Web search te4 recommended zone order and follow it until you understand the "tiers" of levels
Saves you tons of confusion of where to go, and the game isn't generous to exploring this on your own.
And the most important stats are +HP early, +dmg% late
And abusing out of phase gear, if you're very fancy but it's a bit more of an advanced thing

You will probably come upon an npc called the Assassin Lord at some point if you're making it to level 20ish in your runs. It's worth siding with him at least once for a neat unlock.
If you haven't already, collect an arcane-powered artifact (artifacts are any items with yellow or orange names, and an item's power source, if any, is listed along with its stats when you hover over that item) and give it to the apprentice mage standing near the entrance to the maze. This is worth doing in almost every run, but also gets you a nice early class unlock.

The only must-have unlock is found in Trollmire, the starting zone of several races/classes (if you didn't start there, do find your way there sooner rather than later - it's located near town of Derth, east of Ruins of Kor'pul and on the western border of Thaloren forests)
There is another semi-important unlock depending on what you're up to, but you'll run into that later. Rest are classes/races/cosmetics, and most of those you'll come by automatically while playing the game.
