Hi folks,
Nice forum!

I have a few questions. I am new to the game. I am wondering if it's possible that I skipped the first few missions in Asaclon and somehow found my way out to the Breach and Piken ? I don't recall a cut scene as described in things I have read about the north wall mission.
Is there a place in game to see the actual quests and missions you've done?
I am cueently a level 11 ELementalist/Necromancer, but ironically enough I can't seem to get to alot of the places on the map that it seems I should have already been to. I got wrapped up in doing the quests from Piken...
Can anyone help me get on track?
Thanks!!!

lol i did the same thing on my first character, got all the way to nolani before I found the first mission. The first mission is the Great Northern Wall, and you can get there by going to the NE of ascalon. Follow the signs. Then generally after every mission you finish you will end up in a city that has a quest labeled "primary" or be another mission, follow those to continue the story. After you finish the missions it shows a very recognizable shield with 1 or 2 swords on it, so look for those if you think you have done one already.

you didnt make it as far as you think. you can get a runner to take you through about 80% of the game without even walking into the great northern wall town.

and by NE of ascalon he means ascalon city.

Here's a silly question....Where can I find Capt Calhaan to see if I actually did the first mission or not. I have been running arond ascalon and northern wall for quite some time!

you can check if you did the first mission by hitting the M key and looking where the mission town is. the first mission is north-east of ascalon city and should look like a shield. if it has a sword behind it then you did the mission.

also, calhaan is in the mission.

The Great Northern Wall outpost is unique in that it is attached to a town, i.e. Ascalon. You don't leave town at all, just go up the stairs behind Sir Tydus and turn right, then just follow the path along.

you can actually skip lots of the missions in prophecies and get most of the way thru the map....lots of people are 'run' to LA (so they can leave for factions or nightfall), others have done the starting missions soo many times they are just tired of them and skip past them. But check out the link quickmonty gave, it will help you I think.
