I would suggest it either needs its own dedicated toggle or should obey the AoE toggle.

Reason for this being there are times it is inappropriately applied, such as in a raid (e.g. A1 Faust) when there are adds present but you don't want to target them - but the bot logic places Flaming Circle anyway.

I'm very sure it's because you have destroy/cds/buffs on as it won't fire off flaming arrow when they're turned off together with aoe. However, A1 faust i don't see why you would'nt want to put flaming arrow down as it's free dps done upon faust, it's not like you're gonna get aggro off the adds anyway.

It would be fine if it put the flaming arrow down over Faust for example, but with the logic the bot tries to employ, it places the flaming arrow circle over the adds - where 2+ mobs gather. So I'm targeting Faust but the circle gets placed over the adds. The same thing happens if the AoE toggle is switched on. The bot will target AoE's on the adds while Faust is targeted. 

I definitely didn't have Destroy on, but did leave the CD's/Buff's on as that would lower DPS significantly. I figure logically, it would make sense to have Flaming Arrow On/Off according to the AoE toggle if it doesn't warrant it's own.

I'm sorry if I sound unappreciative. I personally think Pierce is an amazing routine and is the most fun I have had as Bard vs skillmanager profiles. I just want to get the most out of it that I can, and I honestly think this would be an improvement. But if others don't see any purpose in this change, fair enough. :)

If it's putting your aoe's on a different target other than your main target then it's because you have "smart aoe" on which i really advise you not to in raids. I personally don't use any other toggles other than Destroy/Buffs/cd's as aoe-ing which only consists of Rain of Death and the two other aoe's spamming(manually, as you don't really want to keep use emp arrow/non straight arrow procs/invigorate when you need to aoe things down quickly, such as a6's blasters for example.

100% Smart aoe or destroy toggle

The opener may cast it if aoe is off .. but the normal cast has an aoe check in place.

So.. I need to toggle Smart AoE off as well as AoE to ensure Flaming Arrow is not cast? 

I shall try that out. Thanks. :)
