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)

Waiting for the new action images to get added in to fully get this good

Make sure to change Double tap L2 to "Cross Hotbar 4 - Left" and Double tap R2 to "Cross Hotbar 4 - Right"

Hotbars for Lv60 Samurai.

How I set up my crossbars as a Samurai on steamdeck (Currently level ~70)

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

Standard Samurai Controller/WXHB setup

XHB 1 - Single Target Main Actions

Endwalker Lvl90 Samurai

Shoha II is gone (finally) which allows all skills to fit on 2 and 2/3 hotbars

Work In Progress SAM controller setup

things to note: I am a casual player and have set this as a draft setup, subject to change on testing, please use as a template. Main XHB is 1, WXHB is 2 and expanded XHB is 3. for simplicity will now be abbreviated to HB1, HB2 and HB3. HB3 is shared on all classes for me, on DPS second wind is always on the same spot RT+ LT + Y along with mount, teleport etc (not shown).

Just copied Nanaki's

Main XHB is split up with Directional buttons on LT and Face buttons on RT. WXHB has all the important buttons that you will press on the RT this includes you pot, with healing skills/healing potions on the LT. the Expanded XHB has same skills on both configs and has your AOE skills and de-buff skills plus Limit break.

This setup has a smooth layout that make pressing all your buttons with little stress and with great flow. For 7.0 you can see Zanshin replaces Ikishoten after using it so you don't have to change the layout to accommodate the new skill. And since Shoha and Shoha II are one button it also frees up a place to add either a role action skill or something else.
