Some of these have been around for a while but haven't really been mentioned yet, so here goes.

Headmarker Offset Tracker

The "offset headmarkers" used in newer content are now centrally supported. You can use the new getMarkerOffset() method instead of getMarkerId(). In addition, you can use the reset() method on HeadmarkerOffsetTracker to forcibly reset the offset tracking, for example when you phase from a doorboss to final boss. However, the reset should be used sparingly since the reset will apply globally.

Callout Adapters

"Callout Adapters" are annotations that allow you to easily attach a trigger to a callout with one line. There are a few in the ASS triggers:

	@NpcCastCallout({0x7960, 0x7978})
	private final ModifiableCallout<AbilityCastStart> atropineSpore = ModifiableCallout.durationBasedCall("Atropine Spore", "Big Donut");

This will trigger this callout when an NPC starts casting 0x7960 or 0x7978.

There is also the headmarker version:

	@PlayerHeadmarker(value = -114, offset = true)
	private final ModifiableCallout<HeadMarkerEvent> blue1 = new ModifiableCallout<>("Blue #1", "Blue 1");

This will trigger the blue1 callout when we see a headmarker with a relative/offset ID of -114.

In order to use these in a class, your trigger class must extend AutoChildEventHandler.

To make a new adapter, you need to do two things: define your annotation, and define your adapter. You can use @NpcCastCallout and NpcCastAdapter as examples.

Cooldown Reduction Abilities

Fell cleave and friends reduce the cooldown of Infuritate by 5 seconds. This is now supported like so:

	Infuriate(builder(CooldownType.PERSONAL_BURST, true, 0x34)
			// Fell cleave
			.auxAbility(0xDDD, -5)
			// Decimate
			.auxAbility(0xDDE, -5)
			// Inner Chaos
			.auxAbility(0x404F, -5)
			// Chaotic Cyclone
			.auxAbility(0x4051, -5)
	),

This is not currently supported in the CD editor UI.
