lawl.. you need buffs, dyes, newbie eq etc... and then go mos to get enough aa.. to get eq to +100.. keep in mind.. +15 is safe and youll need that for mos..
once you have enough pdef.. go emerald or higher level mos.. raid lairs etc.. and farm ea to buy epic armors.. and later on crystal..
as for the confusion.. read server npc guide.. and just take a look at every npc in giran lol.. its not that hard :/
all you basically need is err newbie shop to start..
