    SMN Chotbar Setup?

    Been playing as SMN and want to dip my feet in the SCH pool for a little bit.

    Suggestions on a good single cross hotbar set up with pet abilities? (I currently do this for SMN where my chotbar changes based on what pet I have out, so suggestions for both faeries are appreciated). Marco friendly here too.

    Edit: obviously the title of this should be SCH Chotbar setup? but I am a derp.

    I honestly don't see a single hotbar setup working for SCH. I use four myself, I've used up to seven at a point and I think three is a bare minimum.

    I'm playing on PS so it's very difficult to manage more than one (well, for me at least) - I've tried the pet hotbar and it's awkward and the extra hotbar with R2,L2 and L2,R2 is even more awkward...I've got a great set up for SMN but can't seem to find a good one for SCH.

    Currently working around with a 2 hotbar split between offensive & defensive sets.
    I use a 3rd manually selected set which holds the protect, ressurection, swiftcast, pet action Obey & Follow (to toggle micromanaging) that don't need direct access.

    Macro-ed below actions together:
    - 1 Macro for Eye for an Eye & Virus
    - 1 Macro for Ruin & Ruin II
    - 1 Macro with all Dots in a chain (when on Eos hotbar set, for micro-managing)
    - 2 Macros with Dots split into between short duration & long duration, for use with Selene set.
    - 1 Macro for Swiftcast & Surecast (in that order of priority)

    Selene I don't micromanage, so her set frees up a lot of space to put in Miasma II, Sacred Soils and others.
    Which ends up having divided the hotbars between Eos (micromanaged healing) & Selene (offensive).

    Without micromanage & petbar/pet actions, putting Rouse in a macro, I guess it could be possible to put into 1 hotbar =x
    But Eos should really be micro-managed to time her AOE healing.
