I'm SpiceChaos in game and currently a level 44 Pure Mage. I started playing just over a month ago and love this game. (obviously... )

Still learning... so any input is greatly appreciated!

The two biggest questions I have so far is:

1. Where are the drops for the best gear for level 45+ Mage?

2. Is there anything special about kill levels? And is there a key to what they are? Ok... that was an additional question, but by golly... i keep seeing a banners pop on my screen that says something about my kills and then it's gone! btw....I have 10,000 kills ... it says something about guild?!?!

Thanks in advance
