One additional note from someone who just left the island (now level 16):
If you get ganged up on (and it WILL happen) then let your pet take what he can and
swim out into the water. I don't mean to waist level .... I mean swim out a bit. The
sisters can't/don't swim and will only follow you until the swim point. You can then
safely gate, or even summon a new pet. I've even memorized a pet spell, sent him up to
fight, then another until the coast was clear. =) Call it what you will but at least it
kept me from dying.
Some other tips would be to gamble a little and bind to Freeport. You will cut your
travel time to sell belts IMMENSELY. Yes if you die it will be a pain but it is sooooo
worth it to be able to gate back and sell things in a minute or two instead of about
30. Also, at level 12 several of the sisters will be in the blue range for you. Pay
attention to the clothing type since sisters of the same level range dress the same.
