Depends on the amount of time available and if it looks like it's going to be wet for the day, or dry up. If the track is clearly drying I'll just change the tyres. Anyway in order of priority I change (for 2wd on astro):

Tyres (to BB Green).

Slipper (back it off).

Weight distribution (more weight on the rear for more traction out of the corners).

Springs (usually go one softer all round for more overall grip, plus makes it easier to drive).

In theory you'd also want to go thinner on the oil to go with the softer springs, but I can never be bothered with that... a spare set of shocks built up for the wet would be handy.
