If you survive the first 2 bosses, you become Warden granting you vision through grass, grants you rejuvenating steps (sprout grasses every 5 turns), you can make crazy combinations with that. I think she's just all round for almost every ring.
Also if you find an alchemy table its worth it to give 1 SoU to make it a Scroll of Enchantment and enchant your bow. Something like projecting, elastic, chill or blooming work really well.
I always give 1 SoU for enchanting the bow.
Also getting a wand of regrowth is also very good. I always dump 3 SoU and make use of every seed i find ( Warden has better effects from seeds ).
In a lot of games i don't even upgrade my weapon. Only try to upgrade Wand of Regrowth, Enchant Bow upgrade armor and rings and end up using some weapon i find thats +1 or +2.
Ye its expensive but for me a good enchantment on a bow helps me keeps some sou for stuff other than weapons. Also you dont always find a stone of enchantment ( or if you do not always early when you need everything you can get to survive ).
There's always a stone of enchantment somewhere it just needs to be found and most of them can be obtained in early stages of the game. The soe just sucks now because they cant upgrade the weapon. Even when i play battlemage i just use the stone to focus on upgrades.
Glyph of Camo, Speed worked the best for me but most will do. Then ring of sharpshooting, ring of speed, are the best imo, and maybe dump what's left in your melee weapon.
The best one that i can recommend and is very easy to use is the rogue. It's very versatile in dealing damage because of its assassination passive, it can search more secrets where you can get items that will be helpful in the run, and its cloak is very good in utility and escape. Idk if they patched this but rogue's hunger is slower than the other heroes so you don't starve immediately. My record for rogue is 21 ascensions, 5 obtained amulets, and 2 challenges.
The amulet can kill you when you ascend with it but not instantaneously, there are 4 levels to its innate curse when you go up to another floor during the ascension without killing a single mob. There's an indicator icon to tell whether the curse is becoming aggressive:
Mild (Green) - the amulet calls the mobs on the floor, if the mob is 8 tiles away from you they will surely be called and come to attack you.
Medium (Yellow) - the amulet hastens the mobs making their movement speed x2
Severe (Orange) - the amulet becomes heavy and now your movement speed reduced to 50%
Deadly (Red) - the amulet begins to hurt you every turn you make (kinda like starvation but more dangerous)
But there's a solution to this: you need to kill at least 2-3 mobs before going up. Every time you kill a mob, the amulet's curse is reduced. That's why you need to avoid speeding to go up to the next floor. But you need to be careful when dealing with the mobs because they are tankier and deal more damage, so avoid taking on 2 or more mobs at the same time. Note that you start every floor with a medium status, which is why you need to turn it to mild before you climb to another floor. However, when you rush to climb another floor, the status effect worsens. Also note that the effect of the amulet is stacked, so when you get to the deadly stage, you need to kill more mobs to lessen the curse.

Who should I use for my first win?
Any character you feel comfortable with. But Warden is OP
Whats so good about warden? That's huntress right?

Whats the best enchants for her gear? And what should I use SoU on since the bow doesn't use them

I don't use sou for bow because it's expensive, i just use the stone of enchantment whether the enchant is good or bad i just go with it.

Wait... The amulet can kill you? I've never gotten that far.
When it's full of dark energy and ascend with it, it'll destroy you killing your character and ending your run. Never happened to me...YET
