Hey all!

So I've just started new on P99 this past week. I played Live for many, many years as a raider - but never a bard, which is what I've decided to roll here as I love the busy playstyle and large skill ceiling.

I'm currently level 10, mostly grouping as that's what I enjoy and will probably continue to do for the foreseeable future, and only kiting when I can't get a group.

With that in mind, I'm curious what gear I should have on my radar? So far, after having bought my songs and vendor instruments I'm sitting at a healthy 2 plat. I know I can level almost naked, and I know from forums/internet research that banded armor is the stuff I want to strive for to start - but is there anything that I can acquire nowish/soon that would help me out? Should I just try and farm cash and buy stuff, as I've also read that bards are pretty cheap to starter gear?

I'd love any help you guys are able to provide, and thanks for all of the information that I've already been able to glean from all of the forum posts!
