Tanking Hotbar/Crossbar Setups

[Martin_Arcainess]

I was actually thinking something like this earlier. I'm levelin my PLD up from 50 and am getting lost when adding new abilities. I'm on PS3 and only use 2 hot bars on my controller so I'm having to throw out abilities to make room.

One of the things I do to conserve space is use the Macro 98 or 99 and set it to either L3 or R3. For me I set Macro 99 to R3 and for that macro it is:

/ac Shield Oath
/ac Sword Oath
This allows you to swap between Sword/Shield oath by the push of 1 button.

I might just upload a video soon showing people about action swaping with macros just to help some people.

Not a bad idea... I use a wireless keyboard because like I said earlier, I'm on PS3 and the keyboard they make you use is ridiculous to use in game. I'll prolly just try to throw some macros or abilities on a key bind and see if that works for me.

My Hotbar 8 (accessed with L2>R2 or R2>L2) has my defensive buffs on them, such as Foresight, Shelltron, etc.
