    Introduction

    In this tutorial I want to introduce you to Grinder and its options. All the basics will be explained from start to end. You will not only get a first insight but you will be able to use your Grinder as you like. More advanced tutorials on certain features like Pathfinder or the Rotation System are linked in this tutorial. However, they are also explained here in a beginner-friendly way.



    Please make sure you have disabled all additional Addons except GDR.

    In a brief overview, Grinder wants to know what this is all about.

    Heal
    To heal your character during the fight.

    Combat
    In all situations that occur during the fight.

    Food/Drink
    To regenerate your character.

    Out of Combat
    Renewable Spells like Buffs, Auras, or craftable items.

    Do not recast if active
    If your selection causes damage over time on the target, your selection will not be re-executed as long as it is active.

    Confirm your selection by clicking Add.    		 Bitte melden Sie sich an, um diesen Anhang zu sehen.



    In this example, we select a Spell again. This time, a Buff. Check the box for Out of Combat and another box for Do not recast if active. This way the spell will only be applied outside of combat if it is not active. Bitte melden Sie sich an, um diesen Anhang zu sehen.



    There are now two spells in our Combat rotation. One Buff and one Combat spell. Clicking on the respective spell will give you more options to expand your rotation in more detail. These will be explained in the advanced tutorials (see below).
