Regarding soulsteal, keep in mind that even the best soulstealers who
do it manually only succeed about a third of the time.  Part of the
problem is that mush tries to soulsteal immediately on getting the
trigger for dread portent, but you often can't soulsteal the mob for a
few seconds after that point.  Just because something is near death,
doesn't mean it's close enough for soulsteal to work.

Personally, I recommend you set up a single character alias like 'j'
that allows you to cast soulsteal quickly.  In the time it takes you
to hear the dread portent sound and manually run the alias, you'll
have a better shot of landing it.

I set up the timers like this intentionally.  Soulsteal is a sort of
minigame, and it's one of the few things that's an actual timing based
skill you have to learn RL to do it well.  I think having a trigger
for it defeats that purpose.
