My first character was a Halfling warrior. No twinking, mediocre gear but could solo every level on the way to the 50s. Early 50s was soloing bats in SolB with a ~20% haste and rampage proc 2hs.
I've since fresh started several warriors, and have never had the problems some on the forums suggest would be faced.
An effective thing is to start by killing decaying skeletons (North Ro Inns is my favourite spot) for a few levels. You'll quickly get a rusty weapon that will 1 hit kill these mobs and by the time you are finished with them you will have enough money just from cloth/rusty/bags to buy a decent weapon (green jade broadsword), plus a backpack full of bone chips which you can sell to fund a set of banded armour, maybe even hp/ac rings. Alternatively save the bone chips to hand in after a few more levels in kaladim.
