Sage Hotbar Layouts and Guides

Damage on right, single-target heals on left, buffs in center, AOE heals on double-right.

Valen Bree

Tank macro = /target <2> Triangle macro = /target <f>

Goal is to use only Expanded XHB LT-RT and RT-LT, keeping everything and timers visible and not having to also use WXHB double click hold, to speed up usage in trials and raids. With also keeping similar layout between healing jobs.

This is initial layout before testing.

Sage Crossbars | Patch 7.05

Just copied Nanaki's

PROVISIONAL - NOT LEVELLED OR TESTED

Thanks for the credit distraughtklownz! =)

Thanks to Nanaki for the inspiration on this hotbar.

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

Friend asked for a layout

1 2 3 4 5 6

Note: Sprint and Limit Break should be on a Shared Hotbar!!!

Macro0: Kerachole <wait>/Rhizomata

Macro1: Icarus <2>/Icarus <t>

MMO mouse setup with modifiers.

Auto Attack is used as a placeholder for Psyche in 7.0, and Jump is in place of Eudaimonia

Still learning best ways to access what I use most, but this so far feels like the best flow to me.

General notes:

• "Main" hotbar is RT
• Frequently used abilities or important ones to use while moving go on the face buttons
• AoE versions of things go on expanded hotbar
• Only using one expanded hotbar so no LT>RT vs. RT>LT confusion during combat
• Infrequently used abilities go on WXHB
• Star button on WXHB is a focus target macro

Sage-specific notes:

• Sage has lots of single-target vs. AoE abilities, so placement on expanded hotbar mirrors this (Dosis/Dyskrasia, Diagonosis/Prognosis, Taurochole/Kerachole, Druochole/Ixochole, Haima/Panhaima)
• Philosophia placement mirrors that of Soteria (LT vs. LT-LT)
• Krasis on d-pad down to make it easy to cycle down to the tank and target them for it (down, down, RT+down)
  • Remember to adjust your party list job priority!
• Zoe and Pneuma next to each other since they usually get used together
• Eukrasia on WXHB is a macro to turn it off
• Speech button on WXHB is a macro to indicate Swiftcast cooldown (i.e., when I will attempt to res again)

SGE Layout Pre-7.0

6.55 Layout (Removed after 7.0 launch) : Here
LT>RT remapped from Set 8 Left to Set 8 Right, only right half of Set 8 is used
Set 1 - Primary Heals/CDs ; Set 2 - Utility + Raise ; Set 8 - DPS / Heal CDs

UPDATES

Numbers correlate to Macros
0 Psyche
1 Philosophia
Set 8 Left - Removed Abilities
This set has been adjusted to be in line with my WHM 7.0 Preliminary

After coming back to game pre 7.0, June 2024

Gear = Kardia MO Macro

DPS Icon = Psyche

Endwalker 90 Sage

L2 + DP: Rez Actions

SGE Layout 6.55 (Not 7.0-Able)
LT>RT remapped from Set 8 Left to Set 8 Right, only right half of Set 8 is used
Set 1 - Primary Heals/CDs ; Set 2 - Utility + Raise ; Set 8 - DPS / Heal CDs

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.

Gain Psyche. (Jump as placeholder.)

Gain Philosophia. (Teleport as placeholder.)

Preliminary 7.0 Setup

“Question mark“ is used as filler for upcoming abilities:

kets go

I've got a Taurochole macro

/micon Taurochole /merror off /ac Taurochole /ac Druochole

From Bun Boss video

Trying to replicate similar to my WHM hotbar, if such a thing can be done

The XHB setup I use for my Sage. 1-3 are unique to SGE, all else are shared between all jobs. XHB4's LT->RT pane is a selection of emotes. XHB7 is my job selector.

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.
