Question - Recommendations for a raiding BST?

[Adeity]

Hello all,

I have recently begun using Very Vanilla for boxing my BST and BRD, and found it to be extremely useful - what I have surprisingly enjoyed is the quality of life improvements it offers when playing 1 character during raids (BST), for example the auto navigation, ability to auto move to rear of a target and DPS meter.

Further to this, I was wondering if there are any other suggestions from the veterans amongst you as to what else should/can be used to streamline the raiding experience, if anything?

Kind regards,

Do you guys use the same burn hotkey or notification to burn?

If so, you could setup events to automatically fire off your burn sequences when someone calls them out from the guild/raid.

The triggering of spells/abilities/actions in response to commands from the raid leader, ie, burns - defo one to look at - thanks!

Not just commands from the RL ... also could be triggered when others drop their burn buffs on you. For example, if rangers are saving auspice for a big burn you could make that the trigger ... when auspice hits your burn fires. You can also setup a series of burns ... for example, it could tell if your primary burn is down and then fire off secondary burns.

Sky is the limit, really. You could also have it automatically react to certain emotes... all kinds of shit.

The only thing I never really understood, though, is when people wanted kiss to play their toon during raids ... like ... more than just quality of life boosts. They wanted kiss to play their toon while they walked away and did other stuff. I don’t recommend that, if you care about your toon and/or guild mates.

Ah I follow, that's great!

Agreed, and not something I had contemplated doing!
