2 is for AOE combo > stays at the top 1 is for Standard combo (single target) > main bar 3 is for Role skills

Built around RT Single Target LT AoE split, with most class buttons on the face buttons (A,B,X,Y), and role buttons on the D-Pad. Several buttons doubled to maintain comfortable play between AoE and Single Target combos. Assumes Sprint on L3 macro. Limit Break placed where I would have it if I didn't have a controller with keyboard command programmable buttons.

This layout puts most of the work on the face buttons and being comfortable with switching between Expanded and WXHB

I like to keep all my single target on the right trigger and AoE on the left trigger.

Looking into the current flow for 7.05 this seems like it should work and keep the placement of buttons matching the layout of the bars in the UI.

Utilizing Main XHB, WXHB and Expanded XHB

XHB RT = Single Target Normal

My starter Viper hotbar for Dawntrail, designed to be played with an MMO mouse.

i love this set up it allows for easy access to to ogcds whatever trigger you are holding. also easy reawaken combo and gcds are on face buttons so its easier to move while attacking

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 dye represents potion, and Sprint and LB are macroed to L3/R3 respectively.

Updated for latest patch

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

2. AOE Combos

3. Single Target Combo. Potion goes LT Right D-pad

This setup is optimized to my style of play. I tried to minimize the amount of movement my trigger fingers do cause I get tired.

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)
