old places and they will be trivial.

You can still do those things. Being 70 just means you have access to everything now, even the newest stuff.
It might’ve been more suitable for you to level your character the normal way first.

Inside the Seat of the Aspects in Valdrakken should be a portal to Stormwind. Alternatively there’s a boat from The Waking Shores, close to Wingrest Embassy, to Stormwind Harbor.
They’re a Night Elf, asking for a way to get to Eastern Kingdoms. Why send them to Orgrimmar?

That’s on you 
did you expect a boost would explain the game you learn by levelling?
Want a bow instead of a gun? Have you checked the mailbox? Your bow it’s there. You would know if you did the introduction… oh wait, you didn’t…
Good point, I never really twigged the race. (Or did I?) 
Hello! Welcome back!
You can get decent bow in The Nokhud Offensive dungeon.
To access dungeon press “i” on keyboard, or click on the green eye icon in the UI.
Select dungeon finder, then specific dungeon.

15 years is a very long time to not play WoW and then throw yourself in the deep end. I would recommend either trying out Classic for the game you remember and/or starting from a level 1 character to learn how retail now works. It is -very- different.
You can transmog your gun to look like a bow, I also hate guns and my troll will always wield a bow.
Hopefully you’ve found your way back to Stormwind from the capital in the Dragon Isles (Valdrakken) now as you didn’t want to try any of the current expansion.
You should visit Pandaria and unlock your farm in Halfhill in Valley of the Four Winds. It’s just a mini game of growing things but you might like it if you are a farmer.

Getting into wow this late into expansion with no friends is gonna be tough.

I gave it some thought. This game is much larger and more complex than Diablo 3 which I played in recent years. I have to research everything carefully and patiently. I’m out of date 15 years and even back then I was very casual. It will take some time to L2P. Thank you! 
Just ask away, or go out there and explore.
Just have fun.
You get a spear, a bow and a rifle with the boost… just need to hit the mail and unlock the box there.

Oh that’s good to know!
World of warcraft doesn’t currently have level scaling with your current levling accross zones like other mmo games. So no you wont be able to boost your character and do old content at the same level as your boosted character is. (You will be too high level for old content with a boosted character)
However once you level your character to 70 you should be able to collect all your achivements and pets. Get your bow and level your proffessions freely.
You can also actually pick up any wanted professions you’d like and start working on them right now as you level trough Dragonflight and start right away working on those.
But yeah… World of warcraft does not have level scaling with old world content sadly.
If you talk to Chromie in your capital city your also free to choose witch expansion you wanna level up in from level 1-60 if I am not completely off the charts here. But after that then yeah… You have to go trough the Dragonflight expansion.

I decided to uninstall and cancel my subscription. This can save me 10k+ hours in the coming years, which I can use CONSTRUCTIVELY. I will use that time to invest in my “biological character”. That might be the most heroic decision one can do in WoW. Damage is NOT king.
