For an early load, I like Sword of Swiftness [substituted by Frost/Flame sword when necessary], Faithful, Shield of Valor, Charcoal Shield. Add an elemental armour or rainbow armour (depends on whether elemental resistance or MR is most important), horror helmet, ring of regeneration, and boots of reinvigoration, and you can fight for a long, long, time.
Of course, in a long game vs the AI, I prefer empowering the Nataraja into a four-armed archmage wannabe in the mid-game, dual-wielding Staves of the Elements (one of each of the two types). That makes for one very impressive elemental mage. [Probably not worth basing a strategy around in MP, though ]
