As a BLM, Fire III will be place near Fire because I use them often together, Ice won't be used anymore when i have Ice III. I won't use Thunder I when I have thunder II etc... So i move them on a secondary hotbar. Etc...

And there's more. It really depend of the class/Jobs.

I'm only lvl 30 with my paladin, but i have no problem with this class at this moment...
And only change one thing for invoker.
some macros can help a bit

in your case of Ice and Ice III for example :

/ac "Ice III" <t>
/ac "Ice" <t>

when you sync down and have no more access to Ice III you will use Ice.
