• Buffs on top. (Ordered according to the optimal rotation)
• Weaponskills in the middle. ("Cross" shape on both sides)
• oGCD attacks below. (Parallel to top oGCD buffs)
• Extras in top corners, sides. (General: `~ 7 , Job: Ins H )
• Role actions on shift. (Prefer AQWRTG but ZXCV available)
• Consumables on alt. (Potion: Alt+W, Tincture: Alt+R) (Companion actions = placeholders)

[Hotbar 2] Left fingers: Ring or Pinky 1 2 3 Tab Q W Ins A `~ Z X C

Display with: [L2]→[R2]  [Cycle Up - Right]
Display with: [R2]→[L2]  [Cycle Up - Left]
Set Selection (Drawn):   [Hotbars 1, 3]

• Clockwise from True Thrust & Potion, hit R2 ⭘🗙⬜︎🛆 in order, double-weaving the R2→L2 ✜ and R2 ✜ abilities after each.
• After R2 🛆, switch hotbars (R1) and loop R2 🛆⭘🗙⬜︎🛆.
• Double-weave evolved R2 ✜ abilities as they become available.
• Weave Wyrmwind Thrust after each second Raiden Thrust; this may be delayed up to Drakesbane to fit nearby buff windows.
• Continue to use Life Surge on Heaven's Thrust or Drakesbane, checking charges at each High Jump to prevent overcapping.
• Continue to weave all other OGCD's every 30/60/120 seconds, as indicated by their cooldowns.

Modified Opener: These bars pair abilities on R2 ✜ by their cooldown durations, to allow easy double-weaving and identification of when they should be pressed.

Spineshatter Dive = Winged Glide

Dragon Sight = Drakesbane

This takes into account the upcoming removal of Spineshatter, so it is used as a placeholder for the non-damaging gap closer. True Thrust is on both sides to cut down on jumping back and forth, and because I had an open spot for it and splatted it right on there

Single Target (L)

Mobs (R)

My personal bar!

Lvl 100 Dragoon XHB made by a ps5 player

this is good. it makes a lot of sense and feeds into the combos. may need to revise it post dawntrail but we'll see what dawntrail brings.

Hotbars for Lv60 Dragoon.

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

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 Spring combo and you need to hit High Jump/Mirage Dive)
  • Also makes it easy to monitor cooldowns (except long-cooldown buffs Lance Charge and Battle Litany) while the expanded hotbar is displayed
• Wyrmwind Thrust on LT since it should usually go with Chaotic Spring combo unless the rotation gets messed up, and Stardiver next to Geirskogul
