1) Play whatever class you want.
2) Don't freak out about gear.
3) Group with twinks if they'll have you in their groups, and enjoy the ride.
No twinked rogue is going to care if your new warrior can't hold aggro over his epic backstabs. You'll just get EXP faster for playing with people with good gear. If you want to buy up some low level items, there are ways to farm some plat (bone chips, high quality bear skins, spiderling silks, nybright sisters in lesser faydark) at low levels and get some really basic stuff that can make a difference (like some proccing weapons for a warrior). But really:
* You DO NOT NEED good gear to level. When the server (or any server) started, everyone had nothing, and they leveled up just fine. Once you are a high level, you can get good gear more easily.
* If other people in your group DO HAVE good gear, it just means you get to EXP faster because they are more of a help to you than they would be if they had the same kind of gear you do.
So, what is the problem?
