L2 + R2 = third cross bar

[Dano]

would be extremely hard to use your skills in a pinch if both of your thumbs are holding down the analog sticks

where there's a will, there's a way

[Kailea_Nagisa]

good lord, a delayed press in the fashion of L2 then R2 would be confusing in a heavy fight, and there is no need. L2+R2 is plenty enough for a third hot bar. People need to learn how to use macros -.-

Has anyone used a PS4 controller on PC yet? :X I use a 360 pad and I'm getting tired of it.

I was just thinking this.

Aren't there already sixteen cross bars? L2 + the face buttons, L2 + D-pad. And the same with the R2 button.

Quoting from another thread that was quoting from another thread

To make the DualShock 4 work 100% on PC, you have to manually edit the FFXIV.cfg file located in My Documents\My Games\Final Fantasy - A Realm Reborn. Make a copy first if you wish, then ctrl+f and replace every instance of "alias" with this code:
Alias {90,91,88,89,41,40,32,33,73,72,48,49,3,2,1,0,4,6,10,5,7,11,9,8}

....
It worked perfectly for me. (no need to install any shady third party bullshit)
And for those PS3 players - just hook the PS4 Controller to Your PS3 and it works like a PS3 controller (no touchpad and PS Button doesnt work - I use the ps button on my keyboard, otherwise You need a regular controller for the PS Button)

[Seraphyna]

And this is why I wish they would have used a controller setup more like Tera's instead of what they have now. It's utterly useless.

Hold down nothing (OMG what a concept!) for the first setup.
Hold R1 for the second.
Hold L1 for the third.

Three full customized setups should be enough for every job. Add in separate crossbars (like I have to do now because have to switch is a pain in the ***) if you need them. They really screwed the pooch on this.

[Aeliott]

Once you get into the habit of doing the R1 + [button] shortcut for anything other than moving to the next page in a cycle it's fine. And honestly L2 + R2 would just confuse me more. You only need to hold R1 for a split second, and doing it mid-GCD is the best way to do it. In fact playing a SMN/SCH (especially the latter) you pretty much have to learn it that way or else slow down your effectiveness. Unless you can very quickly and precisely tap R1 the exact number of times to shuffle to the bar you want.

You can change which skills You scroll through with R1 and wich are ignored in the options.
You can also change the rotation of this for weapon sheathed and drawn seperately.

You could put crossbars with porting, riding, and social emote stuff on Your weapon sheathed rota, while only having combat related stuff on Your weapon drawn rotation.
There is a good youtube video that instructs You how to do so, don't remember the link though, sorry.
