There is a lot of subtlety and nuance to answering this, but given that you are here asking, I will try to give suitable advice for a beginner to dungeons.

In traits, I would recommend you bring arms (middle middle middle) instead of discipline (until you unlock berserker, at which point run with that). The reason being that at low level dungeons your critical hit chance is scaled down a lot (stat scaling), and so the extra precision from signet mastery will really help you out in stacking might as a ps warrior (which is your main job besides doing damage). Run with healing signet and use constantly in between all fights to build up more stacks of precision. During fights, you can leave it alone as you will proc additional signet stacks in combat.

Additionally, for skills I would go banner of str, banner of discipline, and fury signet. If the group your running with doesn’t provide fury, swap fury signet for, ‘for great justice’ and use it as much as possible. If you insist on only running one banner, discipline is better than strength I believe, as discipline buffs precision and ferocity, while strength only buffs power. Additionally you can pick up the discipline banner at the start of the fight and use skill 2 to grant fury if no one else is giving fury. Then you can use skill 5 to blast a fire field if there happens to be one.

For mobility, I would not bring pack runes. Instead, I would bring greatsword as your main weapon, and sword+warhorn as your weapon swap. Greatsword is the only weapon you should fight with. The swiftness from warhorn and your elite signet + the movement skills on greatsword and sword should easily allow you to move faster than the vast majority of people you find in dungeons now a days. I would bring strength runes instead but if those are too expensive, Hoelbrak runes are a good alternative. You might hear people say that warrior should run scholar runes, but that is mostly true in some raids where quickness is assumed. If you don’t have quickness, ps warrior will struggle to cap might on single targets (i.e. bosses). Especially in lower level dungeons with precision scaling.

As for armor, if your serious about doing pve, I really wouldn’t recommend anything but Berserker’s gear. At lower level dungeons, it may be the case that assassin’s gear is better, but honestly its more hassle than its worth, especially if your making your first ascended set. A set of berserker’s gear will leave you prepared to move up to higher level pve activites.

Only use the Sword for mobility and the horn for Swiftness.

Something like this..
