The issue I have with the new areas (well, Wake Hallow anyway, haven't tried the others) is that the framerate is abysmal. Not quite as bad as the fire areas in the Fawkes day event but pretty close. My framerate regularly drops into the low single digits there with just a couple monsters on screen, which makes managing any kind of a fight there a real pain, even with my engineer, whose firepower is largely server-side based (i.e. bots) and not something I have to aim myself.
For me, this pretty much kills any utility of these new zones. I can't imagine how impossible it would be to control my PC in a multiplayer battle in there. Maybe if they patch it so that I don't have to constantly cope with single digit FPS I would be more interested.
