As others have said, you definitely want to look at doing some questing. I would recommend immediately doing: Waterfall Quest Fight Arena The Grand Tree Tree Gnome Village Merlin's Crystal Holy Grail and once you have enough QPs, Dragon Slayer For their combat skill XP rewards (Not all of them have a great XP reward but those'll be the prerequisites for those that do (i.e. Merlin's Crystal).) I would recommend: Death Plateau Troll Stronghold For access to the God Wars Dungeon, which is a huge part of the game for members. I would recommend starting: Recipe for Disaster Dimension of Disaster A note about these two: THEY ARE NOT MEANT TO BE COMPLETED IN "ONE GO." The entire point of DOD and ESPECIALLY RFD is that ANYONE can start them, but only fairly experienced players can complete them. That's the point of having so many subquests beneath one quest that each have different, increasingly more difficult requirements. As you continue throughout your RuneScape career and inevitably are forced to do more questing, you will find that you will unlock more and more of each of the subquests for each of these quests. As far as starting them specifically: I don't know much about DOD yet admittedly, but with RFD, you'll want to start off by doing up to the Goblin General's subquest. This will get you to 9 Farming. At that point, I would recommend: The Lost City Fairy Tale Part I: Growing Pains For the Farming XP reward and, more importantly, the Magic secateurs. This will get you to a decent Farming level to start off with, so you don't have to be raking weeds for a few levels and can get right into the actual Farming. As for the Magic secateurs, what they do is yield you more of a crop as you harvest it, given that you're wielding them. It doesn't sound like much, but in the long run, especially accompanied by the Greenfingers aura, it makes a BIG difference. As you progress through your RuneScape career, you'll want to chop away at the following quests: Plague City Biohazard Underground Pass Regicide Roving Elves Mourning's Ends Part I Mourning's Ends Part II Within the Light Plague's End For access to Prifddinas, the high-level skilling/everything hub. I would recommend: Eadgar's Ruse My Arm's Big Adventure After completing Death Plateau and Troll Stronghold, for their nice Herblore XP rewards. I would recommend: Smoking Kills For access to the Slayer Reward Points system. Especially in later levels, these become crucial to Slayer and making it go more smoothly for you, not to mention they unlock the Slayer Helmet. Slayer, in turn, again - especially in later levels, is a great moneymaker, particularly for those who don't like/suck at/don't want to bossing/boss. I would recommend: Jungle Potion Tai Bwo Wannai Trio Shilo Village For access to Duradel, the Slayer Master, who is the first real good Slayer Master who assigns real good tasks that can start giving you a decent income. I would recommend: Song From the Depths As a particularly quick & easy quest that will ease your pain with killing the Queen Black Dragon (for when you get to that appropriate level), as it increases your damage output against her. She is a great moneymaker for beginner-bossers (especially considering she can only be solo'd), and, last I checked, yields ~5m/hour. I would recommend: Animal Magnetism For access to Ava's device(s), that will make your ranged training a lot easier, considering it picks up like 95% of your used ammunition and re-equips it for you automatically. I would recommend: The Fremennik Trials Throne of Miscellania For access to your own personal Kingdom that you rule, which will yield resources for you to profit from selling. I would recommend: Icthlarin's Little Helper Contact! For access to Sophanem and its bank, which in turn opens the doors to Pyramid Plunder, which boasts some of the best Thieving XP rates in the game. I would recommend: The Dig Site The Tale of the Muspah Defender of Varrock The Curse of Arrav Desert Treasure The Temple at Senntisten For access to the Ancient spells and curses, a crucial part of membership. I would then recommend: The Light Within For full access to the Ancient spells and curses. If you enjoy a really good story, with immersive gameplay and cool characters, I would recommend: In Search of the Myreque In Aid of the Myreque Darkness of Hallowvale Legacy of Seergaze The Branches of Darkmeyer The Lord of Vampyrium (due for September) If you enjoy a funny story, with outrageous plot points and characters, I would recommend: Cold War Hunt for Red Raktuber Some Like It Cold If you enjoy a clever, witty storyline with cheesy characters and intriguing points, I would recommend: Rum Deal Cabin Fever The Great Brain Robbery Rocking Out A Clockwork Syringe Furthermore, I would recommend using the page at http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Quests/Experience_rewards to further expand your list of quests to do, to better include any XP rewards you're particularly interested in (What Lies Below, perhaps, for that nice RC reward?). It's overall a very useful page for checking what quests you can do to take a break from training a skill and yet still gain experience in it. :) That's about it from my point of view, but definitely look into all of these quests, specifically their rewards, and consider doing them all (in time, at most) (minus perhaps the more optional ones I listed towards the end). They are pretty much all crucial to getting the most out of the P2P gameplay/experience. I should probably say though, that I may have left out some prerequisites in some cases, and only listed the main quests in a series. The Temple at Senntisten, for example, and its listed prerequisites, also have several non-listed prerequisites of their own, that are less so part of the same story and therefore I elected not to include them. Alright, that's all. PM me in-game if you have any questions. IGN: Arctucrus Good luck, happy 'Scaping, and welcome to the wonderful world of membership. :-)
