lvl 14 E/mo getting really bored...

Please tell me the game gets better than what it is. I see no reason to continue to lvl 20 I dont know anyone that plays, and don't have a clue what I'm doing. I've done every single quest I can find, and done every mission as well. All with NPC's that suck so bad its not even funny. As for the player base. The only times i've grouped has been with 1 or two guildies who are lvl 20. The other 3 or 4 groups ive been in were like....train wrecks.

did anyone else felt this way when they first started playing?

I've played both EQ and WoW for about 3 years a piece and I really enjoyed playing both. Although WoW is going a direction I think sucks so I quit.

So what do I do? throw in the towel? or does it get better at lvl 20?

Well the player base is less focused on PUG grouping... it didnt use to be like that but unforuntaly, thats how it has become.......

what campaign are you in?
I don't believe you could have completed every mission and quest and not be level 20.
Where are you in that campaign?
If you are in an area that is designed for higher level people it wouldn't be that surprising if you have difficulty getting into groups and staying alive once there.

I would say it does get better, you can create much better builds available once you have progressed further and have elite skills and more skills available. But of course it depends really on why you aren't enjoying it at the moment.

I will mention though, that you can't possibly have finished every mission if you are only level 14. You get to level 20 about 1/3 of the way through the game. You really haven't seen anything yet. The game is very story-driven through the mission structure, so if that doesn't appeal to you, you're not playing the right game.

what game you playing in??
were are you atm??
get a better guild - if you think the members are like train-wrecks?

yes hench AI is bad - get used to it - but its 10fold then 90% of players...

learn to play if you don't know what your doing?! play with people / chat in outposts / talk to experienced guildies...

and of course get to lvl20 the game gets better as you progress - its just getting to lvl20 that sucks - either though it can be done in a day if you power-grind :P

I have done every quest/mission available at my level, except 1 mission that i've died on like 500 times, I was hoping to gain a few levels so that I dont have to beg some retard to help me finish it.

I am also in Prophecies.

To be honest prophecies is the most boring of the campaigns so that might be part of the problem. The main deal I think is your guild, I'm guess you just picked up with some random guild from local chat?

telling you that it gets better, also, what district are you playing at?

You see, guild wars is good because it is creative, in pve, there are so much ways you can play and make up your builds so they work, as you progress through the game you should fine some players to join you, although large teams are very rare in guild wars, apart from Ursan groups which are organized by alliances or guilds to vanquish areas, do hm elite and non elite missions, thanks to the introduction of customizable npcs called heroes (and trust me, when you will start messing with your and your hero builds you will never stop doing that ) you can still get several players to join you depending on how large the area is and have very fun time killing stuff.

When you get to level 20 which is fast, go through a campaign, unlock hard mode and will start grinding titles it would be so much fun, for now, try to find a huge big mature profesional PvE guild a be active there, it always helps and when you start playing at higher level i would be very fun.

In the rest try geting some friends, and if you need help/groups write it here or pm someone, people usually help.

Proph. I just got to yaks. My guild is ok. though most of them are a bit unhelpful, the leaders are great but i still hate begging for help though., I think they are all lvl 20 anyway, In wow a 99.99% of lvl 70s wouldnt even return a tell to you if you were under lvl 66.

sounds good. Where can i find one of these huge helpful guilds? I've been in like 3 guilds but due to no people online I just left them after like 1 day. Its amazing how fast people will try to snag you if youre not in a guild.

im also in district America 1...i think =D

This reminds me of when I was new to the game. I had an ele, and levelled him up to about lv 15 just staying in Ascalon, thinking that was all there was to the game. I was about to quit when i started playing missions, at which point i arrived at Lions Arch and was like OMG!!! This is amazing lol

Anyway point is you're probably not exploring all the game has to offer. When you do, I'm sure you'll enjoy it a lot.

whats the point of missions?

Try and find a guild off guru, random guilds advertising in local chat are usually bad, the point of missions is to progress through the story line.

Because they get you to new areas, and they're crazy fun to play.

If you're just power-leveling in Ascalon, you're playing the game wrong.

^AGREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED 1000000000000%

ALRGHHH, I hate the campaign, trust me Methal, prophecies s the longest, dumbest and most boring campaign there is in game, It has EXTREMELY stupid henchies with EXTREMELY stupid skill setups so hero/henching proph is so much harder especially on HM were you get bashed by anomally strong melee buffed by some annoying prot spell or a dazillion of migrane mesmer mobs or whatever and the only thing your monk henchies can do is spam woh or something while other henchies are just useless to take, so basically you are left in four, you and your heroes, with not so vst low level grouping in this game you should have a good guild that can help you or just group with you so you get the idea, so if you are uite bored of it now dont worry, it is normal for 85% of all people doing it, get yourself together, get a good guild and try to finish it though, then buy Nightfall or GW:EN so you et yourself some heroes, and you will defo feel the difference in your playstyle and fun you would get, even getting factions and playing it would feel deffrene though you should get hold of heroes from nf or gwen as fast as you can.

nope, there's nothing more. because you are looking for the wrong thing.

Yup. I was sooooooo tired of the scenery in Ascalon, and I was pretty happy to get to Yaks, and then to Lion's Arch. Keep doing the missions, and if your guildies don't mind helping...at least get help for the mission that you're stuck on.

In Lion's Arch, you learn about capturing skills (I think from there, you're not capturing ELITE skills, but regular ones...)--which can alter the game notably, as you start diversifying your builds.

I felt like half the game early was learning to synergize skills, to kill a little faster, a little smarter, after each mission or quest.

If you want to speed the game up, just play the missions, and ignore the side quests. If you want to enjoy how rich the game world is, do the side quests, explore, walk around and kill, try to uncover your map.

And to answer your last question: Yes, it gets better at level 20. The last 6 or 8 missions in the game, skill capping, and hard mode vanquishing, will hopefully alter your boredom.

If your guildies don't want to help you when they don't have anything important to do, quit them. Really. In GW while PuGs can be really stupid (though I've had one yesterday which was so awesome that it made me like Maguuma), guildmates are the ones you want to rely on.
Look for a good friendly guild (no need for it to be huge, you'll probably change anyway), and not by the "lf a guild"-in-local-chat way. Look on forums, talk to people, etc.

Also, Proph's beggining is quite boring. It gets better when you'll get to the Desert.

Well, if you were online we could go do something right now!

If you're in Yak's Bend, part of your problem may be that you've got several quests in your quest log that pile on the enemies in Traveler's Vale. The best thing to do if that's the case is to drop all but one and then do each of them one at a time. (Yes, the quests will be available at the NPC you got it from)

To proceed in the story-line, do the Primary quests; they'll take you to the next mission area.

First of all get in a guild that you like! Second get more campaigns, more the better. I dont really see GW that fun unless you have all campaigns; from my friends experience who owns Proph and Factions. I recommend Eotn for a band of heroes and Ursan skill (lotta groups demand ursan), then you wont need to get a group for every single little thing.
