Tired of spamming life flask as a pathfinder Boss

Can we please get some form of automation with either instilling orbs or some other way to work on life flasks when used with the Master Surgeon notable on pathfinder? I load up every league looking to play pathfinder only to not end up making a build because i don't want carpal tunnel from spamming my life flask every 3 seconds. Hoping that maybe something gets added to the notable Master Surgeon to allow life flask automation or something similar.

U can just uninstall if u don't want to push buttons, it's ez, few clicks = done 👍

I think this critique is quite valid: There is no reason, you do not want the life flask to be active 100% of the time, once flask charge management is solved, so, why does the player has to press constantly a button? There is no longer a decision to be made with the life flask.

This game consists of 1-2 button builds mostly, but still here and there peeps want to avoid pushing it lol. Don't get me wrong, I'm fine with it, but seriously, that's a part of gameplay, of ur build, if u don't like it u can try another, there is famous 0 button build even. This game need core changes instead of this stupid threads "mooom I want everything die on the map when I click portal". It takes time. It takes attention. GGG has problems ATM. They need stuff, money, fresh ideas etc etc etc. Poe 1 in a very bad spot overall atm and they have poe2 on top of that.
So. Is this "I don't want to push flask once per 3 sec" that important?

I mean they literally added instilling orbs for the same exact reason im talking about with life flasks. It's boring and monotonous to press a key over and over for a flask effect. It's one thing to press ability buttons and another thing entirely to afk press a flask because you have to. Again there is precedent in the instilling flasks being added to the game. All im saying is if im talenting into master surgeon which is going to make me press my flask on CD then id like a way to automate it just like they did for every other flask in the game. Im not even asking for this in all aspects of the game. Only when im specced into master surgeon.

Gaming is about to make decisions, spamming a button is not playing.
It is poor game design.

Had this discussion quite a few leagues ago still think it should be automated, they should nerf it too but degenerate gameplay should always be fixed and i'm sorry but asking your player to press 1 every 5 seconds is degenerate.

It should be a meaningful choice or passive, even things like warcries have considerably more things to consider than pressing 1 on pot cooldown.

I understand not wanting to automate health flasks in general because pressing your health flask at the right time to save your life in general is a good decision made by the player. Thay being said, when you have a ascendancy like master surgeon that takes that meaningful choice and turns it into a constant button spam for generic hp recovery then there should be some automation allowed. Im all for health potions being a meaningful button press but if your speccing into master surgeon the meaningfulness goes away and it becomes, did I press the button every 3 seconds to stay alive? Oh, I missed 1 of the 230 clicks in the last 2 min map guess I died. Def needs some QOL to automate this process. Again im asking for ONLY when you have the ascendance point master surgeon.

Yeah, it really would be nice if instilling functionality for life/mana flasks would be in the game formally for things like PF life flask or Warden tinctures.

Just makes the whole ascendency point really unappealing no matter how powerful it might be. It could make me immune to damager but I still wouldn't want to press the button every 3 seconds.
