Qeynos Starting Guide
Contents |
Welcome
Welcome adventurer to Qeynos, home of the Humans. Also, many Erudite players choose to take the boat from Erudin and start in Qeynos instead, making it a second home city for their race, and many Barbarians (once they are high enough to travel through Blackburrow) base themselves here also.
This guide will help you find useful quests and NPCs in Qeynos and Qeynos Catacombs, and provide suggestions for surviving the animal and insect-ridden Qeynos Hills.

Qeynos Aqueducts
Guilds (Starting Quests)
Cleric (Evil)
Clerics of the Plaguebringer should seek out Xerture Demiagar. As with all Evil Humans in Qeynos, young clerics should head to the Warrior's Guild. Hang a left inside and follow the bones, taking a second left and heading down the ramp. At the gate with Wylin Dodmil, walk inside. The bones point you again to the third door from the left. Walk inside, follow the bones...and walk into the Qeynos Aqueducts. Follow the path until it branches in earnest (the nook with the skeleton doesn't count). Con the skeleton, though. If it's not amiably, you're in the wrong place.
Walk past the bloody scimitar banner and walk all the way to the back. Xeture is in front of the altar. Hand him your guild summons and put on your Ruined Training Tunic. You may also purchase spells here, and use the bank.
Enchanter (Evil)
Evil Enchanters must make their way to the shadowy depths of the Qeynos Aqueducts. It is there they need to seek out Reania Jukle. A guide on how to get there has already been written, see (Cleric Evil above). Upon handing in your Blood Stained Note you will be presented with your very own

It is within this maze that young Necromancers must seek out Lyris Moonbane. Once found, simply hand your note to Lyris and begin your training in your newly made LORE ITEM

Important NPCs
Bank

, the town's bank.

Bag Vendors
Bags can be found in both North and South Qeynos. In North Qeynos, they can be found at
- Shenro Kazpur located inside the Monk Guild.
- Tubal Weaver located inside the gates. Tubal is a "greedy" merchant so the bags may cost more from him.

- Gahna Salbeen
- Sansa Nusk
- Bisdlo Ravtahm
- Rabley Trumend

Food and Drink Vendors
Location #5 on the map, Galliway's Trading Post , sells food, drink, bandages, etc., and is close to the town gate.
Location #22 on the South Qeynos map, Voleen's Baked Goods , also sells food and drink.
Qeynos Hills
Where/What to Hunt
Initially adventurers don't even need to leave Qeynos itself, because their "newbie" area is right outside the town gate, and is filled with a variety of low-level critters for new players to level up on.
Dangers
The Klicnik and beetles will team-up (ie. "social agro"), so be careful of engaging them when others are nearby.
Also Fippy Darkpaw repeats his death charge to the town gate daily, and he will attack you if you are in his way.
Be aware of the skeleton that spawns and does not move in the newbie yard. It looks like a decaying skeleton and will ruin your day if you absentmindedly attack it.
