    there is way too many skills for the ffxi menu system to work. scrolling through things with long lists suck, thats why ffxi casters needed macros, by the time you scroll through 30 something skills, you will have wasted massive time, especially now that there is no stamina, you will be wasting a lot of dps/actions since its a cooldown based system.

    I dont really remember well how it worked for most mages but you could always reorganize spells in whatever way you wanted... at least I could with blue mage.

    I like the UI. I just wish the menus would refresh quickly. You can click on anything easily with the mouse, no need for any arrow keys or tab-targetting. Only thing you need is Home and WASD and the mouse (and the "c" key to unlock from targets...).

    Also, there IS key mapping available in the game. Go to Config and look for it. I already mapped a bunch of things in (like inventory).

    The macros in this game are awesome, much better than FFXI. They're easy to see with the icons you can set on them and have very broad capabilities.
