If you just started playing this might be a bit to much but here are some pointers for end game if you like:

But yea for PvE I would recommend 2 sword and board set us but I also recommend that you level either two handed, dual wield or bow to use for fights like the Engine Guardian and the Planar Inhibitor, it will also help a lot in PvP. I don't PvP much and I'm basically just a debuffer and distrupter not doing much dmg at all but there are tanks a lot better than me at PvP that would know better what to do there but meh. I still have fun in PvP my way and it helps my dps buddies kill *** easier and in IC I can take the agro of any mobs that might come along during PvP so if they target us I can take it off my friends but of course if it targets the enemies I leave them be.
