→Extras: added player quote
*The road east of [[Serbule]] is where most Pigs spawn. They are easy to kill and always drop Pork Shoulder. Pork Shoulder is extremely important for raising '''Joeh''''s Favor fast.
*A player quote for first time visiters to the island, and when you first get to [[Serbule]].

When you first start out, three things to remember if you want to enjoy PG:
1. Explore everywhere (and take the time to read the NPC's responses!)
2. Remember death isn't a penalty, it's a skill. And getting dying to level 10 is helpful!
3. Have fun - try something different! And when you get stumped, /wiki <subject> (preferably in a spot you won't get attacked by a wandering monster)
When you first get off the island, my biggest advice would be to curry favor with Marna. She is able to sell useful items needed for other NPC's quests, she's the only early source for disease cures, and she gives storage (others like Joeh also give storage but Marna lets you store anything). Plus it's fairly easy to work up her favor - you can give her skins (if you've gotten a skinning knife) but you may want to save those for tanning and leatherworking. It's actually pretty easy to start growing potatoes and onions (though onions do take fertilizer so may want to stay with just potatoes), cook them into an easy vegetarian dish, and give those to Marna.
It's also worth buying the following items to get some useful skills and bonuses: Autopsy kit Mushroom Jack), skinning knife (either from a later zone, as a reward from one of Ivyn's quests, or the easiest way is from another player), handsaw (Therese), butcher knife (another player). Autopsy kit lets you gain skill in pathology, skinning knife lets you skin animals you kill, handsaw lets you gather wood, and butcher knife lets you butcher corpses (but you can only skin or butcher a corpse, not both).|Boric|http://projectgorgon.com/forum/community-questions-answers/2513-suggestions-to-answer-the-question-i-just-got-off-the-island-what-next#13960}}
