Assuming you use something like Motes, with built-in classes for Normal and Resistant sets, I assume you could go through all the files and add an additional variable for them call MagicBurst. Then in your sets section, have a set called sets.midcast.ElementalMagic.MagicBurst. Then when you hit your keybind that toggles Normal and Resistant, you could swap to MagicBurst.

That is speculative. I have not attempted to do this personally yet.

You can also mode and bind the toggle to a keep press. Then in job_post_midcast write something like this:
if spell.skill == 'Elemental Magic' and default_spell_map ~= 'ElementalEnfeeble' then
if state.MagicBurst.value then equip(sets.MagicBurst) end
end

in job_setup you need:

state.MagicBurst = M(false, 'Magic Burst')

you can post this in the user_set up part of you job lua file:

send_command('bind ^delete gs c toggle MagicBurst')

change ^delete to whatever you want to use to toggle it

then you need with the rest of your sets (init_gear_sets()):

sets.MagicBurst = {}

fill that with a set you want for MB.

Mote's file might have this already set up I think though. I prefer this cause it's easier to switch between MB and not MB without having to toggle through all my casting modes.

I did everything above for GEO and it didnt work D:

I keep getting M nil value

I think that's the only thing messing with it.

Bump!
Anyone have any input on this?
Looking to do the same thing for GEO and SCH and can't figure out why it won't allow toggling of M.

Make a set in you LUA called Magic Burst and you will have to assign a macro or a key with /console gs toggle MagicBurst or whatever you call the set. It will be on or off its the easiest way to do it I think I just have it as a macro.

will need to put this in your lua in the functions area at the top as well

state.MagicBurst = M(false, 'Magic Burst')
