Question - Conditions: Is it best practice to check if ability/item is ready?

[kharis]

When reviewing other's ini's, ill see some users will add a line like (or similar variants):

DPS#=Innoruuk's Dark Blessing|99|cond#
cond#=!${Me.Song[Mortal Coil].ID} && ${Me.XTarget} >= 2 && ${FindItem[Innoruuk's Dark Blessing].TimerReady} == 0

Is there a benefit to checking if the item / ability is ready as part of the condition statement? I would assume KA would simply skip to the next DPS line if the item wasn't ready.
Possibly improves performance minorly by not even trying to fire the item/ skill?

you don't need to with kiss, it will check if something is ready before using it

With what @Sic said, using ability not ready is a way to condition for “use after the last ability”. You can also use ability ready, to condition for two abilities being ready to use and executed at the same time.
