Default 50k to Spend on Twink Warrior Weapons. What do you buy?

Looking to start a warrior and wondered what weapons you guys would pick up with a 50k budget?

I would like to group when possible but I imagine i'll do a bunch of soloing too.

What's my best bet?

Is this 50k in addition to other items you are giving said warrior, or do you have 50k to spend and no pre-existing items? My post will assume the latter, you have 50k and no other items. I am also assuming you are on blue.

If you have 50k, spend it on a Fungi Tunic. That is the best thing you can get for soloing 1-50. Since you have 50k I assume you have a high level character. This means you can farm some more plat for your weapons.

To answer your weapon question, https://wiki.project1999.com/Reaver is generally one of the best leveling weapons for any class that can use it. For levels 1-30 when you have the damage caps, buy https://wiki.project1999.com/Venomou...e_Velium_Brood for it's good ratio and 75DD that can proc at level 1. When you can start dual wielding something like https://wiki.project1999.com/Fist_of_Zek is cheap and pretty good for offhand. Some people get https://wiki.project1999.com/Wrapped..._Serpent_Spine for low level grouping (myself included) as it also procs at level 1, but mobs die very fast 1-30, so you probably aren't going to proc that weapon much while the mob is alive lol.

Once you hit 50, get 2x https://wiki.project1999.com/Blood_Point and a https://wiki.project1999.com/Truncheon_of_Doom if you plan on soloing in your 50s.

Also make sure to get a haste item, obviously. If you want to be cheap https://wiki.project1999.com/Silver_Chitin_Hand_Wraps or https://wiki.project1999.com/Flowing_Black_Silk_Sash is the way to go, depending on how you want to fill out the hand/belt slots.

I should have mentioned it but I do have a fungi and cof so the 50k is just for weapons. Reavers a good suggestion though I'll pick that up.

I agree with Wurmslayer. Have one on my level 23 Warrior and it is pretty awesome even with 22% haste. The crits are fun, and I chew through mobs. He is currently using Wurmslayer + Fist of Zek for solo DPS. Croaking dirk ratio is a tiny bit better than Fist of Zek I agree, but I am too lazy to buy one for such a small difference personally. Also the +20 STR is nice on my gnome to help with carry weight and a bit of extra damage. Maybe I will consider it now that croaking dirk price has gone down so much, they used to be quite expensive. The quest for Wurmslayer isn't too difficult either if you want to save some money and have a high level character, but Wurmslayer isn't too expensive, and it probably takes around the same time to do as farming the plat. But it was a fun quest.

If you plan on soloing at all as a warrior or really any Melee Class, get a fungi. 100% most important piece of gear in my opinion. Everything else only provides small marginal improvements. Going from cheap decent Weapons to Super good weapons only helps a little. Even haste only helps a little bit. The largest detriment to a melee classes ability is long it takes to Regen HP compared to Casters ability to Regen Mana. Also, Melee only strategy for soloing is to do more damage to the thing before it out damages you. At higher levels this only gets more difficult. HP regen will be the most amazing boon on your solo ability.

I’ve always wanted a Runed Blade. Always enjoy using Axe of the Slayers in 30s and the kael equivalent in 40s (forgot the name). Runed blade seems a bargain for a couple of k since it has a bigger absorb and better buff stacking.

Good luck finding one though.

I spend lots of plat on consumables like potions cos I don’t really enjoy buying/selling to players.

The 170hp/stun pots are pretty decent in the early/mid levels.

Tink bags are my other plat dump when I’m unable to sink plat into consumables faster than it piles up.

Offer 50k to riot and vanquish for loot rights on Frostreaver. Level 1 to 60 with it.

Great tank weap, great aggro, good dps.

Otherwise go loot a rotting infestation in DN, and any random offhand that’s not horrible for under 10k. Buy a 5k reaver for when solo/duo/trio/not magic reqd.

Ah, didn't see this post. I didn't know you already have a fungi plus haste gear. Grats on that by the way. I second the Frostreaver. Very good 2hander with High Damage proc. That is if your warrior's race can use it. Only problem with Reavers are they don't have the magic flag on them, so they won't do damage to certain types of mobs.
