Newbie Isle, also known as "Uthgaard", is the zone where all new characters begin play.
Contents
First Steps
Before enter the world, you will be prompted to join a Hamlet faction which will serve as your Guild until you leave the island. If you leave this guild before reaching max level you will be teleported away from the island and be unable to return. Take caution when using this option.
Promotion and Training
New characters will begin at level 10 with 10,000 starting gold in their inventories to train and buy provisions. Your first step is to promote to your chosen prestige class by visiting the appropriate trainer. It is highly recommended that you save 2,000 gold to purchase a Greater Concoction Potion from your faction's local alchemist.
Gear
Each faction Hamlet has a Forge with Armor and Weapon smiths who will equip you at no cost. Replace your starting items with this gear once you have completed your training.
Outpost Conquest
Newbie Isle consists of two warring factions, which are selected by the player when first entering the world. The faction you choose does not really matter, unless you plan on going through it with other players.
Within the central zone, Grimstaark Peaks, players may capture one or more of the four outposts to gain benefits to their experience. If one of the two factions capture all four outposts, every character playing within that faction will be rewarded with a sizable chunk of experience. The losing faction will receive an "underdog bonus" buff to help them in the next round.
PvP On Newb Isle
Players can kill other players on newb isle, but the rules are a little different from the mainlands: Players cannot kill members of their own faction, and inventory items are not left behind after dying. Additionally, players below level 20 receive special buffs that put them on a level playing field with players level 20 and up.
Participating in PvP nets more experience than killing mobs alone. Players are encouraged to engage in it whenever possible both to learn the ropes and contribute to their faction's dominance.
Graduation
Players are automatically teleported away from Uthgaard at level 35. At this point, the player should seek allies for zones around that level, or risk leveling solo.
