So I finally got my Vog Set, with Shivermist Buster, Leviathan Blade, Silversix, Faust, all 2* Snarb Stuff except Dark Thorn Shield, Blast Bomb, Royal Jelly Set (just for kicks, and they both have UVs, lol), UV'd Cobalt Set, normal Wolver Set (in case I decide to go for Skolver), Great Defender, and Grey Owlite Shield.

I kind of want to set up a small loadout for all bosses so I can farm them, but I also kind of want to get a DA/Sudaruska or some other overpowered weapon. I'm not sure what I should go for next. AP? Skolver Set? Snarbolax Set? Divine Avenger? Gran Faust? Crest of Almire?
not sure what do now (I haven't played Lockdown either, so not really going for PvP sets)

Sudaruska is definitely not

Sudaruska is definitely not OP. haha It's very UP to be honest.
Get a DA and a BTB. Or save your pennies for shadow keys/gear.

I've seen 7 Love Puppies. Get used to them not dropping anything.

Aight, DA and BTB.
Should I push my luck and try to find some Shadow Lair Recipes?

For bosses you should add

For bosses you should add fang of vog and blitz needle, to complete you shields get a piercing one and a shadow one, for shadow bosses get ash of agni and maybe venom veiler too, cant think of more stuff

I heard the Ash of Agni was pitiful compared to the Shivermist Buster.
Edit: Royal Jelly Shield resists Piercing.

There are no "shadow lair

There are no "shadow lair recipes," the Sanctuary has a special alchemy machine that already has the recipes in it like Krogomo's machine. Ash of Agni and Shivermist are two different bombs; one is for damage over time and the other is for crowd control. Depends on your situation.
Remember that you can't use both at the same time, one cancels out the other; however, there ARE status types that can simultaneous work on an enemy.

Ash is aimed for Royal Jelly.

Also, I honestly wouldn't recommend getting different loadouts for different bosses, it's really not needed at all.
I've done all of them solo (with the exception of Vana) with the same set of full Vog, Volcanic Plate Shield, DA, Faust, Dark Thorn Blade, Gig Pulsar. Having a separate loadout for each boss is a lot of money wasted in my opinion.

@Skaiwalka

Not a completely different loadout for each boss.
I only have two weapon slots and CBA to buy extras.

Would you recommend Crest of Almire or VPS?

Ah, but do you really want to

Ah, but do you really want to spend the time and CE to dive into the Shadow Lair (probably multiple times) to get a new outfit?

Mikalmirkas

Not now, I've got a good

Not now, I've got a good chunk of CE to blow on new stuff though.
Isn't it best if I do it now while Shadow Keys are purchasable?

Anyway, I might just get the Gran Faust, Dark Thorn Blade (maybe even the bomb if I feel like having the piercing option), BTS, and Supernova/Polaris/Gig Pulsar/DA.
