It's also useful to bind the power to light the oil slick to the same key. This gives:
/bind [Key Here] "targetcustomnext Oil Slick$$powexecname [Power Name]"
This is particularly useful for Technology and Magic Origin characters since you can use your Origin Power here, allowing you to light your Slick without worry over whether a power has recharged or not.

I mean, I'm not doubting you but I never would have guessed that.

Any power that deals either energy or fire damage will light the oil slick. The most amusing one I've seen was on a team with two TA defenders using one Oil Slick to light the second |

As Adeon points out, any Energy or Fire damage will light the Slick.
An amusing case is Sonic Blast. Tada! You light the oil by shouting at it.

Copy/Paste of a reply I left in an older thread about this
Oil Slick can be lit by either fire or energy damage
Throwing Knives - Lethal - Does not light
Tranq Dart - Lethal/Toxic - Does not light
Mutagen - Toxic - Does not light
Apprentice Charm - Energy - Does light
Taser Dart - Energy - Does light
My Level 40 TA/A uses Taser Dart all the time to light it (It's alot faster than Blazing Arrow)
Note: There is an elusive bug that causes Oil Slick to fail to ignite even with fire/energy damage.
I noticed the bug last night when I would shoot it with my blazing arrow and it wouldn't ignite. I thought maybe it only had a chance to light.
I suppose it technically does only have a chance to light but not for the right reasons.
I've never used keybinds before but I just got Oil Slick on my TA/A and realized how useful it'd be to target my oil slicks with a keypress rather than frantic Tab mashing or mouse clicking. Can anyone let me know how I'd go about this? Thanks.
