Pretty Newb question

Just started the game about 3 days ago and I do not know the controls that well. I was wondering how do you search for a party with the "looking for party" by the character's name? I had it once but I don't remember how i did it.

Hmmm I dont have the game loaded atm. But Ill try to work from memory.

You have to open the same window you would when you access the action icons. You know, the little sword icon, pick up icon.

It should be in another tab from the character status/skills window.

Anyways, once you found the window with the tab with all the action icons, one of them is the one to open the find party window.

Hope it isnt to confusing....

Tbh, you rarely see this being used especially in noob towns where most people have the same game knowledge.
You're best off doing a shout using "! looking for party" without the speach marks. Or "! Level 10 looking for party". Quite a few people will respond if they see you're of a similar level.

Most people now days solo from 1-40.
From 1-20 you should not need a group, soloing is very easy for all classes.
20-40 since the population is toon this level is mostly concentrated around Dion/Giran, shouting should get you good results.

Ive only found the party system to be benificial at lvls 50 ish + since the people spread around.

It also depends on your server. For some reason some servers dont use it, other servers do (a bit more).
