There are no weapons or armor in the cash shop so combat has no P2W elements.

Most things from the cash shop can be acquired without spending real money as long as you're willing to wait. Other goons have already covered most of it but I wanted to add that IMO the only must-have item from the cash shop is the tent. The tent can't be acquired outside the cash shop but as new players you don't need to worry about the tent for a long time, as it's something that is needed only when you start doing heavy endgame grinding for PvE and maybe some lifeskills.

Besides the tent there are also the lifeskill costumes that J mentioned. These can be really helpful but I personally think they're not as important as the tent.

Finally there are the cash shop items related to horse skills and fairy skills. The skills that a horse or fairy gets are random and if you get a bunch of bad ones you need to use these cash shop items to reset their skills and re-train new ones. It can get pretty bad but there are ways around this. First, horses can be bought and sold on the player marketplace so you can just grind for silver and then buy a good horse instead of training one yourself. The game is also currently giving away a free Tier 8 horse with one of the rarest skills automatically learned, which is really good and will be enough for most players. Lastly, the skill reset items are occasionally given away for free or made available to purchase with Loyalties, the free log-in points, so it's possible to get enough freebies to make a fairy with the best skills if you're lucky.
