New player needing some direction
to be honest, just try different professions. All of them cost about the same to gear and now with the Megaserver, it does not matter what server you are on. Also with the megaserver, it is easier to find people to “Map” with. As the new trait system requires players to do certain events and map the zones to get access to traits. If you feel yourself getting burnt out, just stop mapping or grinding and try something different. sPvP (Skill PvP) now allows for players to gain Tomes of Knowledges, which grants levels per tome. So if you prefer to pvp, that may be a good way for you to level. It also can provide you with gear through Dungeon tracks in PvP. Hope this helps in some way/shape/form!
new trait system?? where do i learn about this!?
The Wiki is your friend. It’s also the official help system.

My advice to you is not to play this game as a completionist. I can easily ruin the game for you.
You don’t have to do everything AT ONCE. There’s time to do it.
If you want I can show you a few things in game that might make your life in game a bit more interesting. Just message me on Cador Shrike.
