Question - Burn on all named except...these ones!

Hi there!

Been trying to figure this out but to no avail. I have a lot of my dps and burns in conditions so I've always had burnallnamed on to make sure they function as intended.

Problem is with cov missions with so many steps and the need to save burns for specific moments makes this a no-go as my caster team just goes oom if they burn too early.

Is there a was I could add in some additional things to my conditions where they only trigger on named EXCEPT ones i list? Or alternatively only if they are a specific name?

Really stumped!
 
There's one way i can think of of manually overcoming that.
  1. Use EBCS and join all your chars. You can watch SiC's video on keys setup. I'm not an expert but i think it's something like /bca /bcc /burn ... SiC has that step by step on his video.
If you're using CWTN plug-ins or KissAssist just make you're you've disabled burnalways
 
I would turn off burn named and use the following macro

/bcga //burn
/noparse /bcaa //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} burnnow

This is what I use to burn in missions, in addition a switchwithma macro

/noparse /bcg //docommand /${Me.Class.ShortName} switchwithma on

and a force switch

/bcga //target id ${Target.ID}
/bcga //switchnow

Thanks for the replies. From my understanding, if I turn off burnallnamed however, won't that mess with a bunch of things? For example in sic's cov bard KA ini where there are a lot of conditionals that seem to be tied to it being a named etc?

For kissassist if burn text is set to = Burn
Would the correct burn key be like this for KA? /bcga //echo Burn

Nice!
 
If you want it to be handled automatically by kiss and minimize controlling it manually in game, you can also set conditions for specific named or when specific named reach a certain amount of HP, etc.

For example, my Kissassist mage is setup so it will only burn Icebound Avatar of War in the 2nd phase less than 60% hp, and it is also set ignore certain named in the CoV missions so that burns are saved until the last part. It is also set to burn if there are more than 4 mobs. You can keep adding on to this as well and I believe it should work no matter how complicated it gets:

INI:
Cond1=${Target.Named} && ${Cond[2]} && ${Cond[4]} && ${Cond[5]} && ${Cond[6]} && ${Cond[7]} && ${Cond[8]} && ${Cond[9]}  || ${Target.Named} &&  ${Cond[3]})  && ${Cond[4]} && ${Cond[5]} && ${Cond[6]} && ${Cond[7]} && ${Cond[8]} && ${Cond[9]} || ${Cond[10]}
Cond2=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Icebound Avatar of War]}
Cond3=${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Icebound Avatar of War]} && ${Target.PctHPs} < 60
Cond4=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Cargalia]}
Cond5=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Honvar]}
Cond6=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Sivar]}
Cond7=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Melalafen]}
Cond8=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Charayan the Crusader]}
Cond9=!${Target.DisplayName.Equal[Susarrak the Crusader]}
Cond10=${Me.XTarget} > 4
 
Thanks for all the replies and possible ways forward. I really like it being "dynamic" so I can turn it on / off at my leisure.

If I understand the new burn command correctly, I can /burn off to disable burn even though I have BurnAllNamed=1 in my ini file. Is that correct? And then can turn it on with /burn on so that the upcoming named would be burned.

So in missions basically I could start with /burn off and then just later call for /burn on when I feel like it's appropriate? That's super duper great in that case!
