    Buy a companion called stone. It gives you new slot to fill with stuffs like rings enchants etc etc.
    With that amount of ads it s literally the best upgrade you can do

    well if you're aiming to increase your stats, save up for one of the ioun stones. Best investment you can make in my opinion.
    will the stone increase my gs too?

    No but GS isn't everything. Nothing else will give the same performance increase for the AD.

    If you are planning to stay in NWO atleast half a year or even more, you should invest everything into stable Astral Diamonds income aka buy more character slots and make there new characters for praying (11lvl+) and leadership (10lvl+). For example make one character for every class in game, level them to 11lvl and start praying and leadership profession. Buy proper workers and let your life be more brighter and easier with stabile money income. Because money are in virtual world everything. For more info Google is your best friend.

    Companions

    An augment companion (such as an Ioun Stone) won't increase your gear score but it will give you a ton of stats, which will help you be much more effective, especially at that GS level. Plus, you don't want to be running around with a summoned companion in epic dungeons: they draw aggro and die all the time.

    A cheap way to get some GS is to make use of your active companion slots. Check out the wiki and AH for green companions with active bonuses that improve stats you need. Armored Orc Wolf for crit, Frost Mimic for defense, Moonshae Druid for HP/recovery, etc. are available for 50K AD or less. After you get your augment you'll have four active companions slots, and you can use these to get 400 extra GS for less than 200K AD. You probably won't level them up, and eventually you'll probably drop them in favor of companions with better active bonuses that don't raise your GS, but they can be a big help early on. Put those active companion slots to work yo!

    Enchantments

    If you aren't using all rank 5 or rank 6 enchants then you should do that ASAP. Once you get an augment and unlock all the slots you'll want to make sure you have good enchants and runestones on that, as well. Everything up through rank 7 is either affordable or easy to level up with what you find, with just a little patience.

    Jewelry

    If you're into this character for the long haul then leveling up Jewelcrafting will give you access to the best rings and (until your artifact cloak is high level) the best neck pieces.

    Mount

    A purple mount is a must-have for endgame, IMO. If you're going to make a zen purchase then this should be near the top of your list. If you buy one in the zen store it will unlock for all future characters. Even if you love your main and only want to play your main, you'll still want an alt or two so you can unlock their class artifact and use them for Leadership.

    Artifacts

    Get those other two artifact slots working for you. If you want artifacts fast then check the AH. If you want artifacts for free then level up an alt and unlock their class artifact. Dread Ring boons are the fastest way to get into Icewind Dale and unlock the arti. I don't know what's good for a Trapper HR, but the DC and GWF artifacts are popular. Once you get your alt to 60 and unlock their class arti you can also unlock the HR class artifact with your main. Farming Lesser Fey Blessings (in Sharandar) and Lesser Dragon's Hoards (in ToD) is a very good way to get RP for artifacts (not artifact gear, mind you, but artifacts). 12 LFB/LDH (plus marks and wards) will get one artifact to purple.

    Well of Dragons

    Lastly, join the Legit channel and start farming Tiamat. You'll get some RP and some purple gear to sell or salvage (or use, if you're lucky). Dragon Heralds are another easy way to get salvageable purple and the occasional belt to sell.
