1) Get a full set of Banded Armor ASAP (Typically costs 1PP per AC)
2) Get a good weapon ASAP (like Sword of Skyfire, Green Jade Broadsword,
Sarnak Skullsplitter, to name a few that are somewhat affordable)
3) If tanking, Snare/Flame Lick are major taunts. Either can be used
to pull a mob off a caster instantly.
4) Snare everything. If not tanking, wait until mob is half dead, then snare
to keep mob off you. Groups in dungeons will want you in group as a snarer.
5) Fletch to make your own bows and arrows. Archery adds a nice little
dot for soloing. Though archery isn't that useful in a group until AAs
come out...which ain't happening soon.
6) If no chanter/bard in group, you can "ghetto" mez by snaring a mob
to have it come to you, then park it with Root (which you get at level 15).
7) Heal yourself between fights.
8) Partner with Enchanter/Bard/Necro for fear-kiting XP outdoors. You snare/melee,
they fear.

All I got for now,

Selenia (Enchanter)
Taimah (Ranger)

1. Done.
2. Silver Swiftblade atm
3. Didn't realize Flame Lick was boss like that, thanks.
4. Done.
5. Done. Even made a few bows for other noobs, so if you are a noob and need a bow /tell Hoton
6. Root is coming up soon so I'll remember this one.
7. Done, unless I had to spam heal someone else because Heals went oom.
8. Will do, thanks.
