You can go down either the PoD lift or the "Newbie" Lift, both of them will take you to the same general area. Both lifts also have 2 and sometimes 3 guards at them, remember this! This will save your life many times if you do, when you get into trouble run to them. When you first start off at level one only aim for bats, jsut bats. You'll ding 2 soon enough with this and then start killing bats, wolves, and maybe a wasp or two, be careful with the wasps though becase they swarm and can be very dangerous. Another danger of this fighting area is the random Orc Pawn that wanders by, he can easily kill you until you are lvl 3 or 4, so I would suggest steering clear of any of these that you see for now. Keep this up until you are lvl 3.

  Alright, so you're lvl 3 huh? Well it ain't over yet! Now you should be able to start killing 3 or 4 wasps at a time, MAYBE an Orc Pawn and quite possibly the widow hatchlings that pop sometimes. Just keep killing anything in your path until you hit lvl 4.

  MONEY & EQUIP. Sell everything that drops, batwings, wasp wings, wolf pelts, etc. EVERYTHING!

  Oh hey, I said group didn't I? Well as I said in the comment Ranger's are solely meant for groups. When you reach the lift, either /ooc or /shout Level 4 Ranger looking for a group on Orc Hill! You will probably need a guide to the actual "hill" itself so ask for one, don't go barreling out into the woods. Once you get a group it's pretty self explanatory what you need to do.

  Once you get to about lvl 7 you can start grouping at the Crushbone Entrance, this is a very dangerous place to be alone at until about lvl 11 or so. You can stay here until about lvl 9 if you wish, but I'm only telling you to stay until you are 8 :). NEXT!!

  MONEY & EQUIP. Orcs drop Rusty Weaps and sometimes cloth armor. Out of all the weapons they drop, keep a 1HS, 2HS, 1HB, 2HB and a Piercer. Out of all the armor, keep pieces you can wear, and any you get two of... SELL THEM, that includes weapons too :)

  You might try venturing a little bit, you can go to the Northern Desert of Ro and try out Sand Scarabs here. If you can kill them 8, cool, if not try to get lvl 9 and try again. these are VERY nice exp up until about 11 or 12. The only things you really have to be afraid of are wandering pumas and shriveled mummies. The pumas will be a hassle until 9 or so, but the mummies will do you in most of the time until you are 11 most likely.

  MONEY & EQUIP. (Bandit Camp) Rusty Weapons, decent money, and the occasional bag or box. -- (Nro) Scarab loots (carapaces, legs, etc.), loot from anything else you might kill :).

  Ok, now find your way to the "gate". It's near an Inn and past the PoD, that's all I'm going to say :). Keep running way out past the gate and you'll zone into North Ro, this is your final destination! Once you zone in start /ooc'ing for a Derv Group, include your class and lvl. Get a group at one of these camps and stay there until 13ish. Breaking these camps can sometimes be very tough, so don't be surprised if you die from time to time. Beware of Derv 1, as its called, an NPC named Dorn B'Dynn spawns here, he WILL kill you, and most likely your entire party.

  MONEY & EQUIP. Bronze weapons, Dervish Cutthroat Rings, random gems, sometimes a couple pp in money on the corpses. You should upgrade your weapons from the rusty ones to these if you're still using them :).
