I hear you. I feel for the new player that cannot complete the quest.
I feel that the lvl 1-50 dungeons should be soloable on an easy mode
since the population just isn't enough at those levels to make parties.
I am only one player, among several, that DO HELP the new players out.
I've been known to spend over an hour a day just helping new players.
The helpers are just not enough. & We are not always on. But we try...
I don't blame you for getting exasperated at being stuck in the quest.
I won't tell you to change your mind or to come back. I will say I that I
am sorry the opening of the game did not manage to work out for you.
If I were just starting now, I wouldn't last for long either, without help.

I post this advice not to the original poster, since they have bid adieu,
but to the next new players that might see this post, and then feel like
there is no help to be had in game. There is. Maybe sparse. It's there.
It will find you if patience is a part of your play-style. Consider that if
you are asking for help, you are asking for the helper's patience too.
Idk about other helpers, but I never boost. I only help questers thru
dungeons. Boosting is boring. I want to enjoy the game I am playing.
Asking someone to not enjoy the game so that another can is unfair.
For those that do want help in dungeons, here's how some of the
helpers connect with you. Use 'N' Party Finder. It may take some time
before someone replies. We do not always play at your schedule, we
are people/players with schedules of our own too. But we periodically
look in 'N' (especially when warping elsewhere is convenient for us).
You can look in Find Party Chat Channel /3. & Spam there all you like.
We may not look there because it isn't always convenient to have /3
enabled, as it spams away our chat, but we look there when available.
Ask in pub, BUT DON'T SPAM! You are far more likely to get a reply of
help if you don't spam, as spamming pub is unnecessary & unwanted.
IF we reply to spam in pub chat, it only encourages more spam in pub.
If pub is full of toxic drama or a single player's monologue, I will likely
turn it off. GMs used to manage pub chat to keep that in check. Sadly,
now that sort of thing makes some helpers harder to connect with...
Again, a reply might not be immediate. Don't expect helpers to always
be available at a moment's notice. We may be mid-fight when you ask.
We may be afk. We may be helping someone else. Patience is needed.
I tend to offer help w/i 5-10 minutes of seeing someone ask for help...
Peace & Cheers!
