If this is your first character on this server, consider a class like necro, enchanter or Druid. Paladins are a lot of fun, and not nearly as gear dependent as a warrior, but still gear dependent nonetheless.
Also, being able to solo is a big deal on this server, as I have noticed that the pool of sub 40 players is shrinking. You will of course still be able to find groups, but it's not like how it was when I started 4 years ago here.
