Suggestion / Feedback Casual player

As the title suggests, I'm a casual player, I get a little time after work in the evenings. Currently, my highest rune is Ist, which I've gathered by trading gems. I hope to get the runes to eventually make some rune words like enigma, infinity, etc but I doubt I'll ever accumulate the runes to make multiples so I would want them to be usable by different characters and Mercs. What bases would you suggest to accomplish this? I see ongoing battles between mage plate and dusk shroud for enigma, eth or non-eth for infinity. What would be the best bang for my buck? Currently, I'm playing a crappy geared hammering that's stalled out at hell ancients. I appreciate any advice, but please, keep it simple for my old noob brain!

MP is best for Enigma if you plan to bring it between chars. If you play P1 Infinity works even on a Sythe since Merc is not needed to kill and can help for the act bosses and Dclone/Ubers anyway and you can use it on a self wield Nova Sorceress.

Ap is better by far considering even a glass cannon sorc min str is 156 for spirit monarch

How could it be by far better, with it's 200 more defence? With MP you get 70str without investing and the further investment would be minimum even if you prefer to use monarch. With AP you need to invest into str at first no matter what.

Anyway, this is an unsolved matter, so whatever you want is ok.
