The latest patch 7.3.5 Wow Legion expansion will featured level scaling zones that will allow higher level player to go back to earlier zone of the expansion and still face a challenge. Blizzard in their opinion have decided to implement this feature to the whole WoW with all zones from the base game up to latest zone featuring scaled enemies level and rewards.
Don't jump your gun yet!
Not all zones scaled the same way. A level 100 player won't return to starting zone and face level 100 mobs because this will undermines the feeling of progression and fun. Every zone will feature certain limit of monster scaling for example, Outland and Northrend will scale between level 60 and 80.
This kind of system was used in many RPG/ARPG and certain group of people like this feature while some other incline to have fixed monster range without scaling, mostly due to what i mentioned above where the scaling will undermines the feeling of progression.
This is big things since it will change how power leveling works and guide works. I imagine since how most power leveling and guide capitalize the quest xp reward, it will have some effect but may not be as prominent. We will see.
The patch will hit PTR soon so you will get to taste it soon.
