Hey guys, I was wondering what would be the most effective type of armor/weapons for running JK. Thanks!

If I were to gear up for T3
If I were to gear up for T3 in general, what stats should be I looking for in my equipment? I currently have the wolver cap and armor, a cutter, autogun, and bristling buckler.

You want to do shadow damage.
You want to do shadow damage. Lots of shadow damage. On top of that it is useful to have some sort of elemental damage output for the constructs you encounter as well. Shadow is more important though.
Defend against normal most importantly. Piercing and/or Elemental are an ok second option as well. You're mostly being dealt normal damage though so that's most important.
In all honesty, you don't need to over think JK. As long as you play smart and safe you will make it through just fine, regardless of what you use! Well, except for piercing weapons. Those are no-nos.
There was an old Ultimate Equipment for JK previously, pretty lots of suggestions.

The problem with gearing up specifically for Jelly King is that it is overkill. If one instead gears up to be well equipped for T3 then their choices would be more than sufficient for the Jelly King.
But since you are asking for effective gear, I'd go with...
Skolver Cap UV Normal Max
Vog Cub Coat UV Piercing Max
Swiftstrike UV Piercing Max
DVS with UV Slime Very High
Acheron with UV Slime Very High
Ash of Agni UV CTR Very High
That'll give you a DVS with Slime Max/Ultra Speed for the Jelly King itself. The Acheron and Ash are for all the levels leading up to the King. DVS works pretty well on Gun Puppies and Constructs. Really though, you can switch in a DA UV Construct Very High just for them.
