Looking for advice on Gildings/Equipment

[MagicManICT]

What sort of equipment should my miner be wearing? Aka how long does he keep rocking nettle gear...

Some options for you:

http://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Bear_Hide (not actually that good due to the gilding slot issues, but it's easily available as a nettle transition item)

I tend to go with the cape when I can get a bear hide. Better STR overall. I think I wore it for a month or so before I gave it up last world I made a real run at the game. At that point, our tailor finally got me something better.

And don't forget the necklace.

If you are lucky dust gems of larger sizes gives a lot of per. I have mine with like +11 perc + 8 masonry with quality of 10.
