Also be resourceful. Have invis potions or a Larrikan's mask. Have IVU potions. Have SOW potions or jboots. Know your way to camps. Have an OT gate hammer. You are a burden to your group if they have to fight out to get you or fight out to let you leave. There's a lot of utility we can gain from having the right items in inventory.
Have some decent magic resist. When you are considering Cobalt vs Indicolite, look at the pieces that have DEX and Magic Resist - consider how useful that is. AC only helps us with melee hits. Have MR gear in a bag, swap out when/if you are fighting in a camp with lots of casters and your group isn't stunning everything efficiently. You are not helpful to a group if every nuke, root, poison or slow is sticking to you.
