Err...
PvE: a BIT of critical rate or no rate at all, else critical damage and hp where possible. Defense in slots is a big waste - which would you choose: 50hp/10% crit dmg or 2 defense?
PvP: amp and critical damage with or without tiny bit of critical rate.
Orbs: deathblow 2 slotted preffered with crit rate or damage, can be even aqua if it's crafted and 2 slot
Martialset: helm of deathblow with rate or damage, damage in slots (or amp), boots of will with hp (or amp), suit of will with hp (or amp), gloves with... defense or attack rate, try to get amp ASAP.
Later on (mystic) try to get vampire helm, boots gloves (+3% leech, +80hp leech), earrings, amulet, maybe extortion bracelet.
