RDMRed Mage

Lvl 100 Red Mage XHB made by a ps5 player

Updated for Dawntrail

Buttons consistent for similar job actions (Dye = Potion)

Black is right, white is left. there's still a lot of flexibility here, but this is more or less what works for me

Hotbars for Lv60 Red Mage.

MMO mouse setup with modifiers.

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.

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 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.

I created my chotbars to be comfortable, practical, and aesthetic. 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)

Single Target (L)

Mobs (R)

I have my hotbars set up so that pressing R1 toggles between hotbars 1 and 2, with hotbar 3 as the WXHB.

"1" icon is Aether Compass, "2" icon is Gysahl Greens.

this layout works for levelling from RDM unlock through Dawntrail. main crossbar is your single target spells & burst rotation, and the 2nd has your AOE spells

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

Might change this

RDM as of 6.5

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 :)

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

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

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.

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.

Gain Vice of Thorns. (Uncouple from Embolden. Auto-attack as placeholder.)

Gain Cineration. (Uncouple from Manafication if possible?)

Waiting for the new action images to get added in to fully get this good

Make sure to change Double tap L2 to "Cross Hotbar 4 - Left" and Double tap R2 to "Cross Hotbar 4 - Right"

Endwalker Lvl90 RDM

Valen Bree

made to be used with holding R2+L2 and then dropping R2 to access the OGCDs (flèche, contre sixte) while doing the melee combo

From Bun Boss video

RDM hotbar designed to afford movement on more commonly pressed actions, shifting uncommon actions to directionals. Setup mirrors gauge sides. Intended to work well with the standard RDM 90 Opener.

The VerHotbar

Hotbar 1 (Back)

1: Part 1 Combo

RDM

Loosely based on Bun guides videos, but added missing skills and shifted some for better flow and easy access.

How I set up my crossbars as a red mage on steamdeck (Currently level ~65)

I try to play every classes/jobs, thus I tend to reuse same slots for same "functionality" across jobs.

Red Mage Cross Hotbar setup based from Bun Boss FFXIV on Youtube as of Jul 16, 2022 (except expanded XHB which I regularly access).

For new opener and rotation

I'm a small streamer that loves FFXIV and many other things. The XHBs I publish are solely how I personally like to organize my Hotbars when on the controller! Feel free to use them if you too like them! Some are thrown together and some are planned out.
