Something along the lines of its a bad probliem will look into fixes

Same problem, here. making mistakes when switching bars all the way, I'm using ps3 pad on pc,happening after 2.16

The delay seems directly tied to the same delay in being able to use a GCD ability.

It seems that the same amount of time where you have to wait from your first step of a combo is the same amount of time you can't tap the right bumper (RB) to swap cross hotbar sets. If you wait until your GCD timer is half done, the RB responds immediately, so I'm guessing that the GCD cooldown and the RB tap to switch has somehow been linked. Using the RB + x/y/a/b seems to remain unaffected.

Like others have said - this is a really big issue for people that have gotten used to tapping RB mid-combo to use non GCD abilities & buffs, then tapping back to the combo.

I also noticed a slight delay when opening the Teleport selection window as well, for example I normally do L2+Teleport then just press up to go to Mor Dhona, instead I almost got Teleported to Limsa because the cursor wouldn't move right away like it normally would :l

I hope this is a bug rather than intentional because this is almost game breaking for me. I have to push rb 3 times to switch sets, by which time i've taken lots of unnecessary damage.

Thank god it wasn't a 'working as intended' for the PS4 controller compatibility or something ; ;

I tried doing ifrit and it bugged the hell out of me how i wasn't able to switch hotbars as fast anymore.
We had an issue with auto run too when they added in the L2+R2 crossbar support but I'm so use to toggling.

They better fix this.....

I don't want to have to play with mouse and kb

i have the same issue, cant play properly, changing cross hotbar killed me twice today because i cant use it as fast as i used to and pressed wrong skills.

I'm experiencing the same problem with a Logitech F710 on Windows. Outside of battle everything is as super quick as it's always been, but once in battle, I get delays where R1 doesn't respond when trying to switch hotbars.

I've also noticed that pressing left and right on the d-pad to switch targets, or pressing B to select the nearest target sometimes will not respond.

No problems while I was mining, but for endgame content, this issue is crippling. Please make this an immediate priority!
