Gain Searing Flash. (Decouple from Searing Light. Teleport as placeholder.)

No new buttons otherwise.

Gain Full Metal Field. (Decouple from Barrel Stabilizer. Teleport as placeholder.)

Seems like that's about it.

Gain Last Dance. (Teleport as Placeholder. Not actually too sure if this is a new button.)

Maybe play with where Saber Dance, Last Dance, Starfall Dance, and Fan Dance IV are. Might feel bad to hit those buttons in those locations.

Auto-attack is Pitch Perfect. Keep that seperate.

Gain Resonant Arrow as a follow-up from Barrage. (Uncouple as a follow-up. Down arrow macro icon as placeholder.)

No real changes. Unfortunately.

Lose Shoha II (Thank God.)

No new buttons.

Lose Huraijin.

No new buttons.

Lose Anatman.

Not much change otherwise.

Spineshatter Dive replaced with Winged Glide.

Not much change.

Gain Psyche. (Jump as placeholder.)

Gain Philosophia. (Teleport as placeholder.)

Lose Astrodyne, Draw, Redraw, Undraw, Play.

Gain Astral/Umbral Draw. (Draw as placeholder.)

Gain Seraphism. (Teleport as placeholder.)

Just copied Nanaki's

MMO mouse setup with modifiers.

Thought Process

• melee and spells separated
• Tried to place ogcds near their rotation/burst gcds (e.g. embolden near melee combo, pot near spells for opener, etc)
• Fleche and C6 duplicated to make drifting harder
• spell relevant actions near spells (e.g. lucid, instants)
• macro icon is placeholder for pots
• Expanded XHB on HB 2 shared with WXHB to see cooldowns, use whichever you feel comfortable using. I just think double tapping is annoying :)

Keybinds for those interested.

I use an mmo mouse so 1-6 on all bars are pressed on the mouse, uisng shift and ctrl for bar 2 and 3. The latter 6 on all bars are pressed uisng the keyboard and shift/ctrl.

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)

Updated for Dawntrail

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

RDM as of 6.5

I show Cross Hotbar 3 (Left) with both of the expanded trigger controls, so you can easily add in another 8 actions if you prefer, I use XHB 8 as a shared bar between all classes for traversal and general actions outside of combat. Role actions are consistent among my layouts, and so are general actions. The macro icon is a placeholder for a Tincture/Gemdraught.

Based on Squintina's layout, but with tweaks that fit my brain better. ST on chotbar 1, AoE on chotbar 2. I hit R1 (right bumper) to change to the AoE and sit on that chotbar as needed. Since RDM is my Eureka job, I have Eureka Potion set to chotbar 3, LDU.

Lvl 100 Red Mage XHB made by a ps5 player

Hotbar 1: White mana on the left side, black mana on the right side. Single target above, AoEs below. Both/neutral down the middle. I used to put acceleration on Hotbar 3, but it's better this way for quick succession to the relevant actions.

Hotbar 2 (ctrl): The 1-2-3 melee combo on top. I usually have my gap close/make on those two middle positions. Sleep, lucid, cure, and the DPS buff are just rollovers from my old hotbar as Summoner, my first job, and that was before I put more thought into hotbar setups. AoE and run+gun spenders on the bottom row.

Pot goes on Bar 3 Down D-Pad Raise uses Macro
