Weapons: Greatsword and Longbow. Greatsword simply because it’s beast in PvE. Dishes out crazy damage and has great mobility. Longbow because it’s a great weapon to learn. You have a fire field and a blast that you can use to stack might(A boon) for even more power, you have a blind and an immobilize and a great burst. Also crits very high.
Gear: You would do best in just going straight out damage. That means Power, Precision and Ferocity. Ferocity was the old Critical Damage, so you know how it works if you have played another MMO before. Power is just straight out power, ups your damage. Ferocity increases your critical damage, and precision makes you crit more often. You will be hit hard if you do not evade, but with a GS(Greatsword) and LB(Longbow) you have very good mobility and should be able to, after practicing, evade most of the damage you are up against. It might be hard for starters but it will be rewarding.
Utilities: Warrior has some very good signets and you would not be totally wrong in just equipping 5 signets and the trait “Deep Strike” for more precision. I’m not saying that you should, but it’s not wrong for leveling. For new players that way to go just seems so good. And it is, on paper. You will notice the lack of real situational stimulation pretty quick though I reckon. For example signets have a passive effect, but as soon as you use the skill that passive effect goes inactive. More often than not the passive is what makes it look good on paper as it generally boosts your Hero Panel stats. However when you get to higher levels that is not the best option. To be honest most utilities are viable so you should just test your wings really. For healing skill you should open with Healing Signet, largely considered to be the best healing for us warriors at the moment.
It will not be long before you can open all of your utility skills so I wouldn’t be too worried about putting them wrong. At your level you can just run around collecting skillpoints and it goes very fast to gather.
