What i have currently:
Drone dx
Dye rotor
ninja 68 4500
vforce profiler
proto fight pod pack

I recently discovered a reball field near my house. (10 minutes away), so a pinokio sounds like a good hopper for that. Also wondering how long ANSgear's 90$ pinokio will last.

What i may need in the future (in order of importance):
Speed feed
barrel kit
tank cover
pants
jersey
trigger, maybe

Is there anything else that will help me out?? please say the item and its importance. I think the speed feed is a must

In this order.

You need
Pants
Tank Cover
Speed Feed
Jersey
Arm and knee pads.

Thats it other than that you have everything you NEED to play. This other stuff just adds to the cool factor. I say go play and just spend the money on paint.

What is the point of the tank cover? I see most pros using tape.

It protects your tank. On aluminum tanks or more commonly called, "steelies" , it doesn't matter how many scratches or nicks you get on it if it passes the hydro test it's fine. But with a carbon fiber tank if you get a big nick chances are that the tank will become no good so if you bang it off a rock or something and get a big nick in it then you have to throw it out, tank covers help prevent that. I'm not sure about the latter part of your question.

Not exactly... The "glossy" part is just a coating, as long as the the actual carbon fiber is fine, the tank is safe.

Elbow pads
Pants
Knee pads
Tank cover
Speedfeed
Jersey
Trigger (only if you really can't adjust yours to be walkable)
Barrel Kit (stock barrel is fine, and you need bigger bores for reballs I think)

Yes, their is a coating on the tank but even that is very thin. The reason why I said a big nick is because a tiny one won't matter but a big one could. And that would potentially cause the threads to show which would make the tank no good.
