Question - Kissassist and Spell Memorization

[drwhomphd]

I have a quick clarifying question about KA's handling of the [DPS] and [Buffs] section. So, as I understand it, by default you can only memorize 8 spells (more with future AAs), however, I can have considerably more in my Spellbook. If I list a buff or DPS spell and it is not one of my 8-13 memorized spells, does Kissassist automatically memorize it before casting by default or is that only possible if I set up the gems section of the kissassist ini?

When I see folks with really long DPS or Buff sections in their .ini files are those just AA's or other abilities that aren't memorized?

As I just started really playing, and I stopped prior to AA's being a thing, I'm not familiar with what all they can do besides passive buffs.

Thanks for any information!

they would try and mem the spell to cast it if it was a buff or what not --- you definitely don't want to have regular dps spells in your dps that are not memmed as it might try and memorize them during combat which would be suck or end up not having a spell you want memorized etc.
I normally set up my stuff so i have all the spells i want up all the time - then any other long buffs i don't keep memorized and let the misc spell gem swap that in and out for buffing

Yeah later you do get AA versions of a lot of your basic buffing stuff. Including a self buff that refreshes 1-5 self-only buffs depending on your class.

KA can also swap out two slots as it does buffing. MiscGem slot is for fast buffs and MiscGemLW slot can be for stuff that stays grey'd out awhile before it is available to cast (longer refresh.) You can use MiscGemRemem=1 to have KA put a DPS spell back in the MiscGem slot too.

Awesome! Thanks for the clarification! I appreciate the clarification I make sure my mental model of how KissAssist works is how it actually works. *grin*
