Must have items for all new characters, caster or melee

[nyclin]

To add to what people have already said:

- Jade Maces for melee (~700pp) - will last you to 50+ easily, also one of the better low-level weapons due to the low delay and relatively high dmg.
- Velium BS necklace (~1.5k) - 65hp/mana in neck slot, hard to beat until 50+

Honestly Velium Fire Opal Rings and a Velium BS necklace with a Smoldering Brand is more than enough for a quick start on basically any class. You don't need to fill all of your slots with primo gear - just get some class-appropriate nonmagic armor.
