What cleric gear would you buy if you had 5k?

I'd spend one maybe two thousand on wis gear, I'd buy a good weapon. Then I suggest saving the rest.

You'll gain enough cash in your first 30 levels to make wis gear purchases. Nothing is going to be worth more to you than jboots. If you have 5.5k then jboots and 5/55 rings. But yeah, jboots.. you get horrid return on mana per point of wisdom till you hit level 30+, so PKTs and nightshade wreaths and efreeti boots and whatever are going to be expensive ways to play needless dress up in the meantime.

As for a wis weapon, you can try roaming around Kithicor forest and check wether any group is killing undeads there. If so, you can ask them to let you know if any Ruined Battleworn Morning Star drops.

hmm, is the jboots quest hard?
I have a lv43 rogue with mediocre gear I could try with, and a lv 50 bard friend I could possibly call in to help, or is the AC perma camped and all that?

It's perma camped, mainly because ppl MQ it for 5k.

I disagree with Bubbles (but everyone has their own opinion). I'd say try to build 200 wis as soon as you can.

+6 wis rings, the Platinum Ruby Veil, Bloodstained tunic (cheap, or free if you go to Unrest and one drops), those quested golden cleric bracers (Bracers of the Reverent...do it twice as they aren't lore).

In essence, look at this page for a guideline: http://wiki.project1999.org/Cleric#Pre-Planar

Sure, Jboots are nice and they'll probably save you a few deaths but they aren't a necessity.

If you're looking to solo or want to be the best cleric you can be, you need a decent mana pool - aim for 200 wis or as close as you can get it as early as possible. After that, think more towards secondary stats.

Agreed with Swish. When I played on live my main was a Cleric and I didn't group lot unless there was a raid. I was Mr. Solo-Dolo, I did the same thing where building up wisdom is better than getting JBoots
