Just wondering if this can be done.

I don't have a spellcast XML for NIN. Just wondering if I can make an entire NIN.xml for one purpose only. To equip and lock my Hachimaki/Temp Torque whenever I'm wearing a staff, then back to my regular TP gear when Staff is not equipped. So, anyone care to attempt this? :p

It's fairly trivial to do, in a couple different ways.

Option 1: set TP set to always use appropriate skill gear
Code xml
<var name="TPWeapon">Katana</var>


<set name="TP-Katana"></set>
<set name="TP-Staff"></set>


<if EquipMain="*Staff">
    <var cmd="set TPWeapon Staff" />
</if>
<else>
    <var cmd="set TPWeapon Katana" />
</else>


<equip when="aftercast" set="TP-$TPWeapon" />



Option 2: equip appropriate skill gear when trying to weaponskill; put sufficient delay in for the skill increase to take effect before sending the weaponskill command
Code xml
<set name="StaffSkill"></set>

<if type="Weaponskill">
    <equip when="Precast" set="Weaponskill" />

    <if Spell="Sunburst" advanced='"$TPWeapon"="Staff"'>
        <equip when="Precast" set="StaffSkill" />
        <castdelay delay="1.0" />
    </if>
</if>

If you want it to just use Sunburst you don't need to lock the skill gear during the tp phase to be able to use the weaponskill.
Basically the option 2 that moten posted will make it, i use it for impact and it works fine.
Code
  	<if Spell="Sunburst">
		<castdelay delay="2" />
        	<equip when="precast" set="Sunburst" />
        </if>


The only thing is that since you won't have the required skill you won't be able to select the WS from the menu, but you can trigger the rule with a macro or if you type it on the chat (/ws "sunburst")
