Also, a good place for you to make money is outside seitung harbor. Go in NM and kill the sensali guys there, use a dagger build, I'd suggest something along the line of this:

You can change your secondary profession later on in the game.
These sensali drop feathers, and if you complete a run you should get ~70-90 feathers (make sure to salvage their Feathered crests and scalps for more feathers) per run which should take ~10minutes. 250 feathers = 10-11k, so that's pretty easy money..
Enjoy the game? What I enjoy most in MMOs is endgame. I don't know what endgame is in GW, sadly.

Ok, kill sensali for feathers. Gotchya. One question that I have about buying and selling is: where do I sell stuff? In WoW (sorry for uttering the forbidden acronym) there's a thing called the Auction House. It allows plaeyrs to put up auctions for other players to buy. Is there anything like this in GW or do I just have to advertise in trade?

I have a level 13 elementalist in Prophecies but I find that it's a massive grind to get levels. When I started this toon, I was level 13 within 3 hours. I have 30+ hours on my ele yet I'm only level 13. I like the prophecies story but it just takes way too long to level.

No, GW does not have an auction house, but word says GW2 might have one..
Usually people sell their stuff in Kamadan, Jewel of Istan or Lion's Arch (not Kaineng Center, that died when NF came out). But selling your feathers should be easy in Seitung Harbor too. I know a couple of people that go there to buy the feathers straight of the farmers If you want to sell stuff, you have to go to american districts btw^^

For the endgame, GW endgame exists out of multiple elite missions or areas. The Underworld, The Fissure of Woe, The Deep, Urgoz Warren and Domain of Anguish. All of which can be easily farmed with the right team build (whereas, when I started playing GW, clearing UW took 2h+ ), but they are pretty tough to learn, especially if you're new to the game.
UW, FoW and DoA are the most commonly played endgame areas, Urgoz and Deep are still done by a very select number of guilds. There are all sorts of ways to clear the areas, and all yield different rewards, worth quite a bit, sometimes. The easiest way to get in contact with a certain endgame is Glaiveway in DoA (although I despise it with every fiber in my body) but it's the easiest way for inexperienced people to do it, and it's gonna be very profitable compared to your standards.

Yeah, Proph is mostly a nostalgia campaign lately, it's a tough chunk to get through, and can get boring at times, so if I were you, I'd just play proph for the lore every now and again..

I you didnt receive your free Tournament Reward points yet, talk to High Priest Zhang in the Great Temple of Balthazar to get 50 Tournament Reward Points, then talk to Tolkano (also in GToB) & exchange the points for Zaishen Keys. You will need to register your account with Tolkano first I believe. You can then sell the keys for 5.5 - 6k each.

Yes, you sell them to other players who are trying to get at least level 3 in their Zaishen title. This title will give you the required PvP title for your HoM.

Well, after you finish all campaigns, go back through and make sure you have masters reward for each mission in factions/nightfall, and did the bonus for proph. then do it all again in HM.
Now, get every title you can. Also, go here:http://hom.guildwars2.com/en/#page=welcome
and see what you can do to get rdy for Guild Wars 2.
Also, if you've finished proph, start the war in kryta quest line.

If you're looking forward for GW2, do the HoM-related stuff. That's endgame stuff right there, and your efforts carry over into GW2 as rewards.

Also do Nahpui Quarters so you can have the option to change 2nd prof on the fly.

It's 5.5-6.5k each so it's an easy 55-65K...

tip: don't buy steel (or materials in general) from the trader, buy from players for halfway between the trader's buy and sell price

for steel you can even pull off 100g per steel since there's an oversupply of it

Looking forward? I'm damn near ecstatic. I just finished Northern Allies and got another tapestry so now my M.O.X is registered 4 points so far lol. By the way, are there better daggers aside from t he 7-17 damage range? Like purple/gold/green daggers? Also, how do I upgrade my Heroes' armour? Thanks.

EDIT: Yay keys sold. You can only hold 100k plat at a time in GW? :O

On your "person" yes, that's the max. But you can deposit up to any amount in your Xunlai chest, where it'll be available to any character on your account.

Euh lol? Really? Your xunlai chest can hold max 1,000,000 gold. A character can hold 100k..

And, the max damage for daggers is 7-17, the only difference you might wanna look for are the mods on your dagger.

And, upgrade hero armor, you can use runes and insignias on it just like on your own armor, go in your inventory screen and move to one of the heroes in your party and you can rune them

7-17 is "max damage" for daggers but adding mods to your weapons will increase their overall damage output. Rarity/Colour of items doesn't affect their damage but non-inscribable weapons that aren't gold cannot drop with "max inherents", that is 15^50 multipliers etc.

To upgrade hero armour you'll need to add the hero to your party, acquire a rune that is compatible with their profession and then apply it to their armour in the same way you would you own. In order to view the hero's armour you need to click the little thumbnail of them at the top of your inventory.
