I recently (1 week ago) came back to EQ after 7 or 8 years.
The hardest part is getting to your first couple of backpacks so you are not running to sell every few minutes. With 2 backpacks and Level 3, you should be able to comfortably solo trash mobs.
Knowing what loot to sell to players and what to keep for tradeskills will go a long way. A small sewing kit can fill in your armor and a few sharpening stones can improve those rusty weapons.
