Few months ago during 1.4 I made a new blademaster and cleared the story mode recently without adding any skill points to test the charms and gears. You don't need to buy any thing until you get past the goblin tunnel. And because the gold is scarce at low level, don't buy or upgrade any armors and spend it on removing the charms; then you should have enough gold saved for weapons that are 10+ tiers higher than the world drops. If the weapons from shop isn't unlocked beyond 10+ tier then you should push for the story mode until it unlocks and buy it. With amount of gold saved, that weapon should last you for good 4~6 levels, at which point, you should have saved more gold to purchase the next 10+ tier weapon from the current one. In 1.5 it IS much more difficult to push on the story mode thanks to the devs removing the unlimited 0 gem HP pots from inventory pot section (I abused it a lot during boss fights), but it's important to push the story mode on and always unlock 10 tiers higher weapons. If you push on and keep folding charms, you should have several level 8 charms made before you hit level 30. Charms important at low levels are Power/Fort, Heart/Bandit(..if you are lucky), Storm/Winter. Triangle slots, pretty much you just socket the higher level ones, they don't make much difference. But Star sockets wise, Soldier and Blessing are absolute garbage as level 1 Storm charm is better than level 5 Soldier/ level 4 Blessing.

If you have a ultra high powered main and want a retarded easy mode for an alt, you can grind blood match for the Sanguine weapon (shows up once every 5 weeks) and give it to a level 3 alt... just don't PVP with that alt, as it's just not fair to other players. =)
