Designed with minimal swapping between 1 and 2. Most GCD on the non-D pad to help with attacking and moving. Hotbar 8 L and R are same so no thinking. Hotbar 1 is Single target while Hotbar 2 is AOE minded. Hotbar 2 has mount + sprint so keep in mind. Dye = Pot for raiders, if not than whatever you want. Enabled customization when weapon is drawn/sheathed Hotbar 1 + 2. That means hotbar 3 you will manually have to switch to if you need stuff on there. part of my Tank series where similar skills are in the same spots and play roughly in same style. Please Enjoy!

RB toggles between 1 and 8 for AOE

I open with Onslaught to start the rotation with single or multiple mobs. I usually use Tomahawk just to pick up strays on wandering mobs. For my movement rotation I have my left high-hat setup as my movement, and my single and AOE attacks on my right 4 sets of buttons. That way I can still attack and move at the same time. I have also placed Shake It off on my right button so i can gather for a stack attack. The rest of the Crossbar is just the best place that works for me.

Updated for Dawntrail

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

Single target on RT + face buttons, AOE on LT + face buttons

Damage mitigation on LT + D pad, barriers and healing on double LT + face buttons

I use a mmo gaming mouse from razer called the Naga, the 3x4 grid is the exact layout as my mouse buttons. Hot bar 2 goes like this from left to right, top to bottom: 1, 2, 3, 4, Q, E, R, T, 5, -, =. The - and = are left and right on my mouse wheel, 5 is reserved for long cooldowns. Hot bar 3 is the same as 2 but with shift being held. The empty item between Tomahawk and Holmgang is a health Pot

MMO mouse setup with modifiers.

Maximum movement hotbars. Most common/important ability on face button. Gropued by sections: Defensives, Final combo GCDs + 25 sec, Tank functions, AOE, gap closers and range attack ect.

Single Target (L)

Mobs (R)

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