here is my thought regarding active/passive gear assuming you've got other stuff like nut tools/biners/etc.
Active-
00-3 Metolius ultralight powercams or master cams
.75-3 Black Diamond Camalots
Tricams- pink, red,brown
Passive-
Black diamond Stoppers- 3-13
A few of the BD Microstoppers (not the smallest sizes that are only good for bodyweight)
Some people will talk about needed hexes but when i first started i was informed that this led to the telltale clinking know as "the call of the gumby" They might be awesome but i've never used them nor been in a position where the above stuff was not useful. This includes seconding and leading(this is my first season leading so take the above advice with a grain of skepticism)
Good luck!
Edit: I just saw that you will climb in the gunks, this rack was what i bought at the advice of friends who are long time gunks locals (they are also the ones who explained the "call of the gumby") They also climb with aliens but that issue has been beat to death on this site and i honestly will not buy any since all of the hoopla.
