For early equipment, just go with whatever you can get until you can piece together the Defenders of Aleroth set. That lasted me until Ulthring's. Also one thing I feel I should note: For the very early levels (1-8 or so) just use a bow. Keep your DEX at 1, but just use the best bow you can find.

At that level the lack of dex has almost no impact on your damage and the ability to auto-attack at range and kite things is invaluable. Ditch the bow as soon as your spells start getting powerful and you can actually survive in melee though. As you might know already, trying to melee in the first part of broken valley sucks. Goblin Chiefs especially will wreck you.
