I have looked at a post about what is expected of a pathfinder to be able to do, as in having means to over come swarms, flying, darkness ect.
The question I have as I am going to applying gm credit to this character I will go from level 2 to level 4 and I need suggestions as to what to get for gear. I will have 15 Fame, 9 PP and about 6000GP to work with.
I think I should be grabbing a Magic weapon, cloak or resistance and magic armor?
So a +1 Rapier,(2320GP), +1 Darkwood Cloth Studded Leather(1770gp), +1 Cloak of Resistance (1000GP), for a total of 5090 spent with only 910GP left.
Are these wise purchases? Is leaving my self that low in GP a good idea. This is my first PFS character so I am not sure what priority I should have on gear.
Should I perhaps instead invest in a couple oils of magic weapon in stead of the +1 Rapier?
Thanks in advance for the advice.

The +1 rapier is a solid investment. You can over time upgrade it's enhancement bonus, possibly adding magic effects to it too. And it always gives the enhancement bonus and ability to bypass /magic DR. Unlike the oils of magic weapon, which need to be applied and are temporary.
Magic armor is also generally a good solid purchases. Do you already have a means to see in the dark? Can you effectively deal with swarms already? Do you have a ranged option for when melee is out of the question? Do you have rope of some kind, and maybe a grappling hook? (I love the flight grapple for that) While it often isn't needed, a water skien and a few days of trail rations wouldn't be amiss either.

My character's sheet is listed on this alias Henric Carnes.
What I think I will do is buy Masterwork Darkleaf Studded Leather, a Masterwork Darkwood Buckler, a couple of magic weapon oils so I can apply it to either melee or ranged weapon and the a potion of fly or what not.

If you're going that route you can probably hold off on the +1 rapier long enough to afford the adamantine one. For arogue the +1 from mw is the big bonus, the +1 damage is meh.
