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)

MMO mouse setup with modifiers.

hotbar 1 is single target bar hotbar 3 is aoe combo stuff

First attempt to make panels for MMO mouse with 2 3x4 hotbars and 1 6x2 for utility

Right side of LT/RT for instant cast actions, to make movement easier. Left side for things with cast timers and Scenic Muse, which has a long cooldown.

RT, RT for actions that are used less frequently (or that I haven't unlocked and don't have a home for yet). LT, LT is the standard layout for my ranged/caster DPS classes.

for each job, I create a "hotbar" that is basically a monitor for cooldowns/any spell/skill I want to see the status of; I also have a hotbar with Role spells & skills, and, Sprint. These are the spells I have for Dawntrail. I use Hotbars 2 & 10 but you can use any Hotbars you want.

For use with 3x4 MMO Mouse Notes: Hotbar 2 is on Shift Hotbar 3 is on CTRL

On Hotbar 3, I have these alternate binds: 8 set to Middle Mouse Click 11 set to SHIFT + Middle Mouse Click 7 set to E 9 set to Q

Hotbar 1, single target. Main raid bar.

Hotbar 2, utility, buffs, repeats Accessed via expanded controls

• Squeezing both triggers

A first run of a layout, influenced by my SMN and RDM layouts. ST on hotbar one, AoE on hotbar 2, other stuff on 3. I usually sit on either hotbar 1 or 2, depending on my needs, and switch between them with the R1 bumper.

Tweaked on 7/28/2024 - I added Rainbow Drip to the main two bars because it has a proc mechanism at times - you need to see that, not have it hidden on third bar!

• for G600 mmo mouse
• addle on f1 and surecast on f3
• combo on same buttons as other classes as not to get confused, also my fingers rest naturally on those buttons
• aoe combos on second bar to match the other jobs
• canvas actions at the top of the first bar
• shield mirrors shield placement on SMN
• might move swiftcast around

PROVISIONAL - NOT LEVELLED OR TESTED

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

Main XHB - Single Target EXHB - AOE Expanded XHB - Utility
