A fresh start

You will start your adventures as a fighter or a magic-casting mystic class. That's until level 20. Generally, starting towns are pretty empty of players and sometimes boring.

This can be good or bad, depending on your point of view. On one hand, fighting solo until 20 is a pretty efficient way for you to level swiftly. On the other hand, there is no one readily available to talk to, ask questions or get help from if needed.

Move on from your starting area as soon as you're around lvl 20, no point in staying around for more.Once you complete your first class change, you will be moving to "D grade" areas. In these towns you will start to see people, get to interact and the game will take on an entirely different spin.

Until then, concentrate on learning the game interface etc. I suggest talking to the in-game Newbie Guides located in each starting village. These NPCs will direct you with advice and also give you bonuses.Do some quests to earn adena (money) and items as well. Alot of the newbie quests are repeatable so do them over and over. You will get tokens to transfer to other races starter towns for free. Talk to the Newbie Guide in town to use them and do quests there as well.
