Softskins and Twinks, please stop by Fortress Talishan to claim your Free Head Removal and Pike Installation!

Self-found is the most satisfying leveling experience and you can't change my mind. Self-found means only wearing equipment acquired from a corpse that YOU created, or from a quest that YOU completed the entirety of. Ideally without outside assistance from anyone above your level range. Vendor purchased gear is also allowed, as long as it is in a merchants natural stock. No, Klok Acet does not normally sell an Iksar Berserker Club.

General Information

This isn't a guide that's going to hold your hand, Cazic would not allow it. The goal is to point you in the direction of interesting locations, items, and quests. Beyond a few minor tips, it will be up to you to figure out how to achieve each.

What is "Self-found"

For the sake of this guide, I'll assume that you are an Iksar who bathes regularly, and are not going to be doing any of the following:

• Traveling outside of Kunark
• Trading (with a few exceptions)
• Twinking or accepting handouts

Though, anyone on Kunark may still find pieces of it helpful!

Quest Lines

These quests have a wide range of usefulness.

Getting Started

Free Bags

As far as I can tell, any class can get all of these bags as long as they've turned in their initial guild note.

Where	Who	What	How
Fortress Talishan	Drill Master Vygan	2 Slot Bag	"I want a geozite tool"
Temple of Terror	Hierophant Oxyn	4 Slot Bag	"I will perform daily tasks"
Temple of Terror	Lord Gikzic	4 Slot Bag	"I wish to perform the test of a pawn"
Fortress Talishan	Drill Master Dal	6 Slot Bag	"Ready for my task"
Tink N Babble	The Toilmaster	8 Slot Bag	"I need the bag"
The Haggle Baron	Klok Mugruk	8 Slot Bag	"I will perform a small service"

Leveling

Level 1-9

I bet Lord Cazic would really get a kick out of an arachnophobic Monk.

Long Term Goals

Tradeskills

Blacksmithing - Basically required for Shamen, Shadow Knights, and Warriors. You can start getting yourself into Banded Armor and wielding Forged Weapons in your early teens. You will require the corresponding piece of banded to turn in your class armor quests as you enter your 20s. Read the Brewing Section.

Brewing - You may not need it for a little while, but if you begin to save up all of the foraged food you collect, it will save you a lot of money and time when you do go to level it. Save all of your Froglok Blood and Iksar Blood. Allegedly you can kill the froglok slaves in cabilis and they will very very rarely drop froglok blood.

Tailoring - Huge for Monks, nice for Necromancers. Monks will want to get into Cured Silk Armor as soon as possible. Necromancers will benefit from filling all of their armor slots with Raw Silk Armor. There's plenty of spider killing in your future.

Fletching - Having a bow when pulling in the pit will save you from a lot of pain.

If you see a decaying skeleton with one, you now have a bone to pick with it.
1	Field of Bone	Curscale Armor Quest	EXP, random piece of Curscale Armor.	The skins are heavy but the combined bag is much lighter. Loot 8, combine, then loot 8 more for a double turn in.
1	Field of Bone	Bone Chips Quest	EXP, Cash	Rewards more coin than if you were to vendor them.
2	Field of Bone	Scorpion Pincers Quest	EXP	These pincers don't stack. Personally, I skip this one and focus on wolf pups and skeletons.
3	Field of Bone	Bonebinder Warrens	EXP, Cash, Spiderling Silk Spiderling Silk QUEST ITEM WT: 0.1 Size: SMALL Class: ALL Race: ALL , Burynaibane Spider Fang Burynaibane Spider Fang MAGIC ITEM Slot: PRIMARY SECONDARY Skill: Piercing Atk Delay: 29 DMG: 4 Effect: Sear (Combat, Casting Time: Instant) WT: 2.0 Size: MEDIUM Class: ALL except CLR DRU MNK SHM Race: ALL , Burynaibane Charm Burynaibane Charm Slot: NECK AC: 2 SV DISEASE: +2 SV POISON: +2 WT: 0.1 Size: TINY Class: ALL Race: ALL	The spiderlings are social and flee, but it's fairly easy to space them out. If you're lucky you also might run into the small yellow Burynaibane Spider.

Don't touch my seat.

There's a 100% and ~30% spawn for the outlander side by side. They've got a ~5% chance to drop blood and it would be very nice to build a stock while still getting EXP.

Here's your chance to go international with your froglok genocide!
