Starting with the Prophet is never a bad option. It gives you cooldown and some basic protection aswell as an awesome passive.
After that u can decide if u need more Physical/Magical protection by either choosing Breastplate of Talisman.

Stone of binding also very nice for the passive
Spirit robe for the anti- hard CC
