The objective of this post is to describe the best items for a poet at certain levels.  This is intended for early poets obviously since it is progresses and is based around levels, but there may be a few items that are listed that are great from Level 1 and onward.

Poets have it pretty easy as far as items go, compared to other paths.  Most of our items cost less to buy new than to repair (Pearl charm *shutters*).

Level 1-14: Hyun Moo/Totem Helm - Nice/average -ac, and little stat boost.  Sea ring(s) (quested), Frost sabre, Spring gown/robes.  *Recommended to keep buying the next level of Robe/Gown from the seem/seemstress all the way up to Earth.
Level 15: Purple Rings - Not a poet specific item but great for that -ac you need at this level.
Level 40: Fragile Roses - Easy to buy, nice little stat boost for their level, but very low dura so they are not that great of a hunting item.
Level 50: Sen gloves - going to cost a lot to purchase and high repair, so not recomended till a higher.  Can do Poet whip quest for a weapon, but a wicked staff is a reasonable comparison.
Level 60: Pearl charm(helm) - Not better than a Totem helm, but has a good will increase, so some people tend to favor it for carnages to
increase spell success rate.
Level 66: Can start the Star quest for a better armor
Level 70: White moon axe - Best pre-95 weapon for a poet to wear due to it's cheap repairs, non-BOD, and good stat bonus.
Level 76: Can start the Moon quest for a better armor
Level 86: Can start the Sun quest for a better armor
Level 95: Purified Water - very cheap and affordable, and very great stat boosts/-AC for that level.
Level 96: Can start the Wind quest for a better magical propertied armor for a bit of -AC sacrifice.
