More Kicksin Qs

Ok, so I know this is technically covered in the guide, but I was wondering if anyone's had a lot of experience testing gear and can give me some guiding advice...
For armor, im looking at Lionheart, but then I saw Duress which is similar but less res, less +stats, more def and some CB OW. Anyone got any advice?

Also, azurewrath looks pretty good, but so does fleshripper..and what about something random like gimmershreds that has a lot of elemental damage? anyone got some non-uber expensive RW advice?

Hopefully my last foolish post...I'm sure I've seen it somewhere, but I cant relocate to dbl check.

Does Venom work with kicking attacks?

duress is best cb + ow are a must. if you plan to pvp youll want to use cb + venom, they go very handy together, back in the mid days of ladder my semi equipped kicker who used fleshripper with guillames could almost kill decent paladins in melee. Since kicks are kinda weak solo youll need to have CB + Venom and OW helps.
I also saw a kicker in pub who was extremely strong and she used dtail yup, but her gear was pheonix with 20/20 fire faceted armor and 6x 5/5 fire faceted crystal and a whole bunch of fire stuff and was killin people in one two dtails

So I'll probably max venom... Is it worth my while to socket an Andy Visage with a poison facet? how much do those actually help? And if I need so much CB, should I go with guillaumes? and venom grip for 5% instead of dracs for OW?
