What ive used since the beginning. Both L2 -> R2 and R2 -> L2 bring you to the same hotbar to quick trigger over if youre using the STG or AOE side

Updated for Dawntrail

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

1 - Main XHB

RT Face Buttons - Main In-Combat Actions

for each job, I create a "hotbar" that is basically a monitor for cooldowns/any spell/skill I want to see the status of; I also have a hotbar with Role spells & skills, and, Sprint. These are the spells I have for Dawntrail. I use Hotbars 2 & 10 but you can use any Hotbars you want.

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"

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

This layout works for levelling SMN from 1 through Dawntrail

Just copied Nanaki's

RT single target RT -> LT aoe LT lego, swift/raise/lucid LT -> RT rest of the buttons. smn doesn't have many

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)

SMN setup that took me to 90. Do I have Swiftcast all over the place? Sure, but that's because when I need it I hate scrambling for it. For the blank spots, I'll usually put in things that I use often out of combat (Eternal Bonding ring, treasure maps, WT, ect.)
