Re: Looking for advice
A nice cheap combo is vine shield, eye shield, faithful and a random other magic weapon. You'll need reinvig though.

Re: Looking for advice
In the case of only 1 slot, I'd take the MR boosting helmet over horror helmet, and then the amulet of reinvig.
They can use two bows (two storm bows would be nice). I'm pretty sure of that one.

Re: Looking for advice
Mmmm, 2 Storm Bows, Boots of Quickness, Rainbow Armor, Girdle of Might, Starshine Skullcap..... Only need, you know, W, A, S, N..... Easy as pie! 
As for melee, if you can't afford fancier shields or can't get the reinvig you want, you can always do a couple of Weightless Kite Shields, for 0 Enc, they have great Parry value for Cons2. |

Re: Looking for advice
Hmmm that spurts out another thought. Ive had some good results by putting a monolith up front and let it take the brunt while my archers and mages did damage. A "mobile monolith" could be interesting.
If you went total defense, what could you rack it up to? 4 shields? And a number of shields are also offensive. Some armor also. Let it wade in on an "attack rearmost" command.

Re: Looking for advice
Depends what you are up against, but sopmething like Aegis + Barrier + charcoal shield + lucky coin, reinvig/MR items, maybe helm of horror would be a can'o'mobile hurt.

Re: Looking for advice
What good is a Horror Helm without Awe? Isn't the goal to kill?
