Help! Returning player, to start fresh or push through?

I faced a similar situation, got back into the game after an 18 month break in November. However both my accounts were level 80 and top 100 (one was top 10). Given your roster I would start again.

If you are feeling patient and willing to hold off going all in for 2 months I would suggest following the perfect guide to the perfect start approach in the guides section.
