Well, signature says Grandmaster, so I'm guessing he's mostly concerned about taking some hits, pulling, off tanking here and there, solo/group content at 60. With that in mind I'd learn spider eyes. Adding 35 HP at the cost of 4 AC seems like a good deal for me. I think it's important to look at your char as a whole.

Djarns Ring to Velium Fire Ring is +6 AC and -15 HP.

Ice Burrower Skin from White Lotus Chest Wraps (SS Quest) is +6 AC, -9 HP (counting stam and raw HP, and assuming not at stamina cap). That change has a lot of other stat differences and a right click effect but just using it as an example.

I love 0 weight on both, 8 ac is 2/3rds of of Targ's, and although "35 HP doesn't make or break anyone" it all adds up. You can put that together a non-raid gear set focused on HP/Sta/Resists/AC and easily be pushing up to 2600/2700+ hp unbuffed - which makes a huge difference pulling. If you're really low on HP or AC b/c of some of your other items then maybe prioritize AC over HP or vice versa where you can. Again you want to build out a well rounded char - with solid HP, Resist, and AC. On this debate though I'm going Crystal Spider eyes.

Some other comparable items are:
Eyepatch of the Shadows - decent but a little more expensive.
MAGIC ITEM LORE ITEM
Slot: FACE
AC: 4
DEX: +6 STA: +9
SV COLD: +4 SV MAGIC: +4
Effect: Ultravision (Worn, Casting Time: Instant)
WT: 0.1 Size: TINY
Class: ALL
Race: ALL

Eyepatch of Plunder - Quest item awesome stats, free, downside that it's not an easy camp. In my opinion this is pre-raid best in slot.
MAGIC ITEM LORE ITEM NO DROP
Slot: FACE
AC: 10
STR: +10 DEX: +10 HP: +50
SV FIRE: +6 SV DISEASE: +6 SV COLD: +6 SV MAGIC: +6 SV POISON: +6
Effect: Captain Nalots Quickening (Must Equip, Casting Time: 3.5)
WT: 0.5 Size: SMALL
Class: ALL
Race: ALL

I'd shoot for Eyepatch of Plunder when you get the chance, I know it's not easy but it's not so unobtainable to never give it a shot. Best of luck to you!
