Returning red warrior questions

[Thik]

Been away for a bit (pre-velious), coming back and rolling a warrior.

As of now the plan is basically, troll warrior on red server.

Managed to get haste gloves and some other basic gear +Wurmslayer and Shimmering Partisan for omg look at that beast! fear factor

Thinking about goin all +dex on creation for more procs when I get to that level range. Is this a bad idea? (I'm thinking my +str gear and innate Troll str will be enough to hold me over till I can eventually max the stats in the long run)

I'm not too concerned with the details of min/max pve but I do wonder if I would be a lot better off with some alternative weapons? I'll probably do some solo play with intermittent groups as available.

Are there any other velious alternatives for gearing that I might keep an eye out for in trade?

Thanks for the help
