Stage one.
Good for starting out. though the 7 hit is going to suck. there are worse gear options at the moment. Work for a Widowmaker, save gil. Get your af3+1ed at least. Kill Sippoy for an orb. Kill the wyvern for a gorget and get a ravager's earring. Also make brutal a priority. Atheling can be easy to get if a person is spamming Ortherus. If they are generous like me they might give you the mantle.
Stage two.
Work on a Zelus, keep grim or get +1 if you can. Work on +2ing your AF3. You still might need the body so hang onto it and +2 it. Maybe go for a Veloce Zuchetto from Sippoy or just buy the AH haste hat. Go for a full set of WAR+2/Accessories. They all come in handy. Goading Belt is yummy.
Rancor Collar may or may not pull ahead here.
Final Stage?
The best non empy 6 hit IMO (Without Armada Hauberk Auged). If acc is capped granted. if you are having acc issues switch to your +2 body. Substitute Lace for Maschu+3 if you aren't going for Ukon.(Ukon needs a whole different build)
For Weaponskills do the following
Perle Head->Varangian Helm->+1 Head(For multihits)->Twilight->+2 head(This I use for everything heh)
Neck- Ravager's=>WSGorget/Rancor Collar
Earrings-Brutal/Ravager's for me.-> Brutal/TP Bonus Moonshade seems good too.
Body- Grim(+1)/Zahak's get both. Both got cheaper then they used to be.
Hands- Perle Moufles-> WAR+2= Heafoc Mittens(Your call on which to use)
Rings- Rajas/Vulcan's. Then upgrade to Pyrosoul.
Back- Atheling All the way.
Waist-Ele belt/Anguinus belt
Legs- Something Something STR Panties->+1 Pants->+2 Pants->Ideal Bellicus Cuisses
Feet- Perle->Heca->Jingang->+2 Feet
