Which "Curios" perks do you find to be the most efficient? Pick class as well.
+ Revive Speed (Ally)
+ Health
+ Experience
+ Toughness
+ Stamina Regeneration
+ Sprint Cost Reduction
+ Sprint Efficiency
+ Block Efficiency
+ Corruption Resistance
+ Corruption Resistance (Grimoires)
+ Combat Ability Regeneration
+ Ordo Dockets (Mission Rewards)
+ Toughness Damage Reduction - (Datamined, but does not spawn as far as I can tell?)
+ Toughness Regeneration Speed
+ Chance of Curio as Mission Reward (Instead of Weapon)
+ Damage Resistance (Bombers)
+ Damage Resistance (Gunners)
+ Damage Resistance (Mutants)
+ Damage Resistance (Pox Hounds)
+ Damage Resistance (Snipers)
+ Damage Resistance (Tox Flamers)

Personally I always go for "Toughness Regeneration Speed" on every class. The rest are harder to choose from. Damage Resistance (Gunners) should be decent but I am unsure what enemies actually count for this as the "Shotgunner" does not seem to count for this?
I guess its vs Reaper and the other 2 fast shooting Elites?

Also "Toughness Regeneration Speed" seems a bit bugged and has an abyssmal low spawn for "20%" perk. Not sure it can even spawn anymore. Seen it once in the beta.

As Psyker, i use 3 times the 15% sniper resistance. On Damnation, a hit can ruin your day. So i like to be protected.

Its for sure not a bad pick as it scales very well vs the damage. A sniper hit can delete you. I am starting to read how to dodge snipers better lately though so I don't pick it anymore. It used to be a guaranteed pick for sure before, and I still consider it very viable.

damage resistance vs snipers is a good one.
as its probably the only damage resistance worth getting (gunners is a ok second choice but i put that on a lower priority unless you are knife zealot as those gunners annoy me alot)

toughness regen speed is probably the best, through i havent gotten a full set of 3 yet
if it works as people say (reduce delay on toughness regen + speed up toughness regen) it can really help with chip damage and quickly put you back into good fighting condition

other than that i dont have much preference for the 3rd perk, maybe health/toughness depending on what your curio main stat is
or revive speed

you silly punys. block efficiency all the way with slab shield +3 stamina across the board and stamina regen , and if the stars align sprint efficiency
I only play Psyker and on Heresy/Damnation. At the moment I don't have what I set as my goal(because I don't yet get 25% hp curios)but I'm aiming for:

Blessings:

2 x 25% hp
+1 Wound

Perks:
3 x 5% HP
2 x 20% Sniper Resistance
2 x 20% Bomber Resistance
2 x 12% Stamina Regeneration

Sniper and bomber resist.

Sniper damage resistance is unneeded if you know how to dodge a second before the shot. The only damage resistance should ever take is gunner as everything else can be dodged or avoided.

Toughness regen is great on veterans because it seems to speed up the "at arm's length" feat in addition to normal coherence toughness regen.

I am not entirely sure it is as effective on other characters, though. I wouldn't take it on an ogryn, for example.

My setup right now (only using purples)

2x 17% toughness
1x wound

perks:
3x 5% toughness
3x 20% toughness regen rate

This gives me 298 toughness which recovers at 5% per second (14.9/s) multiplied by 60% increase = 23.84 toughness recovered per second. It is visually impressive how fast my toughness recovers with +60% stacked.

Resist snipers, resist gunners and corruption resist

HP.... all by builds max out HP, it will not only stop you from dying normally, it protects you from Grim corruption (because it takes of a set amount of HP not a percentage) AND maxes out the time you can hold out to be saved when jumped.

For example my Ogren almost have 450HP and even when we have both Grims i have around 350HP.

I play damnation and you will get hit eventually. Sniper resist is a huge drop in damage taken.

Stamina curiosa is currently broken. +2 and +3 only adds +1.
As for block efficiency, been thinking about it. Is it good?

Wait are you telling me you found three curiosa with 3x 5% toughness and 3x 20% toughness regen rate?? That's insane.
