Excellent mod, this should be native to the game - it's that big a quality of life change. So, I shall give back a little:
HOW TO USE THIS MOD ON STEAM DECK Bubble Buffs is loaded with the game UI if you're in Mouse + Keyboard mode (as opposed to controller mode), but I have found that it's actually pretty easy to switch schemes. You will need to find a guide for installing UMM mods on Steam Deck and then install Bubble Buffs.
Set back buttons on the deck; I have mind set up as Ctrl and F5 on the left and F10 and F8 on the right (so I can click in both top back buttons to bring up the console and the bottom ones are quicksave and quickload so I can easily do the rest of this guide). This is super easy to do, just hit the steam button while WOTR is active and go to control scheme, then hit X to remove the command that is there, and Add command > Keyboard
It just so happens that hitting one of the back buttons now ALSO prompts you to change control schemes to Mouse + Keyboard. While in Mouse + Keyboard mode, pushing any face button will prompt you to switch to Controller mode.
If you load the game IN MOUSE + KEYBOARD mode, Bubble Buffs loads. You can then use the touch screen to set up your buff routine, and slap dat BUFF button. Hit a face button and confirm then you are now fully buffed for 10 minutes or whatever and running around with controller mode.
When you need to buff again, press a back button > press Steam + X buttons to bring up the keyboard > hit Enter
You will switch to Mouse + Keyboard mode
Hit the F5 back button to quicksave, then F8 to quickload
You're already in M+K mode so Bubble Buffs loads with the UI
Smash dat buff button and subscribe
Hit a face button to swap back to controller mode.
I hope this helps, since it was heartbreaking for me to read that I couldn't use this on the Steam Deck and I refuse to spend like 20 minutes trying to buff myself using controller mode.
Two things: I wanted to say thank you for this mod. I've been using it a while and it's a lifesaver. Second thing is: I installed it on the Mac (I'm not sure if this is relevant) and it works perfectly, except consumables and items are blank when I go to set them up. I'm not sure what it could be other than I'm using a Mac. Spells and abilities work just fine, however.
How do I change the priority of the caster? For example, I have a party of 6, three members are capable of casting angelic aspect, and one of them is a brown-fur transmuter. What I want is for the two members who can cast it to cast it on themselves, and the arcanist to share transmutation to the remaining four party members. But bubble buffs ONLY wants the arcanist to do all six buffs themselves, it won't let me have the other two party members buff themselves.
Hey I installed the mod not too long ago and everytime I use the bubble buff buttons to cast a bunch of spells at once slows the game down to the point it's nearly unplayable, anyone knows how to fix that?
can confirm the mod works wonderfully to this day but wanted to ask: is there a way to get it to work with controller? it disappears completely after i toggle controller.
I've been using the mod without problems. The one that broke after the update for me was Toybox, but that got an update and now the game is fine. I played for a couple of hours with no crashes. Could be a conflict with another mod? I don't use many, only Toybox, char respec and visual adjustments.
What mod are you using to increase party size? i cannot seem to find one and i really want to use one to be able to play with 3 or 4 mercs plus the normal group of companions.
Note that >15 companions is easily achievable without any mods with just a few animal companions while you are in Drezen (where it shows your entire roster). It's not a big deal because you can always set up the configuration outside of Drezen, but it is slightly inconvenient since setting up "add to all" type of communal buffs are actually better done in Drezen so they still work regardless of who you take with you in your party.

NOTE: as far as I know this is working fine on the latest version of Wrath (as of 25th October, 2023).
If you are seeing issues please don't post things like "mod is no longer working, not supported" - this is patently untrue.
I welcome anyone to provide good bug reports ideally on the Owlcat discord.

I have a problem with casting shield with my alchemist.
all targets are in yellow
Is it normal ?
And yes it still works with latest patch as of October 21st 2024
This seems to cause crashing in the latest update 2.4.
(crashing when loading to a new area, tavern to map)
Any chance of an update please
