    FB is short for "FuBen" which is basically chinese for "dungeon". You get a set of FB tablets every ten levels starting at 19, with a slight deviation later on in your 50's. In a nutshell, FB runs are instanced dungeons that each have one or more bosses at the end. You run these for legendary equipment and to complete quests.

    big kid pills are basically just fun little items you either use yourself or sell to a mechant. There is no market to speak of for them, so in essence they are worthless.

    "noob" markets are mostly located in the three starter cities, i.e city of the lost, plume city, and etherblade. In these 3 cities you'll find low level mats and gear that other low levels are selling. There's always the auctionhouse that you can check for low level gear too.

    Lemme know if you have any more questions.

    Big kid pills: Not much at all, check the Auction House or use them yourself for kicks.

    Noob market: Dunno what you mean by that, but the majority of player Cat Shops are set up in West Arch [at the crossroads]. You get send to Archosaur around level twenty.

    FB: Series of dungeon boss quests, essentially, that you get issued at certain levels; nineteen, twenty nine, thirty nine, fifty one, blahblahblah. Requires help from a squad.

    Uhh socket stones, but I wouldn't add sockets to anything until much later in the game. At the lower levels you don't keep gear for very long at all.

    To view the Auction House, you talk to the Auctioneer NPC. There's one in Dreamweaver Port, one West Arch and one in City of the Lost [so presumably there's one in Etherblade and Plume, the other starter cities; Idk 'cause I'm Untamed and I don't make a point of memorizing the layouts of the noobcities].

    Those bloods are largely worthless, yeah, they're used for making some weapons or something but most people end up with stacks of them and just dropping them or feeding them to the NPC merchants.

    Pumpkin pills - same as the Big Head pills, not worth very much, just a consumable novelty item.

    On your wiz, grind where the mobs are of a similar level to you. Grind where you get quests and One Man Armies for. Grind close to somewhere where you can bank and sell. I'm sure Hill of the Swarm is fine lawl, you'll move out of that area in like five seconds anyways.
