(what's the best combo to get imp3/devo2 efficiently?).

If you think that it is possible that the location of the components makes a difference when making gizmos then you will want to place them like this.
If you don't belive it, then it won't hurt to place them like this anyway :P

Lucky 5 (5 silent/fortunate)

@Rowley

Here you suggest Lucky5 instead of Absorb3...is this because of the typeless damage factor, or was it more of a case of using both Abs and Lucky?
...or am I missing something here?

TIA

I'm not sure if Lucky works for Araxxor's cleaves/bombs, so take what I say with a pinch of salt, however...

If the main use is Araxxor, and no Biting is involved, then that frees up a spot. With Crackling being trigger happy, some players may not want to use it, so that frees up yet another slot... And I'm a sucker for Venomblood so:

Lucky 5 (2.5% all damage) + Absorbative2Venomblood (2% damage with a type) is superior to Lucky3Venomblood (1.5% all damage) + Absorbative 3 (3% damage with a type), sure both may equate to 4.5%, however Lucky does work for typeless damage, which could be applicable elsewhere (or even at Araxxor if I'm just being bad)

And if you'd like Crackling, then Absorbative2Venomblood would be better than Lucky3Venomblood if Lucky doesn't work for bombs - but that being said, you take maybe 5 bombs per kill at the very most? I'd still rather have Absorbative tbh, the consistent damage reduction is, well, consistent - far better than a random reduction to 1 imo. Unslain Bosses - Clan

Thanks.

For my setup I get to choose between Abs3 and Lucky5, so I was wondering if I need to swap out Abs3 for Lucky5. I think I will stick with Abs3.

This is my Rax setup, but I run Aftershock instead of Eq, so it puts Biting back in play - and I am not a fan of Crackling at Rax.

...but I am thinking of swapping out CH2/Reflexes for Reflexes/Mobile to help on path3.

The greatest benefit of lucky 5 over abs 3 imo is that you can combo it with another perk without loss of rank.

Both work on most typeless hits. Both work with resonance. Both cannot be depended upon to save you from special boss attacks. And abs 3 gives 0.5% more protection.
But I'll sacrifice 0.5% chance for access to hoarding/mobile/etc.

I don't reserve two slots for both lucky and abs so I don't have a circumstance where I need to nerf one perk to fit venom, in fact I just use a pot for venom cause meh, but given one slot for tank perk I like combo lucky5.

My imp/dev luck is absolutely horrid, but I have 27 zaros comps left so I'll try 3/2 again. I wish sara/band was comboable for 33.
