Default Level 30 Iksar SK wondering about how to prioritize upcoming purchases

Hi!

I’ve got a level 30 Iksar Shadow Knight that I mostly solo with. I’ve dabbled in lots of classes (37 Monk, 35 Enchanter, 34 Druid, 34 Shaman, 32 Ranger), but never gotten a character above 40 on either live or P99, and I’m hoping to make my SK the one to go the distance.

I did some saving and have outfitted myself with an Ebon Mace, an Atramentous Shield, Silver Chitin Hand Wraps, 2x Velium Fire Wedding Rings, a post-nerf Circlet of Shadows, and made myself a full set of Cabilis scale armor (that I’ll be upgrading over the next 10-15 levels with quested Dreadscale armor). I feel quite solidly geared at this point — doing 24-30 in Warslik’s Woods has honestly been a breeze, and I’m starting to save up a little chunk of pp again (currently at ~1500pp).

My question is how y’all would recommend prioritizing upcoming purchases. A few things I’m eyeing medium-to-long-term are: J-boots for quality of life, cooldown reset, and survivability; a regen item (Ceremonial Iksar Chestplate or, eventually, a fungi) for reduced downtime (although I know long-term the bottleneck for SKs is mana regen); a Reaver for better DPS; upgraded haste (RBB or Cloak of Crystalline Waters, maybe?), also for DPS obviously, and it's just fun to hit fast; and a pre-nerf Circlet of Shadow (seems extremely good! But also way more expensive and hard for me to conceptualize its true utility until having one, I think).

Obviously that’s a wide range of items (and prices), most of which are more platinum than I’ve ever had/spent before with any other character, so this might be a sort of academic question at this point, but I think I like having a concrete goal to be saving toward. (I’m also working toward Greenmist, which has been a lot of fun so far and feels like the big goal I have for this character as I get higher in level.)

So, if it were you, which of those things would be your priority/priorities, or are there other items that feel like must-haves that you’d recommend I work toward instead/as well?

Thanks all!
