Beginner Tips

One of the first things you should do after creating your new character is visit the East Commonlands Tunnel. On this server, the area inside the tunnel is known as The Hub, and contains many new merchants, quests, and helpful NPCs. It's also where people tend to meet up before venturing into the world. You can visit the hub from any home city by talking to the Local Assistant near the town gate. You can choose to get your first few levels in the traditional (classic) newbie area outside your home city, or in the Tutorial Zone (Mines of Gloomingdeep) by talking to Kardador Tarsinian in The Hub. Talk to the lizardman for a translocate back to your bind point.
