Get your shields and armor to level 5 immediately. Eventually you'll want to get you Electronics and Engineering up but level 3 is adequate for most everything ADV which is good enough.
Plates are going to make you a bit slower so it is honestly up to your own play style.
If you are hit and run combat medic just picking up randoms, you want plates without a speed penalty and a few shield extenders to help with that get away.
If you are with team always at ready and in the firefight with them, you want the enhanced/complex plates to get the most eHP for your buck. Also, consider a reactive plate if you only have 2 slots available. If you have 3, consider adding an armor repper. Those things do more than you think to turn a battle and get you back to your job with your team.
For EQ, I actually run the bpo needle but that's because my fits are all adv and its starting to get costly with all these sneaky scouts. I have a whole squad to clear rooms so I can pick up people. If you're running solo, you're likely to be that guy that picks up someone who will die immediately with a basic or militia injector. However, if you got good gun game and know how to really clear a room solo, you can make that decision for yourself.
As far as Rep tools go, I can preach all day about how the BDR-8 tool is the best tool out there. I don't care how much people rave about the Core Focused Tool. I love it but its insanely expensive and a true risk to run due to the limited range, even with proto min logi skills, its range is fairly limited. That means your body is often going to get clipped by shots more often than you'd like. You'll have to abandon your team a few times just to recover yourself.
Whereas the BDR-8 has phenomenal range, so even those blueberries that had to duck into cover across from me, I can usually reach from the safety of my own cover and get them back in the fight. It is my preferred rep tool of any available in pubs.
