its my first go at ladder slasher.. so any one with some good advice? Looking for a ch that can solo stuff to get me items :X

The first suggestion I would give you is to upgrade your weapon. Each tier higher (5 levels) your weapon does significantly less than the displayed damage so most people switch weapons every 5 or 10 levels.

Just find yourself a level 55 staff with decent EE and you'll do a lot better

not every 5 levels, you can get away with doing it every 10-15, more if you have to
I'd suggest getting weapons for
0-5-10-15-25-35-45-55
or cheaper
0-5-10-20-30-40-55

One of my biggest problems is my fg. I can't afford to upgrade my weapon to something good, because the stuff listed is like a million fg for somethin alright :/

Remember to sell your Mq's so you can earn fgs

How do I sell my mqs???

its in the sticky section on the trading forums.
