I feel like this must have been asked before, but I honestly gave Search a shot and couldn't come up with someone in gear comparable to mine. I'm kind of in a unique situation such that I can not raid due the fact that my computer is a complete piece of junk (I get an average of 10-20 FPS while playing and this drops down to under 5 FPS anytime I try to set foot into a raid setting... and yes, this is with EVERY graphics options set to their MINIMUM.), but I still enjoy gearing up. I don't want that to give you the impression that I'm not serious about playing; I am fiercely dedicated to my Dungeon runs and healing is by far my favorite part of this game (as you can see by my only playing Healing-capable classes :P). I want to do what I can to be the best geared and most capable I can be, under my circumstances.
With that said, I would like some advice on the first few pieces of Frost Emblem gear that I should snatch. I've already grabbed the back (I had heard that it was quite possibly the best piece to grab first; hope I didn't make a mistake), but am currently sitting at 46 emblems and was wondering what I should grab when I get enough? I'm currently eyeing the mail belt (Waistband of Despair) or the crafted boots (Earthsoul Boots) as my boots are pretty pathetic. The saronite shouldn't be a problem as I have a good 5K+ g that I could blow on it, I just didn't know if that would be the best usage of my emblems (as I'd buy a couple saronites using emblems)? Are there any other suggestions?

I'm currently able to run all dungeon content easily, with possibly (self-proclaimed) too much mana regen. I very rarely dip below 15K mana and, as such, have been attempting to boost my haste as much as possible (as you can see by my gemming exclusively for it). I think I've made the best gem choices that I could in order to keep my meta active and grab the most beneficial socket bonuses.
Not trying to undermine the effectiveness of the FAQ as I have read it SEVERAL times (if you haven't, please do, it's great!) as well as EJ's FAQ and BiS list but if you see ANYTHING (possible easy upgrades that don't require raiding, bad enchants/gems/etc), I'd be very grateful to have you point it out to me. I know I've made some odd gear choices in the past, which I'm working hard to remedy, so please don't think I'm a complete idiot (just a little one ).
Thanks in advance, all!
EDIT: As a heads up, I will be switching my head and shoulder enchants to the +crit counterparts on my next log-in.
