Subject: Armor Choices


I've just hit 25, aquired Treant fists, and amassed a bit of plat. So,
I was wondering if any of my sensei's out there could let me know what I
should be shopping for. I'm wearing cured silk, except the following:

Executioners' Hood
Spiked Collar (+3 STR, 3 AC)
Bracer of Erollisi (+5 STR, 5AC)
Serpentine Bracer (I've got 2, but prefer the ac of the erollisi)
Treant Fists
2 Jagged Bands
Onyx Earring (+2 AGI)
Earring from the bartender in unrest (+5 cha, ? AC) -- wearing for the AC
Foreman's Tunic

Questions:

Should I sell the foreman's tunic, and get a lockjaw for 2 more AC?

I've seen gatorscale stuff that drops in guk. Looks like caster armor, mostly,
but we can wear it, and the AC is very high. Should I save up and buy that one
piece at a time? (Leggings alone are around 700p)

What level should I consider trying for the Robe of the Lost Circle? I have
the purple headband (and black, and blue), and the red sash already).

Are there any *light* 1H blunt weapons that I can cary around to practice with?
Normally, I just join a HK group and duel wield cracked staves, hoping no one
will notice that I'm not doing much damage :) But, when I'm the only tank,
I can't afford that much AC loss.

Should I buy a weight reducing bag? How much should I pay? I don't normally
carry anything at all with weight, besides armor and maybe a couple of weapons
that will, when wielded, take me over 15 anyway.


Thanks in advance!
