    according to GamerScape:

    Yoshida: We’re not going to be rebuilding it from the ground up. We’re concentrating on two things with this revamp. During 3.x, the action rotation for high DPS became very complex. We saw a large gap form regarding DPS from skilled and technical players and more casual players and so we wanted to bring up the bottom. The second thing is that with FFXIV, lots of players use the controller, with the increase in actions, its hard for them to use all of the actions available. There aren’t enough ways to use these actions so we’re cutting the number of unused actions and combining similar actions to make the lvl 70 action number about the same as it is now
    So judging by this we can "assume" that while we will retain the same number of actions as in HW some skills are seriously gonna be reworked. My guess is Inner Beast/Fell Cleave and Steel Cyclone/Decimate will finally be combined into two buttons with skills being available while in said stances. I would love to see a skill that is an opposite to Unchained while in Deliverance. I'm still gonna main war for sure but the fact that we have the same amount of skills plus the reworking of CC skills and fine tuning while not having to change much of my cross bars has got me excited. Still going SAM dps off spec tho. I think Yoshi was right when he said that tanks and healers will always be their respective jobs but it's nice to see this "refresh" of skills and actions.

    I actually already do this for Warrior and Monk with macros.
    I doubt i could ever have played Monk properly without combining the basic combos like that.
