Need More Crossbars to Setup

Hello

I'm a PS4 player and I'm wondering if it's possible to have more then 8 crossbars setup somehow? I have one set up for pvp and the rest are all set up for a specific job.

I'm just trying to think about in the future when I get the new expansion, I won't have anymore corssbars setup to save skills for any new jobs. Only way I can see I can do anything is to delete all the skills on a cross bar for one Job so I can set new job skills to it. And if I ever want to go back and play that old job again, I'll have to do the same thing and delete the old and reset the new. And if I want to go back to the previous job...well..you get the idea.

If there isn't a way to have more than 8, is there a way to have a crossbar appear whenever I switch classes? I have like 20 different equipment setups for various jobs already saved.

What?

When you switch jobs you are automatically given a new Bar 1 and Bar 2...

I might not be understanding correctly, but all 8 crossbars and all 10 hotbars can be set to be either shared between all of your classes, or change when you swap classes.

So, if you check all 8 in character configuration you'll only have 8 crossbars between all of your classes (which sounds like your problem).

However, if you uncheck all 8 then you have the full range of crossbars available for each class (20 classes) and each job (10 jobs), giving you 30*8 = 240 distinct crossbars divided into sets of 8.

In reality you'll probably want to share one or two, but it seems like it should be enough.

Okay I think I get what you're saying. I'm going to check that out as soon as I get home and hopefully it gets me what I want.

All this time I've never noticed this was an issue because it's never come up until now. I wanted to try and level up Ninja but didn't want to go through the hassle of constantly resetting crossbars. :D

Now I'm wondering if there are any other configuration settings I've got all wrong.

Yeah, it should be under Character Configuration --> Hotbar Settings --> Sharing. I use the PC more than the PS4 though, I'm not sure if it's arranged exactly the same.

I play on PS4 and each of the classes I play has it's own set of 8 crossbars. So like suggested abive check your settings.

Also, you can use the /crosshotbar copy command to macro hotbar changes. For example, now that I have Bard I don't actually use Archer, so there's 8 crossbar slots right there. I set up BRD 1 and 2 for PVE, used the command to copy those to ARC 1 and 2, redid BRD 1 and 2 for PVP, copied to ARC 3 and 4... and now my PVE macro copies ARC 1 and 2 to BRD 1 and 2, and my PVP one copies ARC 3 and 4 to BRD 1 and 2. The command works for classes/jobs you're not on at the time, so my PVP and PVE macros swap out crossbars for BRD, SMN, and SCH all at once.
