Playing a warrior without lots of friends/a guild/plat will suck. Here's why:
- You will have lots of downtime with your only healing coming from bandages. Without racial sneak, you'll either have to carry them and restock (can be problematic) or go without.
- You're dependent on other players for everything. Not just heals and CC, but invis, levitate, run speed, really basic stuff you don't even think about when you're an established player.
- You have no access to many of the good money making methods as a warrior. You're shit at soloing and without decent gear, so-so at duoing since you have no pulling tools. This means you're fighting uphill from day 1.
- No plat = no clickies to fix any of the above, and a lot of the stuff you'd need is nodrop/trade, which means you can't exactly transfer it if you end up not enjoying the class.
I leveled a warrior, monk, and shaman. A few months after I took some time to start playing semi-seriously (got the shaman to 55, monk to 51, warrior to 30 since), I received the funds from 2 friends to purchase a fungi and some nice melee weapons. Even then, playing the warrior felt like garbage. Having access to a fungi is basically OP's best case scenario.
In every other game, I play a warrior. In this game it feels like hell unless you're decked out. You can't do anything without help or clickies. Can't split spawns, can't outrun mobs, can't port, can't invis, etc. I guess you could make a halfling warrior for racial sneak, but I'd suggest playing a monk instead. Hell, even SKs can fear kite.
I honestly wouldn't suggest playing a warrior unless you either really, really want to and know what you're in for, or you have a fungi and enough cash for good haste and good weapons
