A WIP that tries to fit all the need options on 2 bars

My controller setup for monk on controller

Lose Anatman.

Not much change otherwise.

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.

My MMO mouse monk Layout

Basic skills on right, AOE on left, buffs on cross.

Monk Cross Hotbar setup based from Bun Boss FFXIV on Youtube as of Sep 15, 2022 (except expanded XHB which I regularly access).

It's just easy for me this way

Endwalker 90 Monk

L2 + DP: Chakra buffs and Weird waitey buffs

monk hurts my brain don't take this hotbar seriously it's most likely not optimal, it works for me when i've had my food and water and sleep

Just copied Nanaki's

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)
