As a warrior as my only 60, and not well geared, who casually raids as stated in OP. I'm content. It's very possible to casually enjoy raiding over time if warrior is your only character and you don't have plat. Eventually the dkp adds up to big upgrades for you. A best on slot legs, or feet or helm. The biggest thing I'd suggest keeping in mind as a casual warrior onky raider, is epic and super best in slot items you get from hall of testing quests that require Doze highly valued tears (ruby tear, platinum tear) should be forgotten. And to go for 2nd-3rd best items that are simple drops from dragons etc. But even without epic (get epic if you want, you can get awesome awesome dps 2hers and 1hers simply raiding over time. Dont let me stop you if you want lightsabers. It'll probably cost you 2-5months of dkp saved up though for the green dragon scales alone, thats the bottleneck) . There are times I'm asked to log a cleric bot due to me being the lower geared warrior, for fights like avatar of war.. where the extra cleric is honestly the better play no matter my gear on qarrior.. if I already was the 5th in line to tank, etc. Avatar of war is the king of clerics needed fights. So play warrior if you want! Trys 60 ogre warrior Green is main, some other green warrior only pkayers i know, who eventually got all bis items whos broke after too are Supository 60 ogre warrior green (think he's bis now-basically) he onky plays warrior and doesn't farm either. Keep the 10k, imo, for consumable recharging things like wc cap, funding thug gate pots, and the 1 charge 1k plat, instant gate pot to bind. There are more steps , considerations to successfully budget raid as warrior but that's a start. Save the plat for recharging, Hit 60, join imo good guys for most opportunities for raids, and casually pick and choose what you care to raid. The raid scene, racing, rule set and strategies are another fun challenging learning curve once you hit 60 anyways. A whole new challenge after 60. Hope something helps. I plan to play this for years. So not in a rush to bis when I can only casually play as well. Its fun though still

I played in classic era quit when I hit 50, and recently returned to game in velious era. As I was 50 upon returning, first thing i did was camp eyepatch of plunder stormfeather mob. Got all the map pieces besides Lodi piece. And leveled to 55 without a haste item. First thing I'd suggest to another is get kunark or velious cheap good ratio weapi s if you don't have. I came back at 59 with lower guk yaks, and a paw sword. Asap replaced my weapons and got a summon bandage dagger, which was 1.5k at the time and max my bandage skill. And group or solo finding creative npcs with low hp that were blue depending on your level. I moved to a different not each level. I did 50-52 placeholder for named giant in prison camp EW, 52-53? faerie dragons WL, 53-56? Halas 3 guard rotation mid map(with 100% druid or shm buffs up due to always a dru/shm in zone farming ice giants. Ez to request regen/buffs refresh) permafrost, 56/58-60swamp killing lvl 45 grik- there are other similar npcs in world (think 4-5?, but I just chose grik). Soloing to 60 as warrior could take you months, so grouping us advised, but I was patient and eventually hitv60.
