in Rift
Ok, so i started a warrior, and took on Champion as my main soul, seeing as he's the power house, any suggestion's on souls i should take to compliment the champion, are there any warrior soul's that give some type of healing, so i can MOW through leveling? and any advice on a good pvp path to take seeing i like to mix my leveling with warfronts and quests

Champs are alpha wolves in pvp right now. Riftblade synchs very well, and I like throwing in beastmaster for the lolcat and +hit.
The few self-heals that a warrior has are in souls that don't mesh well with champ, imo. Riftblade gives you some ranged options that will be worth far more than a trickle of healing.

Reaver is the best at self-healing, but you need to be 21-22 pts deep for best results. Void Knight can heal themselves when they get pacts, but again that ability is deep in the tree. Paladin's have some self-healing, but it's also deep in the tree and requires a shield.
If you want to go with champion, you're just going to have to rely on others to heal you. As for pvp, I play Reaver/pally/paragon and top the dmg done practically every round while using a shield. It's mostly ae damage, but you become a lightning rod for the opposing team which is what a good tank should do.
I love champ, but you'll just have to learn to live with your health bar taking a one way trip to zero unless there are healers around.
EDIT: I took riftblade and paragon to compliment champ. Para has +dmg +crit along with follow up attacks. Riftblade has stormblade and elemental flux early that can give your dps a giant boost.
