My controller setup for monk on controller

Endwalker 90 Monk

L2 + DP: Chakra buffs and Weird waitey buffs

Monk Cross Hotbar setup based from Bun Boss FFXIV on Youtube as of Sep 15, 2022 (except expanded XHB which I regularly access).

Just copied Nanaki's

monk hurts my brain don't take this hotbar seriously it's most likely not optimal, it works for me when i've had my food and water and sleep

From Bun Boss video but slighly modified

I created my chotbars to be comfortable, practical, and aesthetic.(to me anyway) Nearly all same/similar skills are in the same position across all jobs/roles while allowing for as little finger gymnastics as possible.

My XHB is split between chotbars 2(left) and 7(right)

I'm a small streamer that loves FFXIV and many other things. The XHBs I publish are solely how I personally like to organize my Hotbars when on the controller! Feel free to use them if you too like them! Some are thrown together and some are planned out.

Form Shift - Dragon Kick - Twin Snakes - Demolish - Bootshine - True Strike - Snap Punch (this is the best opener and single target attack gives you all the buffs)

Basic skills on right, AOE on left, buffs on cross.

Lose Anatman.

Not much change otherwise.

How I set up my crossbars as a monk on steamdeck (Currently level ~65)

I try to play every classes/jobs, thus I tend to reuse same slots for same "functionality" across jobs.
