Choose a knight profession, go ahead kill some meadow striders, drop longsword and dawnport is Yours. yours. He has enought enough shield and atk to make u sure u you easily lvl level up and up. This means u you also profit everywhere ;d
U You can also choose sorcerer/druid and go search for meadow striders to drop longsword. Using spells as "exori infir vis" or "exori infir tera" with longsword on full attack is the fastest way to skip dawnport. But it has some risk, if you will be unlucky u you can waste all potions and don't get the longsword. I have spent alot a lot of time on dawnport making nobchars noob chars and IMO knight with longsword is the best option, the safest one for sure.
