Quickstart

This page walks you through your curing setup and the commands you'll use every day. It assumes nexSys is installed and running. If it isn't, start with Installation.

nexSys works well out of the box. Expect to spend about ten minutes here, most of it on defences.

1. Open the configuration window​

ns config

The window has five tabs: System, Aff Priorities, Defences, Precache, and Colors. Nothing you change takes effect until you select Save. Cancel, or closing the window, throws your changes away.

2. System​

Check these settings first:

  • Load on login: switch it on so nexSys starts every time you log in.
  • Curing type: choose the curing skill your character uses, Transmutation (minerals) or Concoctions (herbs).
  • Sip priority: what to sip first when both health and mana are low. The hh alias swaps it in game.
  • Thresholds: when to sip and eat moss. The defaults suit most characters.

Every setting is explained in System settings.

3. Aff Priorities​

nexSys ships with recommended affliction priorities, so there's nothing you have to change here. To make an affliction more or less urgent, drag it to another column. Prio 1 is cured first, and Ignored 26 is never cured.

Leave columns 1 to 3 empty. nexSys's rules use them to push an affliction to the front when the situation calls for it.

4. Defences​

The class list starts on your current class. For each defence:

  • Priority 1 to 25 means nexSys looks after the defence. Lower numbers go up first. 0 means nexSys leaves it alone.
  • Defup checked means the defence goes up only when you type defup. Unchecked means nexSys keeps it up all the time and raises it again if it's stripped.

Defence names are colored by cost. Red ones take balance or equilibrium to raise, so give them the lowest priority or leave them for defup. See Defences for the details.

5. Precache​

Each number is how many of that herb or mineral to carry. nexSys takes more out of your rift when you're short and puts extras back. With the default of 0, that curative stays in your rift. See Precache.

6. Save​

Select Save. nexSys stores your configuration and updates Achaea's server-side curing straight away.

Everyday commands​

CommandWhat it does
ppPause or resume nexSys. Pausing also turns server-side curing off.
defupRaise your defences.
defoffLower your defences.
t <name>Set your target.
qa <command>Queue a command to run as soon as you have balance.
ns configOpen the configuration window.

All the aliases are on the Commands page.

Check that it's working​

  • Your prompt is the nexSys prompt. A (p) at the front means nexSys is paused. Type pp to resume.
  • Notices such as [-nexSys-] +aff asthma appear as you gain and lose afflictions. You can choose which notices you see on the System tab.
  • In game, CURINGSET LIST shows nexsys4-default as your active curing set.
