I'm wondering which tech you think is better. I've been playing with Set a lot against the computer to get better with him but I go back and forth between Anubis and Ptah. I like to use a lot of spearman as my main unit along with two other unit types to counter my opponent. Serpent Spear or Leather Frame Shield?

shield if they use archers a lot, spear if you wanna kill faster (not like u kill fast enough with 100 spears...)

I prefer the frame shield for raiding. Serpent spear is good in combination with Horus's techs, in fact you can get pretty decent stats maybe even eguivalent to a hoplite.

yeah Ptah seems to be a better choice in most cases because he is benefits both economy and military. The Shaduf improvement makes farms like 30% cheaper which turns out to be 47 gold. Also he has three techs that benefit each of your barracks units which is helpful if doing some kind of egyptian rush.

You should go ptah allt he time because he has all those attributes the anubis has too. The leather frame shield promotes raiding because spearmen have higher pierce armor.
Spearmen train fast and are cheap so they do just fine against equal numbers of cavalry. serpent spear is a small upgrade so really you should go anubis for a fast heroic to defend against raiders with his serpent god power.
