I mean, it sounds to me like you're literally relying on the guards to save your bacon. I've leveled quite a few newbs in live back in the day and here... And guard killing is a part of the process. You're going to die as a lowbie (or any level). You have to figure out how to pull, conserve mana and kill the beasts without relying on guards. If stuff hits the fan, you may have to get to a zone. Situate yourself near a zone line if you have to.
You can level quite well without having the guards as a crutch, you just need to break out of your comfort zone.
