The saving Silverlake URT quest is inconsistently bugged right now (works for some, not for others)
For the Greaves you can go to Arlinora's Retreat. It's full of undead but I *highly* recommend it
My cleric started the missions at 16. The Weapon mission is level 20. I bet you'll have no troubles. In the mean time, while you are collecting stuff to finish the mission, you get some decent armor drops. They can last you until you get the URT.
My bard and her paladin cohort (don't *anyone* tell Taggy I called him that) started the missions at 16. We are on the weapon one now at 18.
You should be well set to do this line. You get good coin for each mission. Lots of good vendor trash as well (for added income) and a "free" set of armor (if you don't bill for the time invested of course)
All in all, it's great to learn some story and see some interesting places, meet some interesting people and kill them
