You needed to get out of the Faydark and go somewhere where the higher level players were. All the noobs would stay in the starting areas and grind an easy boss zone. All the good players were off across the world, far away from those starting areas. I used to get good parties by hopping off the boat between the continents at the little island, because only the actual adventuring players were traveling there.
The best time I had, though, was when I got enough people to start my own guild. It was an RP guild, and my character was an egotistical, megalomaniac High Elf that started the Order of Pureblood Elves. We only took in Elf characters as members. Half-Elfs could also petition to join, but they were treated only slightly better than other races.
The hardest part of that was getting my reputation up with the Dark Elf city so I could go there and recruit dark elf players to the guild without having the guards attack on sight.
