New to Guild Wars
Fraltieny
And I have to say I am a little disappointed. I've been playing this game for about 45 mins, and I have a lvl 3 Necromancer. So, what do I do? I've been doing some quests and kill monsters, do I just do that til lvl 20? Or should I party? Or am I too low lvl to Party? Please help me out, thanks in advance.

Well you're still in the tutorial area; not the real game. Just keep going and you'll get to the real game.

As soon as the quests get to hard, party up with other people. Normaly party up with people for missions too. If you are to low leveled to get accepted into a party, just do a different quest which is easier or try it with hench. I hope you find the fun in GW soon ^^ Good luck and have fun.

45 minutes and you think GW is disappointing? No. It's not disappointing.
You can join a party at any level, and the amount you can join increases as you progress into GW. And yes, you do do quests and kill monsters till level 20, but thats not it. You can join the PvP world and fight against other people, and I'm guessing your still in pre-searing? If so then wait untill you get to post-searing, things get ALOT more exciting there. There is the titles, which you can do, alot at level 20, but some not (Drunkard for Example) . And if you only have one character then try out other characters, it's a whole different experience.
If you hav'nt joined a guild, then I suggest you do - or make your own - guilds rock, so long as your in the right one.
You can also try out different skills and attributes, which all adds to the fun. =)
Basicly, 45 minutes just isnt enough to judge your opinions about GW.

You're still in the tutorial area of the game. Give your Red Iris Flowers to Gwen & have her follow you around for the occasional heal. Party up with another person keep doing the quests. Once you hit level 7 or 8 - and have done all of the skill trainers' quests for your professions - go to the acadamy, that's when it starts to get interesting. But be sure to be at least level 7 before you do, especially for your first character.

Pre-searing is dull, the game gets better later on once you hit the northern shiverpeaks region.
Once you get into the "real" game try and find yourself a PvE guild, being in a guild makes life easier and more interesting. You have automatic campions because a lot of exp players like helping out newbies. Having some level20's in your group certainly helps alot and you get to see what its like when you have hit that important level20.

Makes a change from "how do u get back 2 normal world" in Post-searing Ascalon.
What Bane hasn't told you is that you should "shop around" for a guild as they all differ in some way. Some are focussed on PvP or PvE and some guilds can be full of or run by idiots that kick you for being even a few days offline...

I agree stay in pre searing until u are atleast lvl 7-8 makes life a little easier once u get into post searing. Once there do all the quests u can find and try not to rush thru things as u will most likely miss out on the mechanics of the game by getting runs to higher lvl areas or getting power lvled...on your second characters etc its fine to get runs or what have u but I definetly think your first character should "fight" its way thru until u are sure of the game strategies...if u need any help etc contact me in game once u leave pre searing....

If you're bored, make a PvP character to play with alternating with the PvE one you already have.

Nice scenery in the starting area, and when you get into some of the remote areas you will find it at least mildly challenging. At level 8 take Tydus up on his offer, go to "the Academy" and you will find yourself at the beginning of the real game. The further you go, the better it gets. At the high end are really difficult monsters. You will remember those little stone elementals in the starting area with a smile. Wait until you see what those turn into!

I love pre-searing, thought it was one of the best bits about GW.
But when you get past it the story line does develop and is quite fun and interesting. If you need a hand I've got a couple of chars I've kept in pre-searing, where you are, that can help you out.

Not to discourage our new gamer here, but whenever I take a character to post-searing, I dread the Old Ascalon and surrounding areas. It's all brown, dull and drab to me. But then you get to Yak's Bend and there's white snow. Then later on you get to Lions Arch and the jungle areas and that's when the beauty begins.

Yup, you're still in pre-searing (aka the tutorial). Many people stay there until lvl 5, most goes to 6 or 7. The highest lvl you can reach in pre-searing is 10. The only thing you really need to do in pre-searing is to complete all the skill quests in there and get a secondary profession. then you're off to the real world.

Do every quest out there, get yourself to every outpost in the game, do every mission, eventually get bored and hand me over your account XD

Actually i think the highest level you can get to in pre is 16(using the charr and charr bosses behind the wall)
But basicaly as everyone else has said, 45 minutes isn't enough to form a fair opinion about GW so just keep chugging away until you're ready to leave the turorial area.

Thanks for your help guys, Ii haven't played Guild wars since Ii made the post, due to a MMORPG called Maplestory.
And no, I'm not new to MMORPGS, I come from FFXI, and World of Warcraft.
