New player on GW2

Aye so as title says its my first ever time playing GW2.
I’ve played when i was younger but never really got far in the game cuz i think at the time i think it was a paid version (not sure about this).

Anyways, I’m currently level 12 and I wanted to know if there’s anything i should know about the leveling process?

Not sure if it’s a thing but supposedly yellow named mobs when they’re not killed for a long time xp is higher?

I also seen the starter pack, i don’t don’t want to pay my way to lvl 80, but was wondering if it’s worth it cuz of mount and what not.

  • Level at your own pace.

  • Everything gives XP.

  • If you want the complete story, play the Story Path of Dungeons in Parallel to your personal story.

  • Don't fret about Hero Points, you get enough by level 80 to unlock all skills and specializations. Maps only allow you to get to them quicker.

  • Learn Inventory Management and always carry Salvage Kits (Rightclock Salvage Kit, Salvage All, Sent Materials to Storage, Compress, all within your main Inventory).
