Note that when using phoenix feather of any sort, you will need to take care to not get acidic substances spilled on your equipment. PF breaks very easily on contact with dark frog blood, slimes or even vomit.
Always look to have equipment that boosts your stats, with the exception of armor of great health. More info on why in the section on Danger Level. For boots, agility is preferred. For gauntlets, get the stat you've got less of.
