Answer 1

Hi There

Lets start from Helmet:

1st option. is  Zaoan Helmet- Arm:9, Protection physical +5% + 1 Imbuement - Where you can put Mana Leech 

2nd option is  Dwarven Helmet- Arm 6:, protection physical +2% + 2 Imbuements - Mana Leech  For Offensive type of hunting as you can put skill Imbue on that

3rd option is- Prismatic Helmet -  Arm,:9, Shielding +1, protection physical +5% - available from 150 level only for knights - No Imbuement- when you do not want to spend money for imbue as you do not believe spawn is worth it

Armor:

- Prismatic Armor - Arm: 15, speed+15, protection physical +5% + Imbuement slot (Life Leech Imbue)

 Royal Draken Mail- Arm 16, Shielding +3 Protection physical +5% No Imbuement possible, so if you do not need Life Leech this is the best physical defence armor

As you are sword User -  Fireborn Giant Armor can be useful too as it is adding + 3 sword (offensive mode)

Legs:

- Exotic legs- new item. Arm. ; protection physical +4%.

Shield:

1st option:  Ornate Shield-  Def: 36, Protection physical +5 and 1 slot Imbuement

2nd. - Prismatic Shield -  Def 37, Shielding +2, Protection physical +4% - No Imbuement available  

Boots:

- Depth Calcei Arm: 3, Speed-5, protection physical +5% 

Void boots 

Regarding the sword- It is depending how you are managing your Imbuements. Both are good, but Emerald Sword has 2 imbu slots- adding critical + extra imbue could be better option

Answer 2

Well, I'm just answering this again because the question was bumped. The old answer is still valid and all the items that were answered before still works. I'll place just the best items for level 180 or less.

 Zaoan Helmet (With Imbuement)  Prismatic Helmet (Without Imbuement)

Prismatic Armor (With Imbuement)   Royal Draken Mail (Without Imbuement)

Exotic Legs (These are hard to find, better to stick to Zaoan Legs until level 185 when you will switch to  Ornate Legs or wait until 225 to get your  Fabulous Legs)

Depth Calcei

Ornate Shield

 Phantasmal Axe (Atk 5+49 Fire) Jungle Flail (Atk 52)   Impaler of the Igniter (Atk 25+26 fire)

Regarding the question about which sword is the best,  Shiny Blade will be better with just one imbuement (probably mana), but with two imbuements (mana+crit or mana+life), you will probably get better results with  Emerald Sword .
