Another Duo recommendation thread!

Your #1 priority is going to be +CHA gear on the enchanter in every single slot.

#2 priority I suppose +WIS gear for the druid.

I find on characters the most important and useful thing to have on them is hp rings. 55hp/5ac rings can be bought from Stockmarket (the player in EC) for 225pp each. The raw hps is a huge help adding to your survivability. Stats are great, but they are useless if you die easily and raw hps give you toughness.

Any raw mana or hp items tend to benefit you greatly over main stat items for a very long time, and typically they can be found to be cheaper.

Don't hesitate to buy raw mana or hp items when you see them for sale.

*When you can do it, Testament of Vanear for the druid, it's a quest gives +10wis book for offhand.

**For druid, I would strongly consider any race other than half elf, I started my first character on P99 as a half elf druid, and it took years to really get him to a point where his awful starting wisdom wasn't gimping him.

starting out 15 wisdom less than humans and 20 less than woodelves and halflings may not sound like a big deal but if you are undergeared, 15 wisdom points really can make a big difference when you starting out.

Tunare druids have more quests available, more items to work on like the deity root necklace. Humans, woodelves and half elves can be Tunarean druids.

Halflings cannot be Tunare druids, but level significantly faster than other races and get hide/sneak which can prove to be useful.

Yeah we both have 4AC / 45HP rings. They were half the price of the 5/55 and thought them a better investment at this time to save money for other equipment.

The enchanter we have double fisting it with steins (Moggok and Crude). We also killed the cursed guy in NK and got a gypsy medallion and bought a Oracle robe for him. From memory I think his CHA is about 150.

The druid is a halfling.. He is mostly using found items or really cheap stuff except for the rings. He still has a lot of the low skill tailoring stuff... Patched leather I think. I do have a shark bone warhammer and was able to loot a cracked dark wood shield and spent 80 on a pair of +3 wis earrings. A nice high level druid caught me running by and gave me split paw gloves and chest. We killed a named wolf in NK and got some arms.

So have some reasonable starting equipment. We plan on doing NRo then heading to lake of ill omen to try to get a invis ring or two for charming.

None of the good clickies are usable before at least level 45 so don't worry about it too much. The big item you want for charming is a Goblin Gazughi Ring and both of you will need one (arguably the enchanter needs it more) so that you can insta break your charm pets with invis - they cost a pretty penny (7k). Other than that just +mana items. I wouldn't worry about it to much - just grab gear as you level.
