If you want to pk,
-- you will find hand/whip a very newbie friendly build. I'd suggest cloud giant for permafly, village (to dive into pk) or herald (for learning how to prep a warrior) or storm giant outlander. Typical legacies are damage increasing legacies like cry of thunder and/or chilling to make up for the lack of weapon-related damroll. Swap out either weapon for axes if you want a slightly more challenging build.
If you want to explore
-- polearm + axe cloud/storm herald. Polearm for bleeding and defense, axe for disembowel and weaponbreak. Maelstrom so you can see hidden npcs, and whispers or cry of thunder for healing.
