Idea - Updates to PAL and BST class configs

[ghuff07]

I made small edits to the PAL and BST class configs that I wanted to share. If these were intentionally left out, then I apologize in advance.

PAL
Added the lower level Aegolism spells (Courage, etc)
Added Bash and Disarm abilities to the Tank DPS and DPS routines

BST
Added Slam to the Weave routine

After realizing Kick, Round Kick, and Slam share the same cooldown I switched the order of the abilities in the Weaves section of this version:

1. Round Kick (if Feral Swipe)
2. Slam (if race with Slam)
3. Kick (if no Feral Swipe)

No other changes.

Slam does 1 point of damage if you don't have the Bash skill, correct? Why would you use it over a kick?

I was thinking to prioritize the stun from Slam over the stun-less Kick. Not so much about the damage. This is on a class that doesn't get Bash and (I think) the Kick will never stun. If this is wrong, then Slam could probably be removed from this config because it won't have a use below Kick in the priority.

Fair enough, not a change I'm really interested in making. Looks like Derple added the PAL spells and abilities, however, cheers for that.

Also want to call attention to the fact that if you are using these as custom configs, you do not have the Full Config flag set and certain changes (example, if you removed a spell from a table) may not apply the way you wish them to.

You can either use the "create custom config" button (if you don't already have a file of that name in the folder) or just insert the flag yourself, I'll give an example here:
local _ClassConfig = {
_version = "1.2",
_author = "Algar (based on AlgarSK based on 1.0 Derple)",
['FullConfig'] = true,
['ModeChecks'] = {
IsTanking = function() return RGMercUtils.IsModeActive("Tank") end,
... etc, etc

You may also wish to change the version or author to easily identify that it is properly loaded, but it should also show the custom flag after that so this isn't strictly necessary.

Have a good one!

That's a good suggestion on maintaining my own custom config instead. The BST config in my original post above was merged in, but if you guys think Slam for a BST is more of a personal choice/custom config, then I would recommend reverting the file back or removing the added Slam lines under the Weaves section. Sorry for adding confusion.

No worries, already done. I appreciate anyone taking the time to fiddle with this stuff, do keep us in the loop if you see anything else!
