💡 Tips
- Learn new professions at Sen'Jin Village (Herbalism, Alchemy, or Fishing)
- For new players try not to buy equipment or weapons from vendors and waste your money. You will find much better gear from quest rewards and drops as you level up. Save your money for bags, and eventually a mount at level 40, which has a base cost of 100 gold (20g for training, 80g for mount)
