Story order after class quest?

[Jzson]

I've completed my class quest and now I have all the expansions available as well as the Ilum quest. What order am I supposed to do these in?

[krwz]

Ilum > Makeb > Microbinocular + Seeker droid missions (optimal, found on fleet) > Oricon > Prelude to Revan > Yavin > KotFE > KotET > Onslaught
This should pretty much cover it, I believe so...

Ilum - available from ship console (usually get it automatically after finishing class story)
The Black Hole - optional intro mission starts on fleet for this Daily Area
Section X - optional intro mission starts on fleet for this Daily Area, also leads to HK-51 companion mission.
Makeb (Rise of the Hutt Cartel) - 1st expansion, available from ship console
Macrobinocular and Seeker Droid missions - optional missions, begins on Coruscant/Dromund Kaas or fleet (warning: the first few missions are solo, but both end with HEROIC 4 missions that cannot be soloed)
CZ-198 - optional flashpoint missions on fleet for this Daily Area
Oricon - intro missions to unlock this Daily Area, available from ship console (warning: starts with solo missions but ends with an operation mission)
Forged Alliances (Prelude to Shadows of Revan) - available from ship console
Rishi and Yavin 4 (Shadows of Revan) - 2nd expansion, available from ship console
Ziost - epilogue to Shadows of Revan and setup for Fallen Empire, available from ship console, unlocks Ziost daily area after finishing the story.
Knights of the Fallen Empire - 3rd expansion, available from ship console
Knights of the Eternal Throne - 4th expansion, available from ship console
Fractured Alliances (also called Traitor arc or Betrayer arc) - ties up lose ends after Eternal Throne and unlocks Iokath Daily Area, available from ship console
Ossus (Jedi Under Siege) - prelude to Onslaught, required to start Onslaught (5th expansion), available from ship console

Note that for the most part you can't return to previous stories if you choose to skip them. For example, you can choose to start Fallen Empire if you are level 60, but then can't later do the Forged Alliances or Shadows of Revan. The choices in those stories get auto-decided for your character if you skip ahead. So it's a good idea to do all the story on your main. Once you get to alts, you might skip ahead if you just want to do endgame.

Black Hole, Section X, Macrobinoculars, Seeker Droid, CZ-198, Oricon, and Makeb can all be done any time. Everything else has to be done in order. The game warns you about this and makes you click Yes to skip, so don't worry about accidentally skipping anything.

Edit: Forgot all about Ziost. Added it to the list. Hopefully that is everything.
