Well, to get you started,

I highly recommend you check this video out to learn and understand how the Combat mechanics and core basics work. Be sure to watch the entire video, as for it will help:

Following after that, I recommend you check out this next video to get an “Idea” of how all professions play in combat. You can also use this video as a guide to help you pick and try out your first class to see if you enjoy it or not:

Even though in both PvP and WvW you go up to level 80 just by being in the area I believe you can not access all your skills in one of them. Which one I don’t remember since I do not PvP at all myself. There is all other factors like your gear that come into play as well. which wold require cash that can be gotten in PvE

Warriors are those who choose to stand between their enemy and all that he loves or hold sacred

You are boosted to lvl 80 in both SPVP and WvW, but in WvW you keep your gear from PVE. So if you start a new char, and jump from lvl 1 into SPVP, you are boosted to lvl 80 and have acces to all your traits, skills and so on.
If you do the same in WvW, you are boosted to lvl 80 but keep your lvl 1 gear and lvl 1 skills and traits. This will mean that you are very weak compared to a real lvl 80 char that jumps into WvW.
