Starting off in the game |
Your first goal in the game is to get off of the Dagger Wound Islands. Well, this
turns out to be quite easy, but here are a few recommendations that I have before you leave the area.
- Get the teleporters working, and then run by the pirates to get out to the other islands; head directly to the Abandoned temple to get the NPC at the enterence. Now head back thru the teleporters to the main island and fight the pirates; this NPC will help you out a lot!
- Get BOW skill for EVERYONE in your group that can handle it, and try to get them up to expert level if at all possible because picking things off from a distance makes life a lot easier.
- Stay on the main island fighting the pirates until you are level 5; don't train if you don't have to until you can get to level 5 for each character. (Training takes a week per level; but all characters can train within that week, this will save you some game time)
- Try and finish as many quests as possible before you leave DWI, they give you exp... but don't worry if you don't finish them all; you'll be back.

When you first get to Ravenshore :
- Avoid the Centaur's, they are not so easy for a low level group.
- Go after the Dire Wolves on the plains first; avoid fighting them, try and take them out with the bows from a distance
- Once you are about level 8 or 9, go after the Smuggler's Cove. It may be a bit hard, but financially it is well worth it.
- Now go back and take out the Chapel of Eep, and the Dire Wolves Den.

Other things to consider :
- One of the most popular things to do at the beginning of the game, is to head out to Garrot Gorge and get a dragon NPC in your party! They are major characters that can do massive ammounts of damage, having one in your part at very low levels almost seems like cheating.
