Add a trinket/utility toggle

Please, please add a general (class-agnostic) toggle for trinkets/utilities, similar to the existing potions toggle.

I have macroed my trinkets to the most appropriate CDs, and I’m not a cutting-edge-level player where a suboptimal trinket usage would matter.

But I have 11 toons, and it is really annoying that I have to find and disable the utility/trinket usage in the action lists for each and every toon every time a new Hekili update comes out. And then again with the next update. This goes so far that I’m seriously considering ditching Hekili for HeroRotation, albeit Hekili obviously is ways better.

I beg you: Add that toggle.

You could disable the trinkets themselves rather than their priority entries.

A toggle implies that you want to be able to quickly and easily turn them off/on for good reasons in combat. That doesn't sound like your use-case, here.

I don't think it's exceptionally burdensome to go into the trinket's options and hit disable when you acquire a new trinket that you want to keep out of your priority. (Far better than adjusting the priority and then having your priority reset when I update.)

If there's something I'm missing that would be more persuasive, let me know. Adding more and more toggles means asking folks to bind more and more keys, and I think it's a really small # of users that would want to disable trinkets permanently and a smaller number that would want to toggle them on/off separately from the Cooldowns toggle.

This would be the same or even more work, no? (Unless all toons have the same trinkets.) Or am I missing something obvious?

No, the idea of a toggle was to circumvent the repeated “patching” of the priorities because of resets (updates). A more long-term thingy, not so much for quickly switching on/off. And keybinds are optional either way.

But this…

[…] to go into the trinket's options and hit disable when you acquire a new trinket that you want to keep out of your priority. (Far better than adjusting the priority and then having your priority reset when I update.)

…seems to imply that the Trinket options are not reset with updates. If it is like this, then it is something I didn’t know. In that case it is indeed better than patching the abilities each time. Now your first answer above also makes more sense to me!

OK. I will test going this route in the future.

I still think a more global toggle (like in HeroRotation, or like your Potion toggle) would be very handy, but I also understand your reluctance to add more stuff.

Many thanks!

Thanks for understanding. It's still up for consideration if there's more thought behind it. It just creates more complexity.

And yes, the rule of default priorities is that I can update them at any time I want. Your trinket options are not reset with priority updates. :)

Your trinket options are not reset with priority updates.

Thanks for the confirmation. Great!
