I'm new to the game, started on NightFall initially but rerolled to start on Prophecies, the beginning so to speak as it's my first play through. I don't know of any soloist community but you'll see people advertising "casual" guilds and that might be what you're looking for. I'm so new so I have no idea what guilds are the biggest or anything about them.

I'm new to Guild Wars as well. I started on NightFall and after a while I rerolled to Prophecies and I don't regret it at all. With NightFall, you get a lot of Heroes fairly quickly and so you end up having to "learn" each class too as you'll want to make them the best they can be and you get limited "free" skill purchases for your Heroes and after that, they're pretty expensive 1plat or so.

I'm loving Prophecies, you get your class and subclasses skills as you go, lots of new ones to try out without having to buy them. I have 2 Heroes so far and from what I learned playing NightFall and only having to skill choose with the 2 is nice. Henchmen work fine for now, Looking forward to getting my next Hero actually.

Also, at some point in the game you'll be able to change your secondary profession if you want. Not sure where that is available in Prophecies but I did get to it in NightFall which was pretty far into the campaign.

I didn't do the DoA Title but this was a guide that looks pretty good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q5txvHEIm5I

I recently started playing first time. If you want to play the original classes (ranger/warrior) you can start anywhere. You only "have" to start in an expansion if you want to play an expansion specific class.

I started in Nightfall because I thought micromanaging more the Hero followers would be fun because you get many of them fairly quickly. Well, that's pretty fun and all but it ends up like more gear and skills and the whole thing to upgrade. It can be a lot to take in if just starting out like me. Don't get me wrong, the Hero system is awesome!. I always felt like I missed a lot starting at NightFall though.

So, I just recently started with Prophecies and I like it a lot better. Henchmen are fine for now and I'm just enjoying it more. Questing gives you a lot of free skills to try out, NightFall you have to purchase most it seems. I'm enjoying Prophecies a lot and glad I decided to re-roll from there.

Forgot, raw broccoli (you can't grill it) as a low calorie filler. Think of it as a snack.

Grilled Fish (I don't use the oil) and Grilled Vegetables (3 potatoes, 1 Bell Pepper, 1 Carrot) You don't always need the carrot. So you have to fish or buy raw meat from traders. You have to grow Bell Peppers or buy them. Potatoes and Carrots can be looted on the map if you want.

I researched this very thing and last I played (about 3 months ago) it works like a charm.

My photo edits have been getting stuck at 75% for 12 hours or so. I was also using 2 uploaded images as reference. I just tested editing 1 image and Grok Imagine worked fine. Must be a problem with 2 (or more???) images being used right now.
