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.

they took away our plunge :(

BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD LILY

Note: I haven't leveled this up to 100 yet.

Hotbar 1: Starting with the single target filler, regen, and DoT on the first row. Next row has the WHM-specific actions. The rest is the same: heal, weak AoE heal (in case of sync-down), esuna, zoomies, weak heal (ONLY for sync-downs that the normal heal isn't there), sprint.

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)

Thanks for the credit distraughtklownz! =)

General notes:

• "Main" hotbar is RT
• 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

Sage-specific notes:

• Sage has lots of single-target vs. AoE abilities, so placement on expanded hotbar mirrors this (Dosis/Dyskrasia, Diagonosis/Prognosis, Taurochole/Kerachole, Druochole/Ixochole, Haima/Panhaima)
• Philosophia placement mirrors that of Soteria (LT vs. LT-LT)
• Krasis on d-pad down to make it easy to cycle down to the tank and target them for it (down, down, RT+down)
  • Remember to adjust your party list job priority!
• Zoe and Pneuma next to each other since they usually get used together
• Eukrasia on WXHB is a macro to turn it off
• Speech button on WXHB is a macro to indicate Swiftcast cooldown (i.e., when I will attempt to res again)

Sage Crossbars | Patch 7.05

General Idea: Top Hot Bar - oGCD cooldowns Right XHB - Damage and minor healing LEFT XHB - Major Healing/ AOE

DT 7.0

Macro Info

1 = Play I Macro
2 = Play II Macro
3 = Play III Macro

This layout focuses healing skills on the LT bars and damaging/buffing skills on the RT bars. Special care is taken to consider how inputs flow into each other. For example, the ally-targeted oGCDs are placed on the D-pad because you will already be using the D-pad to scroll through the party list and select a party member.

Face buttons are more accessible while using the left stick to move, so core GCDs and untargeted actions are placed there, along with Swiftcast and Sprint.

From Bun Boss video

A SMN layout that makes sense for my brain and how I play. Single Target on main, AoE on hotbar 2, which I usually switch to by hitting right bumper (R1) and then staying on that hotbar as needed.

makobit's no-swap ergonomic Red Mage

An easy to use controller layout for Red Mage designed with simplicity and ergonomics in mind. I'll break down some of my decision making below.

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

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 is a dual-set layout. Hotbars 1 & 2 are paired for single-target attacks; 3 & 4 are for AoE attacks.

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!

Work In Progress. Squintina-like PCT panels.

Just tried my best have a good flow that made sense. I put the painting actions on dpad and regular attack actions on face buttons this helped me most to have a good muscle memory flow and have painting and attacks be separated and bounce between them. Also made sure to have all painting actions in the same spot for muscle memory so creature will always be left, weapon bottom center, and scenery is always on the right.

Updated for latest patch

All important combo GCDs and oGCDs are on the face buttons for max mobility while weaving/doing positionals

I tend to put AOEs on the D-pad since they aren’t as important but Viper actually has more AOE GCDs than most jobs, so Pit of Dread (aoe Twinblade starter) was able to get a spot on the R2 + Square since there was real estate.

Easily distinguish between your 'left' and 'right' dual blade combos and your twinblade combos, even making our reawaken phase as simple as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Keybinds: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Q, E, R, T, F, M4, M5 (+ Shift / Ctrl for Hotbars 2/3)

1st: 1,2,3,4,5,Q,E,R,F,C,V,T
2nd: same but shift+

this is so messed up they took our mug and replaced it with a purple fart, then turned it into a cone to make us think it was a good change

on hide, i use the following macro:

/merror off
/micon hide
/statusoff Hidden
/ac Hide

it lets me remove hide when using it to recharge mudra in between packs without needing to select through the entire ui and finding the buff to remove it
