Yeah, the wiki is really for mains that can just buy whatever gear they need. As a ironman, you really just have to use the best gear you've got and go with that. In the beginning of everything you're gonna get really short trips, but that is the ironman life. Just know that whatever "minimum gear" they got recommended, you can properly do it with worse gear.
For specifics like dag prime, you should just safe spot it with a ibans staff. It's easy enough, the worst part is getting to the safe spot. You can pm me if you want any help
