Right-on madtrap;
After 35 yrs and 9000 hrs of mutiengine [ lt/med twin] flying and having been to many of the sim schools [Flt Safety, Simcom and RTC] I like the "pitch to five [or whatever is appropriate for the type], roll to the bug, step-on [and hold] the ball" approach which works every time particularly on the gauges. With the heading bug set to departure [rwy] heading it is very natural to roll to the bug and the follow-on rudder is also natural and rapid. Virtually eliminates initial incorrect response such as stomping on the wrong rudder at a high pitch angle.
