You can purchase Hive Queen Reward Selection Chests from the market place (F5). The lowest priced are being sold for as little as 7 gold, so it should be affordable even for new players. Raid weapons do cost slightly more to upgrade, but you'll do more damage in the meantime. All of my characters are using at least Aransu 3.
Since you already know about the bracelet, the other thing you should be working on is your soul shield set and getting a legendary mystic and soul badge. The badges can be purchased from Dragon Express on the second tab for martial tokens. You can obtain these by doing Koldrak, 7th floor of Mushin's tower, and the Moon Refuge dailies. There are multiple ways to farm for Hive Queen soulshields, either by doing Moon Refuge and buying from the vendor there, or using martial tokens from Dragon Express.
