Be sure as a newbie to bring lots of food, torches and a scroll of recall when exploring. Theres many dangers around the world and not all mobs are nice. Also remember to use the consider command before fighting ny mob, that will give you an idea on the mobs level and maybe how strong it is. Areas near big cities like cythera and elkin are good to start, just dont walk too far cause aggros surround these places. Some good areas to start are Newbieville, Near Bloodstorm, Happy forest and forests west of cythera from south gate, Forest and cave before hornets nest, bandits camp, mines if u on shayol,etc.
