helo here's my current brushes + the auto actions i like to use.
recently i've been using my shading brush for lining as well, just set the hardness to maximum and the size to around 5-9px depending on your canvas.
i don't really mess with the brush settings besides hardness for softer shadows. stipple the blending brush for a painterly effect, or use the froggy blur if you prefer soft gradients.
border pen setup + border pen merge is very useful for creating shapes, i generally use it whenever i need to draw a boatload of pearls and jewels!
on the example image, the little laugh effect was drawn with border pen setup. (nice for making stickers too!)
watercolor border is nice if you want cast shadows to have a thin darker edge, but can be kinda annoying if your brush isn't 100% opaque.
