The first Verdite stone you'll encounter is in Shudoms Cave and generally that's the first thing I do when I start this game.
This allows you to have all magic types start leveling up so you don't have to practice whatever you get the last one
Here's how you have to accomplish this:

I've played this game a loooot of times all the way through with 100% since 1998 and I discovered this guy today.

he gave me a Gold Ring so there are 2 of them in the game just like Green Bracelet and Silver Ring.
Oh and BTW Don't ever sell anything except for Magician's Key (but you should sell it after you get 2 of them)
I don't use magic crystals or Power Fruits either. It's more challenging that way.
The Wisdom Fruit raises your intelligence which allows you to see descriptions of items in the inventory.
So my basic strategy is like this:
watch the video, that's how I always start it (get verdite and get back to Quist).
then I find 2 Magician's Keys ASAP and sell 1 to Tim (the guy at Lake Noel).
Then I go to Ed Edmund (the gravedigger) and buy Flame Rod.
That's it that's the basic start. I have my pattern of exploring the game and I found it most comfortable.
If anyone needs any help in this game I'd be glad to help you.
Even after all these years the Royal Cemetery is still a mistery for me though.
1 Portal doesn't work and I have no idea how to fix it,
There's an enemy behind you on a high platform as you teleport and I can't get to him (probably the broken portal has something to do with this).
And I've also noticed that there is no fire on one of the torches where you fix the Moonlight Sword.
These are my problems in this game, other than that I know everything.
