I have an issue with the 'Beginning of Adventure' quest. I'm a level 22 Dark Elf archer, and I'm unable to complete it because I run out of mana (using arrows) or I get killed with a sword. I don't have enough Adena to buy health potions. How can I improve my equipment or where can I go to farm mobs to level up and earn Adena? This is the only quest I have active, and I need to finish it to receive others.
