Hey Mariner. Welcome to the game and to the forums.
First off, great post with some good questions and points. I'll try to answer some things as best I can:
1. I don't know your class, but here is some reading material for you to look through...
http://www.onethumbmobile.com/celticher ... f=4&t=8837 (Valuable info on scam protection)
http://www.onethumbmobile.com/celticher ... f=4&t=1252 (Mostly pertains to update 2 but has some good info... currently the game is Update 3.)
http://www.onethumbmobile.com/celticher ... 569#p49569 (Great Patch Notes on Update 3)
Also check out the forum board for your class... There might be a guide.
KS is a raging debate. I don't think it has been answered
I agree with marco that joining a clan is a good way to learn for others' experiences. One note on his killing table, I agree with him if your main goal is money. If you want to level, though, I would add connacht horses to the mix at around level 45... Great exp, but zero gold, and no drops.
2. Drops is the game... they certainly give you some extra gold. It is frustrating when you sell something that you find out you need an hour later. If you continue with the pelts, keep regular, fine and pristine... sell the wrecked. Once you get up to your 20s and 30s, you can make some good cash in Dustwither... a fair amount of armour drops that you can sell to a vendor.
As you play, you will learn what is quest, and what is vendor junk.
One more thing about money: there is currently a summer event going on. Some people are collecting stones that are laying around Lir's. Collect them and you can get a mask to wear, but if you don't care about the mask and just want cash, collect the stones and sell them to other players.
3. That story is hilarious. Lucky you. Nice thing is that it is close to the leystone. lol. Ya, the level 15 area has two more dragons: level 90 and lvl 140.
