What item/armor/weapon synergies have you found so far?

[Climhazzard]

Basically as the title says, even early in the game I've found plenty of interesting items that should synergize with various builds, and I'm interested in knowing what other people have found so far.

 

I'll start off.  There's an amulet you can get fairly early, I can't remember the name atm but I'll edit it back in later.  It gives you damage resistance when your health gets low which ought to be pretty useful for humans, barbarians, and streetfighters.  I haven't tested it to much yet to see how useful it really is.

 

There's a gladiator sword you can get early on that adds additional damage if you're using a shield.  Besides being a nice pick for tanks maybe it'll prove useful to riposte rogues.
