IWAY/Tomb of Primeval Kings

Next to the tombs, there is a mission outpost which you will need to do to proceed in the game. You can also get a run to droknar, the place where you will end up after that mission.
IWAY is a build around the skill I Will Avenge You!, as a necro you actually have a good chance of getting in one of these if you can play order/tainted necro. (sorry, I don't know what a tainted necro is, but I think IWAY uses them)

IWAY is the warrior skill "I Will Avenge You" that relies on a w/r having a pet dying then using that skill to activate regen and speed bosst from dead "Ally"
The Tomb of the Primevil Kings is a high end pvp tournament, pitting you against teams from all over the world randomly. there are 12 maps that lead to the Hall of Heroes requiring a victory in each map.
No you do not have to play in Tombs/halls to progress in the game. Its a pvp area.
Yes you could get into an IWAY group as an Orders necro using order of pain/order of the vampire, or using tainted flesh and casting it on each iway warrior, although people will shun you for doing so.

For the person who didnt know what tainted is:
Its a move called tainted flesh, where if you cast it on a ally, they become immune to disease and if anyone attacks them, they become deseased for _ amount of seconds.

The Tainted necros job is to have Tainted Flesh cast on the warriors most of the time. And its only in melee. Does it count as melee if the warrior is attacking you and you attack back with bow/wand/staff, or does it have to be melee weapon (sword/axe/hammer)?
On the original post, no you dont have to "finish" Tomb of Primeval Kings. There is actually no way to "finish" it. Except from GvG, tomb is the hardest part of the pvp part of Guild Wars. If you plan on trying it, i would suggest finishing Dragons Lair and get the droknars forge armor and get some pvp experience in the other (competition and team arena) pvp arenas.

As a Necro, you are actually in pretty good shape getting into an IWAY group. Most of the PUG (Pick Up Group) IWAY's will be like "rank3 warriors/trappers please", then they'll pick up the first 2 necros they find and convert them to tainted/order necros.
And these jobs arent the hardest either :\ Just stand aways from the fight and cast your ally helping skills when appropaite. Some groups will want you to get more involved and setup wells (like of the profane), or useup the corpses real quick with a quick casting corpse using spell (so the enemy cant use them). You'll likely get targeted too, especially if your the orders necro (n/mo is the most popular orders necro), becuase taking out you will lower the damage per second of your team. So try to keep yourself alive (you ARE /monk ..shouldnt be a problem finding something to keep you alive) :\
EDIT IN: I'll tell you why people do this cause its terrible unfun. Most groups dont even CONSIDER people for their Tombs group if their under rank3 (~180 fame or something like that). IWAY PUGs are always forming (some noobie ones that dont care what rank you are, and some that care [but usually dont care about the necros rank]), and a decent IWAY group can get through 2-3 noobie teams pretty easily. They are shot down when they get to the "hard" maps like altar holding or relic run maps, but thats ok - you did just get a few points of fame - a step closer to rank3 - where you can join some other types of groups.

Don't know if this is the correct place to post this but... what exactly comprises an IWAY build?
