Yes, you can modify the spell names within the `/castsequence` or `/cast` commands to align with your chosen talents. Ensure that the spells are instant cast or have short cast times for an opener.
'reset=10' means the cast sequence will reset after 10 seconds of inactivity or upon entering combat again. This prevents you from being stuck in the middle of a sequence if combat ends or you pause.
