You may say I'm a dreamer
I'm not the only one
I hope some day you will join us
And the world will live as one
Thinking of strange days
And wet-dream escapades
Oh this summer is sweet sleep
Because we are living day dreams

With the ability to sell back skills and specialize skills after startup, it doesn't really matter what you start as. And it depends on how hardcore a mele'er you want to be. Not much a challenge anymore. But you'll still be second class citizen when compared to all the mages.
If you want 'efficiency' in powerleveling start an archer, get a 130 mod bow, and have at it until level 20. After that, sword is currently the most powerful weapon without buffs, dagger & axe second, UA third.
If you want to be a pure melee with little to no magic, pick sword or axe. If you want to be a mage with a weapon, pick dagger or UA.
