Type /claim it brings up new player veteran rewards.

Claim the following:
-180-day Jump to Lightspeed veteran reward: The Sorosuub Luxury Yacht
-Star Wars Galaxies Starter Pack reward: an X-Wing or Tie-Fighter instant transport vehicle
-(Should be a reward also for Desert Skiff)

Type /flash it will give you another vehicle deed for a Flash Speeder, its good to have a backup if one gets destroyed.

Hit "I" to access your inventory.
Look for the following items.

Right Click the Sorusuub Luxury Yacht, 3) Generate Ship
Right Click the Instant Travel Terminal Deed, 3) Grant Ability
Right Click the Desert Skiff Deed, 1) Generate Vehicle

Hit "K" to access your datapad.
Look for the Flash Speeder (and or Desert Skiff) and drag it to Slot 12 on your Abilities Bar

For some of our Fast Travel Abilities.
Hit ";" semi colon to bring up your Command Browser. Select Travel.
Drag Call for Pickup from the Command Browser to Ability Slot 21.
Drag Return Home from the Command Browser to Ability Slot 22.
Drag Return to Mos Eisley from the Command Browser to Ability Slot 23.

While at it lets get some additional Abilities on the Ability Bar.
Under Buff we will find Power Assisted Sprint, Drag it to Ability Slot 00.
Under Healing we will find Heal 1, Drag it to Ability Slot 32.

(Note if you followed the Macro Guide when you press "Q" that Heal will try and activate as the macro guide provides a macro for combat that will push Abilities in Slot 12-19, and 24-35).

Now we are going to equip a weapon so that when we gain experience we will gain experience in a specific category.
Hit "I" to open your inventory.
Double Left Click the Issued Rifle

The weapon is now equipped.

If you have followed the basics you should be able to use WASD to move your avatar around.
We are going to enter the Mos Eisley Starport.
Hit "M" to bring up the overhead map.
The Starport is the building we spawned next to when we first enter the world space.

Once inside the Starport we want to access the Starship Terminal by Left Clicking it with the mouse. Then select the Sorosuub Luxury Yacht.
(Note your mouse cursor may be fixed in one location, Hit "ALT" to unlock the cursor).

Then Select Travel > Mustafar > Travel

We are going to travel to Mustafar to reach max level 90 quickly.
Wait for the video cut scene to end and we should be on the landing pad of Mensix Mining Facility.

Please follow the guide below to gain level 90.
(Note you can copy all the waypoints at the beginning of the guide by highlighting them and using CTRL+C, then select the Chat Bar ingame and use CTRL+V to paste them, press Enter and they should all now be highlighted on your waypoint finder).
