On live, I created a BIS level 10 Rogue which was a pain in the ass. Getting a 19 BIS is way easier.
That included two of the arena trinkets (the exp from that really wasn't that much) which I did first. Getting even one on this server would be a total nightmare I'd imagine (you have to loot 12 chests).
I then mapped out what areas I needed to quest in for BIS items (like areas around cities, dungeons, flight paths, blimps, pre-req quests) and got the exploration experience early (like level 2-5) to minimize experience at later levels.
This also included getting a lucky fishing hat. Although it is not in the game at the moment, at some point they will put it in and you'll want to get it. I strongly recommend using some of your early experience exploring some of STV so you can fish once the derby is implemented. If you don't, you won't be BIS later and I've known some people crazy enough to completely reroll because they didn't have it. Leave some cushion for the fish turn in experience. Not sure how much that is.
Do quests as early as you can possibly get them. For example, you are able to do the Wailing Cavern main quest at level 10.
As mentioned, have someone clear all the dungeon trash (and bosses that you don't need) before you even zone in. Repeat as necessary.
