First and foremost, get yourself a Coldain ring. The hp and resist are great and it allows you to ditch the gobby earring. You can solo the entire quest up to part 9 where you'll need a hand (monk duo will probably do it for you). Depending on your wis you'll probably want a 65hp or djarn ring too.
You'll want to check out the Sanctum Guardian's Earring quest. Requires a balanced group or small raid force for the final part but the reward is well worth it. Your other earring should be a 35hp/25mp or ivandyr hoop, depending on wis requirements.
Depending on how good you are at clicking air, check out the Talisman of Benevolence for your range slot. Quest is available every 10 hours in WW, but is heavily contested. You'll occasionally find people selling loot rights for 20k if you're not having luck yourself.
Shaman and monk duo is perfect for farming Lodizal, get yourself a lodi shield to replace your SBS. While you've got your monk buddy the two of you should farm 6 neck dragons (the dragons guarding the entrance to ToV) for their talismans.
After that there's a couple gear pieces you can farm or save up plat for: hierophant cloak, crystal spider eyes, artic wyvern or thurg armor MQS (SS MQs being the priority if you've got the cash though). Can find a guild and start farming Halls of Testing too, the SS armor won't be replaced until you're doing some serious raiding. You might also get the chance to loot a Chestplate of Vindication too.
