Black Widow Super Spider Venom Drops

[Asmodan]

I killed 4 Black Widows in my current game and none of them droped Super Spider Venom, i get only 1 Black Widow Fang. I also have Rascal Rogue and Sticky Fingers Trinket equipped, but no items from that. Are the droprates that low? This is super annoying.

It's a pretty low drop rate, but:
* Widowlings also drop Super Spider Venom (and aren't as scary)
* Don't forget to use Dissection Expert when you harvest their remains - it helps.
* And, if you have the Raw Science to spare, there is always the DeDup.R.

Make a stuffed black widow asap. It buffs the drop rates when you activate it so it's very worth it. Also as stated above, dissection expert mutation increases loot luck.

Thx. I did not fight the Wasps yet, so i do not have the Dissection Mutation. I think will first get the chip from the Wasps then and make a stuffed Black Widow.

Also if you're confident in your abilities to kill one, you can summon 1 black widow in a raid with a single black widow fang. From my experience, the raid widow ALWAYS dropped at least 1 fang, so I could do it endlessly. It's still a rare drop from them (Rarer than normal widows in fact) but you don't have to wait 7 in-game days to fight it again.
