lets see...
1)circus(waukeens promenade)
2)copper coronet slavers quest: free hendak and the slave(note: do NOT go to the slaver stockade at early levels. its the ship, to which hendak wants you to go after you free him)
3)Renals(and Maevars) quests
4)umar hills errand jobs(dont go to the temple ruins in early levels)
5)trademeet(LOTS of quests, exp and powerful equipment there)
6)de'arnise keep(i recommend you have some kind of confusion protection before going there. aegers hide(powerful leather armor you can buy from the adventurers mart) or Lilarcor(+3 two handed sword. you get it from the sewers under the copper coronet).
7)by now youre high enough level to go nearly anywhere. i would not recommend soloing if you are a first timer though. first of all: the beginning IS tough, before you get some levels and get to know the game, and secondly: the party interactions and banters are about half the game(!), in my opinion.
edit: damn, beaten by 3 people. thats what you get for thinking a few minutes...
