Some questions

Well this is mainly on farming.

Sorrows Furnace is where I usually farm but dont have luck.I heard Temple of Ages is good.When i enter the town Temple of Ages all I see is broken status and mud/dirt.Am I in the right place?

Also i currently have a weak shield and sword(Tower 15def with 41Hp if hexed and a fiery dragon that adds 4+ armor).What would be a good place to farm for a weapon better then that or a Eternal Shield?

Also,I cant seem to start Sand of Souls quest.They keep telling me talk to the Ghostly Hero but he doesnt give me a quest.What im a doing wrong?

1) You went there when your country was not in favor. Your country has to currently be holding the Hall of Heros.

2) Use Green/Collectors equipment. easy to buy, all max stat.

3) cant really help :/

Im american,when Usa has the hall I teleport to Temple of Ages and i should be able to see it?

Yes, go to the statues then, and kneel at them if the avatar isn't there - then talk to the avatar. Pay him 1 plat to enter.
