noob help please

hi all,

i just started playing a couple of days ago as a warrior. I think I understand most of the basics now. I managed to almost make it to level 5, but mostly by mining, baking, ...
I got the best gear I could find/buy/craft (diamond blade, gold plate mail, silver warrior helmet), yet I still die a lot trying to kill creatures that aren't even worth that much XP (such as wolves). I can of course easily kill all the small bomies but that brings almos no XP/loot at all.

so what should I do next ? I've reached a point where the next level is going to take ages if i can only bake bread for XP ... and I'm almost useless as a warrior right now. are there any other creatures that i could fight? bomies = useless, wolf/lord/.. = too hard for me.
also where can i get armor for my arms, belts etc?

thanks in advance for any advice
