Ok, so you've chosen your character and had movie time ( I love those intro videos). Now what do you do? Look around. Not too far from where you are you should see someone with a yellow exclamation point over their head. walk up and right click on them. This will open a window. Congratulations, you just opened your first quest, it won't even be close to your last. Read the quest text carefully, trust me this will save a lot of time. If you don't remember all the details that's ok. After you click the accept button you will be able to pull up not just this quest but your entire quest log by pressing the "L" key. Also, your going to want to drag your mouse to the little magnifying glass icon on your mini map. This is going to pull up a list of icons that you can set your mini map to display, armor repairs, inns, mailboxes and
most important in this case is the low level quests icon. This will keep you moving in the right direction. Now that you have your first quest you can go ahead and click your "M" key it will open your map. On that map you'll see one of a few things either a question mark, this shows the location of the person that you turn the quest into. Or if this is a quest where you are supposed to collect something or kill something the areas where you can find these things will be marked with a blue blob. So go forth have fun and always read the text first. And remember we're all noobs, some of us just fly the flag a little higher.
