Help me gear a basically naked 50 warrior

[Ooloo]

So a friend of mine played on green very early and rapidly leveled a warrior to 50 and then quit long before kunark came out, giving me his account when he left. He has mostly bronze armor and bad gear from vanilla era, so I'm just considering it naked.

I want to try playing a tank so I'm going to gear him up and try leveling him to 60. I've never played a warrior or any other tank class before, so it should be a fun and painful and hilarious learning experience.

I have about 20k to gear him with, so my main question is what should I buy given what's now available in velious? I also have no idea how disciplines work, or which ones are worth using, or when\where to use them. Any general tips or knowledge would be great, the wiki has guides but they aren't really extensive and I'd rather defer to the knowledge of people who have played warriors into the end game.

Also he's a gnome.
