Fairly new player looking for guidance

[ReoDobbs]

If you are dead set on cleric when soloing only go after undead. As the person above said though, as a brand new player you're on a portion of the world that is really only gets consistent traffic for a single high level zone.

I'd personally roll an alt if I were you (and only play the cleric when your brother is online)or you'll soon outlevel him and you'll either be babysitting him or he'll be frustrated being useless in your respective xp hunting areas
