Chains and optional

So I'm kind of curious how the optional button works in terms of timing. Is there any consideration of recast if optional is clicked?

For example:

Wizard FB chain > FB > Fusion > E'ci > Fusion (if reset) > blah blah > Rays of Disintegration.

ok, so supposing I have a basic chain like that, I set the fusions and rays to optional because they can both be reset by other spells.
I don't care so much about fusion because it's recast is so close to FB anyway, but with rays, it resets so often that it's a waste to not have it cast all the time.

The problem comes along that even though I have the chain in the named tab, and the spell itself in the CA tab, rays never goes off even though it's set to optional. I have fusion set to optional for the same reason, but I can't tell if it does the same thing because of the recast of FB.

anyway, TL;DR
chain with optional rays of disintegration, am I doing something wrong?

Thanks!

Doesn't work that way.

Optional is telling the CHAIN to go without it. Doesn't mean the bot will use the ability outside of the chain, if it would interfere with the chain.
