Go to http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Main_Page & look for "New player campaign guides ??? For first time players:" , there you have new player guides based on which campaign you started in.

Farming: kill somethings quickly & easy, repeat until bored. (Check farming forum for builds & locations).

Items: if its white name then most times you can just sell it to merchant. Modifiers aka "mods" on items & weapons are usually only valuable if its maximum bonus.
Nice/"cool" skin = more valuable. Generally low level monsters dont drop any max weapons or mods.

Go to http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Main_Page for extensive game information.

There is a section on basic play, another section on Heroes, another on quest/mission progression.

Armor can be bought from armor crafters (npc) in towns/outposts or from Collectors.

Farming is not against the rules. The quote in your #3 has to do with farming in Factions not Nightfall.

The "find all posts" feature does not work as far as I know.

The futher you get in the game the larger your team can be. At the start the quests are easier so people do them with heroes. A list of emotes (commands) can be seen here: http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Emotes

There is no list, you can click on the players name and copy it, then paste it into your party window to add the person to your party, this way you can then click on their name and you will move to them.

The servers are for the different countries that have GW and the districts are for different towns in the game. You can only have a certain number of people in one district so they make several so they do not get too busy.
The 'sort button' arranges your characters into alphabetical order (by name) or in order of whether they are PvE characters or PvP characters.

2. at lvl 6 i still have the equipament gave at begin, i changed only my weapon lol. How i get or buy better armor or things for D/R ?? i saw the forum but it look like in chinese for me yet

In the towns, look for Armor Traders. You will need gold and materials to buy the armor.

Farming requires doing something over and over to get an item or gold. The passage you have quoted means: You can easily kill Vermin (a type of creature) outside the town of Senji's Corner (a factions town), using a Warrior character, each time you do this you get about 1500g.

If you don't use it or don't think you need it then sell it. The merchant is easiest place to sell items. Later on when you get better items you can try selling in towns to other players.

If you want to do a specific mission or quest then ask in the town for anyone else who is doing the same quest or mission. Most of them require you to go somewhere and kill something.

5. how i set all my heroes to atack same target?

Whatever target you attack your heroes will attack also. You can target by pressing the Ctrl button + attack at the same time. Also your heroes have a skill bar which has a target symbol. If you click this then the hero will keep attacking that target.

That does not work for me either so it is not a bug that you have.

Added comment on armor:

Several people mentioned the wiki site.
You can get a list of armor collectors at
http://gw.gamewikis.org/wiki/Armor_c...rs_%28Istan%29

The armors they provide are good enough for the island.
Might take a little more time to get, but saves some gold.
When you are planning to make an other character, consider keeping the spare collectable drops for armor in your storage, so you don't have to collect them again.
