Is there a way to disable auto equip? I rather just sell the rewards from the Heavensward quests then equip them since they still sell for a decent amount of money and I can just by the NQ set from a vendor if i need to upgrade.
In my patch 2.1-2.55 and Heavensward questing profiles, you should find a line just after the opening <Order> tag where you can change Auto-Equip to "0", thereby turning it off. If you want to choose a different optional reward as well, rather than let RB handle reward selection, you will find options for that - just search for "specific reward" and you will see quite a number of lines where you can change it to your preferred reward.
