4. Running to Rok
Now that your character is made and your inventory is full, it is time to run to Rok Mountain! This is pretty self-explanitory. Just take your noop and run! Try to dodge mobs along the way, but don't worry too much - if you die, just click res on spot and continue running. It should only take a few minutes to get to Rok. See if you can get a friend who is a Bard to give you the speed buff. Also, starting from Samarkand or Hotan significantly reduces trip time. (Just make sure your default return point is still Constantinople.)

5. Choosing a Good Spot at Rok
Alright! You made it to Rok, good job! Now where can you find bots?

Obviously, these aren't the only places you can find bots, but they are some known hot spots and a good place to start.
There are a couple of things to keep in mind when choosing a spot:

Try to find an area where there are lots of bots. This is helpful for getting more drops.
If you can find party mobs, great! Party mobs have a better chance of dropping items.
Roks (highest level mobs) are right around Heart Peak. While they have better drops, they also have fewer drops. You decide where you want to hunt, but I recommend not poaching anything lower than Wings.
If the bots leave or come back from AFK, just move on to another area and check up on them later.
