HB 2 is expanded as well cause double tapping triggers sucks :) HB 3 for aoe and the space to fit single target rotation on 2 htobars

Thought Process

• GCDs on face buttons for easy movement while pressing-
• WXHB and Expanded shared on XHB 2 so can see Expanded cooldowns
• Left trigger, XHB 1 starts opener
  • rear positional on bottom buttons and flank on side
• Right trigger bar is mainly used for filler GCDs and the reawaken part of the burst
• duplicate actions because we have so much space so trying to limit having to swap triggers and help with weaves
• AOE on bar 3 to switch to when needed saves room (not really needed, just a habit from other jobs)
• sprint on L3
• macro on XHB 2 is pot

Thought process

• GCDs on face buttons so movement is easier while rolling gcd
• OGCDs put roughly in order of pressing (e.g. lance charge ->Litany -> clockwise following gcd order)
• WXHB and Expanded XHB are shared on Hotbar 2 so I can see the Expanded because double tapping is annoying and 32 slots is plenty for most jobs
• Macro is placeholder for Pot
• Hotbar 3 is for easy switching to during 3+ encounters and so they don't waste space, leaving room to add reminder macros or move anti kb to a face button
  • There are 3 free buttons (4 if you remove leg sweep) if you want to add aoe anyway
• Sprint as a macro on the left thumbstick (L3) so you can press it while moving

Thought Process

• single target on the right
• role actions in the same place as red mage build
• gcds on face buttons for movement because smn doesnt cast
• WXHB and Expanded XHB shared on hotbar 2 so cooldowns visible and dont have to use double tap
• AOE duplicated on XHB 3 because I expected to have to move it from XHB when smn got more abilities :/
  • if you need room just keep whatever is comfier
• Legos in order for titan first opener
• Also, yeah that is just physick. Honestly probably just going to put lux solaris there

Thought Process

• melee and spells separated
• Tried to place ogcds near their rotation/burst gcds (e.g. embolden near melee combo, pot near spells for opener, etc)
• Fleche and C6 duplicated to make drifting harder
• spell relevant actions near spells (e.g. lucid, instants)
• macro icon is placeholder for pots
• Expanded XHB on HB 2 shared with WXHB to see cooldowns, use whichever you feel comfortable using. I just think double tapping is annoying :)

Reaper Cross Hotbar setup based from Bun Boss FFXIV on Youtube as of Sep 8, 2022 (except expanded XHB which I regularly access).

Not changes for new abilities, but changed to better fit new hotbar layout

Single target on RT, AOE on double RT with D-pad combinations mostly the same for both situations.

2nd most used skills are on LT and double LT with face button combinations

General XHB combat layout I use in game. Feel free to use it if curious on how the flow might gauge for you.

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

Damn, this is a lot of buttons.

Just copied Nanaki's

No real changes. Unfortunately.
