The VerHotbar

These are my RDM hotbars, very much a WIP, Hopefully you enjoy :)

Almost Entirely Based on boatium's Personal MMO Mouse RDM: https://www.xivbars.com/job/RDM/5141

Black is right, white is left. there's still a lot of flexibility here, but this is more or less what works for me

First attempt to make panels for MMO mouse with 2 3x4 hotbars and 1 6x2 for utility

Current WIP for updated hotbars in 7.0, focusing on minimising swapping hotbars in combat and keeping visual clarity on relevant buff cooldowns and maximising consistency across all jobs. Bar 1 is for single target, and Bar 2 for AoE.

The Glamour Plate button is being used in place of the newly added skill as needed, and the dye represents potion. Sprint and LB are macroed to L3/R3 respectively.

MMO mouse setup with modifiers.

Hotbar 1: White mana on the left side, black mana on the right side. Single target above, AoEs below. Both/neutral down the middle. I used to put acceleration on Hotbar 3, but it's better this way for quick succession to the relevant actions.

Hotbar 2 (ctrl): The 1-2-3 melee combo on top. I usually have my gap close/make on those two middle positions. Sleep, lucid, cure, and the DPS buff are just rollovers from my old hotbar as Summoner, my first job, and that was before I put more thought into hotbar setups. AoE and run+gun spenders on the bottom row.

Single Target (L)

Mobs (R)

this layout works for levelling from RDM unlock through Dawntrail. main crossbar is your single target spells & burst rotation, and the 2nd has your AOE spells

Keybinds for those interested.

I use an mmo mouse so 1-6 on all bars are pressed on the mouse, uisng shift and ctrl for bar 2 and 3. The latter 6 on all bars are pressed uisng the keyboard and shift/ctrl.

Pot goes on Bar 3 Down D-Pad Raise uses Macro

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)
