When and Why Should I Do Heroic/Mythic Raids?

Hey everyone, new player here. So I leveled my main (Frost Mage) to ilvl 258 by doing delves/dungeons, and wanted to give Heroic Raids a try. I was fairly confident as I was always in the top 5 dps in normal raids. However I was not accepted by any group for hours. The loot of Heroic Raids seem to be around ilvl 263, so this feels like it should be the next step for me, but I can't find a group. And if my ilvl were higher, then I wouldn't need the loots of Heroic Raids. Am I missing something? What ilvl should I realistically be expected to enter Heroic or Mythic Raids, and why should I do that assuming the drops will be lower than my current ilvl by then?

Hey everyone, new player here. I'm having a blast playing the game and decided to try different classes as well. I have a few questions related to the best way to level up alts. The information that I found online either seems to be outdated or they include terminologies that a new player fails to understand :) So I'd appreciate if you could help me with these questions, and I'd also appreciate it if you could answer as if I don't know anything about the game besides Midnight :)

  1. My understanding is that the most efficient way to level alts 1-80 is Timewalking Dungeons. However there doesn't seem to be any at the moment. Are there like a limited time event, and where can I see the schedule? Afaik the in game calender didn't show it but maybe I'm just blind.

  2. What would you say are the other efficient ways? Random dungeons seem to be good but kinda boring, is spamming side quests a better idea?

  3. I've heard that Cataclysm and WoD are good ways to level, but I am not sure how to access them. When I select Cataclysm at Chromie, she doesn't give me any direction. Is that the sidequests in the areas surrounding Stormwind? And why doesn't WoD appear at Chromie?

  4. I guess I can only access to Silvermoon at lvl 78? I've heard about the strat of doing delves and turning the quests in at lvl 87, but what should I do from 78-87? I already have enough renown to access the champion (I guess?) gear rewards, so would prefer something else than side quests

  5. For the future alts, what would you say is the most fun campaign to play? WotLK?

Thanks in advance ^^
