    Ok best suggestion is to farm for gear in Atlantis Above Water. Also Grimm ect final boss with people at 40 or below. The boss drops extro 100% of the time. With enough kills you should have better gear. Also do events some of them like full moon event will give you items you'll love. The full moon shield is 130-150% block rate you'll see a lot more blocks.

    Legendary 40+ gear would make your play a lot more bearable. Time has past on everything just improved or magic. Your flogging a dead horse with gear less than 5 your level. Load up on damage and health gems.
    Level 40+ Uniques would be even better. Consider set bonuses in Drakensang Online Wiki before targeting a farming spot. Try to farm the highest level you can solo.
    If you are premium, the mystic cubes can be a quick ticket to some boss gear.
    The Dark sets from draken are a step most players take at about your level. Farm Varholm and Blackborg ahead of time, and be able to make about 27 runs, solo or in a good group.
    Good guilds help each other.
    PvP fame bonuses help PvE scores too. Invest in yourself.

    Change favors the prepared mind. Enjoy!

    Replace items piece by piece with whatever is better. You can melt the previous item to reclaim your investment in glyphes. There will be jeweler fees, but most players can manage them ok as they go.
    If you are not sure about what is better, try Drakensang Optimizer software, free online. It's a friendly spreadsheet variation to crunch your numbers for you.

    You asked about low level items, a good way to see if it is worth keeping is to see how the stats look at LVL 40-45 I have had some low level items in my past that I wish I had held on to. Because of the glyphs it will cost, you may be better off replacing it in the short term, but holding in to it for end game.

    Also, seening as you are not premium, and don't have much in the way of draken, you best bet for gear would likely be from fanning Gorga. I can not express how important it is that you replace those magic items with items your level that are at least extraordinary. To put it in perspective, my level 34 ranger (who is not a twink) has better stats for every line except block. You benefit firm the change that allows you to identify every item you get. Look for any exos you can and hope for the best. If need be, you may benefit from doing the daily quest for exo gear as opposed to knowledge books for a week or so to bring your gear up to date also. Just a thought, but it could help.

    Thats a very weak dk. Mine is 36 and has 4.7k hp 350 dmg, 1.28 speed, 1.4k def(which is low). Farm q1 endboss. Replace your gear with hp+armour enhancements. Go farm realm fragments + moos event gear. If you have drakens buy the dark set, would do wonders for your DK.

    My base damage and critical chance are too low. I do really low damage
    Please tips to improve base damage. Please tell me what armors, rings, sword, amulet, weapon adornment and belt i should use. I'm F2P, i dont have anderments so i cant buy gems.
    Should i save anders for gems? Where should i farm items?

    Just try upgrading as much of your gear as possible. Like Baragain mentions, you benefit from the new free ID regime, so just try to upgrade to level 37~40 extraordinary and legendary in every slot if you're still at level 40. Once you get extraordinary or better in every slot, and ideally with 4.5K+ HP and 2.2K+ armor and a decent shield at level 37~40, you should be able to run some events in a small group. But be prepared to spend some anders reviving when fighting the boss (don't exit to city and then come back, that will reset the boss hp and just make your groupmates mad). Getting the Vargulf shield in the full moon event like kamasutra mentioned would do wonders for your block rate.

    Alternatively, just run the temple outer loop and see if any uniques drop; temple is one of my favorites due to the high number of possible level 40 uniques that can drop (keen set, deep sea set) as well as level 34~40 extraordinaries and legendaries from the large number of red circle level 40 monsters

    what does the +8 +8 +8 ring come out to at level 40? is it at least +17 +17 +17 or is it lower than that?

    I don't know what server you are on, but I never mind helping other F2Ps on Agathon if they need it.
    Farm up some silver ess for the Full Moon event and run that a bunch of times. With a little luck and some helpful teammates, you may even walk away from the event with a full set of the Full Moon items which would do wonders for your toon.

    As said, if you are on Agathon, hit me up and I'll help when I can. I am usually on from 7:30 PM to 11:00 PM Central Time. I could even help you work through Map1 so you can get to Map2 where you will find a limitless supply of glyphs and extraordinary items.

    Yes, i am preparing for the Full Moon event to get atleast the vargulf shield.

    So sad. Well, good luck... don't just go for the shield, go for the full set. Keep running the boss as long as you can find groups that will take you so you can get the full set. That 10% HP from the set bonus would really come in handy for your level.
