The first arena (lev 1-10) I would not suggest to anyone below lev 7.
Lev 7 is a bit low but if your a good player you can be a valued asset to a party. But at that level don't think you can toe-2-toe your opponents unless they are also lev 7-8.

Normally in lev 1-10 arena you have two main 'heavies'. They are lev 10 characters who are enjoying some solids wins or new characters from some lev 20 players who want to hand down some nice items and mash on people - lol! So flaming swords etc.

If your lev 7, do the following:

1) Be prepared to die.
2) Always have a res-sig to bring back other party members. High lev monks take priority.
3) Get ready to run lots! If you can keep a lev 10 opponent chasing you, then your keeping him out of the game.
4) Support spells, hexes and healing your own party are great. Dumping firestorms on battles also manages to panic the enemy no matter how weak they are!

Lev 7 is fine. Lev 5-6 is too weak.
Hope that helps.
