NegaStoat has great thoughts on this.
The one point I would differ on with most people on the boards is putting points in Strength; I prefer to. Worst-case you throw 25 points away that aren't ideal at the end game. That said, 25 STA for a top-guild raid Warrior isn't going to change the outcome of the raid. Not that those folks have a problem capping anything anyways.
The only toon I've had that I was never overweight was my Ogre SK (I prob put strength into him too 20 years ago). You start stacking ac/hp gear and it doesn't always have strength. It's also not always light.
Starting out being able to pack an extra 25 pounds of bronze/FS to sell will help you get those first few armor items on your wish list. It might even save your life not being encumbered when a Sand Giant is chasing you to the zone line.
