hi there Khonsu. A lot of the guides are more building your character oriented because almost everyone played this game when it first came out, so actual play guides aren't too common.
This guide will give you a good example of the areas to hunt in at what levels, and then I would also keep the Wiki up so you can look at the map frequently. You will need to get used to using the /loc command and following the graphs to get where you need to go (or practice sense heading a lot, I map it to my turn key so I used it whenever I turned left or right until I capped the skill at 200).

I would also give this a quick read since it looks like you are also looking into playing a mage:

Currently mages are less popular than they used to be because the developers nerfed experience gains to 50% whenever your pet does more damage on the mob than you do personally, which to a pet class like the mage is, is basically every solo kill for you.
Good luck. Gambatte!
