Honestly, I wouldn't bother with the regen bp. That's 9k plat that could be poured into all your empty slots. Get a embalming knife to proc bandages, keep your bind wound up instead of relying on the regen bp. If you are grouping, the regen of that bp becomes even less important imo.

As stated above, the staff of battle is really nice. It will actually hold aggro better than 1h weapons unless you got some decent procs going on from 20 to 30, maybe even higher.

Another thing to consider, crusty armor is cheap and gives you the stats you lack as a DE warrior, that being str and sta.

If you make a de warrior, consider making him agnostic. This will help you work faction to bank in Freeport or other good cities easier if you want to do that.

Get a runed bow, it's cheap, hits hard as a lowbie. You will crit with it nicely.

Respectfully, the bolded advice is well-intentioned but terrible. Remember, it's not like he's pouring the money for the Iksar BP down a black hole. He can re-sell the thing at any point and recoup his investment, and they hold a steady value compared to a lot of other items. And the regen makes a huge difference 1-30 and a noticeable difference all the way up to 50. It's +50 HP per minute, which may not sound like a whole lot, but speaking as someone who has actually used one while leveling a Warrior, it's the difference between being able to solo fairly comfortably and just barely getting by with bandages (and remember the two are not mutually exclusive). Another way to look at it: it's like having a pocket Cleric toss you a Greater Heal every 6 minutes. It's very noticeable and very welcome while leveling, especially while solo or in small groups.

Regen and haste are the two most powerful benefits when leveling a melee. You should get the best of each you can afford.
