In addition to what Samoht mentioned, avoid all the ivy etched pieces except the sleeves, they aren't really any good and there's better and more cost effective alternatives in the other slots. You want to maximize AC/STR in every slot and there are plenty of cheap items that accomplish this.
Some of the sebilite scale/kylong pieces are pretty good with a decent contribution of AC and STR.
The single greatest gear decision you can make as a noob ranger is to pick up a Silver Swiftblade 1-20, and then a Woodsman's Staff 20-epic. Avoid dual wielding; it really sucks balls. Unless you're constantly tanking, avoid most of the tolan's pieces and pick up an AC/STR compromise in that slot.
Definitely avoid any kind of cultural usable by a ranger.
