allow setting of priority skills. skills you would like the hero to use more often

allow setting of a skill to a state where hero uses everytime its available.

allow a formation Setup for Henchies/heros that you can setup.

pretty much all i can think of atm for this

Actually I equipped Koss with Primal Rage today... He didn't use it even once if I didn't make him to...

Some of what you want already exists. If you equip skills closer to the left, they ARE put on priority... if you have a condition-specific skill on the right (for example, Remove Hex), then the hero will still use that when possible of course but they tend to start out on the left skills because of how the AI was programmed.

Yeah, i've put up infuse on the 6th spot in the right, but my monk hero didnt used it once. Changed it to the first spot in the left and started using it every time target lost a bit more life

I tried putting them on the left but it doesnt work. I gave my ele dual attunements, one on the first slot the second on the second slot, and he almost never uses them. I go inbetween battles and push it for him. >.<

Giving them priorities would be nice.

that priority thing isnt set right maybe the game will "look" at those skills first but it definately does not make them a priority. the reason why i want this one is because like you guys said there are skills those heros just will not use unless you baby sit them. thats all fine and dandy but i dont have 4 different mice and four different hands to use all of them. if they want to avoid setting priorities maybe they can allow us to hotkey hero skills that would be good also not the best but good.

personally as of right now i know how to use my skills better than these heros. henchmen yea they are very good. compare the monks both henchies and heros and you can c the gap they have between energy management and whatever.

Now that I finally got Nightfall, I can say /signed for priority skills.

Did a brief test with a ranger hero and loaded my typical Enraged Lunge with some pet shouts PvE template for it to test. The damn AI cheats with the shouts. It knows when they are on and won't use them again until they wear off from the pet, making it bad for Enraged Lunge.

Priority marking a skill so it would be always used in combat when available would be an ideal solution.
