Hi Davin, it's best to mix and match since each eyepiece set has it's stronger and weaker performers, depending on focal length, the scope being used and observer preferences. If you could tell us what your two or three most used focal lengths are you'll get more useful recommendations.

Off the top of my head:
Pentax XF8.5mm
Hyperion/Stratus 13mm
A used 20mm or 22mm Nagler

If you need anything lower power than the nagler to use as a finder, the Andrews 30mm 2" 80 degree Ultra-wide is $99 and functions well as a finder, even though the outer half of the field is very poor.
