Fresh 60 TR lookin for some advice

So my first character (TR) just hit 60. I'm sure there are lots of threads like these but some seem pretty old and possibly out dated.
I'm curious what I can do with my weakk~5k gear score? I only have like 70k AD from leveling, I'd possibly buy some Zen but I don't even know what kind of gear to look for.
I will most likely be doing more PvP than PvE but would like to be viable in both. Which lvl 60 dungeons can I run off the bat? (It is a Dungeon Delve right now so I'd like to hop right into one for the bonus).

Use your 70k AD to get good trinkets from AH: rings, neck, waist
Slot rank 5 enchants and should have enough GS to do earlier T2 dungeons; and definitely enough to do any T1 dungeon (actually are over geared for them at that point).
Perhaps get the trinkets from AH first, then go in and PvP for the rest.
1. Run T1 dungeons, (namely Cragmire Crypts and Cloak Tower). They only have a 5700 GS requirement, and drop T1 gear and Unicorn seals.
2. Choose "Need" on any items you could use, and greed on other blues/purples.
3. Sell the items from the above, that you won't use, on the AH. I tend to sell for a bit less than the suggested price, for a quick sale.
4. If you can get in on a Dungeon Delve, do. They give extra items and seals at the end.
5. Look at the shirt and pants you are using, (in the gear tab, not the fashion tab). If they are under the level 50 versions, then grab a set of those - they should cost around 300 AD for a set. Hold off on getting the blue or purple quality shirt & pants for now, as they can be expensive.
6. Prioritize what pieces of gear you want to get first. For instance, I find that the Unicorn Seal vendor has decent armor, rings, and weapons, but their selection of belts and boots is kinda lacking for most classes. The dungeon delves, (again in my experience), tend to give torso armor and boots a lot, so I look to them if I need.
7. You'll often find people selling items in zone chat for gold. Gold has less utility, IMO, at level 60, (as you only need it for things like potions or injury kits), so you may be able to find some good deals there. Most T1 stuff goes for about 3-5G while T2 stuff can be 7G and up.
8. Don't underestimate enchantment and rune drops. You can get a lot form running those T1 dungeons, and if you fuse them to make R5's, they sell for 3-5K ADs on the AH. I tended to use R4s for my own stuff until I got outfitted with gear I planned on keeping for a while.
Just a note - some people trash the seal items, but I feel that they are a great and readily available source of purple items for new level 60 characters.

Check out the different gear available here.
I have found several Level 60 TR (non-guilded) that I have helped equip with various armour, enchants (high level of course), purple companions, blue level craftsman etc....it is just the lefty winger" in me plus the more that play the game that are happy the better is the community. Please note though that I am NOT a PVP player, so I wont have anything in that field. If you are on Dragon Server, send me a PM and I will help you out. I just had someone call me "Santa" last evening simply for helping them out with some craftsmen.
Sadly I'm on Mindflayer, Radick. I've seen several people from Beholder/Dragon offer to help out too, heh =X
Really want an advice from an experienced player? Del your TR and quit this mmo. It will do you more harm in the long run if you continue to play any games by CRAPTIC

You are free to play any class you want. But real advice here my friend, if you really wanted to play TR because you love the class then do so, because if you really do, no matter what happens you'll stick to it. Try not to play a class just because it's not yet hit by nerf bat.
I have similar worries as the other folks here about the coming nerf, I guess we're all just holding our breath (and our wallets) until we can see what damage it does on the live servers.
The domination pvp gear is actually pretty good, it extends stealth by 20%. The GG gear is an upgrade of that, 25%. It will take you a couple of matches though, but imo, it's very worth it.
Personally I've started all my classes with pvp-gear as I just don't like to enter dungeons in my greens and get one-two-shot every time.
Thing is, we just don't know how the changes will impact gameplay for the TR, and most fear for the worst (myself included). I reckon it's better to wait with tweaking your stats with enchantments and jewelry gear until that gets sorted.
And also imo, it's not the class that brings the benefit to the group, it's the player. Fight smart and you'll make friends, no worries.
Nope, it will not. If you are afraid of lacking of power, you can slot few rank 5-6 radiant enchantments since they are pretty cheap. Also, Armor penetration stat on PvP weapons can be considered as the replacement of power stat. Anyway, t1 pvp set is recommended for any fresh 60.
In t1 dungeons, as long as you are not dead and keep flurry on mobs and boss, your damage would be very decent or even better than any other classes. Thus, do not worry much about dmg output.
Actually, that's the rogue nerf that hurts the most. We won't be able to stay up. Well, I guess we'll see, but I don't think so.
On top of all of this, they're also destroying Rogues' ability to attack in stealth, so stealth will only be a tool to open with an Encounter such as Lashing Blade to always make it crit and use stealth to run away/hide in PvP. It will no longer be the class' main feature that we've all been accustomed to and what this class' paragon path was built upon, along with gears they've designed for us. Rogues will basically be a squishy single-target damage Fighter class with less OP CCs, less AoE capability, and much lower Defense.
If you're a newbie Rogue, I highly suggest you wait to see if they go through with the class-destroying nerfs before grinding / paying for gear. Veteran Rogues who are already geared up will have to make adjustments to still do good damage in PvE and will find new ways to still own people in PvP, but newbie Rogues won't stand a chance in both PvE or PvP. If they do go through with this patch and you're a newbie Rogue, reroll into a CW, GF, or GWF for PvE and a GWF or GF for PvP. Sorry to say, but you've wasted time on leveling a Rogue to 60.
