"PvP mode" hotbars setup

It will be nice have a "pvp set" of our hotbars, as long as pve and pvp are two different worlds, I'd like being able to setup all my bars for "pvp mode".

Something like gear sets, but made for hotbars ;)

Edit:
or... as we already today can do our setup for each job, making 'job' and "pvp job" two different sets.

It would definitely be convenient. I have macros set up to switch my hotbars between PvE and PvP but having an in-built option would make it heaps easier.

Yep, also have macros to swap between PvE and PvP modes... though they ostly go unused as I don't even PvP much.
It would really be nice to have an in game function for this, though :/

Please direct your attention to hotbar settings, it's already in the game.

I think you had misunderstood what I am requesting. If not please add more meaningful words to your sentences and tell me how I achieve what I asked for, by existant ingame features, apart macros for it.

No, hotbar settings does not do that.

I think it's a bit confusing what you want. For me, it's already working. I use two PVE-only hotbars (controller user) normally. When I'm in a dungeon, I can toggle between those two bars freely. When I'm in a PVP area, I can toggle between two completely different bars which I've configured optimally for PVP situations. Zero macros involved. My extended buttons are used for situational abilities I need in both PVP and PVE.

This is a million times better than the way it used to work where I had a special PVP-only bar with more core skills but had to use various gymnastics in between abilities to switch to the right bar any time I needed to use a non-essential spell.

(I actually have two different gearsets as well, as I prefer different gear when I'm healing in PVE and when I'm PVPing.)

i think Lalaru was asking for something like hotbar binding profiles.
like layout of skill at hotbars.
that would be really handy ^_^

Yep, maybe I were no good on wording correctly what I meant.

To put it simply, when you change job now the skill bars changes to the set for that job, and what I'd like, is being able to have something like that when the job is used for PvP or not. A complete new set to fill the setup for pvp.

Can you please tell me where is it? It maybe had overlook it. PC user, not console.

I mean, it's not hard to actually look in your settings once in a while...

Maybe you missed the "pc user" part. Glad you console users are fine, 'tho.

Are you serious .. that's pc INTERFACEEEEEEE

It is not the pc interface but the controller setup, the image shown above are the controller settings.

But, let it be just an hint on where I have to look for settings, and I had of course: the settings let me setup the hotbars I want be shared across all jobs (that means, if a hotbar is shared, it will not change when I change job), and which ones I want show on the screen.

Summary:
- I don't use controller. I use keyboard/mouse.
- even if I share none of the hotbars, each job have only one and one only hotbars setup
- what I'd like to have, is have different setups for same job, this does not exists today
- I'd like have that because PVP is a completely different use of things than PVE, for the same job you have
- when you change class/job, you are presented a fresh state of the not shared hotbars, that you will setup for the class you are playing: well, I meant the same thing happens if I enter PVP
- what I want, right now can be done only with macros

Then scroll down. You can have these settings just for pvp, that is exactly what you want. Edit: lol its really only for gamepads, but pc users can really set up macros fast so its np anyway...you just ask for some more convenience

I have to many shared hotbars between the classes and still use /hotbar /chotbar copy or /chotbar action name x y macros though.

I would just create your PvE hotbars and put them on like hotbar 3 and 4 , then you create your pvp hotbars on 5 and 6, then you create a /hotbar copy makro like

PvE Mode
/hotbar copy warrior 3 current 1
/hotbar copy warrior 4 current 2

PvP Mode
/hotbar copy warrior 5 current 1
/hotbar copy warrior 6 current 2

in the setting you hide hotbars 3-6 then you still have 7,8,9 and 10 for additional stuff. I think that should be enough or? Even if you need 3 hotbars for each mode you sitll have 2 hotbars left.

I didn't know that the PVP settings were pad-only. Keyboard users should get something similar, or be able to remap button bindings when they switch between different HUD configurations (I presume they can't).

I'm using all of my hotbars so assigning dedicated PvP bars is not an option for me personally, so I understand the sentiment and wanted something similar for a long time..... not that I PvP or even FF very actively at the moment, but still.

What he said. It's there, but its awkward as hell to use. Basically, you have hotbars 1-10, for every single job AND base class from marauder to astrologian (plus shared). Unless you regularly run as pugilist and lancer, you arent using all of them. You can assign things to those hotbars you arent using, and use the "/hotbar copy" macro command to switch between your ghetto-grade "presets". Works, but its a silly, non-intuitive, workaround and should have gotten a QOL upgrade by now

Never tried that pvp hotbar setting since I only have one skill set

So wanna ask, can pvp hotbar setting restore the cross class skills?
ast/sch needs a space for stance in pve

what are your reasons for behaving like two cunts towards this noble, polite individual asking for enlightenment?
go and suck on your moms tits so that your replies may be more polite and elegant in the future.

I would ask you what your reason is for being so rude in your response to them? Perhaps they weren't completely nice about it (looking back, they flatly gave the answer at first, which seems fine to me), but a lot of what you said is pretty uncalled for.

I'm more curious about digging through to find a thread that hasn't been posted in for 6 months.

Oh wow yeah and for the first post too? I didn't even notice the date on that page.

Besides being an old thread, it also is now outdated, because with the new pvp system, the "pvp mode" hotbars setup is now reality.
