55 HP rings are a great start...for any char actually.
You want to get +HP and +INT gear mostly.
Here's a good page to check out on WIKI:

At level 33, my gear is pretty crappy, but I've been trying to pump
up my INT more so my mana pool grows. When I get to higher
levels I will focus more on HP gear, since it's easier to convert
HP to mana later.
Some items that have INT and are less than 500pp:
Gatorscale Sleeves
Stein of Moggok
Batskull Earrings
Braided Cinch Cord
Polished Bone Bracers or Bracelet of Woven Grass
Glowing Bone Collar
Nightshade Wreath
Sheer Bone Mask
A good weight reduction bag is useful also to hold heavy vendor loot.
J-Boots would be very useful, but I have no idea how easy it is to do on
this server. Might be possible to camp AC if you play in off hours.
