New to the server, and finding it hard to get off the ground. I think part of it is I need to adjust to the leveling speed, but I think I'm probably not grasping a few concepts, since everything on the forums that I could find for new players doesn't seem to reference Skal.
What should I be doing at level 3 besides rats? Bears and spider gangs are way too dangerous.
Basically looking for advice on adjusting to the server, and what to do in Skal at level 3.

Re: Getting started in Skal
Depending on your class, you may need to keep up with rats for a while, unless you can find a party to help you out.
Arelith has a quest system which allows you to work for certain NPCs in exchange for gold and XP. In the case of Skal, you can get these quests from the Mayor. Asking around in character can help you find where you need to go, and some polite tells to other players can help you figure out how to use the system, if you have any trouble with it. The in game instructions are pretty easy to follow, though.
These quests will help you shoot up through the first few levels very quickly, but you can only take three per RL day, so choose wisely. Too easy, and you don't get as much of a payout. Too hard, and you can't do them at all, thus forfeiting an opportunity.

The mayor said there was a register behind him, I couldn't find it.
Re: Getting started in Skal
The mayor is the registar. Speak with him about getting your contact, and then he'll start giving you quests.

Re: Getting started in Skal
The lower the reward, the easier it tends to be too. Having a good ac on arelith can help s lot too. So unless you got UMD and are using summon scrolls (what class are you?) Droppong gold to enchant boots to do plus 1 dodge ac is a decent early investment since dodge ac is stackable so it ill never go to waste when others buff you, etc. (Do things like grab a shield too)Maeglin Dubh wrote: ↑Wed Jun 13, 2018 5:25 pmI'll dig through the dialog options again tonight, see where it gets me.

Human Rogue3, on the way to Fighter/WM.
Not terribly inspired, but I wanted something straightforward.
