If you care very little for story development, and you don't even need to play through Prophecies to enjoy the Factions story, then I would get Factions, I have both Prophecies and Factions, and I find the Roleplaying experience is greater in Factions. It's faster to level your toons through Factions also, so it's good if you want to try out several characters. As a bonus, the new character models at the character creation screens also look better graphically (more detail, sharper) in Factions then they do in Prophecies.
for the 50th time. YES . lol. but yes, you can import through a quest your proph. toons to factions. so you can play there pve too. and factions has more skills, classes, and new areas. so i have both and i play factions more. then i will get the new expansion. and do the quest to move my toons to that area. ect. ect.
but yes get factions second. "beat" proph. first tho so you know what your doing.
Well when u get the first Gw so it is a good start on the game... but in later u can notice that in pvp the Faction guys get like 3 new armors (and plenty more new skills) to all prof that makes em much more powerful...
but even when u are getting use 2 ur character u can even beat em but it will take little more time but no one is unbeatable (yet)
In factions you level up too fast. And just about the only way to get skills is buying them with money which gets expensive. But if you havent allready learned how to play, then getting factions will pit you against tough enemies while youre still too much of a noob to know how to fight them. I've seen it happen with a lot of new factions users who skipped the prophecies campaign.

Great bargain there.
Actuly Game is doing a summer deal for Gw wen i last check on the site wen i was lookeing for away to pre order nightfall witch is done anyways.I seen game doing a great deal selling gw for a summer deal for £9.99 for special edation
My adivce is to get the first one if its going for this cheap then get Factions and nightfall at the same time
Factions, IMO, is better, because you level up faster, the story is solid but progresses fast, the new classes are good, the models look great (the music is better! but both soundtracks are exceptional).
In proph, though, the story is more in depth (hence, slower), but the two stories are of equal quality.
Factions is easier to get into, since it only takes a day to hit 20 from progressing normally. However, in proph, it takes weeks to hit 20 potentially
Factions has a lot of skills that are better than proph, but proph has exclusive ones also.
All in all, both are great games, and you should try both of them. However, if you had to chose one, just flip a coin, as they are both equally as great.

I'd get the original first...it's a good intro to the game. (Of course, they're both worth getting)
Yeah! It's nice to have the original first and but it's highly recommended too to have both. :-)
