I'm afraid to look online because of spoilers, but can anyone give a list of which maps to explore from easiest to hardest. I like doing things in order, because I don't want to go to a map that was meant for earlier levels dropping noob loot. I've unlocked a bunch of maps at the war table. I've been playing for over 50 hours, but I feel like I've barely scratched the surface. Thanks for the help :-)

You can use the power it takes to unlock maps as an indicator. The higher the power needed, the stronger the enemies. Apart from that, here are the enemy levels I got. The lower limits in Crestwood, the Exalted Plains, the Hissing Wastes and Emprise du Lion are estimated since I went there overleveled, based on the assumption that the level range is at least 4 levels wide:

 

Enemy levels based on my experience:

Spoiler

Hinterlands: 3-9, some L12 rifts

Storm Coast: 4-11, some L12 rifts

Fallow Mire: 8-12

Oasis: 9-12

Exalted Plains: 8-11. Some regions or enemy types up to 15,

Crestwood: 8-11. Some regions 15.

Emerald Graves: 14+, lower limit likely. Some areas 16+, one L20+ rift.

Hissing Wastes: 15-19

Emprise du Lion: 16-22

 

Edit:

Dragons have their own levels, sometimes different from the rest. And the difficulty of fighting a level X dragon is by no means comparable with the difficulty of fighting other level X enemies. Here are the levels of the dragons I have seen:

Spoiler

Hinterlands 13, Hissing Wastes 19, Emprise du Lion 21/21 (there are two), Emerald Graves 17, Exalted Plains 17.

[Shaftell]

Thank you very much!!! You've been most helpful :-)

[Ieldra]

Note that I was overleveled for some maps, so the lower limits are sometimes estimated. They may be lower. The upper limits should be mostly correct, except for Emprise du Lion, where I suspect there is no upper limit.

Great list with one minor quibble that all bets are off with high dragons.  There's at least one in each of most of those zones, and they range from level 13 to 23.  Most are in line or a level higher than the most powerful things in an area, but some are much higher than the average level and in one case I found one a few levels lower than the creatures in the area.  

 

Luckily, high dragons never chase you far off the map, and tend not to aggro unless you get really close in.

Very helpful list - I didn't cotton on to the power points being indicative of level at first and went to Emprise du lion at lvl 12 

[Ieldra]

I've added the levels of the dragons I know.

I actually know that list off by heart, having spent the last two days fighting them - unless they change by platform, difficulty, or level

 

Spoiler

Hinterlands 13

Storm Coast 20

Western Approach 15

Crestwood 13

Exalted Plains 17

Emerald Graves 17

Hissing Wastes 19

Three in Emprise du Lion - 20, 21, 23

 

I got all ten, confirmed I had all 10 in the collections page, but my trophy on PS4 never popped

[Shaftell]

I have another question if someone doesn't mind answering for me. Is it better to at least visit all the maps before moving on to the main missions or should I do main missions and then explore maps. Or does it really not matter?

Three Dragons in Emprise du Lion, the third is lvl23.

It's also quite different from the other two, in what ways I will not disclose.

[NRieh]

 

went to Emprise du lion at lvl 12

How did it go? Because I also had no idea that it's some sort of 'high-level' location, I was going there with my lv14\15 party.

Probably, I'd rather pick some other spot first. Why don't they sign them in any way I wonder?.... ((

I did the same thing (well, mostly the same, I don't think I was lvl12 as well, maybe a bit higher, had Hinterlands and Crestwood done by then)

Got my six o'clock handed over to me a few times, even though I have the best of the best Red Jenny to thank for dealing with a Fade Rift way above my level.

(Seriously, SHE is who brings in Jars of Bees. I have like every other boss battle, and some regular fights to thank her for, just because of that. Plus, dem archery skillz...)

[Absafraginlootly]

What level is western approach (dragon excluded)? It's not on the list.

[Ieldra]

What level is western approach (dragon excluded)? It's not on the list.

Up to 15 in most areas. Upper limit may be 11 around the starting area. I don't know the lower limit.

[XMissWooX]

I managed to do Emprise du Lion at level 13 (I didn't go over the bridge). I was playing on Casual though.
There are some pretty tough fights, especially through the keep, but it is doable.

Well, there's still the levelling issue...

 

Plus, storywise, some areas do give you logical reasons to go to others. If that's the sort of thing you want to get right, here is the mission order I recommend:

 

Spoiler

Hinterlands

Storm Coast

Fallow Mire

Forbidden Oasis

Exalted Plains

Crestwood

Western Approach

Emprise du Lion

Emerald Graves

 

The Empress' Ball can logically be done whenever you like, and may be left until last. You will be overlevelled, but there isn't a lot of combat in it anyway. 

 

Can't comment on the Hissing Wastes as not done that yet.

[katzenkrimis]

RPG's funnel you into areas.  Often for good reason.  The main one being that you simply aren't tough enough yet.

 

Never got that feeling in this game, though. You can play this game illogically, since it's so easy. 

 

Especially if you have upgraded bees, potions, or higher tier focus abilities.

 

For example, a tier 3 thousand cuts ability used with your rift nuke, can take a level 19 dragon to less than half health.

 

You can kill a dragon in record time using very few abilities, and with little to no effort.  

 

And, since dragons are supposed to be the toughest enemy in the game, the rest of the mobs you meet will feel easy.  Since there are never more than 5 in a group.  Often there are only 3.  

 

Craft your own armour and weapons, upgrade the right perks, and you can go wherever the heck you want.
