Dark Elf Shadowknight help

[Mankong]

Hey, was gonna roll a Shadowknight and it was a coin toss between Delf and Human... Until I realized that Delves get more early on (like a decent starter shield??) and can get a bind anywhere ring. So that decided me. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Now, I was wondering; where am I allowed to go, how do I gain rep with, say, Qeynos, Freeport, and Butcherblock. Any low level shadowknight gear I should know about? ETC
