Just have to be patient, my friend. The game can be tough in places, especially the first time through.

You don't want it to be a breeze, do you? You want the challenge!

OK. Here's what you do: Collect Thorny Carapaces, Jungle Troll Tusks, Ebon Spider Legs and Stormy Eyes and Tangled Seeds. These are for the collectors in the jungle who will give you BETTER armor than anything you can buy at this point, though without the energy bonus of the Gladiator's armor. For FREE!!

There are collectors in and around Druid's Overlook, Ventari's Refuge, and then Southwest of Ventari's Refuge, where you complete the one quest for the large Druid. (It starts out Blood and Smoke but morphs into another quest.)

When you see the green triangles on your mini-map when outside... it's probably a collector! Remember to hold down ALT key to see, if they are in range. I always visit nearby collectors just to see what they have. They also lots of times offer better weapons than things you find as well.

Getting a clean max damage hammer shouldnt be too hard, and if you are willing to not have THE best you can get some decent mods without giving away all your gold. Theres a mod guideline in the trade-> price check forums. But the armour should be your first priority, to keep you alive, as your hammer should be good enough

My Glad armor is the best I can get, 55 armor 20+ armor +1 enegery I belive, its the same as the other one you can make but costs more and has the +1 engery. So I made it in Lion.

Sounds good... however, the jungle collectors will give you armor level 71, again without the energy bonus of Gladiator's. One collector for each piece.

Takes some time, but it's fun and most of the collectors are in easy reach.
