Affliction Priorities
---------------------
For the advanced user, we offer the ability for you to change the priority order for curing afflictions. While the default priorities are a good base, they may be less efficient against certain classes than a custom set of priorities.
The higher an affliction is on the list, the greater its priority, i.e. priority 1 is the greatest priority. First Aid will not attempt to cure any affliction it is unable to (e.g. lack of available herbs) and will attempt to cure the first affliction it can.
Setting an affliction to priority 26 will cause First Aid to not attempt to cure it.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY LIST - List the current affliction priorities.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY LIST HIGHLIGHT - Highlight priorities still set to default.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY RESET - Resets all affliction priorities to
default.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY <aff> <1-26> - Set an affliction's priority.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY <aff> RESET - Reset a single affliction's priority to
default.
FIRSTAID ELEVATE <aff> - Elevate an affliction to maximum
priority until cured.
FIRSTAID UNELEVATE <aff> - Return an elevated affliction to its
original priority.
Pre-restore Priorities
----------------------
First Aid can also have priorities set for pre-restoration (restoring a limb's damage before it reaches broken status).
FIRSTAID PRIORITY PRESTORE
FIRSTAID PRESTORE ON|OFF
For example, FIRSTAID PRIORITY PRESTORE LEFT LEG 15% 7. So, if your limb damage on the left leg is at 15% or above, then FirstAid will apply restoration to it assuming you have no other salve afflictions with priority greater than 7. You can use RESET in place of a priority level to unset pre-restoration for that limb/percent combination. You can also use FIRSTAID PRESTORE ON|OFF to completely disable/enable pre-restoration without needing to adjust your priorities.
You can have multiple percent values for the same limb too. This lets you do something such as prioritise restoring your head if its damage is above 20%, followed by restoring your limbs if they're above 20%, followed by restoring your head if it's above 5%.
FirstAid will only attempt to cure damage that it knows about. That is, if you take limb damage through blackout, or mind blank, FirstAid won't know about that and won't attempt to cure it. You can compensate for this by either using the WOUNDS command to reset your known limb damage, or use afflict prediction (described below) to adjust your assumed limb damage manually.
Defence Priorities
------------------
First Aid can also maintain and upkeep various defences at priority levels. Defences at the same priority level as an affliction will always cure after the afflictions, i.e. defence priority 5 will fire after affliction priority 5, but before affliction priority 6.
At this time, only these defences are available for First Aid to maintain: blindness, deafness, density, arcane, fangbarrier, insomnia, levitation, rebounding, waterbreathing, instawake, temperance, speed, antivenin, vigor.
No default defence priorities are provided.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY DEFENCE LIST - List the defence upkeep priority.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY DEFENCE <def> <1-25> - Move an defence's upkeep priority.
FIRSTAID PRIORITY DEFENCE RESET - Reset the defence upkeep priority.
Priority Sets
-------------
FirstAid supports the ability to save and switch between different priority sets. Switching a priority set will switch all your affliction, defence, and pre-restore priorities. You can have a max of 15 named sets, and the default unnamed set makes a total of 16.
