New items on the horizon:
The new items will come in two tiers to start with, normal and Greater items.
The normal items will have +2 enhancements, the Greater will have +3.
Each set will contain the following items:
Helm (Deflect AC + skills)
Gloves (Dex or Wis bonus + skills)
Cloak (Con or Cha bonus + skills)
Boots (Dodge AC + skills)
Belt (Str or Int bonus + skills)
Ring x 2 (+1 Regen + skills) (tier 3 is +1 regen,+1 save)
Amulet (Natural AC + skills)
Armor (Armor AC + skills)
Shield (Shield AC + skills)
So essentially, 10 items per set.
The following sets will be introduced:
The attribute bonus is applied based on the item type above.
Alchemist: (Wis, Con, Int) Craft Alchemy,Heal
Alert: (Wis, Con, Int) Listen, Spot
Blacksmith: (Dex, Con, Str) Craft Armor, Craft Weapon

There will also be special "skill" sets that will sacrifice the attribute or AC bonus to give additional skill boosts.
Fluent: Diplomacy, Bluff, Lore, Perform, Taunt, Intimidate
Stalker: Spot, Listen, Move Silent, Hide, Search, Survival
Tomb Raider: Open Lock, Disable Device, Move Silent, Hide, Search, Lore
Here are some example items:
