I am planning on getting guild wars and i am wondering if i should get prophicies and nightfall or prophicies and factions

Each Guild Wars is a stand alone game you know, you don't HAVE to buy Prophecies. So you could do Factions/Nightfall or just one of them.Here is a brief rundown...Prophecies-European fantasy themed-Long story quests-No unique characters-Most skills can be quested for-Slowest levelingFactions-Asian themed-Lots of PvP conflict-Has the assassin and ritualist-Faster levelingNightfall-Egyptian themed-Mostly PvE with one new PvP feature-Heroes (customizable henchmen that level with you)-Has the Dervish and Paragon-REALLY fast leveling-Most skills must be captured or purchased

In my opinion, you should either get Nightfall, or get the Profecies + Eyes of The North pack. Be careful though, cuz Eye of the North is not a standalone campaign, you have to have either Prophecies, Factions, or Nightfall with that one.

Factions is...an ugly one at the beginning, so... I would not recommend that one at first.
