PVEAdamKings DRG Hotbars and Flowchart v1
Basic DPS rotation with movement skills, a flowchart, and visualized cooldowns. Bars four, five, and six are in the center of my screen so I can easily see cooldowns as well as visualize the flowchart of the typical Dragoon DPS rotation.
Bar 1 - Main Rotation:
- DRG
XHBPVEDRG 7.0
General notes:
- Frequently used abilities or important ones to use while moving go on the face buttons
- AoE versions of things go on expanded hotbar
- Only using one expanded hotbar so no LT>RT vs. RT>LT confusion during combat
- Infrequently used abilities go on WXHB
- Star button on WXHB is a focus target macro
Dragoon notes:
- Base combos move in circles A-X-Y-B and then opposite B, making for smooth, circular movements that are easy to maintain during mechanics
- oGCDs are arranged across LT and RT halves such that the important ones can be duplicated on the expanded hotbar in identical positions
- This makes it easy to quickly hit them even while you're on the "wrong" hotbar half (e.g., doing the
Chaotic Springcombo and you need to hitHigh Jump/Mirage Dive) - Also makes it easy to monitor cooldowns (except long-cooldown buffs
Lance ChargeandBattle Litany) while the expanded hotbar is displayed
- This makes it easy to quickly hit them even while you're on the "wrong" hotbar half (e.g., doing the
Wyrmwind Thruston LT since it should usually go withChaotic Springcombo unless the rotation gets messed up, andStardivernext toGeirskogul

My strange HB for Dragoon
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 Piercing Talon and Battle Litany is a health Pot.

Thought process
- GCDs on face buttons so movement is easier while rolling gcd
- OGCDs put roughly in order of pressing (e.g. lance charge ->Litany -> clockwise following gcd order)
- WXHB and Expanded XHB are shared on Hotbar 2 so I can see the Expanded because double tapping is annoying and 32 slots is plenty for most jobs
- Macro is placeholder for Pot
- Hotbar 3 is for easy switching to during 3+ encounters and so they don't waste space, leaving room to add reminder macros or move anti kb to a face button
- There are 3 free buttons (4 if you remove leg sweep) if you want to add aoe anyway
- Sprint as a macro on the left thumbstick (L3) so you can press it while moving
